ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2024; 248:118212. [PMID: 38272293 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2024.118212] [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: 06/16/2023] [Revised: 11/12/2023] [Accepted: 01/13/2024] [Indexed: 01/27/2024]
Abstract
Chlorpyrifos (CPF) is a highly toxic phosphate-rich organic pesticide (OP), identified as an emerging contaminant and used extensively in agricultural production. CPF persistence in the environment and its potential health hazards has become increasingly concerning worldwide in recent years due to exponential rise in food demand. Biodegradation of chlorpyrifos by microbial cultures is a promising approach to reclaiming contaminated soil and aquatic environments. The purpose of this review is to summarize the current understanding of microbiological aspects of xenobiotic chlorpyrifos biodegradation, including microbial diversity, metabolic pathways, and factors that modulate it. In both aerobic and anaerobic environments, CPF is biochemically broken down by a broad spectrum of bacteria and fungi. Hydrolysis, dehalogenation, and oxidation of chlorpyrifos are all enzymatic reactions that lead to its degradation. Biodegradation rate and efficiency are strongly influenced by parametric variables such as co-substrates abundance, pH, temperature, and initial chlorpyrifos concentration. The review provides evidence that microbial biodegradation is a viable method for remediating chlorpyrifos-contaminated sites in a sustainable and safe manner.

Kumar R, Saini GK, Jawed M. Resilience of aerobic sludge biomass under chlorpyrifos stress and its recovery potential. CHEMOSPHERE 2024; 352:141324. [PMID: 38296207 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2024.141324] [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: 07/17/2023] [Revised: 12/15/2023] [Accepted: 01/27/2024] [Indexed: 02/06/2024]
Abstract
Non-agricultural sources of pesticides in urban areas are responsible for their presence in domestic wastewater. Therefore, pesticides are typically found in sewage treatment plants in developed and developing countries as micro-pollutant. The presence of pesticides in the wastewater can impart stress on the aerobic sludge biomass and disrupt the functioning of the plant. However, there exists a knowledge gap regarding the resilience of aerobic sludge biomass towards stress due to the presence of pesticides in the wastewater. This study investigated the impact of chlorpyrifos (CPS) - a widely used pesticide, on sludge biomass and explored its recovery capability when CPS is discontinued in the influent. Four duplicate reactors were operated with different CPS concentrations ranging from 50 to 200 mg/L. Chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal for reactors has ranged within 18-73 % at the steady state of the stressed phase, whereas COD removal for the control reactor was 91 %. CPS stress slightly inhibited filamentous biomass growth. Biomass activity and cell viability have decreased significantly, whereas biochemical contents have varied slightly under CPS stress. The activities of the enzymes dehydrogenase and urease were significantly inhibited when compared to catalase and protease. Amplified ribosomal DNA restriction analysis reflected changes in the microbial community. The discontinuation of CPS has allowed aerobic sludge biomass to recover in its organic degradation capability (COD removal of more than 88 % at steady-state conditions of recovery phase operation), biomass growth, and cell viability. In addition, enzyme activities have retrieved to their original levels, and 78-93 % similarity of microbial community structure has been displayed between CPS-exposed and control reactor biomasses. Overall, the present study has indicated the orderly changes in the quality of aerobic sludge biomass under CPS stress through physico-chemical and biological characteristics. The study also has highlighted the self-recovery of sludge biomass characteristics stressed with different concentrations of CPS.

Abstract
Chlorpyrifos (CP) is a pesticide widely used in agricultural production. However, excessive use of CP is risky for human health and the ecological environment. Microbial remediation has become a research hotspot of environmental pollution control. In this study, the effective CP-degrading strain H27 (Bacillus cereus) was screened from farmland soil, and the degradation ratio was more than 80%. Then, the degradation mechanism was discussed in terms of enzymes, pathways, products and genes, and the mechanism was improved in terms of cell motility, secretory transport system and biofilm formation. The key CP-degrading enzymes were mainly intracellular enzymes (IE), and the degradation ratio reached 49.6% within 30 min. The optimal pH for IE was 7.0, and the optimal temperature was 25 °C. Using DFT and HPLC‒MS analysis, it was found that degradation mainly involved oxidation, hydrolysis and other reactions, and 3 degradation pathways and 14 products were identified, among which TCP (3,5,6-trichloro-2-pyridinol) was the main primary degradation product in addition to small molecules such as CO2 and H2O. Finally, the whole genome of strain H27 was sequenced, and the related degrading genes and enzymes were investigated to improve the metabolic pathways. Strain H27 had perfect genes related to flagellar assembly and chemotaxis and tended to tolerate CP. Moreover, it can secrete esterase, phosphatase and other substances, which can form biofilms and degrade CP in the environment. In addition, CP enters the cell under the action of permeases or transporters, and it is metabolized by IE. The degradation mechanism of CP by strain H27 is speculated in this study, which provided a theoretical basis for enriching CP-degrading bacteria resources, improving degradation metabolic pathways and mechanisms, and applying strain H27 to environmental pollution remediation.

