author keywords: Antimicrobial resistance genes (ARGs); Preservatives; Conjugative transfer; RpoS regulon; SOS response
MeSH headings : Anti-Bacterial Agents / pharmacology; Drug Resistance, Bacterial / genetics; Gene Transfer, Horizontal; Genes, Bacterial; Plasmids
topics (OpenAlex): Pharmaceutical and Antibiotic Environmental Impacts; Antimicrobial agents and applications; Antibiotic Resistance in Bacteria
TL;DR: The results demonstrated that these preservatives (sodium nitrite, sodium benzoate, and triclocarbon), under daily-use concentrations, led to concentration-dependent increases in conjugative transfer, subsequently promoting horizontal transfer of antimicrobial resistance genes (ARGs).
