A new study reveals an alarming number of mechanisms throughout the life-cycle of plastic that could enhance or spread ...

A Cross-Sectional Study of Dairy Cattle Metagenomes Reveals Increased Antimicrobial Resistance in Animals Farmed in a Heavy Metal Contaminated Environment. Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020; 11 DOI ...

High prenatal copper exposure resulted in significantly lower microbial diversity at 3 months, although this effect diminished over time. Bacterial taxa also shifted in response to exposures.

Metals, antidepressants, climate change: UB chemist Diana Aga leads $3 million NSF grant to find other causes of antimicrobial resistance Diana Aga, Henry M. Woodburn Chair of Chemistry at the ...

This likely came from natural soil sources and pesticide use. We also examined how bees can help us understand emerging concerns such as the spread of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) genes.

Effects of heavy metals pollution on the co-selection of metal and antibiotic resistance in urban rivers in UK and India. Environmental Pollution, 2022; 306: 119326 DOI: 10.1016/j.envpol.2022.119326 ...

The research, which appears in the journal Microbial Biotechnology, adds weight to earlier findings. Indeed, previous research suggests that because bacteria adapt to heavy metal and radioactive ...

BUFFALO, N.Y. — University at Buffalo chemist Diana Aga has long researched how unchecked antibiotics in wastewater contribute to antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Water treatment plants don’t ...