Abstract
Oxidative degradation can effectively degrade aromatic emerging contaminants (ECs). However, the degradability of lone inorganic/biogenic oxides or oxidases is typically limited when treating polycyclic ECs. Herein, we report a dual-dynamic oxidative system comprising engineered Pseudomonas and biogenic Mn oxides (BMO), which completely degrades diclofenac (DCF), a representative halogen-containing polycyclic EC. Correspondingly, recombinant Pseudomonas sp. MB04R-2 was constructed via gene deletion and chromosomal insertion of a heterologous multicopper oxidase cotA, allowing for enhanced Mn(II)-oxidizing activity and rapid formation of the BMO aggregate complex. Additionally, we characterized it as a micro/nanostructured ramsdellite (MnO2) composite using multiple-phase composition and fine structure analyses. Furthermore, using real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction, gene knockout, and expression complementation of oxygenase genes, we demonstrated the central and associative roles of intracellular oxygenases and cytogenic/BMO-derived free radicals (FRs) in degrading DCF and determined the effects of FR excitation and quenching on the DCF degradation efficiency. Finally, after identifying the degraded intermediates of 2H-labeled DCF, we constructed the DCF metabolic pathway. In addition, we evaluated the degradation and detoxification effects of the BMO composite on DCF-containing urban lake water and on biotoxicity in zebrafish embryos. Based on our findings, we proposed a mechanism for oxidative degradation of DCF by associative oxygenases and FRs.

Abstract
The clopidogrel bisulfate was degraded under aerobic conditions by two bacterial strains isolated from industrial effluents in El-Harrach, Algeria. The sequencing of their 16S rRNA revealed that these two strains are Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Pseudomonas putida. The experiments showed that this consortium could remove clopidogrel bisulfate at high concentrations (5-1500 mg·L-1) within 96 h incubation period. The HPLC analysis recorded 75.23% degradation of clopidogrel bisulfate at an initial concentration of 100 mg·L-1 after five days of incubation at pH 7.0 and a temperature of 30 °C. Also, a maximum degradation of 99.08% was carried out at a more basic pH (8.5). While only 41% was degraded at a temperature of 20 °C. Moreover, the presence of supplemental sources of carbon and nitrogen in the mixed culture media effectively improved the biodegradation of clopidogrel bisulfate by the stains. Finally, the morphology of the strains and the properties of the cell's surface were studied using a scanning electron microscope (SEM). This study reports, for the first time, the viability of the aerobic biodegradation of clopidogrel bisulfate in water in a wide range of concentrations.

Abstract
Accumulating evidence indicates that chronic exposure to a low level of pesticides found in diet affects the human gut-microbiota–blood–brain barrier (BBB) axis. This axis describes the physiological and bidirectional connection between the microbiota, the intestinal barrier (IB), and the BBB. Preclinical observations reported a gut microbial alteration induced by pesticides, also known as dysbiosis, a condition associated not only with gastrointestinal disorders but also with diseases affecting other distal organs, such as the BBB. However, the interplay between pesticides, microbiota, the IB, and the BBB is still not fully explored. In this review, we first consider the similarities/differences between these two physiological barriers and the different pathways that link the gut microbiota and the BBB to better understand the dialogue between bacteria and the brain. We then discuss the effects of chronic oral pesticide exposure on the gut-microbiota-BBB axis and raise awareness of the danger of chronic exposure, especially during the perinatal period (pregnant women and offspring).

Identification of two possible metabolic pathways responsible for the biodegradation of 3, 5, 6-trichloro-2-pyridinol in Micrococcus luteus ML. Biodegradation 2023; 34:371-381.

Abstract
3, 5, 6-Trichloro-2-pyridinol (TCP) is a metabolite of the insecticide chlorpyrifos and the herbicide triclopyr, and it is higher toxic than the parent compounds. Microbially-mediated mineralization appears to be the primary degradative pathway and the important biological process of detoxification. However, little information is available on TCP complete metabolic pathways and mechanisms. In this study, the degradation of TCP was studied with a novel strain Micrococcus luteus ML isolated from a stable TCP degrading microbiota. Strain ML was capable of degrading 61.6% of TCP (50 mg/L) and 35.4% of chlorpyrifos (50 mg/L) at 24 h and 48 h under the optimal conditions (temperature: 35 °C; pH: 7.0), respectively. It could also degrade 3, 5-dichloro-2-pyridone, 6-chloropyridin-2-ol, 2-hydroxypyridine and phoxim when provided as sole carbon and energy sources. Seven TCP intermediate metabolites were detected in strain ML and two possible degradation pathways of TCP were proposed on the basis of LC-MS analysis. Both the hydrolytic-oxidative dechlorination pathway and the denitrification pathway might be involved in TCP biodegradation by strain ML. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report on two different pathways responsible for TCP degradation in one strain, and this finding also provides novel information for studying the metabolic mechanism of TCP in pure culture.

