Abstract
This work presents the development, synthesis, and application of a layered double hydroxide (LDH) coupled to magnetic particles for the removal of antibiotics as tetracyclines (TC´s): tetracycline (TC), chlortetracycline (CT), oxytetracycline (OT), and doxycycline (DT) from milk samples. The LDH synthesis conditions, reaction time (30-90 min), molar ratios Mg2+/Al3+ (7:1-1:7), interlayer anion (NO3-, Cl-, CO32-, and dodecyl sulphate (DS-)) were evaluated. Under synthesis conditions (reaction time of 30 min, Mg2+/Al3+ molar ratio of 7:1, and DS- as interlayer anion), the LDH was coupled in a magnetic solid phase microextraction (MSPμE) methodology. At the optimal extraction conditions (pH 6, 5 min of contact time, 10 mg of adsorbent), a removal percentage of 99.0 % was obtained for each tetracycline. FTIR, TGA, SEM, and adsorption isotherms were employed to characterize the optimal adsorbent. Each experiment was corroborated by large-volume sample stacking capillary electrophoresis (LVSS-CE). The adsorbent was applied directly to positive milk samples (previously tested) for TC´s removal.

Abstract
The omnipresence of microplastics (MPs) around the world has attracted extensive attention in the past decade with more focuses on the interactions of standard MPs without additives in regular shapes and individual pollutant, whereas the actual MPs containing various additives in irregular shapes and complex pollutants are often co-occurrence in the environments. In this paper, the adsorption performance of disposable polypropylene (PP) cups-based MPs subjected to ultraviolet irradiation was investigated in unitary and binary water matrices. The surface characteristics were analyzed and the experimental data of adsorption were fitted by various kinetic and isotherm models, and the results indicated that more cracks and oxygen-containing functional groups with decreased hydrophobicity were produced with aging, and electrostatic attraction and hydrogen bonding dominated methylene blue (MB) and tetracycline (TC) capture in the individual system. Moreover, pseudo-second order kinetic model better described the adsorption processes. In the binary system, the co-existence of TC promoted MB uptake, while the presence of MB inhibited TC capture. In addition, TC adsorption was enhanced by Ca2+, maybe due to its complexation effect, while the presence of mono- and divalent inorganic salts inhibited MB capture. This research provides useful insights for the fate of PP-MPs and organic pollutants in the complex environments.

Abstract
The development of nanozymes (NZ) for the simultaneous detection of multiple target chemicals is gaining paramount attention in the field of food and health sciences, and waste management industries. Nanozymes (NZ) effectively compensate for the environmental vulnerability of natural enzymes. Considering the development gap of NZ with diverse applications, we synthesized versatile Schiff's base ligands following a facile route and readily available starting reagents (glutaraldehyde, aminopyridines). DPDI, one of the synthesized ligands, readily reacted with transition metal ions (Cu+2, Ag+1, Zn+2 in specific) under ambient conditions, yielding the corresponding nanoparticles/MOF. The structures of ligands and their products were confirmed using various analytical techniques. The enzymatic efficacy of DPDI-Cu (km 0.25 mM=, Vmax = 10.75 µM/sec) surpassed Tremetese versicolor laccase efficacy (km 0. 5 mM=, Vmax = 2.15 µM/sec). Additionally, DPDI-Cu proved resilient to changing pH, temperature, ionic strength, organic solvent, and storage time compared to laccase and provided reusability. DPDI-Cu proved promising for colorimetric detection of dopamine, epinephrine, catechol, tetracycline, and quercetin. The mechanism of oxidative detection of TC was studied through LC/MS analysis. DPDI-Cu-bentonite composite efficiently adsorbed tetracycline with maximum Langmuir adsorption of 208 mg/g. Moreover, DPDI/Cu and DPDI-Ag nanoparticles possessed antifungal activity exhibiting a minimum inhibitory concentration of 400 µg/mL and 3.12 µg/mL against Aspergillus flavus. Florescent dye tracking and SEM/TEM analysis confirmed that DPDI-Ag caused disruption of the plasma membrane and triggered ROS generation and apoptosis-like death in fungal cells. The DPDI-Ag coating treatment of wheat seeds confirmed the non-phytotoxicity of Ag-NPs.

Abstract
The toxicological effect between co-existed antibiotics and metal ions was dangerous to the ecological environment and public health. However, the rapid quantification tools with convenience, accuracy and low cost for the detection of multiple targets were still challenging. Herein, a portable tri-color ratiometric fluorescence paper sensor was constructed by coupling of blue carbon dots and fluorescence imprinted polymer for down/up conversion simultaneous detection of tetracycline and sulfamethazine. Interestingly, the cascade detection of aluminum ion was also realized based on the individual detection system of tetracycline without the assistance of complex coupling reagents. The detection limits of smartphone method for the visual detection of tetracycline, sulfamethazine and aluminum ion were calculated as 0.014 μM, 0.004 μM and 0.019 μM, respectively. The portable fluorescence paper sensor was applied for the visual detection of tetracycline, sulfamethazine and aluminum ion in actual samples successfully with satisfactory recoveries. With the advantages of rapidness, low cost, and portability, the developed portable fluorescence paper sensor provided a new strategy for the visual real-time detection of multiple targets.

Abstract
Worldwide abuse of tetracycline (TC) seriously threatens environmental safety and human health. Metal-TC complexes formed by residual TC in the environment can also contribute to the spread of antibiotic resistance. Therefore, monitoring of TC residues is still required. Here, we report novel aggregation-induced emission carbon dots (AIE-Cdots) as nanoaggregate probes for the rapid and selective detection of TC residue. Riboflavin precursors with rotational functional groups led to the development of AIE-Cdots. The aggregation of AIE-Cdots was induced selectively for Al3+, amplifying the fluorescence signals owing to the restricted rotation of the side chains on the AIE-Cdot surface. The fluorescence signal of such Al3+-mediated nanoaggregates (Al3+-NAs) was further triggered by the structural fixation of TC at the Al3+ active sites, suggesting the formation of TC-coordinated Al3+-NAs. A linear correlation was observed in the TC concentration range of 0-10 μM with a detection limit of 42 nM. In addition, the strong Al3+ binding affinity of AIE-Cdots produced similar NAs and enhanced fluorescence signals in Al3+-TC mixtures. These AIE-Cdots-based nanoplatforms have a rapid response, good selectivity, and reliable accuracy for detecting TC or aluminum complexes, meeting the requirements for hazardous substance monitoring and removal in environmental applications.

