Summary Conventional wastewater treatment relies on a complex microbiota; however, much of this community is still to be characterized. To better understand the origin, dynamics and fate of bacteria within a wastewater treatment plant: untreated primary wastewater, activated sludge and post‐treatment effluent were characterized. From 3163 exact sequence variants (ESVs), 860 were annotated to species‐level. In primary wastewater, 28% of ESVs were putative bacterial species previously associated with humans, 14% with animals and 5% as common to the environment. Differential abundance analysis revealed significant relative reductions in ESVs from potentially human‐associated species from primary wastewater to activated sludge, and significant increases in ESVs from species associated with nutrient cycling. Between primary wastewater and effluent, 51% of ESVs from human‐associated species did not significantly differ, and species such as Bacteroides massiliensis and Bacteroides dorei increased. These findings illustrate that activated sludge increased extracellular protease and urease‐producing species, ammonia and nitrite oxidizers, denitrifiers and specific phosphorus accumulators. Although many human‐associated species declined, some persisted in effluent, including strains of potential health or environmental concern. Species‐level microbial assessment may be useful for understanding variation in wastewater treatment efficiency as well as for monitoring the release of microbes into surface water and the wider ecosystem.

“…Abundant Desulfovibrio is the inducer in intestinal pathogenesis, which can induce intestinal epithelial cells abnormal proliferation and metabolism and even impair intestinal barrier function ( Gill et al, 2006 ). The relative abundance of Romboutsia , Butyricimonas , and Parabacteroides in soil significantly enriched with the increasing degree of excrement contamination, which might be dangerous information because these three genera pose a big threat to host health ( Ricaboni et al, 2016 ; Kierzkowska et al, 2018 ; De Donder et al, 2020 ). More than 90% of the yaks in the world live in the plateaus of China (> 3,000 m), facing harsh environmental conditions, especially at calve stage ( Wang et al, 2018 ).…”

The soil microbiome is crucial in determining contemporary realistic conditions for future terrestrial ecological and evolutionary development. However, the precise mechanism between the fecal deposition in livestock grazing and changes in the soil microbiome remains unknown. This is the first in-depth study of bacterial and fungal taxonomic changes of excrement contaminated soils in the plateau (>3,500 m). This suggests the functional shifts towards a harmful-dominated soil microbiome. According to our findings, excrement contamination significantly reduced the soil bacterial and fungal diversity and richness. Furthermore, a continuous decrease in the relative abundance of microorganisms was associated with nutrient cycling, soil pollution purification, and root-soil stability with the increasing degree of excrement contamination. In comparison, soil pathogens were found to have the opposite trend in the scenario, further deteriorating normal soil function and system resilience. Such colonization and succession of the microbiome might provide an important potential theoretical instruction for microbiome-based soil health protection measures in the plateau of China.

Butyricimonas virosa is a Gram-negative bacillus, which was first discovered in rat faeces in 2009. To date, only seven human infections have been reported in literature. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of peritoneal dialysis (PD)-related peritonitis due to B. virosa. A 65-year-old Chinese man presented to the hospital with complaints of dizziness and vomiting. On admission, the drained peritoneal dialysate was cloudy. He was empirically treated as a case of PD-related peritonitis with intraperitoneal (IP) cefazolin, ceftazidime, and gentamicin. B. virosa was isolated from peritoneal fluid sample and the antibiotics were changed to IP imipenem and amikacin. Three weeks after completion of the antibiotics, the patient presented again with cloudy peritoneal dialysate and blood stained diarrhoea. IP imipenem and amikacin were recommenced. Multiple peritoneal dialysate samples were sent to the microbiology laboratory, but this time no microorganism was isolated. Colonoscopy examination revealed the presence of extensive rectosigmoidal ulcerations. IP imipenem was replaced with IP piperacillin-tazobactam when the patient developed imipenem-associated neurotoxicity at Day 9 of treatment. The patient recovered fully after completing 3 weeks of IP piperacillin-tazobactam and 2 weeks of IP amikacin. This is the first reported case of PD-related peritonitis due to B. virosa. Susceptibility data for B. virosa are scarce, but a 3-week course of IP piperacillin-tazobactam, imipenem, or meropenem could be potentially useful in treating PD-related peritonitis caused by this organism.
