Additional information

This work was funded by the US Environmental Protection Agency (£410K; R829008) and was among 19 peer-reviewed manuscripts over five years. The manuscript significantly contributed to the awarding of various EPSRC projects (incl. General and unifying concepts for wastewater treatment plant design, £760K, EP/F008473/1; SECURE: Self Conserving Urban Environments, £2.8M, EP/I002154/1). Results showed that sediment and periphyton sampling must be included in all assessments on antibiotic resistance transmission in surface waters, and has been included in exposure-risk guidance in the US and Canada (contact: Dr Ed Topp, Senior Scientist, Agriculture Canada; 0015194571470).