Abstract
Global water quality has deteriorated, leaving over 844 million individuals without access to clean drinking water. While sand filters (SF) offer a solution, their limited surface area and adsorption capacity for emerging contaminants remain a challenge. This has prompted the development of new materials such as graphene-coated sand (GCS) to enhance the sand's adsorptive properties. Notably, GCS also possesses inherent anti-bacterial properties and can function as a photocatalyst when exposed to UV and visible light, offering enhanced water purification. This manuscript 1) reviews the synthesis of GCS, detailing the characterization techniques employed to understand its structure, composition, and multifunctional properties and 2) highlights the superior efficacy of GCS in removing contaminants, including metals (>95 % removal of Cd2+, Pb2+, Zn2+, and Cu2+ in low pH environment), sulfides (full removal compared to 26 % removal by raw sand), antibiotics (98 % removal of tetracycline), and bacteria (complete cell membrane destruction), compared to traditional SF. Due to its enhanced performance and multifaceted purification capabilities, GCS presents a promising alternative to SFs, especially in developing countries, aiming to improve water quality and ensure safe drinking water access. To the best of our knowledge, no other work groups the available research on GCS. Furthermore, future research directions should focus on reducing the overall production cost of GCS, exploring surface modification techniques, and expanding the range of contaminants tested by GCS, to fully realize its potential in water purification.

Abstract
Lakes, crucial antibiotic reservoirs, lack thorough exploration of quantitative relationships between antibiotics and influencing factors. Here, we conducted a comprehensive year-long investigation in Changshou Lake within the Three Gorges Reservoir area, China. The concentrations of 21 antibiotics spanned 35.6-200 ng/L, 50.3-348 ng/L and 0.57-57.9 ng/g in surface water, overlying water and sediment, respectively. Compared with abundant water period, surface water and overlying water displayed significantly high antibiotic concentrations in flat and low water periods, while sediment remained unchanged. Moreover, tetracyclines, fluoroquinolones and erythromycin posed notable risks to algae. Six primary sources were identified using positive matrix factorization model, with aquaculture contributing 21.2%, 22.7% and 25.4% in surface water, overlying water and sediment, respectively. The crucial predictors were screened through machine learning, redundancy analysis and Mantel test. Our findings emphasized the pivotal roles of water quality parameters, including water temperature (WT), pH, dissolved oxygen, electrical conductivity, inorganic anions (NO3⁻, Cl⁻ and F⁻) and metal cations (Ca, Mg, Fe, K and Cr), with WT influencing greatest. Total nitrogen (TN), cation exchange capacity, K, Al and Cd significantly impacted sediment antibiotics, with TN having the most pronounced effect. This study can promise valuable insights for environmental planning and policies addressing antibiotic pollution.

Abstract
Exploring a rapid, sensitive, low-cost, in-situ intelligent monitoring multi-target fluorescence detection platform is important for food safety and environmental monitoring. A dual-mode ratiometric fluorescence sensing system integrated with a smartphone based on a luminescent metal-organic framework (NH2-MIL-53) and CdTe/Eu was developed for visual, in-situ analysis of Fe3+ and doxycycline (DOX) in this paper. Interestingly, with increasing Fe3+ concentration, the fluorescence sensing system exhibits dual-emission with CdTe QDs at 540 nM as the response signal and NH2-MIL-53 at 438 nm as the reference signal, resulting in a significant color shift of fluorescence color from blue-green to blue, with a linear range of 5--1550 nM and a detection limit of 1.08 nM. In the presence of DOX, the blue fluorescence of NH2-MIL-53 and the green fluorescence of CdTe QDs were quenched respectively by the internal filtering effect and the photoelectron transfer effect. While DOX enhances the red fluorescence of Eu3+ by the antenna effect, forming a triple-emission fluorescence sensor. The visual color of this fluorescent sensor shifted from blue green to grey to pink-white to pink to fuchsia to red as the DOX concentration increased with a detection limit of 0.11 nM. Furthermore, the developed intelligent sensing platform achieved real-time in-situ detection of Fe3+ and DOX with detection limit of 1.47 nM and 6.43 nM, respectively. The platform was applied to detection actual samples with satisfactory results, which proved a promising application for real-time on-site food safety monitoring and human health monitoring.

Abstract
Coexisting tetracycline (TC), dissolved organic matter (DOM), and metal cations in aqueous environments might form complexes and consequently affect the environmental fate of TC. In this study, the interactions among coexisting humic acid (HA), TC, and Mg(II) in solutions were investigated by equilibrium dialysis batch experiments and nuclear magnetic resonance hydrogen spectroscopy (1H NMR) characterization. In the binary systems, the dimethylamine (4Me2NH+) functional group on the A-ring of TC bound to the oxygen-containing functional groups of HA via hydrogen bond. The solution pH affected the agglomeration morphology and dissociation of the oxygen-containing functional groups of HA as well as protonation and spatial conformation of TC, which in turn affected the HA-TC interactions. The complexation sites and ratio of Mg(II) on TC affect the binding mode in the ternary system. When the TC-Mg(II) complexation ratio is 1:1, the B, C, and D rings of TC preferentially complex with Mg(II), resulting in the change of TC from an extended to a twisted conformation. At this time, Mg(II) had a weaker inhibitory effect on binding affinity between HA and TC. When the complexation ratio was 1:2, the second Mg(II) complexation deactivated the 4Me2NH + on the A ring and further stabilized TC twisted conformation, resulting in a stronger inhibitory effect on the binding of TC to HA. Under acidic conditions, the solution pH mainly caused the difficulty in forming TC-Mg(II) complexes. The inhibitory effect of Mg(II) on the binding between HA and TC is weaker than that under alkaline conditions.