Abstract
For decades, most of the developing nations have relied on chlorpyrifos for insecticidal activity in the agriculture sector. It is a common chlorinated organophosphorus pesticide that has been widely used to control insects to protect plants. This study aimed to investigate the effects of environmental characteristics such as salinity, pH, temperature, and surfactant on Hortaea sp. B15 mediated degradation of chlorpyrifos as well as enzyme activity and metabolic pathway. The highest bacterial growth (4.6 × 1016 CFU/mL) was achieved after 20 h of incubation in a 100 mg/L chlorpyrifos amended culture. The fit model and feasible way to express the chlorpyrifos biodegradation kinetics in normal condition and optimized was a first-order rate equation, with an R2 value of 0.95-0.98. The optimum pH for chlorpyrifos biodegradation was pH 9, which resulted in a high removal rate (91.1%) and a maximum total count of 3.8 × 1016 CFU/mL. Increasing the temperature over 40 °C may inhibit microbial development and biodegradation. There was no significant effect of culture salinity on degradation and bacterial growth. In the presence of non-ionic surfactant Tween 80, the maximum chlorpyrifos degradation (89.5%) and bacterial growth (3.8 × 1016 CFU/mL) was achieved. Metabolites such as 3,5,6-trichloropyridin-2-ol and 2-pyridinol were identified in the Hortaea sp. B15 mediated degradation of chlorpyrifos. According to the findings, Hortaea sp. B15 should be recommended for use in the investigation of in situ biodegradation of pesticides.

Abstract
The indiscriminate use of organophosphate insecticide chlorpyrifos in agricultural crops causes significant soil and water pollution and poses a serious threat to the global community. In this study, a microbial consortium ERM C-1 containing bacterial strains Pseudomonas putida T7, Pseudomonas aeruginosa M2, Klebsiella pneumoniae M6, and a fungal strain Aspergillus terreus TF1 was developed for the effective degradation of chlorpyrifos. Results revealed that microbial strains were not only utilizing chlorpyrifos (500 mg L–1) but also coupled with plant growth-promoting characteristics and laccase production. PGP traits, that is, IAA (35.53, 45.53, 25.19, and 25.53 μg mL–1), HCN (19.85, 17.85, 12.18, and 9.85 μg mL–1), and ammonium (14.73, 16.73, 8.05, and 10.87 μg mL–1) production, and potassium (49.53, 66.72, 46.14, and 52.72 μg mL–1), phosphate (52.37, 63.89, 33.33, and 71.89 μg mL–1), and zinc (29.75, 49.75, 49.12, and 57.75 μg mL–1) solubilization tests were positive for microbial strains T7, M2, M6, and TF1, respectively. The laccase activity by ERM C-1 was estimated as 37.53, 57.16, and 87.57 enzyme U mL–1 after 5, 10, and 15 days of incubation, respectively. Chlorpyrifos degradation was associated with ERM C-1 and laccase activity, and the degree of enzyme activity was higher in the consortium than in individual strains. The biodegradation study with developed consortium ERM C-1 showed a decreased chlorpyrifos concentration from the 7th day of incubation (65.77% degradation) followed by complete disappearance (100% degradation) after the 30th day of incubation in the MS medium. First-order degradation kinetics with a linear model revealed a high k –day value and low t1/2 value in ERM C-1. The results of HPLC and GC-MS analysis proved that consortium ERM C-1 was capable of completely removing chlorpyrifos by co-metabolism mechanism.

[PMID: 34600951 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2021.09.098] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/05/2021] [Revised: 08/27/2021] [Accepted: 09/15/2021] [Indexed: 10/20/2022]
Abstract
Chitosan (CTS) functionalized Halloysite Nanotubes (HNT) have been used as receptive nano-supports for the grafting of copper (Cu) and laccase (Lac) for the degradation of chlorpyrifos. The developed nanocomposite Lac@Cu-CTS-HNT showed 83.4% Lac immobilization which was further characterized by TEM, SEM-EDX, FTIR, XRD, DSC and TGA. The chlorpyrifos degradation studies were performed under constant stirring for 24 h with both free enzyme and Lac@Cu-CTS-HNT and were analysed through HPLC. Percentage degradation of chlorpyrifos with the nanocomposite went as high as 97% for 50 μg/mL chlorpyrifos at neutral pH and room temperature. Variable pesticide and nanocomposite concentration, pH, and temperature studies for pesticide degradation were also performed, followed by reusability studies. The nanocomposite maintained its degradation ability at ~97% even at variable temperature and pH conditions. Reusability study was performed 5 times wherein the degradation percentage remained the same after 5 cycles (~<95%). Degradation kinetics were also performed for the nanocomposite in the presence and absence of the immobilized enzyme. Through this study, it is suggested that Lac@Cu-CTS-HNT can be a potential nano-catalyst for the degradation of chlorpyrifos in aqueous environment.

