| Title | Antimicrobial Resistance by metaGenomics Overview in a Sewage system |
| Description |
ARGOS is the acronym of: "Antimicrobial Resistance by metaGenomics Overview in a Sewage system". It is a Spanish national research project (PID2023-147830NA-I00) awarded in 2024 to Rafael Laso Pérez in which we aim to use omics' approaches to investigate the distribution and abundance of antimicrobial resistance in wastewater systems, specifically at the Canal de Isabel II. The main objectives of the project are three: - To profile the main antimicrobial resistance genes present in the different locations of a sewage system. - To identify hotspots within the systems where novel forms of resistance are introduced - To evaluate the impact of wastewater treatments plants into the resistome |
