Degradation of Meropenem by Heterogeneous Photocatalysis Using TiO<sub>2</sub>/Fiberglass Substrates

Meropenem (MER), a carbapenem, is considered a last-resort antibiotic. Its presence in water bodies, together with other antibiotics, has brought about environmental problems related to the destruction of natural microorganisms and the development of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. Herein, the degrad...
