The interplay between antimicrobial resistance, heavy metal pollution, and the role of microplastics

The interplay between antimicrobial resistance, heavy metal pollution, and the role of microplastics

Environmental pollution with heavy metals (HMs) and microplastics (MPs) could enhance the global health challenge antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Herein, we explore the complicated mechanics of how HMs, MPs, and AMR are interlinked within microbial ecosystems, as well as the co-selection and cross-r...
