WASTEWATER 2

Caption

Rice University graduate students Esther Lou, left, and Priyanka Ali are dressed for success as they embark upon testing of wastewater samples they collected at a Houston-area treatment plant. The students are co-authors of a study that determined wastewater “snapshots” lead to bias in testing for the presence of antibiotic resistant genes compared to daylong composite samples.
