Abstract
Almost one century after the Sir Alexander Fleming's fortuitous discovery of penicillin and the identification of the fungal producer as Penicillium notatum, later Penicillium chrysogenum (currently reidentified as Penicillium rubens), the molecular mechanisms behind the massive production of penicillin titers by industrial strains could be considered almost fully characterized. However, this filamentous fungus is not only circumscribed to penicillin, and instead, it seems to be full of surprises, thereby producing important metabolites and providing expanded biotechnological applications. This review, in addition to summarizing the classical role of P. chrysogenum as penicillin producer, highlights its ability to generate an array of additional bioactive secondary metabolites and enzymes, together with the use of this microorganism in relevant biotechnological processes, such as bioremediation, biocontrol, production of bioactive nanoparticles and compounds with pharmaceutical interest, revalorization of agricultural and food-derived wastes or the enhancement of food industrial processes and the agricultural production.

Abstract
The soil application of hydrothermally treated penicillin V fermentation residue (PFR) is attractive but challenged, due to the concern of the resistance risk in soil related to residual antibiotics. In this study, a lab-scale incubation experiment was conducted to investigate the influence of penicillin V on antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in PFR-amended soil via qPCR. The introduced penicillin V in soil could not be persistent, and its degradation occurred mainly within 2 days. The higher number of soil ARGs was detected under 108 mg/kg of penicillin V than lower contents (≤54 mg/kg). Additionally, the relative abundance of ARGs was higher in soil spiked with penicillin V than that in blank soil, and the great increase in the relative abundance of soil ARGs occurred earlier under 108 mg/kg of penicillin V than lower contents. The horizontal gene transfer might contribute to the shift of ARGs in PFR-amended soil. The results indicated that the residual penicillin V could cause the proliferation of soil ARGs and should be completely removed by hydrothermal treatment before soil application. The results of this study provide a comprehensive understanding of the resistance risk posed by penicillin V during the application of hydrothermally pretreated PFR.

Abstract
Erythromycin fermentation residue (EFR) after spray drying could be reused as a soil amendment. However, the effects of spray-dried EFR on antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs), nitrogen cycling, and microbial community structure in soil are rarely reported. In this study, a pot experiment was conducted by adding spray-dried EFR to soil. For the application of 1.0% spray-dried EFR, the residual erythromycin (ERY) could be rapidly removed with the half-life of 22.2 d; the total relative abundance of ARGs increased at first, but decreased to the initial level of the control group in the end; genes related to ammonium assimilation (glnA, gltB, gltD), ammonification (gdhA, gudB, cynT, cynS, ncd2), denitrification (narI, narG, narH), assimilatory nitrate reduction (nirA, nasA), and dissimilatory nitrate reduction (nirD) were enriched; soil microbial community structure presented temporary variation. Network analysis showed significant negative correlations between ARGs and nitrogen cycling genes. The addition of 6.0% spray-dried EFR resulted in the amplification of ARGs and inhibition of nitrogen cycling. This work provides new insights into the effects of spray-dried EFR on ARGs, nitrogen cycling, and microbial community structure within the fertilized soil.

Abstract
Strawberry plants (cv. Camarosa) were cultivated under organic (ORG) and integrated management (INT) practices to assess possible differences in plant growth, fruit production and quality, soil fertility, and plant nutrition. Two integrated fertilizer schemes were used, differentiating based on the origin of the major organic fertilizer used, i.e., chicken manure (I-ACT) versus fermented fungal biomass (I-AGR). Plant growth was higher under I-ACT treatment, whereas leaf area did not differ among treatments. The two integrated schemes resulted in higher fruit production. The organoleptic characteristics of the fruits did not differ, and this was also confirmed by a taste panel. The antioxidant capacity and flavanol concentration of organically produced fruits were higher, as well as fruit carbohydrate and total organic acid concentration. Leaf nitrogen concentration was higher under I-ACT, followed by ORG. I-ACT resulted in high leaf potassium concentration, as well as iron and manganese (together with I-AGR). Under ORG management, soil EC was found to be lower, whereas soil available phosphorus concentration was highest. Discriminant analysis taking into account fruit quality and phytochemical properties distinguished ORG management from the two integrated management practices, and when soil properties and leaf nutrient concentration were considered; all three systems were separated, indicating that the type of fertilizers used plays a significant role.