Abstract
The class of insecticides known as neonicotinoid insecticides has gained extensive application worldwide. Two characteristics of neonicotinoid pesticides are excellent insecticidal activity and a wide insecticidal spectrum for problematic insects. Neonicotinoid pesticides can also successfully manage pest insects that have developed resistance to other insecticide classes. Due to its powerful insecticidal properties and rapid plant absorption and translocation, dinotefuran, the most recent generation of neonicotinoid insecticides, has been widely used against biting and sucking insects. Dinotefuran has a wide range of potential applications and is often used globally. However, there is growing evidence that they negatively impact the biodiversity of organisms in agricultural settings as well as non-target organisms. The objective of this review is to present an updated summary of current understanding regarding the non-target effects of dinotefuran; we also enumerated nano- and bio-based mitigation and management strategies to reduce the impact of dinotefuran on non-target organisms and to pinpoint knowledge gaps. Finally, future study directions are suggested based on the limitations of the existing studies, with the goal of providing a scientific basis for risk assessment and the prudent use of these insecticides.

Xu C, Zhao S, Wang SG, Song C. Enhanced photolysis of tetracycline by Zn(II): Role of complexation. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2024; 909:168484. [PMID: 37972777 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2023.168484] [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: 09/20/2023] [Revised: 11/02/2023] [Accepted: 11/09/2023] [Indexed: 11/19/2023]
Abstract
Zn(II) is a necessary additive during antibiotic production and aquaculture, leading to the coexistence of Zn(II) and antibiotics in aquatic environment, especially in receiving waters of pharmaceutical and aquaculture wastewater. However, the roles of Zn(II) in the photochemical behavior of antibiotics are still not clear, which limits the understanding of the fate of antibiotic in nature. In this study, tetracycline (TC) was selected as typical antibiotic to evaluate the effect of Zn(II) on antibiotic photolysis. The removal of TC was accelerated by 22.75 % with TC:Zn(II) molar ratio at 1:5. The mechanism of Zn(II)-induced TC photolysis was explored via reactive oxygen species (ROS) analysis and density functional theory (DFT) calculation for the first time. Zn(II) could enhance the formation of TC excited states and further produce more singlet oxygen (12.54 % higher than control group) to promote indirect photolysis. Besides, Zn(II) could react with TC via complexation, and the complex was more vulnerable to attack by reactive oxygen species due to more active sites. Furthermore, the structure and toxicity of intermediates were identified with mass spectrometer, T.E.S.T. and ECOSAR software. Zn(II) hardly changed the degradation path of TC, and TC was mainly degraded via ring opening, demethylation, deamidation, and hydrogen abstraction with more toxic intermediates than the parent molecule. This work is significant to better understand the environmental fate of antibiotics, and also provides new insight into wastewater treatment in the pharmaceutical and aquaculture industry.

Abstract
Simple ball milling technology can simultaneously improve the adsorption performance of adsorbents for heavy metals and organic pollutants and has attracted increasing attention. Iron-modified biochar (Fe@MBC) was prepared by one-step ball milling, and the characterization results proved that FeCl3 was successfully loaded on biochar. The removal rates of Cr(VI) and tetracycline hydrochloride (TC) by Fe@MBC were increased by 88.27% and 82.64% compared with BC. The average pore size, oxygen-containing functional groups and graphitization degree of Fe@MBC are higher than those of BC, which is more conducive to promoting adsorption. The adsorption isotherms show that the adsorption of Cr(VI) and TC on the Fe@MBC surface conforms to the Langmuir type of single-layer adsorption and the Freundlich model of multilayer adsorption, respectively. The maximum adsorption capacities of Cr(VI) and TC are 25.46 and 66.91 mg·g-1, respectively. Kinetic experiments show that the adsorption process is more consistent with the pseudo-second-order model of chemical adsorption. The adsorption process of Cr(VI) and TC on the Fe@MBC surface is a spontaneous endothermic process that becomes more obvious as the temperature increases. The increase in solution pH has a significant impact on the removal rate of Fe@MBC. When the pH value increased from 3 to 11, the adsorption rates decreased by 53.74% and 17.16%, respectively. The presence of PO43-, CO32-, K+, and Cu2+ significantly affects the adsorption of TC by Fe@MBC, and PO43- and CO32- also affect the adsorption of Cr(VI). Mechanistic studies show that ion exchange, electrostatic interaction, pore filling, and hydrogen bonding contribute to the removal of Cr(VI) and TC by Fe@MBC. The removal mechanism of Cr(VI) also involves complexation and redox reactions, and the removal mechanism of TC involves π-π bonds and van der Waals forces. The results show that Fe@MBC is a green and efficient adsorbent.

THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2023; 899:165702.

Abstract
Determining conditional stability constant (Kcond) is paramount in assessing complex stability, particularly in Fe(III) complexes that are prevalent in actual surface water and wastewater matrices. In this study, existing methods of Kcond determination were evaluated and a novel UV-Vis spectroscopy method was proposed based on the evaluation of these approaches. Model ligands (ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA), and oxalic acid (OA)), as well as common antibiotics (kanamycin (Kana) and tetracycline (TTC)), were employed to determine the Kcond of the Fe(III)-ligand complexes under neutral conditions (pH 6.5). The obtained fitting results revealed that the logKcond were in the order of Fe(III)-EDTA (7.08) > Fe(III)-NTA (4.67) > Fe(III)-OA (4.32) > Fe(III)-TTC (4.28) > Fe(III)-Kana (3.07). In addition to these single ligands, the methodology was extended to the Fe(III) complexation with humic acid (HA), a complex mixture of organic components, where the fitting result indicated a logKcond of 5.02 M-1. The method's application domain was analyzed by numerical analysis and combined with experimental results. The findings demonstrate that the proposed methodology possesses satisfactory measurement capability for Kcond ranging from 103 to 107 M-1, suggesting its broad applicability to the majority of complexes. This method can provide valuable insights into the impact of Fe(III) complexes within the water matrix.

