- Fate of antibiotics during municipal water recycling treatment processes. (2010, background): “Fluoroquinolones appeared not be readily biodegradable in controlled batch tests (Kummerer et al., 2000).”
- Resistance in the environment. (2004, background): “The results of investigations using test systems indicate that a number of antibiotics and disinfectants are not biodegradable in the aquatic environment.(11,12) In soil, tetracycline concentrations in the range of several hundred micrograms per kilogram have been detected some months after manure a”
