  The aim of this preliminary study was to assess the occurrence and molecular diversity of tetracycline and ampicillin resistance genes carried by Escherichia coli present in surface water. Bacterial strains were isolated from two watercourses (the Reda River and the Oliwski Stream) that influence the quality of coastal waters in the Gdańsk Bay (Northern Poland) by direct discharge. The bacterial drug susceptibility, tested against...

  In this study the removal of resistant Enterococcus spp. was evaluated using the laboratory-scale wastewater treatment model plant (M-WWTP), designed as a multiphase (anaerobic, anoxic and aerobic) system (Q = 27 dm3 per day) and continuously supplied with the wastewater obtained from the full-scale WWTP, after grid. The activated sludge from the secondary clarifier was recirculated to the anaerobic chamber (with the ratio equal...
