Article Synopsis
  • Tailwater-based hydroponics can recycle domestic wastewater but the impact of residual antibiotics like Levofloxacin (LVFX) on plant growth and water quality is not fully understood.
  • Experiments showed that LVFX negatively affected water spinach growth, with the best removal of LVFX occurring after 7 days of water retention, while hydroponic conditions improved microbial diversity and stability.
  • When testing lettuce with actual wastewater and LVFX, activated carbon was the most effective substrate, enhancing plant growth and achieving a high removal rate of LVFX and nitrogen compounds.

Evolutionary events of transmission and reassortment for influenza A viruses were traditionally detected by phylogenetic analysis for influenza viruses' eight gene segments. Because the phylogenetic analysis can be complex, we developed genotype profile method which packaged the phylogenetic algorithms to analyze combination patterns of gene segments and integrated epidemiology knowledge. With the method, the analysis of reassortment and transmission becomes a simple and reliable process that combines genotypes, which is identical for the biological process of the virus.
