The objective of this study was to examine the residue elimination patterns of seven antibiotics in the eggs of Taihang chickens under free-range conditions and develop suitable withdrawal times (WDTs). A total of 240 healthy Taihang chickens, aged 180 days, were randomly divided into eight groups of 30 birds each. The first seven groups were administered oxytetracycline, chlortetracycline, erythromycin, tylosin, tylvalosin, lincomycin, and tiamulin, respectively, in accordance with the maximum dosages and longest durations of treatment recommended by the Veterinary Pharmacopoeia of the People's Republic of China.

The principal constituent of liquorice root () is glycyrrhizin, a triterpene saponin that is approximately many times sweeter than sucrose, the main active component. This study aimed to investigate the dietary liquorice root powder (LRP) on production performance, serum biochemical, gut health and carcass characteristics of Kadaknath (KN) birds as replacement of antibiotic growth promoter. Day-old Kadaknath chicks (n = 240) with uniform body weight were selected randomly and divided into six different treatments, each one with five replicates and eight birds per replicate, and raised in battery brooder cages for 15 weeks.

Photocatalysis is an effective method for removing tetracycline antibiotics, which are important precursors to the potential carcinogen N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA). Herein, a BiOCl/ZnInS heterojunction was successfully synthesized using a simple hydrothermal method. This heterojunction was applied for the first time to degrade various tetracycline antibiotics and reduce NDMA formation potential (NDMA-FP) under visible-light irradiation.

Antibiotic resistance is a global health problem driven by the irrational use of antibiotics in different areas (such as agriculture, animal farming, and human healthcare). Sub-lethal concentrations of antibiotic residues impose selective pressure on environmental, plant-associated, and human microbiome leading to the emergence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria (ARB). This review summarizes all sources of antibiotic resistance in agricultural soils (including manure, sewage sludge, wastewater, hospitals/pharmaceutical industry, and bioinoculants).
