“…As-resistant microorganisms are referred to multiple genus including Bacillus, Klebsiella, Acinetobacter, Pseudomonas, Comamonas, Enterobacter (Chitpirom, et al, 2009), Campylobacter (Wang, et al, 2009), Leptospirillum (Tuffin et al, 2006), Aeromonas, Aureobacterium, Escherichia, Micrococcus, Rhodococcus, and Stenotrophomonas (Anderson and Cook, 2004;Clausen, 2000). Among these microorganisms, a well known efflux-based resistance mechanism is attributed to the presence of As resistance genes, such as arsR, arsA, arsB, arsC, arsD, arsH, arsM, and TnLfArs.…”
