The sewage canals of Kolkata, India are substantially polluted by heavily populated human habitats on their banks. This study, for the first time, throws light on the prevalence of antibiotic-resistant pathogens in those canal bank soils. Eighty-three percent of them showed resistance to amoxycillin and cefotaxime. Pathogens of Bagbazar canal soil demonstrated exceptionally high MIC ranges of amoxycillin. Pathogenic bacteria of agricultural furrow soil (AFS) samples from the outskirts of Kolkata were much smaller in number, and showed complete antibiotic sensitivity.
