Abstract
In the RADAR project intitled Selection and dissemination of antibiotic resistance genes from wastewater treatment plants into the aquatic environment and clinical reservoirs (PN-III-P4-ID-PCCF 2016-0114 CONTRACT NO. 10/2018), five Romanian institutions with key scientific and public health assistance roles in the AMR research and surveillance: University of Bucharest as coordinator, National Research and Development Institute for Industrial Ecology, National Institute of Infectious Diseases “Prof. Dr. Matei Balș”, University Politehnica of Bucharest and National Military Medical Institute for Research Development “Cantacuzino“ have joined their complementary expertise in the first nationwide study of the AMR phenomenon using a One Health approach. The RADAR project aimed to evaluate the prevalence and dissemination of AMR from urban, clinical, and industrial wastewater into the aquatic environment via WWTPs and to correlate these results with the environmental and clinical resistome, thus identifying the possible mechanisms of AMR emergence and spread.
