Abstract
Fluoroquinolones (FQs) are widely used antibiotics for therapeutic purposes, yet their extensive usage and unwise disposal led to antibiotic resistance as well as their widespread across the environment and becoming a major contaminates in water bodies as the wastewater treatment plants are not capable removing of FQs completely. Knowing the latter, the researchers endeavored to find techniques for the detection and removal of such contaminates from the disposed water from different facilities. This review highlights some of the recently and currently developed techniques for detection and removal. It discusses also different adsorbents used to remove FQs from wastewater. All in all, the removal of such leading contaminates from water would inhibit their spread across different environmental spheres thus promoting better environmental health.
