Sewage surveillance is emerging as a crucial method in combating antimicrobial resistance (AMR), according to new research from Virginia Tech. Published in Nature Water, the study demonstrates that monitoring wastewater provides a more efficient and comprehensive approach to tracking antibiotic-resistant bacteria than testing individuals. This method holds particular promise for underserved communities, where access to healthcare is limited, and AMR-related diseases are most prevalent. The research team, led by experts such as Dr. Leigh-Anne Krometis and Dr. Marc Edwards, explored sewage samples from 62 countries and found significant correlations between AMR levels and socioeconomic factors, such as healthcare accessibility. By examining wastewater, public health officials could gain early insights into AMR spread, allowing them to take targeted actions to protect vulnerable populations. This approach could revolutionise AMR monitoring, particularly in rural and low-income areas, where AMR poses a growing threat.

Scientists at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in California are exploring new techniques for creating superheavy elements, focusing on the potential synthesis of “element 120,” also called unbinilium.

The approach offers promise, although creating just two atoms could take weeks. This project marks an important step forward in understanding atomic structures and superheavy elements.

The study provides insights into social behaviours that might have evolved before the emergence of human reputation-based societies.
