| Research Abstract |
Survey on the fate of the antibiotics and antivirals in river basin showed that most of pharmaceuticals are entering into the river bodies through wastewater treatment plants. Ecotoxicity tests using aquatic organisms indicated that antibiotics have higher toxicity to algae among aquatic organisms tested. As for the fate of resistant bacteria in the river basin, ampicillin resistant bacteria were detected at high percentages among bacteria isolated from river samples and ampicillin and sulfamethoxazole resistant bacteria were persistent along the river downstream.
