Overview

This review demonstrates that microbial and enzymatic strategies can mitigate water pollution in livestock, highlighting key advances and challenges.

Key Points

  • Microbial and enzymatic strategies can enhance antibiotic biodegradation in manure, reducing environmental risks.
  • Using biocatalysts like hydrolases and transferases shows promise in breaking down antimicrobial resistance genes (ARGs).
  • Integration of enzyme engineering and microbial consortia improves the effectiveness of biodegradation processes.
  • Addressing challenges like incomplete degradation and potential leaching into aquatic systems is crucial for water safety.