Abstract
Tetracycline's (TC) incomplete self-photolysis by light irradiation generally produces toxic intermediate products, which posing serious harm to the aqueous environment. In order to diminish the environmental risks of TC self-photolysis, an iron(III)-alginate (Fe-SA) hydrogel assisted photocatalytic method was developed and the underlying mechanisms was also analyzed in this work. Under simulated sunlight, the photo-degradation efficiency of TC was 61.1% at pH 7.0 within 2 h. Importantly, four of the seven intermediate products that identified during the self-photolysis of TC were found toxic based on QSAR analysis. In contrast, the removal efficiency of TC could be improved to 87.4% by adding Fe-SA under the same conditions. Moreover, only two relatively weakly toxic intermediate products were detected after exposing to the Fe-SA photocatalytic system, indicating a significant reduction of the potential ecological risks caused by TC self-photolysis. Furthermore, the determination of reactive oxidation species (ROS) demonstrated that the addition of Fe-SA primarily facilitated the degradation of TC and the related toxic intermediate products through assisting the free radical (∙OH and ∙O2-) photocatalytic degradation pathway. Additionally, the photocatalytic application under actual sunlight conditions and the reusability experiments of Fe-SA further confirmed its effectiveness and low cost in removing TC. This study revealed the photodegradation mechanisms of TC from the perspective of the self-photolysis process, and also offering new insights into the removal of TC pollution in the environment.

Abstract
The aim of the work was primarily to determine the relationship between the doses of Fenton's reagents and the effectiveness of the ecotoxicity removal of aqueous solutions containing selected antibiotics. The degradation process of ampicillin, doxycycline, and tylosin in an acidic environment in the presence of H2O2 and FeSO4 was studied. The effect of reagent doses on the degree of degradation and identification of antibiotic transformation products was measured by the UPLC qTOF method. The degree of mineralisation was determined based on changes in the concentration of total organic carbon. The ecotoxicity of products was determined with commercial MARA® and MICROTOX® bioassays, as well as against unselected microorganisms from polluted rivers and wastewater treatment plant effluent. It was found that the complete degradation of antibiotics and the simultaneous elimination of the toxicity of the Fenton process products required the use of a precisely defined amount of reagents. When an insufficient dose of reactants was used, the post-reaction solutions contained antibiotic derivatives showing antimicrobial activity. On the other hand, the toxicity of the post-reaction solution against to microbiocenoses was observed when too high doses of H2O2 were used in the process. This effect resulted from the presence of unreacted reagent or other unidentified peroxides.

Abstract
The Aliivibrio fischeri bioassay was successfully applied in order to evaluate the acute effect of sulfamethoxazole (SMX), ciprofloxacin (CIP), chlortetracycline (CTC) and copper (Cu), alone or in binary, ternary, and overall mixture. The toxicity results are reported in terms of both effective concentrations, which inhibited 50% of the bacterium bioluminescence (EC50%), and in Toxic Units (TUs). The TUs were compared with predicted values obtained using the Concentration Addition model (CA). Finally, the toxicity of water extracts from a soil contaminated by the three antibiotics (7 mg Kg-1 each) in the presence/absence of copper (30 mg Kg-1) was also evaluated. Copper was the most toxic chemical (EC50: 0.78 mg L-1), followed by CTC (EC50: 3.64 mg L-1), CIP (96 mg L-1) and SMX (196 mg L-1). Comparing the TU and CA values of the mixtures, additive effects were generally found. However, a synergic action was recorded in the case of the CIP+Cu co-presence and antagonistic effects in the case of CTC+Cu and the ternary mixture (containing each antibiotic at 0.7 mg L-1), were identified. Soil water extracts did not show any toxicity, demonstrating the buffering ability of the soil to immobilize these chemicals.

Abstract
The interactions of drugs with iron are of interest in relation to the potential effects of iron-rich foods and iron supplements on sorption and bioavailability. Doxycycline (DOX), a member of the tetracycline class of broad-spectrum antibiotics, is frequently administered by oral route. In the digestive tract, DOX can be exposed to iron at different pH values (stomach pH 1.5-4, duodenum pH 5-6, distal jejunum and ileum pH 7-8). In relation to this, we analyzed the impact of pH on Fe3+-DOX complex formation. The optimal conditions for Fe3+-DOX complex formation are pH = 4 and [Fe3+]/[DOX] = 6 molar ratio. HESI-MS showed that Fe3+-DOX complex has 1:1 stoichiometry. Raman spectra of Fe3+-DOX complex indicate the presence of two Fe3+-binding sites in DOX structure: tricarbonylamide group of ring A and phenolic-diketone oxygens of BCD rings. The Fe3+-DOX complex formed at pH = 4 is less susceptible to oxidation than DOX at this pH. The increase of pH induces the decomposition of Fe3+-DOX complex without oxidative degradation of DOX. The pH dependence of Fe3+-DOX complex formation may promote unwanted effects of DOX, impeding the absorption that mainly takes place in duodenum. This could further result in higher concentrations in the digestive tract and to pronounced impact on gut microbiota.

