Worlds highest drug levels entering India stream

Posted by drhein 1605 days ago in Water Quality from http://www.washingtonpost.com

When researchers analyzed vials of treated wastewater taken from a plant where about 90 Indian drug factories dump their residues, they were shocked. Enough of a single, powerful antibiotic was being spewed into one stream each day to treat every person in a city of 90,000.

And it wasn't just ciprofloxacin being detected.
