Abstract(s)
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) spread in surface water systems, providing water for drinking or for recreational activities, can have serious implications to human, animal and environmental health. The standard criteria to assess water quality are based in the absence of specific bacteria, and do not include AMR study. Here we evaluate the spread of AMR bacteria in rivers of North Portugal under diverse anthropogenic activities.