Abstract
Bisphenol A (BPA), a chemical of environmental concern, is recalcitrant under anoxic conditions, but is susceptible to oxidative degradation by manganese(IV)-oxide (MnO2). Microbial Mn(II)-oxidation generates MnO2-bio; however, BPA degradation in cultures of Mn(II)-oxidizing bacteria has not been explored. We assessed MnO2-bio-mediated BPA degradation using three Mn(II)-oxidizing bacteria, Roseobacter sp. AzwK-3b, Erythrobacter sp. SD-21, and Pseudomonas putida GB-1. In cultures of all three strains, enhanced BPA degradation was evident in the presence of Mn(II) compared to replicate incubations without Mn(II), suggesting MnO2-bio mediated BPA degradation. Increased Mn(II) concentrations up to 100 µM resulted in more MnO2-bio formation but the highest BPA degradation rates were observed with 10 µM Mn(II). Compared to abiotic BPA degradation with 10 μM synthetic MnO2, live cultures of strain GB-1 amended with 10 μM Mn(II) consumed 9-fold more BPA at about 5-fold higher rates. Growth of strain AzwK-3b was sensitive to BPA and the organism showed increased tolerance against BPA in the presence of Mn(II), suggesting MnO2-bio alleviated the inhibition by mediating BPA degradation. The findings demonstrate that Mn(II)-oxidizing bacteria contribute to BPA degradation but organism-specific differences exist, and for biologically-mediated-abiotic-degradation (BMAD), Mn-flux, rather than the absolute amount of MnO2-bio, is the key determinant for oxidation activity.

Abstract
Chlorpyrifos (CP) is a typical organophosphorus insecticide, which poses serious threats to the natural environment and human health. Strategies for the fast elimination of CP and its toxic hydrolytic metabolite 3,5,6-trichloro-2(1H)-pyridianol (TCP) in drainage water are urgently needed. The fate of CP and TCP in microcosm-scale subsurface batch constructed wetlands (SSBCWs) was quantified with different macrophyte species under soda saline-alkaline (SSA) condition and effective intensification strategies were developed. The macrophyte species Canna indica outperformed Phragmites australis and Typha orientalis for CP and TCP removal in SSBCWs. Mass balance calculation indicates the fate of CP in SSBCWs was residue in water (≤8%), alkaline hydrolysis (18.93-57.42%), microbial degradation (37.75-61.91%), substrate adsorption (~4-14%), and macrophyte uptake (≤3%). The addition of ferric-carbon (Fe-C) as a substrate amendment in SSBCWs increased the CP removal percentage by 35% and reduced the effluent TCP concentration by ~70% during Day 1-4 on average compared with the unintensified control. Fe-C addition simplified the microbial community diversity, while increasing the relative abundance of Proteobacteria which tolerates the microelectrolytic environment. A single application of liquid microbial agent improved CP removal percentage by 84% and decreased the effluent TCP concentration by two orders of magnitude during Day 1-4. The hydraulic retention time for thorough removal of TCP reduced from over 8 d to 4 d. Although only two dominant microbial genera (i.e., Sphingomonas and Pseudomonas) adapted to the environment with CP and SSA, they accelerated CP and TCP degradation via their own metabolism and co-metabolism with other indigenous microorganisms.

Abstract
Ciprofloxacin (CIP), as a representative broad-spectrum antibiotic, poses a major threat to human health and the ecological environment as a result of its abuse and emissions. In this study, a highly active Mn2+-oxidizing bacterium, Pseudomonas sp. CCTCC M2014168, was induced to form micro-/nanostructured biogenic Mn oxide (BMO) aggregates through continuous culturing with 1 mmoL-1 Mn2+. Following the characterization of Mn4+ oxides and the micro-/nanostructures by scanning electron microscopy, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction assays, the BMO composites were subjected to CIP degradation and detoxification in laboratory trials. High-performance liquid chromatograph (HPLC) analysis identified that the BMO composites were capable of completely degrading CIP, and HPLC with a mass spectrometer (LC/MS) assays identified three intermediates in the degradation pathway. The reaction temperature, pH and initial ciprofloxacin concentration substantially affected the degradation efficiency of CIP to a certain extent, and the metal ions Mg2+, Cu2+, Ni2+ and Co2+ exerted significant inhibitory effects on CIP degradation. A toxicity test of the degradation products showed that CIP was completely detoxified by degradation. Moreover, the prepared BMO composite exhibited a high capacity for repeated degradation and good performance in continuous degradation cycles, as well as a high capacity to degrade CIP in real natural water.

