Degradation of antibiotics in aquaculture wastewater by bio-nanoparticles: A critical review

The environmental pollution caused by antibiotics has seriously affected human health and the ecosystem. Antibiotics have been known as pollutants due to their persistence and adverse impact on aquatic ecosystem. However, critical reviews for antibiotics in the wastewater and the most recent technol...
