This is shown by new research from DTU. The researchers are pleased with the findings because they allay the fear that microplastics accumulate in the food chain via copepods.

    There are large geographical differences in both how frequently resistant genes occur and in which types of bacteria the genes are found. This is shown by analyses of sewage from throughout the globe, thus underlining the importance of combating antimicrobial resistance based on data on local conditions.