Abstract
Bioaugmentation methods are frequently employed for pesticide pollution remediation; however, it is not clear whether the introduced bacteria affect the pesticide bound residue (BRs) composition and whether the BRs can be catabolized by the introduced strains. This study aimed at answering these questions by using 14C-chlorpyrifos (14C-CPF) and two CPF-degrading strains (Pseudomonas sp. DSP-1 and Cupriavidus sp. P2). The results showed that the BRs can be up to 83.0%, and that the CPF-BRs formed can be further transformed into 14CO2 by the strains. Indeed, the microbial inoculation can increase the CPF mineralization by 1.0-22.1 times and can decrease the BRs by up to ~50% of the control (on day 20). Compared with the control without bioaugmentation, microbial inoculation enhanced the release of BRs by 2.2-18.0 times. Adding biochar to the soil can greatly inhibit CPF mineralization and maintain the BR content at a relatively stable level. The CPF residue can affect the composition of the indigenous soil microbial community, but the introduction of bacteria for remediation did not have a significant effect. The results indicate that Pseudomonas sp. DSP-1 and Cupriavidus sp. P2 are useful for remediating both CPF extractable and bound residues.

Abstract
Extensive pesticides use is negatively disturbing the environment and humans. Pesticide bioremediation with eco-friendly techniques bears prime importance. This study evaluates the bioremediation of chlorpyrifos in soil using indigenous Bacillus cereus Ct3, isolated from cotton growing soils. Strains were identified through ribotyping (16s rRNA) by Macrogen (Macrogen Inc. Geumchen-gu, South Korea). Bacillus cereus Ct3 was resistant up to 125 mg L−1 of chlorpyrifos and successfully degraded 88% of chlorpyfifos in 8 days at pH 8. Bacillus cereus Ct3 tolerated about 30–40 °C of temperature, this is a good sign for in situ bioremediation. Green compost, farmyard manure and rice husk were tested, where ANOVA (P < 0.05) and Plackett–Burman design, results indicated that the farm yard manure has significant impact on degradation. It reduced the lag phase and brought maximum degradation up to 88%. Inoculum size is a statistically significant (P < 0.05) factor and below 106 (CFU g−1) show lag phase of 4–6 days. Michaelis–Menten model results were as follows; R2 = 0.9919, Vmax = 18.8, Ks = 121.4 and Vmax/Ks = 0.1546. GC–MS study revealed that chlorpyrifos first converted into diethylthiophosphoric acid and 3,5,6-trichloro-2-pyridinol (TCP). Later, TCP ring was broken and it was completely mineralized without any toxic byproduct. Plackett–Burman design was employed to investigate the effect of five factors. The correlation coefficient (R2) between experimental and predicted value is 0.94. Central composite design (CBD) was employed with design matrix of thirty one predicted and experimental values of chlorpyrifos degradation, having “lack of fit P value” of “0.00”. The regression coefficient obtained was R2 = 0.93 which indicate that the experimental vales and the predicted values are closely fitted. The most significant factors highlighted in CBD/ANOVA and surface response plots were chlorpyrifor concentration and inoculum size. Bacillus cereus Ct3 effectively degraded chlorpyrifos and can successfully be used for bioremediation of chlorpyrifos contaminated soils.

Abstract
Skin acts as a mechanical barrier between human body and environment. Epidermal cells are regularly exposed to many physiological and environmental stressors, such as pesticides, like chlorpyrifos (CPS). It is recognised that CPS may affect metabolism of other exo- and endogenous substances by affecting enzyme activity and expression. This study aims to investigate the effect of CPS on expression of CYP27A1, CYP27B1 and CYP24A1, the enzymes involved in synthesis and metabolism of vitamin D3, in human keratinocytes HaCaT and human fibroblasts BJ. Synthesis of vitamin D3 in cells was initiated by irradiating with UVB. Expression of CYP27A1, CYP27B1 and CYP24A1 was evaluated by RT-qPCR and Western blot. Our experiments revealed that expression of all tested cytochrome P450 isoforms in cells exposed to CPS changed significantly. Exposure of HaCaT keratinocytes to CPS decreased CYP27A1 mRNA levels, but increased CYP27B1 and CYP24A1 mRNA levels. This was confirmed at the protein level, except for the CYP27A1 expression. Outcome for the BJ cells was however less conclusive. Though exposure to CPS decreased CYP27A1 and CYP27B1 mRNA levels, at protein level increasing concentration of CPS and UVB intensity induced expression of CYP27A1 and CYP24A1. The expression of CYP27B1 isoform decreased in line with mRNA level. Nevertheless, it can be concluded that CPS may therefore interrupt vitamin D3 metabolism in skin cells, but further studies are required to better understand such mechanisms.

