Magnetization and ZIF-67 modification of Aspergillus flavus biomass for tetracycline removal from aqueous solutions: A stable and efficient composite
Environ Res. 2024 Apr 12:118931. doi: 10.1016/j.envres.2024.118931. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTIn the present work, the biomass of Aspergillus flavus (AF) was modified using magnetic nanoparticles MnFe2O4 and metal-organic framework of ZIF-67, and its ability to remove tetracycline antibiotic (TCH) was investigated. With the help of physicochemical tests, AF biomass modification with ZIF-67 and MnFe2O4 magnetic nanoparticles was confirmed. Based on the BET value, AF-MnFe2O4-ZIF-67 (139.83 m2/g) has a higher surface value than AF (0.786 m2/g) and AF/MnFe2O4 (17.504 m2/g). Also, the magnetic saturation value revealed that...

A novel BiOBr/rGO photocatalysts for degradation of organic and antibiotic pollutants under visible light irradiation: Tetracycline degradation pathways, kinetics, and mechanism insight
In this study, the BiOBr/rGO nanocomposite photocatalysts are fabricated by a facile solvothermal method. The BiOBr growth on reduced graphene oxide (rGO) sheet could improve BiOBr's photocatalytic activity by increasing its adsorption ability, surface area, and charge carriers' separation efficiency. The prepared nanocomposites were characterized by XRD, Raman, FESEM, EDS, XPS, and UV-visible DRS. The BiOBr/rGO (BRG) nanocomposites showed improved photocatalytic activity for the photodegradation of Rhodamine B (RhB) dye and Tetracycline (TC) under visible light irradiation. Rhodamine B and tetracycline degradation efficie...

Typical antibiotic resistance genes and their association with driving factors in the coastal areas of Yangtze River Estuary
In this study, surface water samples were collected at eight sampling sites along the Yangtze River Estuary. The seasonal and spatial distribution patterns of 10 antibiotics and target genes in two major classes (sulfonamides and tetracyclines) were analyzed. The findings indicated a high prevalence of sulfonamide and tetracycline resistance genes along the Yangtze River Estuary. Kruskal-Wallis analysis revealed significant seasonal variations in the abundance of all target genes. The accumulation of antibiotic resistance genes in the coastal area of the Yangtze River Estuary can be attributed to the influence of urban ins...

Veterinary antibiotics differ in phytotoxicity on oilseed rape grown over a wide range of concentrations
Chemosphere. 2024 Apr 10:141977. doi: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2024.141977. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTResidues of veterinary antibiotics are a worldwide problem of increasing concern due to their persistence and diverse negative effects on organisms, including crops, and limited understanding of their phytotoxicity. Therefore, this study aimed to compare the phytotoxic effects of veterinary antibiotics tetracycline (TC) and ciprofloxacin (CIP) applied in a wide range of concentrations on model plant oilseed rape (Brassica napus). Overall phytotoxicity of 1-500 mg kg-1 of TC and CIP was investigated based on morphological,...

Crucifer Lesion-Associated Xanthomonas Strains Show Multi-Resistance to Heavy Metals and Antibiotics
In this study, multi-resistance to heavy metals and antibiotics were evaluated in local Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris (Xcc) and co-isolated Xanthomonas melonis (Xmel) strains from infected crucifer plants in Trinidad. Resistance to cobalt, cadmium, zinc, copper, and arsenic (V) was observed in both Xanthomonas species up to 25 mM. Heavy metal resistance (HMR) genes were found on a small plasmid-derived locus with ~ 90% similarity to a Stenotrophomonas spp. chromosomal locus and a X. perforans pLH3.1 plasmid. The co-occurrence of mobile elements in these regions implies their organization on a composite transposon-l...
