Abstract

Pollution by plastics and antibiotics are emerging issues in the areas of the environment and human health. In recent years, several studies have documented the widespread occurrence of plastic particles in various environmental, as well as human, systems, and much research has focused on possible interactions of contaminants with microplastics. Thus, the co-occurrence of plastics and antibiotics has caused another global problem for the environment and human health. Therefore, we focused on the current knowledge in the field of the co-occurrence of plastics and antibiotics to summarize the available studies. In this review, categorization of the topics, contaminants details, such as polymer type, size and source, antibiotic type, and other experimental parameters were summarized and discussed. This study indicated that the sorption of antibiotics on plastics, antibiotic susceptibility in the presence of plastics, and antibiotic resistance gene onto plastics were the most frequently examined categories in this field. Moreover, the variability in the procedures and the processes, and the heterogeneity data of reporting between different studies on similar topic make it difficult to bring all results together and produce a comprehensive picture of the current knowledge. Therefore, it is suggested that further research should be done using this systematic study.

摘要

塑料和抗生素污染是环境和人类健康领域的新问题。近年来，一些研究记录了塑料颗粒在各种环境以及人类系统中的广泛存在，并且许多研究都集中在污染物与微塑料的可能相互作用上。因此，塑料和抗生素的共同出现给环境和人类健康带来了另一个全球性问题。因此，我们专注于塑料和抗生素共存领域的当前知识，以总结可用的研究。在这篇综述中，对主题的分类、污染物的详细信息，如聚合物类型、大小和来源、抗生素类型和其他实验参数进行了总结和讨论。这项研究表明，抗生素在塑料上的吸附、塑料存在下的抗生素敏感性和塑料上的抗生素抗性基因是该领域最常检查的类别。此外，程序和过程的可变性，以及针对相似主题的不同研究报告数据的异质性，使得很难将所有结果汇总在一起，并对当前知识产生全面的了解。因此，建议利用这一系统研究进行进一步的研究。并且关于相似主题的不同研究之间报告的异质性数据使得难以将所有结果汇总在一起并生成当前知识的全面图景。因此，建议利用这一系统研究进行进一步的研究。并且关于相似主题的不同研究之间报告的异质性数据使得难以将所有结果汇总在一起并生成当前知识的全面图景。因此，建议利用这一系统研究进行进一步的研究。