Abstract
Laboratory rabbits are fed foods rich with cationic metals, and while fasting cannot empty gastric contents because of their coprophagic habits. This implies that, in rabbits, the oral bioavailability of chelating drugs could be modulated by the slow gastric emptying rates and the interaction (chelation, adsorption) with gastric metals. In the present study, we tried to develop a rabbit model with low amounts of cationic metals in the stomach for preclinical oral bioavailability studies of chelating drugs. The elimination of gastric metals was achieved by preventing food intake and coprophagy and administering a low concentration of EDTA 2Na solution one day before experiments. Control rabbits were fasted but coprophagy was not prevented. The efficacy of rabbits treated with EDTA 2Na was evaluated by comparing the gastric contents, gastric metal contents and gastric pH between EDTA-treated and control rabbits. The treatment with more than 10 mL of 1 mg/mL EDTA 2Na solution decreased the amounts of gastric contents, cationic metals and gastric pH, without causing mucosal damage. The absolute oral bioavailabilities (mean values) of levofloxacin (LFX), ciprofloxacin (CFX) and tetracycline hydrochloride (TC), chelating antibiotics, were significantly higher in EDTA-treated rabbits than those in control rabbits as follows: 119.0 vs. 87.2%, 9.37 vs. 13.7%, and 4.90 vs. 2.59%, respectively. The oral bioavailabilities of these drugs were significantly decreased when Al(OH)3 was administered concomitantly in both control and EDTA-treated rabbits. In contrast, the absolute oral bioavailabilities of ethoxycarbonyl 1-ethyl hemiacetal ester (EHE) prodrugs of LFX and CFX (LFX-EHE, CFX-EHE), which are non-chelating prodrugs at least in in vitro condition, were comparable between control and EDTA-treated rabbits irrespective of the presence of Al(OH)3, although some variation was observed among rabbits. The oral bioavailabilities of LFX and CFX from their EHE prodrugs were comparable with LFX and CFX alone, respectively, even in the presence of Al(OH)3. In conclusion, LFX, CFX and TC exhibited higher oral bioavailabilities in EDTA-treated rabbits than in control rabbits, indicating that the oral bioavailabilities of these chelating drugs are reduced in untreated rabbits. In conclusion, EDTA-treated rabbits were found to exhibit low gastric contents including metals and low gastric pH, without causing mucosal damage. Ester prodrug of CFX was effective in preventing chelate formation with Al(OH)3 in vitro and in vivo, as well as in the case of ester prodrugs of LFX. EDTA-treated rabbits are expected to provide great advantages in preclinical oral bioavailability studies of various drugs and dosage formulations. However, a marked interspecies difference was still observed in the oral bioavailability of CFX and TC between EDTA-treated rabbits and humans, possibly due to the contribution of adsorptive interaction in rabbits. Further study is necessary to seek out the usefulness of the EDTA-treated rabbit with less gastric contents and metals as an experimental animal.

J Environ Sci (China) 2023; 126:365-377. [PMID: 36503763 DOI: 10.1016/j.jes.2022.04.009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/16/2022] [Revised: 04/06/2022] [Accepted: 04/06/2022] [Indexed: 06/17/2023]
Abstract
This work presents efficient tetracycline (TC) antibiotics adsorption using a functional porous phosphate/carbonate composite (PCC). The PCC was fabricated by anion-exchange of phosphate on the surface of vaterite-phase calcium carbonate particle scaffolds. The PCC, having dense nanoporous network coverage with large surface area and pore volume, exhibited excellent TC adsorption in solution. Its adsorption isotherm fitted well to the Freundlich model, with a maximum adsorption capacity of 118.72 mg/g. The adsorption process was spontaneous, endothermic, and followed pseudo-second-order kinetics. From the XPS analysis, the hydrogen bonding and surface complexation were the key interactions in the process. In addition, a colorimetric TC detection method was developed considering its complexation with phosphate ions, originating from PCC dissolution, during adsorption. The method was used to detect TC in mg/L concentrations in water samples. Thus, the multifunctional PCC exhibited potential for use in TC removal and environmental remediation.

Abstract
Considering that microbial resistance to antibiotics is becoming an increasingly widespread problem, burn management, which usually includes the use of topical antimicrobial dressings, is still facing difficulties regarding their efficiency to ensure rapid healing. In this context, the main objective of this research is to include new oxytetracycline derivatives in polymeric-film-type dressings for the treatment of wounds caused by experimentally induced burns in rats. The structural and physico-chemical properties of synthesized oxytetracycline derivatives and the corresponding membranes were analyzed by FT-IR and MS spectroscopy, swelling ability and biodegradation capacity. In vitro antimicrobial activity using Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacterial strains and pathogenic yeasts, along with an in vivo study of a burn wound model induced in Wistar rats, was also analyzed. The newly obtained polymeric films, namely chitosan-oxytetracycline derivative membranes, showed good antimicrobial activity noticed in the tested strains, a membrane swelling ratio (MSR) of up to 1578% in acidic conditions and a biodegradation rate of up to 15.7% on day 7 of testing, which are important required characteristics for the tissue regeneration process, after the production of a burn. The in vivo study proved that chitosan-derived oxytetracycline membranes showed also improved healing effects which contributes to supporting the idea of using them for the treatment of wounds caused by burns.

Abstract
As a barrier against external toxic effects, extracellular polymeric substances (EPSs) directly affect the toxicity and removal efficiency of exogenous substances. The reaction of EPSs with exogenous substances has been taken into consideration. The contents of EPSs in sludge cultivated by different influent water vary greatly, which leads to great differences in the binding ability and reaction sequence between EPSs and exogenous substances. However, the results in this respect are very limited. In this study, the binding characteristics between exogenous tetracycline (TC)/copper ions (Cu2+) and EPSs from aerobic granular sludge cultured under single and coexisting TC/Cu2+ were assessed by three-dimensional fluorescence-parallel factor analysis. The pollutants in the influent water could directionally induce microorganisms to secrete more EPSs, while fluorescence substances in EPSs could combine with the exogenous substances to lessen their effects. In the presence of coexisting TC and Cu2+ in the influent water, the ability of fluorescence substances in EPSs to combine with exogenous TC or Cu2+ weakened, and humic substances in EPSs were more susceptible than protein substances to binding with exogenous substances. However, the reaction order between EPSs components and exogenous TC or Cu2+ was opposite, and the ability of fluorescence substances in EPSs to combine with exogenous TC or Cu2+ was enhanced under individual TC or Cu2+ existing in the influent water. This study provided new insights into the interaction between EPSs and exogenous substances.