Abstract
Hydrothermal pretreatment can efficiently remove the residual antibiotics in oxytetracycline fermentation residue (OFR), but its effect on antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) during composting remains unclear. This study compared the shifts in bacterial community and evolutions in ARGs and integrons during different composting processes of OFRs with and without hydrothermal pretreatment. The results demonstrated that hydrothermal pretreatment increased the bacterial alpha diversity at the initial phase, and increased the relative abundances of Proteobacteria and Actinobacteria but decreased that of Bacteroidetes at the final phase by inactivating mycelia and removing residual oxytetracycline. Composting process inevitably elevated the abundance and relative abundance of ARGs. However, the increase in ARGs was significantly reduced by hydrothermal pretreatment, because the removal of oxytetracycline decreased their potential host bacteria and inhibited their horizontal gene transfer. The results demonstrated that hydrothermal pretreatment is an efficient strategy to reduce the enrichment of ARGs during the OFR composting.

Abstract
Erythromycin fermentation residue (EFR) is the precipitation of fermentative biowaste used for extracting erythromycin (ERY) and may be disposed via land application after heat-activated persulfate (PS) oxidation treatment. However, the effects of the treated EFR as a soil amendment on soil chemical properties and the potential resistance risks caused by introduced ERY remain unclear. Here, a laboratory soil incubation experiment was performed to investigate the soil pH, salinity, introduced antibiotics, antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) and mobile genetic elements (MGEs), as well as bacterial community structure in the treated EFR-amended soil. The results indicated that pH in treated EFR-amended soil decreased firstly and then increased. The salinity of soil increased but soil was still non-saline soil. In addition, the introduced ERY in the treated EFR-amended soil decreased with the half-life of 12.3 d. Moreover, the relative abundances of ERY resistance genes and MGEs in the treated EFR-amended soil were much lower than those in the control at the end of incubation. Bacterial community structure in the treated EFR-amended soil converged to similar structure in control soil after 49 d incubation. Our results showed that heat-activated PS oxidation treatment of EFR prior to application to soil might be in favor of limiting the spread of ERY resistance genes and MGEs.

WASTE MANAGEMENT (NEW YORK, N.Y.) 2020; 105:248-255.

Abstract
Penicillin V mycelial residue (PMR) is a byproduct of the pharmaceutical industry and may be disposed through land application after alkaline-thermal treatment. However, the efficacy of alkaline-thermally treated PMR in soil amelioration and the potential contamination risk caused by introduced penicillin V are poorly understood. In this study, soil pH, the contents of organic matter, available phosphorus, available potassium were measured to study the effect of alkaline-thermally treated PMR on soil fertility; the numbers of culturable microorganisms and the activities of enzymes, which not only reflect the decomposing ability of organic matter but also monitor the ecological suppression in soil ecosystem, were also investigated; moreover, the persistence of introduced penicillin V and the variation of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in soil were examined to evaluate the resulting antibiotic resistance risk. The results indicated that the pH and the content of available potassium in amended soil with treated PMR profoundly improved. In addition, the culturable microorganisms and enzymes were not inhibited throughout the incubation of treated PMR in soil. The stability of treated PMR in soil relatively completed after 43 days. More importantly, the penicillin V derived by treated PMR rapidly depleted within 3 days, which suggested a relatively low environmental persistence. The treated PMR did not enrich the ARGs detected in soil, demonstrating that the addition of treated PMR might not trigger the antibiotic resistance risk in the short-term in soil. In conclusion, our results concluded that alkaline-thermally treated PMR is available for soil application.

Variations of physical and chemical properties in relation to erythromycin mycelial dreg dewaterability under heat-activated persulfate oxidation conditioning.

