Relative abundance of bacteria. Taxonomic profiling of the 16 s rRNA amplicon was performed from colonies that showed antibiotic resistance. Colonies were isolated from healthy and stage 3 CKD subjects and compared in the presence of arsenic, lead, and antibiotics (ampicillin, cefazolin, ceftazidime, ciprofloxacin, and gentamicin) with general or multi-resistance. The abundance of each sample was performed by read count analysis of the phylum (A) and genus (B). C beta-diversity was determined by principal component analysis (PCA) and results sorted by OTUs > 0.2%. Experimental groups are indicated by color and shape, arsenic (green) and lead (orange), healthy subject (triangle) or CKD patients (circle)
