Abstract: Fluoroquinolone antibiotics are the highly efficient and broad-spectrum antibacterial agents in treating the bacterial infection of human beings and animals, being widely used in clinic because of their good pharmacokinetic characteristics and curative effect. After entering into soil, the residues of fluoroquinolone antibiotics undergo a series of transformation processes such as adsorption, degradation, and plant uptake. This paper summarized the key pollution sources of fluoroquinolone antibiotics in soil and a series of the transformation processes of the antibiotics in soil, such as adsorption, degradation, and plant adsorption and accumulation, and discussed the ecological effects caused by the residue of fluoroquinolone antibiotics in soil, aimed to provide evidence for the prevention and remediation of soil fluoroquinolone pollution.
