Description

Award of contract for Antimicrobial Resistance in the Environment: Bioaerosols

Total Quantity or Scope

To date the limited work looking at the sources, distribution, and pathways of AMR in the environment has been focused predominantly on aquatic and/ or terrestrial systems, neglecting the atmospheric microbiome. However, it is clear that there are potential sources and pathways for AMR to reach a range of possible receptors including some that represent airborne risks. Hence, we need to investigate the atmospheric components of the environmental microbiome in relation to AMR. We have recently completed a review of methods and assessment options for environmental antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in airborne microorganisms as well as a survey of antifungal residues applied as biosolids to land.
