Abstract: 

The aim of the study was the detection of potentially pathogenic and anti-biotic resistant bacteria in input and output samples of German biogas plants in order to assess a possible release into the environment. The abundance of potentially pathogenic and antibiotic resistant bacteria was lower in output samples. But, ESBL E. coli and vancomycin resistant enterococci were still culturable from output material. Methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) could not be detected by cultivation, but the mecA gene was also detected in output sample material of biogas plants.
