Correlation of tetracycline and sulfonamide antibiotics with corresponding resistance genes and resistant bacteria in a conventional municipal wastewater treatment plant. (2012, background): “In contrast, biodegradation is much more important for the removal of sulfonamides during activated sludge process in WWTPs (Göbel et al., 2005; Xu et al., 2007).”

(2013, background): “…groups of PPCPs can be found in sludge samples of STPs in China, including antibiotics (ND-21,000 ng g−1 dry weight (dw)) (Gao et al., 2012; Xu et al., 2007a), azole antifungal drugs (ND-1442 ng g−1 (dw)) (Huang et al., 2010, 2012), hormones (1.6–372 ng g−1 (dw)) (Liu et al., 2011b),…”
Tetracycline antibiotics in the environment: a review (2013, background): “According to previous research (Karthikeyan and Meyer 2006; Xu et al. 2007), antibiotic can enter in the aquatic environment through the direct discharge of animal wastewater and the discharge of effluents from wastewater treatment plants.”
