“…Although specific loss mechanisms were not determined in this study, other studies have reported microbially-mediated degradation or possibly irreversible sorption as mechanisms for observed decreases of antibiotics in soil as a function of time. Half-lives of CTC, TML and LCM in soil are reported as 25, 16, and 9 days, respectively (Albero et al, 2018;Chen et al, 2018;Schlüsener and Bester, 2006). These half-lives can help explain what we observed in our experiments (Fig.…”

Land application of swine manure slurry is a common practice to supplement nutrients to soil for crop production. This practice can introduce antibiotic residues and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) into the environment. Field testing is critical in identifying manure management practices effective in minimizing the environmental impacts of manure-borne antibiotic and ARGs. The objective of this study was to determine how the timing of swine manure application relative to rainfall events impacts the fate and transport of antibiotics and ARGs in surface runoff and manure-amended soil. Swine manure slurry was either broadcast or injected on test plots in the field. A set of three 30-min simulated rainfall events, 24 h apart, were initiated on manured plots 1 day, 1 week, 2 weeks, or 3 weeks after the manure application. Results showed that an interval longer than 2 weeks between application and rainfall often significantly reduced the levels of antibiotics and ARGs tested in runoff with the exception of tet(X). For soil samples from broadcast plots, concentrations of two of the three antibiotics tested (lincomycin and tiamulin) decreased substantially in the first two weeks after manure application. In contrast, concentrations of most of the ARGs tested (tet(Q), tet(X), and erm(A)) in soil did not change significantly during the test period. Information obtained from the study can be beneficial in designing manure management practices and estimating the environmental loading of antibiotics and ARGs resulting from manure application.

“…Usually, once antimicrobials are discharged into the environment, their fate and behavior become influenced by not only their physicochemical properties such as water solubility, volatility, lipophilicity, chemical properties, sorption, and/or sequestration capacities but also climate conditions and soil characteristics such as pH, organic matter content, ionic strength, and cation exchange capacity (Albero, Tadeo, Escario, Miguel, & Pérez, 2018). Other factors include microbial alterations, photo dilapidation, leaching, surface runoff, and plant uptake (Kuppusamy et al, 2018).…”

“…Sorption is the main process that determines the mobility and dispersal of antimicrobials in the environment, which governs the availability of antibiotics for plant uptake as they have to be in an aqueous phase for swift uptake (Albero et al, 2018). Sorption of antibiotics to soil controls the uptake of antibiotics by plants as well as their mobility within the soil environment and is affected by some factors including soil properties, steric configuration, and amphoteric and amphiphilic properties of the antibiotics .…”

The incidence of antibiotic resistance within and beyond the agricultural ecosystem: A concern for public health

2020

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The agricultural ecosystem creates a platform for the development and dissemination of antimicrobial resistance, which is promoted by the indiscriminate use of antibiotics in the veterinary, agricultural, and medical sectors. This results in the selective pressure for the intrinsic and extrinsic development of the antimicrobial resistance phenomenon, especially within the aquaculture‐animal‐manure‐soil‐water‐plant nexus. The existence of antimicrobial resistance in the environment has been well documented in the literature. However, the possible transmission routes of antimicrobial agents, their resistance genes, and naturally selected antibiotic‐resistant bacteria within and between the various niches of the agricultural environment and humans remain poorly understood. This study, therefore, outlines an overview of the discovery and development of commonly used antibiotics; the timeline of resistance development; transmission routes of antimicrobial resistance in the agro‐ecosystem; detection methods of environmental antimicrobial resistance determinants; factors involved in the evolution and transmission of antibiotic resistance in the environment and the agro‐ecosystem; and possible ways to curtail the menace of antimicrobial resistance.

“…Dissipation of compounds could also be enhanced by increased nutrient content and microbial biomass due to manure amendments (Zhang et al, 2017;Shen et al, 2018). In contrast, Albero et al (2018) found that the amendment of soil with composted manure increased half-lives of six veterinary antibiotics (one fluoroquinolone, two tetracyclines, two sulfonamides and one lincosamide) between 6 and 53% likely due to higher sorption of compounds in manured soil and thus reduced availability. Similar effects of organic fertilization (e.g., a sewage sludge, green waste compost and farmyard manure, or composted sewage sludge, respectively) on sulfamethoxazole, its main metabolites N-ac-sulfamethoxazole and ciprofloxacin, or triclosan and carbamazepine was observed by Andriamalala et al (2018) and Shao et al (2018).…”

Soils groups according to basic soils properties and sorption of compounds matched. • Soils groups according to microbial community structure and half-lives corresponded. • Half-lives could be predicted using one microbial criterion and sorption coefficient. • Simultaneous application of all compounds mostly reduced their dissipation in soils. • The average increase in multiple-solute half-lives varied between 7 and 39%.
