“…Interestingly, ARGs present in filtrated, disinfected and tap water could encode 9, 11 and 5 types of antibiotic-resistant proteins, respectively. Moreover, the class 1 integronase gene dominated the MGEs in each water sample, and the trend of the presence of integrons was similar to that of ARGs [38].…”

“…Samples of DNA extracted from filtrated, disinfected and tap water were investigated in terms of ARGs presence and the effect of chlorination on their occurrence by Shi et al The blaTEM-1, tetA, tetG, sulI, ermA and ermB genes were present in every sample, while ampC was found only in disinfected and tap water samples, indicating the promotion phenomenon of water treatment and distribution processes on these ARGs. The other gene, aphA2 (encoding resistance to aminoglycoside), seemed to disappear in tap water and three genes: tetB, tetC and drfA17 (encoding resistance to trimethoprim) remained undetected in each sample [38]. Results of qPCR showed that from eight ARGs taken into consideration in the study of Shi et al, the abundance of seven was increased after the chlorination unit.…”

“…To date, there is a plethora of data concerning the presence of ARB in tap water [36,37], but due to the development of molecular biology, insight into ARGs, omitting the cultivation of ARB, becomes a trend [27,38].…”

“…In quantitative studies of ARGs, their abundance is often normalized to eubacterial 16S rRNA present in the sample [38,48]. Samples of DNA extracted from filtrated, disinfected and tap water were investigated in terms of ARGs presence and the effect of chlorination on their occurrence by Shi et al The blaTEM-1, tetA, tetG, sulI, ermA and ermB genes were present in every sample, while ampC was found only in disinfected and tap water samples, indicating the promotion phenomenon of water treatment and distribution processes on these ARGs.…”

“…Studies of Shi et al and Xi et al demonstrated that the chlorination process reduced the abundance of the sul1 gene, but in the same time increases the richness of other genes [38,48]. Other treatment units also may influence ARGs quantity and diversity in drinking water [18,19].…”

Abstract. The study presents a review of the occurrence of genetic determinants of antibiotic resistance in tap water. The aim of this study was also to compare the applied methods for antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) investigations in tap water. As the concentration of ARGs in treated, drinking water is expected to be very low and may cause problems in a standard isolation procedure, the special emphasis is placed on the applied procedures of DNA extraction and their efficiency. The study presents the first attempts to obtain DNA directly from tap water. Further efforts must be put to determine the final amount of obtained DNA and the presence of chosen ARGs among the molecules.

Recent developments in detection and enumeration of waterborne bacteria: a retrospective minireview

et al. 2016

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Waterborne diseases have emerged as global health problems and their rapid and sensitive detection in environmental water samples is of great importance. Bacterial identification and enumeration in water samples is significant as it helps to maintain safe drinking water for public consumption. Culture‐based methods are laborious, time‐consuming, and yield false‐positive results, whereas viable but nonculturable (VBNCs) microorganisms cannot be recovered. Hence, numerous methods have been developed for rapid detection and quantification of waterborne pathogenic bacteria in water. These rapid methods can be classified into nucleic acid‐based, immunology‐based, and biosensor‐based detection methods. This review summarizes the principle and current state of rapid methods for the monitoring and detection of waterborne bacterial pathogens. Rapid methods outlined are polymerase chain reaction (PCR), digital droplet PCR, real‐time PCR, multiplex PCR, DNA microarray, Next‐generation sequencing (pyrosequencing, Illumina technology and genomics), and fluorescence in situ hybridization that are categorized as nucleic acid‐based methods. Enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and immunofluorescence are classified into immunology‐based methods. Optical, electrochemical, and mass‐based biosensors are grouped into biosensor‐based methods. Overall, these methods are sensitive, specific, time‐effective, and important in prevention and diagnosis of waterborne bacterial diseases.