Abstract
In the present study, a nanocomposite adsorbent based on mesoporous silica nanotubes (MSNTs) loaded with 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (3-APTES@MSNTs) was synthesized. The nanocomposite was employed as an effective adsorbent for the adsorption of tetracycline (TC) antibiotics from aqueous media. It has an 848.80 mg/g maximal TC adsorption capability. The structure and properties of 3-APTES@MSNT nanoadsorbent were detected by TEM, XRD, SEM, FTIR, and N2 adsorption-desorption isotherms. The later analysis suggested that the 3-APTES@MSNT nanoadsorbent has abundant surface functional groups, effective pore size distribution, a larger pore volume, and a relatively higher surface area. Furthermore, the influence of key adsorption parameters, including ambient temperature, ionic strength, initial TC concentration, contact time, initial pH, coexisting ions, and adsorbent dosage, had also been investigated. The 3-APTES@MSNT nanoadsorbent's ability to adsorb the TC molecules was found to be more compatible with Langmuir isothermal and pseudo-second-order kinetic models. Moreover, research on temperature profiles pointed to the process' endothermic character. In combination with the characterization findings, it was logically concluded that the 3-APTES@MSNT nanoadsorbent's primary adsorption processes involved interaction, electrostatic interaction, hydrogen bonding interaction, and the pore-fling effect. The synthesized 3-APTES@MSNT nanoadsorbent has an interestingly high recyclability of >84.6 percent up to the fifth cycle. The 3-APTES@MSNT nanoadsorbent, therefore, showed promise for TC removal and environmental cleanup.

Abstract
This study explores the impact of mediators and metal ions of laccase-mediated oxidation and ferrate(VI) oxidation for the simultaneous removal of tetracycline antibiotics (TCs) and sulfonamide antibiotics (SAs) and to effectively remove their antimicrobial activity. The results showed that the antimicrobial activity of tetracycline against Bacillus altitudinis and Escherichia coli was significantly reduced, and the antimicrobial activity of sulfamethoxazole against B. altitudinis disappeared completely after treatment with the laccase-ABTS system. The combination of 6.0 U/mL of laccase and 0.2 mmol/L of ABTS removed 100% of 20.0 mg/L of tetracycline after 1.0 min at pH 6.0 and 25.0 °C, whereas the removal ratio of 20.0 mg/L of sulfamethoxazole was only 6.7%. The Al3+ and Cu2+ ions promoted the oxidation, and the Mn2+ ion decelerated the oxidation of tetracycline and sulfamethoxazole by the laccase-mediator systems. In contrast, the antimicrobial activity of tetracycline against B. altitudinis and E. coli was shown to be significantly reduced, and the sulfamethoxazole still retained high antimicrobial activity against B. altitudinis after treatment with Fe(VI) oxidation. The removal ratio of 20.0 mg/L of tetracycline was 100% after 1.0 min of treatment with 982.0 mg/L of K2FeO4 at pH 6.0 and 25.0 °C, whereas the removal ratio of 20.0 mg/L of sulfamethoxazole was only 49.5%. The Al3+, Cu2+, and Mn2+ ions both decelerated the oxidation of tetracycline and sulfamethoxazole by Fe(VI) oxidation. In general, the combination of the laccase-ABTS system and Fe(VI) was proposed for the simultaneous treatment of TCs and SAs in wastewater and to effectively remove their antimicrobial activity.

Abstract
Antibiotics undergo a series of complex transport and transformation route after entering the environment; however, there is scarce information about the effects of the bacterial phosphate-solubilizing process on tetracycline (TC) transformation. In this study, Pseudomonas sp. TC952 was identified as phosphate-solubilizing bacterium with high phosphate-solubilizing ability even under TC stress; it could solubilize maximum phosphate with a production of 400 mg/L soluble phosphate in 2 days. TC did not affect phosphate solubilizing in a short time incubation, but slightly promoted in a long incubation time. TC was adsorbed by inorganic phosphate with high efficiency of 53.09% within 1 day. Four tetracycline antibiotic resistance and sixteen inorganic phosphate-solubilizing-related genes were identified in the genome, which revealed the phosphate-solubilizing mechanism was that strain TC952 secrete organic acid to resolve inorganic phosphate and also secrete siderophore to chelate inorganic phosphate. So, during the inorganic phosphate-solubilizing process of strain TC952, TC was de-adsorbed from inorganic phosphate, and the solution was acidified into pH 4.3 through secreting organic acid to dissolve inorganic phosphorus, which resulted in Ca2+ and PO43- releasing into the solution. Finally, the acidic condition and PO43- enhanced TC hydrolysis. The mechanism of phosphate-solubilizing process on TC removal and genome analysis provides us new insight of the TC migration and transformation route in the environment.

Abstract
Chlortetracycline (CTC), a widely used antibiotic, is recalcitrant and ubiquitous in the environment. Enzymatic degradation of CTC is an economical and efficient bioremediation method. In this work, recombinant Arthromyces ramosus peroxidase (rARP) at a concentration of 3.13 × 10-9 M was used to catalyze rapid degradation of CTC in water. The second-order rate constants of rARP showed up to 62-fold catalytic efficiency of horseradish peroxidase (HRP) toward CTC. The degradation half-life of CTC at the concentrations of 2 and 40 mg L-1 in wastewater under the rARP catalysis was, respectively, 5.3 and 5.7 min at 25 °C, and 2.7 and 3.1 min at 40 °C, which were up to 15-fold and 111-fold faster than HRP and laccase, respectively, but use of 3 % the amount of rARP as HRP. rARP catalyzed degradation of CTC at 2-40 mg L-1 in wastewater completed in 20-24 min, and its catalytic efficiency varied within only 2-fold at 25-40 °C. rARP showed only 2-3-fold discrepancy of catalytic efficiency among pH 5.0, 7.5 and 9.0. CTC under rARP catalysis underwent demethylation and oxidation to form nontoxic N-dedimethyl-9-hydroxy-CTC. The high catalytic efficiency of rARP agreed with a short distance between rARP's δN-His56 and CTC's dimethylamine N as indicated by docking simulation. rARP is a useful enzyme for CTC bioremediation.

