Graphene Quantum Dots
In article number 2301177, Yanzheng Gao and co‐workers discover that graphene quantum dots (GQDs) may enlarge the spread risks of antibiotic resistance at relatively low concentrations, which is also regulated by the surface functionality of GQDs. However, the enlargement weakens when GQD concentrations further increase.
Graphene quantum dots (GQDs) coexist with antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in the environment. Whether GQDs influence ARG spread needs investigation, since the resulting development of multidrug‐resistant pathogens would threaten human health. This study investigates the effect of GQDs on the horizontal transfer of extracellular ARGs (i.e., transformation, a pivotal way that ARGs spread) mediated...
Background Pit latrine operational management and sludge accumulation rate, presents a challenging sanitation problem in low-income urban settlements. However, these challenges have been under-researched. This study was carried out between December 2014 and September 2015 in Nakuru, Kenya. Its objectives were to determine pit latrine management activities and content accumulation rates. Methods...