Abstract
Similar to diethylphosphate (DEP), 3,5,6-trichloro-2-pyridinol (TCP) is also a characteristic chemical substance and ultimate transformation product of chlorpyrifos (CPF) because the structure of TCP is equivalent to the trichloro pyridine structure of CPF. TCP is often used as a biomarker of CPF exposure. TCP and DEP are often detected in human blood and urine due to the widespread use of CPF. No studies have sufficiently clarified which structure contributes to the negative effect of CPF on testosterone synthesis. This study aims to explain which structure promotes the inhibitory effect of CPF on testosterone synthesis and the related influence mechanisms. After 20 weeks of exposure, the testosterone level in testes was significantly reduced by different doses of CPF (0.3 mg/kg body weight CPF and 3.0 mg/kg body weight CPF). Meanwhile, the level of testosterone synthesized by isolated primary Leydig cells was also reduced by CPF. In addition, TCP but not DEP aggravated the decrease in testosterone synthesis in isolated primary Leydig cells. On the other hand, CPF and TCP significantly decreased the levels of the Star protein, CREB phosphorylation and PKA phosphorylation, which are important in regulating testosterone synthesis. Based on these results, TCP is a key structure that mediates the CPF-induced decrease in testosterone synthesis by terminating the signal transmission of the LH-LHR-PKA-CREB-Star pathway. Thus, chemicals with the TCP structure may be potential endocrine disruptors that decrease fertility. Chemicals that can be converted to TCP or achieve a trichloro pyridine structure must be considered during reproductive toxicity risk assessment.

Abstract
Antibiotics are widely used in livestock and poultry industries, which results in large quantities of antibiotic residues in manure that influences subsequent treatments. In this study, an Escherichia coli strain was engineered to display erythromycin esterase on its cell surface. The engineered strain (E. coli ereA) efficiently degraded erythromycin by opening the macrocyclic 14-membered lactone ring in solution. Erythromycin (50 mg/L) was completely degraded in a solution by E. coli ereA (1 × 109 CFU/mL) within 24 h. E. coli ereA retained over 86.7 % of the initial enzyme activity after 40 days of storage at 25 °C, and 78.5 % of the initial activity after seven repeated batch reactions in solution at 25 °C. Mice were fed with E. coli ereA and real-time quantitative PCR data showed that E. coli ereA colonized in the mice large intestine. The mice group fed E. coli ereA exhibited 83.13 % decrease in erythromycin levels in their feces compared with the mice group not fed E. coli ereA. E. coli ereA eliminated antibiotics from the source preventing its release into the environment. The surface-engineered strain therefore is an effective alternative agent for treating recalcitrant antibiotics, and has the potential to be applied in livestock and poultry industries.

Abstract
Halogenated aromatics are used widely in various industrial, agricultural and household applications. However, due to their stability, most of these compounds persist for a long time, leading to accumulation in the environment. Biological degradation of halogenated aromatics provides sustainable, low-cost and environmentally friendly technologies for removing these toxicants from the environment. This minireview discusses the molecular mechanisms of the enzymatic reactions for degrading halogenated aromatics which naturally occur in various microorganisms. In general, the biodegradation process (especially for aerobic degradation) can be divided into three main steps: upper, middle and lower metabolic pathways which successively convert the toxic halogenated aromatics to common metabolites in cells. The most difficult step in the degradation of halogenated aromatics is the dehalogenation step in the middle pathway. Although a variety of enzymes are involved in the degradation of halogenated aromatics, these various pathways all share the common feature of eventually generating metabolites for utilizing in the energy-producing metabolic pathways in cells. An in-depth understanding of how microbes employ various enzymes in biodegradation can lead to the development of new biotechnologies via enzyme/cell/metabolic engineering or synthetic biology for sustainable biodegradation processes.

