Researchers believe that the stretch of 2,500 km long river contains microbes that may promote ‘antibiotic resistance’.
The central government has recently sanctioned Rs. 9.3 cr for conducting studies to review microbial diversity along the entire length of the Ganges. Researchers believe the 2,500-kilometre-long river stretch contains germs that can promote 'antibiotic resistance'.'
The objective of this study is to recognize ‘threats to human life’ from antibiotic resistance. The study will also try to find out sources of various kinds of bacteria present in the guts of animals which is called Escherichia Coli.