Abstract
The combined pollution of antibiotics and heavy metals has attracted a worldwide attention in the recent years. 4-epianhydrotetracycline (EATC) is the major degradation product of tetracycline (TC), which has been detected frequently in environment and its concentration is even higher than TC under some circumstances. Cadmium (Cd) is a common heavy metal contaminant and has highly toxic to organisms, plants and humans even at low doses. In the present study, zebrafish (Danio rerio) embryo toxicity test was performed to investigate the single and combined effects of EATC and Cd on aquatic organisms. Exposure to EATC and Cd at environmentally relevant concentrations had a series of hazardous impacts on the embryonic development, including lethality, hatching rate, heart rate and teratogenic effects. Compared to the contaminant existed alone, combined pollution produced stronger toxicity, which appeared as the decreasing of heart rate and hatching rate, and the increasing of malformation of zebrafish embryos. After 96 h exposure, the reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels in zebrafish embryos were increased significantly, revealing that EATC-Cd co-exposure resulted in potential oxidative stress-induced damage. Acridine orange (AO) staining showed that combined exposure resulted in stronger cell apoptosis. The potential health risks of the combined pollution of EATC and Cd should be paid more attention to higher level vertebrates and humans.

MOLECULES (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 27:molecules27238498.

Abstract
Iron ions can be used to degrade tetracycline dispersed in nature. Studies of absorption and fluorescence spectra and quantum chemistry calculations showed that iron is more readily released from Fe(III)-citrate than from Fe(III)-EDTA, so Fe(III)-citrate (Fe(III)-Cit) is more suitable for tetracycline (TC) degradation. At 30 °C, a severe degradation of TC by Fe(III)-Cit occurred as early as after 3 days of incubation in the light, and after 5 days in the dark. In contrast, the degradation of TC by Fe(III)-EDTA proceeded very slowly in the dark. By the fifth day of incubation of TC with Fe(III)-Cit in darkness, the concentrations of the former compound dropped by 55% and 75%, at 20 °C and 30 °C, respectively. The decrease in tetracycline concentrations caused by Fe(III)-EDTA in darkness at the same temperatures was only 2% and 6%, respectively. Light increased the degradation rates of TC by Fe(III)-EDTA to 20% and 56% at 20 °C and 30 °C, respectively. The key role of the light in the degradation of tetracycline by Fe(III)-EDTA was thus demonstrated. The TC degradation reaction showed a second-order kinetics. The rate constants of Fe(III)-Cit-induced TC degradation at 20 °C and 30 °C in darkness were k = 4238 M-1day-1 and k = 11,330 M-1day-1, respectively, while for Fe(III)-EDTA were 55 M-1day-1 and 226 M-1day-1. In light, these constants were k = 15,440 M-1day-1 and k = 40,270 M-1day-1 for Fe(III)-Cit and k = 1012 M-1day-1 and 2050 M-1day-1 at 20 °C and 30 °C; respectively. A possible reason for the higher TC degradation rate caused by Fe(III)-Cit can be the result of its lower thermodynamical stability compared with Fe(III)-EDTA, which we confirmed with our quantum chemistry calculations. Two quantum chemistry calculations showed that the iron complex with EDTA is more stable (the free energy of the ensemble is 15.8 kcal/mol lower) than the iron complex with Cit; hence, Fe release from Fe(III)-EDTA is less effective.

Abstract
Antibiotic-metal complexes (AMCs) formed by antibiotics and metal ions have attracted considerable attentions in recent years. Although different removal methods for AMCs have been reported in the literature, very few investigations have focused on the mechanisms and toxic effects of antibiotic-metal coordination. This review briefly describes the structural characteristics of various commonly used antibiotics and the coordination mechanisms with metal ions. Considering the complexity of the real environment, various environmental factors affecting AMC formation are highlighted. The effects of AMCs on microbial community structure and the role of metal ions in influencing resistant genes from the molecular perspective are of interest within this work. The toxicities and mechanisms of AMCs on different species of biota are also discussed. These findings underline the need for more targeted detection and analysis methods and more suitable toxicity markers to verify the combination of antibiotics with metal ions and reveal environmental toxicities in future. This review presents an innovative idea that antibiotics combined with metal ions will change the toxicity and environmental behavior of antibiotics.

Abstract
Microplastics (MPs) could serve as vectors of antibiotics and heavy metals through sorption and desorption. However, the combined adsorption process of antibiotics and heavy metals on aged MPs has rarely been studied. In this study, combined adsorption/desorption of tetracycline (TC) and Cd(II) on/from polystyrene (PS) and polyethylene terephthalate (PET) MPs, as well as ultraviolet (UV) and H2O2 aged MPs, was investigated. The specific surface areas of the MPs increased after UV and H2O2 aging. Adsorption experiments showed that the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and Freundlich model fitted adsorption of TC and Cd(II) on all of the MPs. The adsorption capacities of TC and Cd(II) were higher on aged MPs than on the pristine MPs, especially on H2O2 treated MPs. TC adsorption on the MPs was hardly affected by Cd(II), and Cd(II) adsorption was not significantly affected by TC when the solution pH value was below 8.0. Cd(II) slightly enhanced TC adsorption on the MPs at pH 8.0, especially on the aged MPs. The TC adsorption capacities increased with increasing pH, reaching a maximum at pH 5.0 or 6.0, and they then decreased, while the largest level of Cd(II) adsorption was at approximately pH 6.0. Adsorption of TC and Cd(II) on the pristine and aged MPs was thermodynamically favorable and spontaneous. The trend of the desorption rates of TC and Cd(II) from the MPs in different background solutions was ultrapure water < surface water < simulated gastric fluid. The desorption rates of TC and Cd(II) from the aged MPs were lower than those from the pristine MPs. The results revealed the mechanism of the TC and Cd(II) combined adsorption process on aged MPs, which will provide insight for understanding the aging process and its potential effects on sorption and desorption of antibiotics and heavy metals in the real environment.

