Article Synopsis
- - The increasing use of antibiotics has led to environmental pollution, which is difficult to remediate due to low concentrations and the challenges of detecting them.
- - The literature on antibiotic pollution often overlooks how antibiotics interact with soil and plants, particularly how these interactions affect antibiotic absorption and movement in the environment.
- - Key findings suggest that the properties of antibiotics impact their adsorption in soil and uptake by plants, with factors like soil composition and ionic state playing significant roles, highlighting the need for further research in this area.
Recent perspective of antibiotics remediation: A review of the principles, mechanisms, and chemistry controlling remediation from aqueous media.
Sci Total Environ
July 2023
Antibiotic pollution is an ever-growing concern that affects the growth of plants and the well-being of animals and humans. Research on antibiotics remediation from aqueous media has grown over the years and previous reviews have highlighted recent advances in antibiotics remediation technologies, perspectives on antibiotics ecotoxicity, and the development of antibiotic-resistant genes. Nevertheless, the relationship between antibiotics solution chemistry, remediation technology, and the interactions between antibiotics and adsorbents at the molecular level is still elusive.