Abstract
Erythromycin mycelial dreg (EMD) resulting from erythromycin (ERY) production process may be used as a nutrient resource. However, it has a high moisture content, which makes handling operations complicated. In this study, the EMD dewaterability under heat-activated persulfate (PS) oxidation conditioning was investigated. The variations of physical and chemical properties of EMD were further investigated to uncover the underlying mechanism of EMD dewaterability. Results indicated that EMD dewaterability was worse under single heat process, but significantly improved under heat-activated PS oxidation process. Heat-activated PS oxidation conditioning was capable to increase zeta potential, reduce median particle size, alter EMD flocs morphology, and disrupt mycelial cells. Concurrently, heat-activated PS oxidation conditioning resulted in the decrease of protein in tightly bound (TB) extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) and total EPS, and the decrease of fluorescing constituents (tryptophan protein, tyrosine protein and tryptophan amino acid) in EPS. Furthermore, a possible mechanism was proposed for heat-activated PS oxidation conditioning.

Abstract
Cephalosporin mycelial dreg (CMD) is a by-product of the pharmaceutical industry. Spray-drying is widely used for the dewatering process prior to the application of CMD as a soil amendment. However, the potential environmental behaviors and risks of spray-dried CMD amendment remain unclear. Here, a lab-scale incubation experiment was conducted to investigate the salinity, phytotoxicity, introduced antibiotics, heavy metals and the potential impacts of resistance genes in CMD-amended soil. Spray-dried CMD amendment generally increased soil salinity and only high dosed soils showed phytotoxic effects at the end of the incubation period, implying the physiological damage to plant growth. The introduced antibiotics quickly degraded over time, indicating a relatively low environmental persistence. Heavy metal slightly increased in soil receiving spray-dried CMD, and regulations should be developed to avoid metal accumulation. A decreased diversity and distinct patterns of β-lactam resistance genes as well as a dose-effect of their enrichment were observed in CMD-amended soil, which might be partially explained by the specific metals and introduced antibiotics. Antibiotic resistance genes in soil may be a valuable tool for evaluating the environmental risk associated with use of CMD as a soil amendment.

Abstract
To degrade the residual penicillin G in penicillin mycelial dreg (PMD), thermal treatment was used as a pretreatment for practical disposal. Given that the characteristics of treated-PMD aren't adequately clear, a lab-scale experiment was conducted to verify its safety assessment for land application under the following points: (i) variation of penicillin G residue (ii) maturity of organic matter (OM) (iii) phytotoxicity (iv) abundance of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). A high-throughput quantitative polymerase chain reaction (HT-qPCR) method was used to perform an overall investigation of soil ARGs. The results show that heat treatment effectively degrades 98% of penicillin in PMD within 120 min. After thermal treatment, the treated-PMD was applied to soil. The original penicillin level was considerably lower and completely degraded within 4 days. Variation of germination index (GI) implied that the created phytotoxicity was significantly reduced. Furthermore, compared with PMD, the addition of treated-PMD didn't cause enrichment of soil ARGs in diversity and abundance. Therefore, heat treatment can be considered as an effective pretreatment for PMD practical application.

Abstract
Utilization as dry mycelial fertilizer (DMF) produced from penicillin fermentation fungi mycelium (PFFM) with an acid-heating pretreatment is a potential way. To study the transformation and stability of water-extractable organic matter in DMF-amended soil via fluorescence regional integration (FRI) of fluorescence excitation-emission matrix (EEM), a soil experiment in pot was carried out. The results showed that residual penicillin (about 32 mg/kg) was almost degraded in the first 5 days, indicating that the drug pollution was in control. The pH value, DOC, DON, and DOC/DON presented a classical profile, but germination index (GI) leveled off about 0.13 till day 13 in DMF-12% treatment due to the severe phytotoxicity. The addition of DMF significantly increased the soil microbial populations in contrast to the CON treatment. The EEM showed that the protein-like and microbial byproduct-like matters vanished on the 25th and 33rd days, whereas the fulvic-like substances appeared on the 7th day. The humic-like substances existed in original samples but their content greatly enhanced finally. The FRI results showed that P V, n/P III, n reached the highest value of 1.84 on the 25th day, suggesting that DMF maintained stable in amended soil. Because of its consistency with the results of GI and DOC/DON, the EEM-FRI has a potential to evaluate the stability of DMF in soil.
