Marano, Roberto B. M.; Fernandes, Telma; Manaia, Célia M.; Nunes, Olga; Morrison, Donald; Berendonk, Thomas U.; Kreuzinger, Norbert; Tenson, TanelThe World Health Organization Global Action Plan recommends integrated surveillance programs as crucial strategies for monitoring antibiotic resistance. Although several national surveillance programs are in place for clinical and veterinary settings, no such schemes exist for monitoring antibiotic-resistant bacteria in the environment. In this transnational study, we developed, validated, and tested a low-cost...
Antibiotic resistance in the environment: expert perspectives
Manaia, Célia M.; Graham, David; Topp, Edward; Martinez, José Luis; Collignon, Peter; Gaze, William H.Antibiotic resistance is considered by different international organisations (e.g. World Health Organization, WHO; Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, FAO-UN; Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development, OECD) as not only a major threat to human life and wellbeing but also having tremendous economic impacts. Recent estimates indicate that globally at least 700,000 deaths per year...

Antibiotic resistance genes in the human-impacted environment: a one health per...
Tiedje, James M.; Wang, Fang; Manaia, Célia M.; Virta, Marko; Sheng, Hongjie; Ma, Liping; Zhang, Tong; Topp, EdwardAntibiotic resistance and its environmental component are gaining more attention as part of combating the growing healthcare crisis. The One Health framework, promulgated by many global health agencies, recognizes that antimicrobial resistance is a truly inter-domain problem in which human health, animal agriculture, and the environment are the core and interrelated components. This prospectus presents the stat...
Critical knowledge gaps and research needs related to the environmental dimensi...
Larsson, D. G. Joakim; Andremont, Antoine; Bengtsson-Palme, Johan; Brandt, Kristian Koefoed; Husman, Ana Maria de Roda; Fagerstedt, Patriq; Fick, JerkerThere is growing understanding that the environment plays an important role both in the transmission of antibiotic resistant pathogens and in their evolution. Accordingly, researchers and stakeholders world-wide seek to further explore the mechanisms and drivers involved, quantify risks and identify suitable interventions. There is a clear value in establishing research needs and coordinating efforts within and...
