Tong Zhang mostly deals with Microbiology, Sewage treatment, Activated sludge, Antibiotic resistance and Biotechnology. His Microbiology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Food science and Proteobacteria, Microbial population biology, 16S ribosomal RNA, Bacteria. His Sewage treatment study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Sewage, Cefalexin, Pyrosequencing, Wastewater and Chromatography.

His Activated sludge research includes elements of Ribosomal RNA, Ecology, Effluent and Bioreactor. Tong Zhang combines subjects such as Water treatment, Water chlorination, Drug resistance and Metagenomics with his study of Antibiotic resistance. His Metagenomics research includes themes of Tetracycline, Genetic Databases and Mobile genetic elements.

His most cited work include:

  • 454 Pyrosequencing reveals bacterial diversity of activated sludge from 14 sewage treatment plants (760 citations)
  • Antibiotic resistance genes in water environment. (581 citations)
  • Biodegradation and Adsorption of Antibiotics in the Activated Sludge Process (508 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Tong Zhang mainly investigates Microbiology, Metagenomics, Bacteria, Activated sludge and Antibiotic resistance. His work deals with themes such as Thermophile, Food science, 16S ribosomal RNA, Biofilm and Environmental chemistry, which intersect with Microbiology. His study in Metagenomics is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Resistome, Biotechnology and Microbial population biology.
