There is a continuous release of antimicrobials/antibiotics into the aquatic environment due to the overuse of these products on a global scale. The existence and spread of antimicrobials, antimicrobial resistance genes, and antimicrobial-resistant bacteria in aquatic environments have received considerable critical attention due to the possibility of changing bacterial diversity as well as bacterial functions and the development of antibiotic-resistance pathogens in the water source which threatens ecosystem and human health. Since freshwaters include dense active bacterial communities, they are considered hotspots for antimicrobial/antibiotic resistance. In this chapter, the emergence, spread, and impacts of antimicrobial/antibiotic resistance in freshwater sources will be evaluated.
