Metal-containing landfills as a source of antibiotic tolerance
Original language description
To unveil the potential effect of metal presence to antibiotic tolerance proliferation, four sites of surface landfills containing tailings from metal processing in Slovakia (Hn & uacute;& scaron;ta, Hodru & scaron;a, Ko & scaron;ice) and Poland (Tarnowskie G & oacute;ry) were investigated. Tolerance and multitolerance to selected metals (Cu, Ni, Pb, Fe, Zn, Cd) and antibiotics (ampicillin, tetracycline, chloramphenicol, and kanamycin) and interrelationships between them were evaluated. A low bacterial diversity (Shannon-Wiener index from 0.83 to 2.263) was detected in all sampling sites. Gram-positive bacteria, mostly belonging to the phylum Actinobacteria, dominated in three of the four sampling sites. The recorded percentages of tolerant bacterial isolates varied considerably for antibiotics and metals from 0 to 57% and 0.8 to 47%, respectively, among the sampling sites. Tolerances to chloramphenicol (45-57%) and kanamycin (32-45%) were found in three sites. Multitolerance to several metals and antibiotics in the range of 24 to 48% was recorded for three sites. A significant positive correlation (p < 0.05) for the co-occurrence of tolerance to each studied metal and at least one of the antibiotics was observed. Exposure time to the metal (landfill duration) was an important factor for the development of metal-as well as antibiotic-tolerant isolates. The results show that metal-contaminated sites represent a significant threat for human health not only for their toxic effects but also for their pressure to antibiotic tolerance spread in the environment.
