Antibiotics: environmental impact and degradation techniques
(İdris Karagöz, 2024) Bulut, Duygu Takanoğlu; Kuran, Özkur; Koluman, Ahmet
Our reliance on antibiotics, life-saving medications that combat bacterial infections, has inadvertently introduced them into the environment. This paper explores the environmental consequences of this unintended release, focusing on the persistence of antibiotics and their disruption of ecological balance. We delve into the rise of antibiotic-resistant bacteria as a major public health concern linked to this environmental contamination. Recognizing the limitations of existing degradation techniques, the paper emphasizes the need for innovative solutions. We explore the potential of novel materials like engineered nanoparticles and biochar alongside investigating unconventional degradation mechanisms found in extreme environments. Ultimately, the paper underscores the importance of collaborative research efforts and the development of sustainable solutions to mitigate the environmental impact of antibiotics and safeguard the future effectiveness of these critical medications.
