Abstract

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a major global topic, concerning the increasing pathogenic tolerance to antibiotics. Antibiotics are becoming less effective over time as microbes develop resistance to their mechanisms of attack. This effect can be accelerated by factors such as inappropriate usage, extensive agricultural use, or long-term exposure to sub-therapeutic concentrations. Therefore, it is important to understand how antibiotics are being prescribed and used within different communities, and how they behave once introduced into the environment.
