“…In a study performed in China, researchers identifified a total of 58 antibiotics in drinking water and 49 in food samples, estimating a probabe daily intake of about 310,200 and 130 ng/kg-bodyweight in children, teeneagers and adults, with a maximum of 1400. 970 and 530 ng/kg-bw/day [54]. Their presence in food can cause mild to adverse complications that can be divided into (1) direct toxicity and allergic reactions, and (2) resistance to antibiotics [55].…”

Antibiotic resistance (ABR) is concerning issue due to its direct and indirect repercusions on public health, since decreased therapeutic effect of certain antibiotic to treatment complications that can cause death. There are several mechanism as to how ABR can be transferred from one microoorganisms to another, and many of them are dependant many environmental factors. The food supply chain is a environment in which ABR gene transfer can occur is multiple pathways, which generate concerns regarding food safety. Here, we summarize relevant mechanisms which are implied in ABR in food supply chain but also we are addressing routes of transmission and prevalence of ABR, implications on public health, and the application of new alternatives to antibiotics such as antimicrobial peptides, mainly bacteriocins, in order to countermeasure ABR.

“…With rapid economic growth and urbanization, most of the over 300 small streams and tributaries in Shenzhen have been severely polluted by organic and heavy metal contaminants. The work of my research group has focused on antibiotics, an emerging contaminant whose occurrence, fate, and transport has not been widely investigated but nevertheless poses potentially high risks to the environment and human health through dietary exposure and antibiotic resistance (see Figure 4) (e.g., Ben et al, 2019Ben et al, , 2022Qiu et al, 2019Qiu et al, , 2022.…”

This manuscript is based on a personal reflection entitled “A Fellow Speaks: The Winding Road of a Hydrogeologist,” which was featured in the AGU Hydrology Section's newsletter, after I was elected an AGU fellow in the 2019 class. The manuscript describes, in chronological order, the trajectory of my career development from a “narrowly focused” hydrogeologist to a broadly defined hydrologic scientist. My personal career evolution coincides with the emergence of groundwater as a critically important field of science with great societal impact, as water scarcity, environmental pollution, and ecological deterioration became increasingly dire since the 1960s. The manuscript then concludes with some personal perspectives on the multidisciplinary future of groundwater science and its fundamental role in sustaining clean water supplies for people and the ecosystem in a changing world.

Global demand for safe and sustainable water supplies necessitates a better understanding of contaminant exposures in potential reuse waters. In this study, we compared exposures and load contributions to surface water from the discharge of three reuse waters (wastewater effluent, urban stormwater, and agricultural runoff). Results document substantial and varying organic-chemical contribution to surface water from effluent discharges (e.g., disinfection byproducts [DBP], prescription pharmaceuticals, industrial/household chemicals), urban stormwater (e.g., polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, pesticides, nonprescription pharmaceuticals), and agricultural runoff (e.g., pesticides). Excluding DBPs, episodic storm-event organic concentrations and loads from urban stormwater were comparable to and often exceeded those of daily wastewater-effluent discharges. We also assessed if wastewater-effluent irrigation to corn resulted in measurable effects on organic-chemical concentrations in rain-induced agricultural runoff and harvested feedstock. Overall, the target-organic load of 491 g from wastewater-effluent irrigation to the study corn field during the 2019 growing season did not produce substantial dissolved organic-contaminant contributions in subsequent rain-induced runoff events. Out of the 140 detected organics in source wastewater-effluent irrigation, only imidacloprid and estrone had concentrations that resulted in observable differences between rain-induced agricultural runoff from the effluent-irrigated and nonirrigated corn fields. Analyses of pharmaceuticals and per-/polyfluoroalkyl substances in at-harvest corn-plant samples detected two prescription antibiotics, norfloxacin and ciprofloxacin, at concentrations of 36 and 70 ng/g, respectively, in effluent-irrigated corn-plant samples; no contaminants were detected in noneffluent irrigated corn-plant samples.
