Sewage Surveillance Might Be a Powerful Tool to Fight Antimicrobial Resistance, New Study Reveals
Sewage surveillance is emerging as a crucial method in combating antimicrobial resistance (AMR), according to new research from Virginia Tech. Published in Nature Water, the study demonstrates that monitoring wastewater provides a more efficient and comprehensive approach to tracking antibiotic-resistant bacteria than testing individuals. This meth...

New Delhi 'Superbug' Gene, Last Among Pristine Ecosystem, Found In Arctic
In a significant find in the global spread of multi-drug resistant (MDR) bacteria, scientists have found a "superbug" gene -- first detected in New Delhi over a decade back -- in one of the last "pristine" places on Earth that is some 12,870 km away
