Environmental Antimicrobial Resistance: A Complete Handbook provides a comprehensive exploration of the challenges and solutions related to antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in the environment. This book addresses global scenarios, sources of antimicrobial drugs, and the fate and transport of these drugs in the environment and living organisms. It explains the approach, protocols, and experiments for detecting and mitigating antimicrobial resistance phenomena, making it an essential resource for understanding and combating AMR. Additional sections highlight the silent pandemic of AMR, emphasizing the mismanagement of antimicrobials in humans and animals as key contributors.

Finally, the book discusses global impacts, including the economic burden on low- and middle-income countries and the efforts of the WHO Global Antimicrobial Resistance and Use Surveillance System (GLASS). With a systematic approach, it provides researchers and academicians with routine and advanced knowledge in the field of environmental antimicrobial resistance, including detection and mitigation strategies. This handbook is designed to meet the educational needs of students and professionals in the life sciences, environmental science, microbiology, and pharmacy. It offers comprehensive coverage of the current status, reasons for emerging drug-resistant microorganisms, and solutions for mitigating environmental antimicrobial resistance.
