| Summary: | The abundance of antibiotic-resistant bacteria in the prawn pond effluents can substantially impact the natural
environment. The settlement ponds, which are the most common treatment method for farms wastewater, might
effectively reduce the suspended solids and organic matter. However, the method is insufficient for bacterial
inactivation. The current paper seeks to highlight the environmental issue associated with the distribution of
antibiotic resistant bacteria (ARB) from prawn farm wastewater and their impact on the microbial complex
community in the surface water which receiving these wastes. The inactivation of antibiotic-resistant bacteria in
prawn wastewater is strongly recommended because the presence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria in the envi�ronment causes water pollution and public health issues. The nanoparticles are more efficient for bacterial
inactivation. They are widely accepted due to their high chemical and mechanical stability, broad spectrum of
radiation absorption, high catalytic activity, and high antimicrobial activity. Many studies have examined the use
of fungi or plants extract to synthesis zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs). It is evident from recent papers in the
literature that green synthesized ZnO NPs from microbes and plant extracts are non-toxic and effective. ZnO NPs
inactivate the bacterial cells as a function for releasing reactive oxygen species (ROS) and zinc ions. The inac�tivation of antibiotic-resistant bacteria tends to be more than 90% which exhibit strong antimicrobial behavior
against bacterial species. |
