The project investigates free extracellular DNA in water and soil, focusing on its role in spreading antibiotic resistance genes from environmental sources to bacteria. By understanding these processes, it aims to improve wastewater treatment practices and address the growing challenge of antibiotic resistance in human…
Free extracellular DNA (FED) is DNA dissolved in waters and in soils, where it arrives after being excreted by livingorganisms or following the disruption of living cells. FED can be the most prominent fraction of DNA in waters subjected tostrong disturbances, where the mortality rate of microorganisms is high, e.g. wastewater treatment plants effluents. FED arecomposed by a variety of DNA fragments including resistance genes and mobile elements.
There are early evidences thanFED can represent a…
