Characteristics of biological manganese oxides produced by manganese-oxidizing bacteria H38 and its removal mechanism of oxytetracycline. ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION (BARKING, ESSEX : 1987) 2024; 345:123432. [PMID: 38272171 DOI: 10.1016/j.envpol.2024.123432] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/10/2023] [Revised: 01/15/2024] [Accepted: 01/21/2024] [Indexed: 01/27/2024]
Abstract
Oxytetracycline (OTC) is widely used in clinical medicine and animal husbandry. Residual OTC can affect the normal life activities of microorganisms, animals, and plants and affect human health. Microbial remediation has become a research hotspot in the environmental field. Manganese oxidizing bacteria (MnOB) exist in nature, and the biological manganese oxides (BMO) produced by them have the characteristics of high efficiency, low cost, and environmental friendliness. However, the effect and mechanism of BMO in removing OTC are still unclear. In this study, Bacillus thuringiensis strain H38 of MnOB was obtained, and the conditions for its BMO production were optimized. The optimal conditions were determined as follows: optimal temperature = 35 °C, optimal pH = 7.5, optimal Mn(Ⅱ) initial concentration = 10 mmol/L. The results show that BMO are irregular or massive, mainly containing MnCO3, Mn2O3, and MnO2, with rich functional groups and chemical bonds. They have the characteristics of small particle size and large specific surface area. OTC (2.5 mg/L) was removed when the BMO dosage was 75 μmol/L and the solution pH was 5.0. The removal ratio was close to 100 % after 12 h of culture at 35 °C and 150 r/min. BMO can adsorb and catalyze the oxidation of OTC and can produce ·O2-, ·OH, 1O2, and Mn(Ⅲ) intermediate. Fifteen products and degradation pathways were identified, and the toxicity of most intermediates is reduced compared to OTC. The removal mechanism was preliminarily clarified. The results of this study are convenient for the practical application of BMO in OTC pollution in water and for solving the harm caused by antibiotic pollution.

ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2023; 239:117373. [PMID: 37827367 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2023.117373] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/26/2023] [Revised: 10/08/2023] [Accepted: 10/09/2023] [Indexed: 10/14/2023]
Abstract
Biological Mn(II) removal usually involves adsorption and precipitation of Mn(II) in the form of various minerals. Manganese oxides (MnOx) formation through the activity of Mn(II) oxidation bacteria (MnOB) contributes to the majority of Mn(II) removal. However, whether other bacterial-mediated pathway could couple or competitive with Mn(II) oxidation during Mn(II) removal is scarcely reported. In this study, we reported a competitive Mn(II) removal occurred in nutrient-rich condition during the indirect Mn(II) oxidation of Lysinibacillus sp. MHQ-1, i.e., microbially-induced carbonate precipitation (MICP). In the presence of 1 mM Mn(II), 39.4% of free Mn(II) converted to MnCO3(s) quickly within 100 h, and then 11.6% of initial Mn(II) slowly oxidized to MnOx within 442 h. The urease activity assay and the genome sequencing confirmed the existence of urease and the absence of Mn(II)-oxidizing enzymes in the genome of strain MHQ-1. The urease catalyzed the formation of carbonate ion that reacts with Mn(II) and the formed ammonia raises the pH to initiate indirect Mn(II) oxidation. Genome survey suggests the urease widely exists in various Mn(II)-oxidizing bacteria (MnOB), emphasizing the importance to reconsider the composition, stability and environmental effects of biological Mn(II) removal products in nutrient-rich environment.

The cryptic step in the biogeochemical tellurium (Te) cycle: Indirect elementary Te oxidation mediated by manganese-oxidizing bacteria Bacillus sp. FF-1. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2023; 238:117212. [PMID: 37778606 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2023.117212] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/21/2023] [Revised: 09/05/2023] [Accepted: 09/07/2023] [Indexed: 10/03/2023]
Abstract
Tellurium (Te) is a rare element within the chalcogen group, and its biogeochemical cycle has been studied extensively. Tellurite (Te(IV)) is the most soluble Te species and is highly toxic to organisms. Chemical or biological Te(IV) reduction to elemental tellurium (Te0) is generally considered an effective detoxification route for Te(IV)-containing wastewater. This study unveils a previously unnoticed Te0 oxidation process mediated by the manganese-oxidizing bacterium Bacillus sp. FF-1. This bacterium, which exhibits both Mn(II)-oxidizing and Te(IV)-reducing abilities, can produce manganese oxides (BioMnOx) and Te0 (BioTe0) when exposed to Mn(II) and Te(IV), respectively. When 5 mM Mn(II) was added after incubating 0.1 mM or 1 mM Te(IV) with strain FF-1 for 16 h, BioTe0 was certainly re-oxidized to Te(IV) by BioMnOx. Chemogenic and exogenous biogenic Te0 can also be oxidized by BioMnOx, although at different rates. This study highlights a new transformation process of tellurium species mediated by manganese-oxidizing bacteria, revealing that the environmental fate and ecological risks of Te0 need to be re-evaluated.

Abstract
Groundwater serving as a drinking water resource usually contains manganese ions (Mn2+) that exceed drinking standards. Based on the Mn biogeochemical cycle at the hydrosphere scale, bioprocesses consisting of aeration, biofiltration, and disinfection are well known as a cost-effective and environmentally friendly ecotechnology for removing Mn2+. The design of aeration and biofiltration units, which are critical components, is significantly influenced by coexisting iron and ammonia in groundwater; however, there is no unified standard for optimizing bioprocess operation. In addition to the groundwater purification, it was also found that manganese-oxidizing bacteria (MnOB)-derived biogenic Mn oxides (bioMnOx), a by-product, have a low crystallinity and a relatively high specific surface area; the MnOB supplied with Mn2+ can be developed for contaminated water remediation. As a result, according to previous studies, this paper summarized and provided operational suggestions for the removal of Mn2+ from groundwater. This review also anticipated challenges and future concerns, as well as opportunities for bioMnOx applications. These could improve our understanding of the MnOB group and its practical applications.
