PFAS Impact on Antimicrobial Resistance

This study explores the environmental impact of PFAS on microbial communities and antimicrobial resistance. It highlights PFAS contamination and its role in driving ARG emergence, with detailed findings on specific microorganisms, transcriptional changes, and shifts in community diversity. The research underscores PFAS-induced dominance of Proteobacteria and the genomic presence of ARGs. Concluding with the health implications, it calls for urgent action to mitigate environmental...