Abstract
3, 5, 6-trichloro-2-pyridinol (TCP) is a widespread organic pollutant with persistent, mobile and high antimicrobial effects. Here, nanoFe3O4 was firstly introduced into the anoxic biodegradation of TCP. It was found that nanoFe3O4 significantly accelerated TCP biodegradation. The removal rate of TCP (100 mg L-1) increased from 83.03% to 98.74% within 12 h in the presence of nanoFe3O4, and the addition of nanoFe3O4 also promoted the accumulation of CO2. Reductive dechlorination mechanism was involved in anoxic biodegradation of TCP. Molecular approaches further revealed that nanoFe3O4 distinctly induced the shifts of bacterial community. The dominant genus Ochrobactrum was converted to genus Delftia in nanoFe3O4 treatment, and the relative abundance of Delftia increased from 10.26% to 44.62%. Meanwhile, the total relative abundance of bacteria related to TCP dechlorination and degradation significantly increased in the presence of nanoFe3O4. These results indicated that nanoFe3O4 induced the enrichment of TCP-degrading bacteria to promote the anoxic biodegradation of TCP.

Abstract
Lignocellulosic agricultural bi-products, pearl millet (PM) and finger millet (FM) husks, were used for the production of laccase using Bacillus sp. PS under solid-state fermentation (SSF). Abiotic variables such as substrate (PM, FM) concentration (1-5%), incubation time (24-96 h) and pH (5-10) were optimized using Response surface methodology (RSM) to maximize the laccase production. The predicted model showed maximum laccase activity of 402 U/mL appearing after 96 h of incubation with PM 2.0 g/L and FM 1.5 g/L at pH 7.0. Single protein band on sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) confirmed homogeneity of the laccase with a molecular weight of 63-75 kDa. The partially purified laccase effectively degraded the pesticides (Tricel, 71.8 ± 3.5 and Phoskill 77.3 ± 3.4%) within 5 days of incubation (40 °C) in pH 7.0. The pesticide degradation was further confirmed by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and the chromatograms showed the single dominant peaks at retention time 2.482 (tricel) and 2.608 (phoskill) min, respectively. Pesticide-degrading laccase was produced by Bacillus sp. PS under SSF reveals the utilization of low-cost bi-substrates for enhanced laccase production.

Abstract
Natural water sources are very often contaminated by municipal wastewater discharges which contain either of xenobiotic pollutants and their sometimes more toxic degradation products, or both, which frustrates the universal millenium development goal of provision of the relatively scarce pristine freshwater to water-scarce and -stressed communities, in order to augment their socioeconomic well-being. Seeing that both regulatory measures, as regards the discharge limits of wastewater, and the query for efficient treatment methods remain unanswered, partially, the prospects of enzymatic treatment of wastewater is advisable. Therefore, a reconsideration was assigned to the possible capacity of oxidative enzymes and the respective challenges encountered during their applications in wastewater treatment, and ultimately, the prospects of laccase, a polyphenol oxidase that oxidizes aromatic and inorganic substrates with electron-donating groups in treatment aromatic contaminants of wastewater, in real wastewater situations, since it is assumed to be a vehicle for a greener community. Furthermore, the importance of laccase-driven catalysis toward maintaining mass-energy balance, hence minimizing environmental waste, was comprehensibly elucidated, as well the strategic positioning of laccase in a model wastewater treatment facility for effective treatment of wastewater contaminants.

Abstract
The presented paper describes a detailed study on the use of immobilized laccase for effective degradation of Cibacron Blue 3GA dye. The amount of laccase loading on the cyclic carbonate groups containing poly(hydroxyethyl methacrylate-co-vinylene carbonate), p(HEMA-co-VC), microbeads was 27.8 mg g-1, and the retained immobilized enzyme activity was 73% compared to free enzyme. The toxicity of the dye and its byproducts were studied using Daphnia magna as test organism. The micro-algal growth inhibition was also studied using a green micro algae "Chlorella vulgaris". MALDI-ToF-MS was used to verify dye degradation byproducts. After 60 min of incubation period, Cibacron Blue 3GA (CB3GA) and its byproducts disappeared from the medium. After 60-min enzymatic treatment, the non-toxic nature of medium was confirmed by toxicity studies. On the other hand, the initial byproducts of the dye seemed to be more toxic than the later formed dye products. It should be noted that the information obtained from this study can be beneficial for understanding the initial degradation byproducts toxicities of the enzymatically treated dyes to provide information about environmental protection.

Abstract
In this study, a mixture of carbamates (CRBs) degrading Carb.1b strain was isolated from soil. Based on the morphology and 18S rRNA sequence analysis, the strain was identified as an Ascochyta sp. CBS 237.37 with accession number MG786925. The isolate was employed in two growth mediums (added carbon and carbon-free) enriched with varied concentrations of CRBs ranging from 25 to 85 mg L-1 to assess its degradation efficacy. As determined by the Response Surface Methodology (RSM), optimum parameters for the degradation were: pH value of 7.5 and temperature of 28 °C. The degradation was inhibited at higher concentrations and was found to be 91.2%/94.8%, 67.25%/71.75%, 55.81%/59.81%, 46.85%/49.57% and 36%/40.80% (in carbon-free/added carbon) after 20 d. The removal of the higher concentration CRBs was comparatively slower, and the obtained degradation rate constant (Kavg) 0.03412 d-1. Added carbon and carbon-free medium removed over 86.7%/90.15% of CRBs (85 mgL-1) with the half-life (t1/2) of 26 d and R2 ranging from 0.982 to 0.999; indicating the high tolerance of carb.1b strain towards CRBs. Residual analysis of CRBs biodegradation was performed using GC/MS analysis. This is the first report of degradation of a mixture of CRBs by Ascochyta sp. CBS 237.37. The results of this study can possibly impact the development strategies of bioremediation for the elimination of CRBs.

