TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of antibiotics on soil organisms were investigated and significant effects on soil fauna were only determined for anthelmintics and antibiotics of various classes were determined for some species and antibiotics.

TL;DR: It was concluded that pharmaceutical antibiotics can exert a temporary selective pressure on soil microorganisms even at environmentally relevant concentrations.

TL;DR: Modeling and molecular mechanics calculations of antibiotic-SOM complexes showed preferred site-specific sorption via hydrogen bonds and van der Waals interactions, correlated with the sorption data.

TL;DR: Using pig manure amended with different concentrations of sulfadiazine (SDZ), an antibiotic that is frequently used in veterinary medicine, it was possible to affect AOB and AOA to different degrees, indicating functional redundancy between AOA and AOB.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that a single addition ofSDZ has prolonged effects on the microbial community structure in soils, and community structure remained altered even after two months, the extractable concentrations of SDZ decreased exponentially and the remaining solution concentrations after 32 days were ≤27% of the spiking concentration.
