Abstract

The excessive use of antimicrobial agents such as antibiotics and disinfectants for domestic purposes and industries polluted the water bodies severely in the recent past. Thus released antimicrobial agents negatively impact the environment and human health as it induce antimicrobial resistance (AMR...
