Effects Of Microplastic Biofilms On An Anthropogenically Impacted Suburban Lake, Paris M. Velsaquez
Masters Theses
Plastics have been observed in every location on the planet, and their prevalence in the environment is due in part to their strong resistance to degradation. Inland lakes are susceptible to plastic pollution by highway runoff, which contains plastic fragments of brake pads, car tires, litter, and road paint. These plastics eventually enter freshwater environments and degrade into microplastics (

Antibiotic-Resistant Gram-Negative Bacteria In A Local Wastewater Treatment Plant In North Georgia, 2024 University of North Georgia
Antibiotic-Resistant Gram-Negative Bacteria In A Local Wastewater Treatment Plant In North Georgia, Nou Moua, Lindsay Mccuen, Sarah White, Swapna Bhat, Margi Flood, Jeanelle Morgan
Georgia Journal of Science
Antibiotics are some of the most essential lifesaving drugs currently available to us against infectious diseases. Several pathogens are developing resistance to these drugs and many have become resistant to multiple antibiotics. Such multi-drug resistance is becoming a global issue and has been found in many environments including wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). In this study, we sampled a local WWTP for antibiotic-resistant bacteria. This WWTP is in North Georgia and runs directly into Lake Lanier, which is the main source of drinking water for the Atlanta area as well as a popular spot for water recreation. We obtained treated and …
Multidrug-Resistant Esbl-Producing Escherichia Coli Coexisting With Colistin-Resistance Genes In Pig Farms, Central Thailand, 2024 Chulalongkorn University, College of Public Health Science

The Thai Journal of Veterinary Medicine
The presence of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase and colistin resistance E. coli in food-producing animals is a public health concern. This study was conducted using a rigorous methodology to survey the prevalence of ESBL-producing and colistin-resistant E. coli from pig farms in the central part of Thailand. A total of 519 samples were collected from fecal, feed, and waste in 53 farms located in central Thailand. All samples were inoculated onto selective agar, and species identification was performed using biochemical assays and MAlDI-TOF MS. Antimicrobial susceptibility was determined by broth microdilution, and ESBL production was confirmed by the combination disc diffusion method. …
Time-Transgressive Microbial Diversity In A Tropical Bat Guano Accumulation, Deer Cave, Mulu, Borneo, 2024 Carleton University, Canada
Time-Transgressive Microbial Diversity In A Tropical Bat Guano Accumulation, Deer Cave, Mulu, Borneo, Joyce Lundberg, Donald A. Mcfarlane
International Journal of Speleology
Bat guano accumulations in caves can constitute large deposits of organic material, particularly chitin and its degradation products, that host a diverse microbiome. Previous microbiological studies have not addressed the stratified nature of these deposits in the context of the timeframe of the decomposition process. We present such data (temperature, pH, DNA sampling of eight carbon-dated strata) for a 75 cm-deep tropical guano accumulation that undergoes complete decomposition over a timescale of ~120 years. The aerobic, surface layer of freshly-fallen guano has the greatest diversity of taxa, with Bacteroidota co-dominant with Pseudomonadota, and includes many taxa unique to this …
Observing The Response Of The Caspian Sea Microbiome To Crude Oil Amendment Under Oxic And Hypoxic Conditions, 2024 University of Tennessee, Knoxville
Observing The Response Of The Caspian Sea Microbiome To Crude Oil Amendment Under Oxic And Hypoxic Conditions, Zabrenna Georgiana Griffiths
Doctoral Dissertations
The Caspian Sea is the world’s largest landlocked saline lake positioned between Europe and Asia and for its historic and large-scale oil reserves. These vast oil reserves have led to the development of an intricate network of pipelines, and drilling operations causing the environmental deterioration of the waterbody. Drainage from surrounding river basins brings an influx of pollutants from residential, industrial and agricultural origins which further compounds this issue. The endorheic nature of this waterbody causes the retention and accumulation of these pollutants, ultimately reducing water quality.
The increased nutrient input has steadily intensified eutrophication in this waterbody resulting in …