Abstract
Chlorpyrifos is one of the most used organophosphorus insecticides. It is commonly degraded to 3,5,6-trichloro-2-pyridinol (TCP), which is water-soluble and toxic. Bacteria can degrade chlorpyrifos and TCP, but the biodegradation mechanism has not been well-characterized. Recently isolated Cupriavidus nantongensis X1T can completely degrade 100 mg/L chlorpyrifos and 20 mg/L TCP with half-lives of 6 and 8 h, respectively. We annotated a complete gene cluster responsible for TCP degradation in recently sequenced strain X1T. Two key genes, tcpA and fre, were cloned from X1T and transferred and expressed in Escherichia coli BL21(DE3). Degradation of TCP by X1T whole cell was compared with that by the enzymes 2,4,6-trichlorophenol monooxygenase and NAD(P)H:flavin reductase expressed and purified from E. coli BL21(DE3). Novel metabolites of TCP were isolated and characterized, indicating stepwise dechlorination of TCP, which was confirmed by TCP disappearance, mass balance, and detection and formation kinetics of chloride ion from TCP.

Abstract
The whitefly Bemisia tabaci is a phloem-feeding pest that lives predominantly on herbaceous species and causes serious damage to hosts. Whitefly saliva is thought to contain proteins that modulate plant defences and facilitate feeding. A predicted secreted protein, laccase 1 (LAC1), was found in the salivary gland transcriptome of B. tabaci and might be existed in the watery saliva of B. tabaci. As LAC1 has a potential role in detoxification of secondary plant compounds in insects, we speculated that it may participate in the insect’s response to plant defences. Here, we cloned the complete cDNA of LAC1 and found that (1) LAC1 was highly expressed in the salivary gland (SG) and midgut; (2) LAC1 transcript level in head (containing SG) was 2.1 times higher in plant-fed than in diet-fed whiteflies and 1.6 times higher in the head and 23.8 times higher in the midgut of whiteflies that fed on jasmonic acid (JA)-sprayed plants than on control plants; and (3) silencing LAC1 decreased the survival rate of plant-fed whiteflies but had a marginal effect on whiteflies raised on an artificial diet. These results indicate that LAC1 enables whiteflies to overcome the chemical defences of host plants and might act as an effector in saliva.

Abstract
Laccases are a family of copper-containing oxidases with important applications in bioremediation and other various industrial and biotechnological areas. There have been over two dozen reviews on laccases since 2010 covering various aspects of this group of versatile enzymes, from their occurrence, biochemical properties, and expression to immobilization and applications. This review is not intended to be all-encompassing; instead, we highlighted some of the latest developments in basic and applied laccase research with an emphasis on laccase-mediated bioremediation of pharmaceuticals, especially antibiotics. Pharmaceuticals are a broad class of emerging organic contaminants that are recalcitrant and prevalent. The recent surge in the relevant literature justifies a short review on the topic. Since low laccase yields in natural and genetically modified hosts constitute a bottleneck to industrial-scale applications, we also accentuated a genus of laccase-producing white-rot fungi, Cerrena, and included a discussion with regards to regulation of laccase expression.

Abstract
Citrus limon peroxidase mediated decolourization of Direct Yellow 4 (DY4) was investigated. The process variables (pH, temperature, incubation time, enzyme dose, H2O2 amount, dye concentration, co-metal ions and surfactants) were optimized for maximum degradation of dye. Maximum dye decolourization of 89.47% was achieved at pH 5.0, temperature 50 °C, enzyme dose 24 U/mL, H2O2 concentration 0.25 mM and DY4 concentration 18.75 mg/L and incubation time 10 min. The co-metal ions and surfactants did not affect the dye decolourization significantly. Response surface analysis revealed that predicted values were in agreement with experimentally determined responses. The degradation products were identified by UPLC/MS analysis and degradation pathway was proposed. Besides, phytotoxicity assay revealed a considerable detoxification in response of biodegradation of DY4 dye. C. limon showed promising efficiency for DY4 degradation and could possibly be used for the remediation of textile effluents.
