Cell-free DNA: A Neglected Source for Antibiotic Resistance Genes Spreading from WWTPs

Cell-associated ARGs in wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) has been concerned, however, cell-free ARGs in WWTPs was rarely studied. In this study, the abundances of four representative ARGs, sulII, tetC, bla PSE‑1 , and ermB, in a large municipal WWTP were investigated in both cell-associated and c...
