Abstract
⺠Contamination of surface water with antibacterials may induce drug resistant bacteria. ⺠We examined if the electrolysis capable to inactivate 10 groups of antibacterials. ⺠Electrolysis was able to inactivate almost all antibacterials and the mixture. ⺠Cytotoxicity was not detected in any of the electrolyzed solutions. ⺠Electrolysis is considered to be applicable to treat hospital wastewater.
