摘要
河口生态系统由于各种人为污染物的增加而受到威胁。在各种污染物中,微塑料(MP)和抗生素在通过食物链运输影响河口生物和人类健康方面发挥着重要作用。在河口,包括病原体在内的微生物通过生物膜的发育在微塑料中定居。河口长期以来一直是MP的家园,是抗生素耐药性基因(ARGs)传播的新中心。由于它们与各种水生生物的持续相互作用,与MP相关的细菌群落最终将为消耗MP的生物提供转移机会。为了了解河口中微塑料和ARGs的存在,有必要进行彻底的审查。这篇综述讨论了MPs和抗生素污染的各种来源,以及ARGs通过MP上形成的生物膜的运输。此外,还对影响河口生物膜形成的因素进行了综述。此外,还讨论了生物膜内微生物种群对ARGs的转运。ARG被输送到食物链中,这将对人类健康构成威胁。因此,对鱼类中抗生素抗性基因的发生进行了讨论。
Abstract
The estuarine ecosystem is under threat due to the addition of different anthropogenic pollutants. Among the various pollutants, microplastics(MPs), and antibiotics play a significant role in affecting estuarine organisms and human health by transport through the food chain. In the estuaries, microorganisms, including pathogens, colonise microplastics by the development of biofilms. Estuaries have long been home to MPs, served as novel hubs for the transmission of Antibiotic Resistance Genes (ARGs). As a result of their continual interactions with a variety of aquatic creatures, MP-associated bacterial communities will eventually present a transfer opportunity to organisms that consume MPs. To comprehend the presence of microplastics and ARGs in the estuaries, a thorough review is necessary. This review discusses the various sources of MPs and antibiotic pollution, as well as the transport of ARGs via biofilm formed on MPs. Furthermore, the factors affecting biofilm formation in estuaries are reviewed. In addition, the transport of ARGs by microbial populations within biofilm is discussed. The ARGs are transported into the food chain, which will be a threat to human health. Hence, the occurrence of antibiotic-resistant genes in fish is discussed.
