The research combines microbial genetics with environmental microbiology to address complex issues in water quality that directly impact human health. The research project has two specific objectives: 1). Define best practices for integrating MST tools into an irrigation water quality monitoring toolbox to protect fresh produce from pathogen contamination during production, thereby benefiting agricultural users who rely on high quality water to assure food safety. 2). Investigate the proliferation of antibiotic resistance plasmids in urban wastewater treatment plants and on-farm manure management facilities and measure the affects of waste management on the dissemination of antibiotic resistance plasmids into the environment.

该研究将微生物遗传学与环境微生物学相结合，以解决直接影响人类健康的水质复杂问题。该研究项目有两个具体目标： 1）。定义将MST工具集成到灌溉水质监测工具箱中的最佳实践，以保护新鲜农产品在生产过程中免受病原体污染，从而使依赖高质量水的农业用户受益，以确保食品安全。 2）的情况。调查城市污水处理厂和农场粪便管理设施中抗生素耐药性质粒的增殖情况，并衡量废物管理对抗生素耐药性质粒向环境传播的影响。
