Potential risks of antibiotic resistant bacteria and genes in bioremediation of petroleum hydrocarbon contaminated soils

Environ. Sci.: Processes Impacts, 2020, Advance Article DOI: 10.1039/C9EM00606K, FrontierColin J. Cunningham, Maria S. Kuyukina, Irena B. Ivshina, Alexandr I. Konev, Tatyana A. Peshkur, Charles W. Knapp The problems associated with potential risks of antibiotic resistance spreading during bioremediation of oil-contaminated soil are discussed. Careful selection of bacterial strains and pretreatment of organic wastes used as fertilizers are suggested. To cite this article before page numbers are assigned, use the DOI form of citation above.
