Livestock excrement is a major pollutant yielded from husbandry and it has been constantly imported into various related environments. Livestock excrement comprises a variety of microorganisms including certain units with health risks and these microorganisms are transferred synchronically during the management and utilization processes of livestock excrement. The livestock excrement microbiome is extensively affecting the microbiome of humans and the relevant environments and it could be altered by related environmental factors as well. The zoonotic microorganisms, extremely zoonotic pathogens, and antibiotic-resistant microorganisms are posing threats to human health and environmental safety. In this review, we highlight the main feature of the microbiome of livestock excrement and elucidate the composition and structure of the repertoire of microbes, how these microbes transfer from different spots, and they then affect the microbiomes of related habitants as a whole. Overall, the environmental problems caused by the microbiome of livestock excrement and the potential risks it may cause are summarized from the microbial perspective and the strategies for prediction, prevention, and management are discussed so as to provide a reference for further studies regarding potential microbial risks of livestock excrement microbes.

Facing the combined pollution of antibiotics and heavy metals caused by livestock excrement and industrial effluents, how to use microbial technology to remove these pollutants simultaneously is an important research topic in environmental remediation. In addition, quick separation of the bacteria-water after remediation is also an urgent problem. In this study, we gradually developed a dual-bacteria microbial treatment technology capable of removing Pb(Ⅱ), Cd(Ⅱ) and common antibiotics, as well as self-settling after treatment.

This study investigated the presence of culturable bacterial pathogens, and antibiotic resistance and associated genes (quantitative PCR) in commercially available composted products from animal excrements or manure (n = 7), urban wastes (n = 1) or (sewage sludge) (n = 1). Metals quantification and 16S rRNA-based bacterial community composition analyses supported the results to infer potential risks to downstream environments (e.g.

Litter decomposition is critical for maintaining productivity and nutrient cycling in forest ecosystems. Large herbivores play an essential role in determining the processes of nutrient cycling. Asian temperate forests are becoming degraded and fragmented by the widespread intensification of anthropogenic activities, including excessive livestock grazing.

Fluorescence tracing, known for its precision, rapid application, and cost-effectiveness, faces challenges due to the microbial degradation of dissolved organic matter (DOM) in aquatic environments, altering its original spectral fingerprint. This study conducted a 15-day microcosm experiment to examine the effects of biodegradation on the spectral properties of DOM from various sources: livestock excrement (EXC), urban sewage (URB), industrial wastewater (IND), and riparian topsoil (tDOM). Our findings show that while the spectral structures of DOM from different sources change during 15 days of microbial degradation, these changes do not overlap or interfere with each other.

Ammonia (NH) acts as a key precursor of the particulate matter, could reduce visibility, deplete stratospheric ozone, and trigger perturbation in ecosystems. Being an agrarian country with a large livestock population and uncontrolled fertilizer application, India could be accountable as a major stakeholder of global NH emissions. This study developed a comprehensive gridded (0.