Abstract
This study conducted the first extensive and comprehensive investigation of the whole-scale sedimentary antibiotic concentration, possible drivers, environmental fate, and potential ecological risks in the Yangtze River. Totally, 20 antibiotics were detected in the sediments. Results revealed that the order of antibiotic abundance in sediment was fluoroquinolones > tetracyclines > macrolides > sulfonamides > amphenicols. The total antibiotic concentrations were 0.10-134.4 ng/g (mean: 11.88 ng/g). Of these, fluoroquinolones and tetracyclines were the two dominant antibiotic categories. The dominant occurrence of fluoroquinolones and tetracyclines in sediments suggested that the distribution coefficient (Kd) was one of the important factors to determine their fate. Correlation analysis demonstrated that antibiotic contamination was largely influenced by the local scale of animal husbandry, and the positive correlation between antibiotics and heavy metals was likely driven by their common source of contamination and the complexation. Environmental risk assessment showed that tetracycline and chlortetracycline exhibited potential risks from medium to high in the Yangtze River, although most of the compounds posed minimal and low risks. This work provided a valuable large-scale data set across the whole Yangtze River and revealed the contamination profile of antibiotics. Mitigation and management measures to reduce antibiotic inputs are needed for the Yangtze River basin.

Effects of Tetracycline on Scenedesmus obliquus Microalgae Photosynthetic Processes. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms231810544. [PMID: 36142466 PMCID: PMC9504007 DOI: 10.3390/ijms231810544] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/18/2022] [Revised: 09/06/2022] [Accepted: 09/07/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Tetracycline (TC) antibiotics can be detected worldwide in the aquatic environment due to their extensive use and low utilization efficiency, and they may affect the physiological processes of non-target organisms. In this study, the acute and sub-acute toxicities of TC on the freshwater microalga Scenedesmus obliquus were investigated with an emphasis on algal photosynthesis and transcription alterations during an 8 d TC exposure. The results showed that the IC10, IC30 and IC50 values were 1.8, 4.1 and 6.9 mg/L, respectively. During sub-acute exposure, the microalgae of the IC10 treatment was able to recover comparable growth to that of the control by day 7, while significantly lower cell densities were observed in the IC30 and IC50 treatments at the end of the exposure. The photosynthetic efficiency Fv/FM of S. obliquus first decreased as the TC concentration increased and then returned to a level close to that of the control on day 8, accompanied by an increase in photosynthetic activities, including light harvesting, electron transport and energy dissipation. Transcriptomic analysis of the IC10 treatment (1.8 mg/L TC) revealed that 2157 differentially expressed genes were up-regulated and 1629 were down-regulated compared with the control. KEGG and GO enrichments demonstrated that 28 photosynthesis-related genes involving light-harvesting chlorophyll protein complex, photosystem I, photosystem II, photosynthetic electron transport and enzymes were up-regulated, which may be the factor responsible for the enhanced photosynthesis and recovery of the microalgae. Our work may be helpful not only for gaining a better understanding of the environmental risk of TC at concentrations close to the real levels in natural waters, but also for explaining photosynthesis and related gene transcription induced by antibiotics.

Abstract
In this study, strontium ferrite (SF)-incorporated zeolite imidazole framework (ZIF-8) (SFZIF-8) that can simultaneously uptake Pb(II) and tetracycline (TC) in solution was synthesized and characterized. The physicochemical properties of the as-prepared SFZIF-8 were characterized by various functional groups, higher average pore diameter (3.414 nm), and stronger negative charge (-30.5 mV). Adsorption kinetics, isotherms, effect of various water conditions including solution pH and temperature, and reusability were studied to evaluate its adsorption performance. The adsorption capacity of SFZIF-8 was compared with that of commonly used adsorbents (powder and granular activated carbon). SFZIF-8 showed much higher adsorption performance (429.6 mg/g and 433.4 mg/g for Pb(II) and TC, respectively) than powder activated carbon (129.9 mg/g and 142.0 mg/g for Pb(II) and TC, respectively) and granular activated carbon (249.3 mg/g and 263.0 mg/g for Pb(II) and TC, respectively) in Pb(II) and TC binary solutions. The SFZIF-8 adsorption behaviors for the removal of Pb(II) and TC were explained by the pseudo-first-order and Langmuir models from the adsorption kinetics and isotherm experiments, respectively. The regenerated SFZIF-8 exhibited a competitive performance even after the third cycle. These results indicate that Pb(II) and TC can be removed with SFZIF-8 via electrostatic attraction, surface complexation, hydrogen bonding, and π-π interactions. Therefore, by exhibiting effective and efficient adsorption performance, SFZIF-8 nanocomposites can be utilized as alternative and promising adsorbents for the simultaneous removal of both Pb(II) and TC.

Abstract
In this work, nitrogen-doped carbon dots (NCDs) were introduced in different existent sites of titanate nanotubes (TNTs) by a facile synthesis, and their effects on surface potential, photoelectrochemical properties and simultaneous removal of coexisted Cu2+ and norfloxacin (NOR) performance in water were systematically investigated. Constructed NCDs-TNTs composite displayed superior performance towards the adsorption (ion exchange/coordination) of Cu2+ and adsorption-oxidization of NOR over the two individuals, mainly benefiting from the collaboration of NCDs in different existent states. The existence of TiNH chemical linkage was identified between TNTs and NCDs-OT (NCDs on the outer surface of TNTs), which not only modulates the surface potential to favor the external diffusion of Cu2+ or NOR+ from aqueous solution to the negatively charged NCDs-TNTs, but also facilitates the intraparticle transfer of contaminants to the reactive sites. In addition, the up-conversion light property of NCDs-OT and the interstitial NCDs-IT (NCDs on the inner surface of TNTs) doping in TNTs interact together to enable NCDs-IT-TNTs to fully absorb and utilize all visible light. The photoexcited electrons were further trapped by NCDs-OT to promote the photogenerated carrier separation. Adsorbed Cu2+ could also improve the performance of NCDs-TNTs toward NOR oxidization, mainly owing to the self-synchronous doping of adsorbed Cu2+ broadening light absorption area and acting as mediators for delivering electrons. This work provides unique insights into the structural design of composite materials for such combined contamination remediation in water.

Abstract
Antibiotics in the environment could undergo various processes with formation of transformation products, but little has been known about their occurrence and (eco)toxicological consequences. Here we investigated the occurrence and fate of nine transformation products of four tetracyclines (tetracycline, oxytetracycline, chlortetracycline and doxycycline) in three municipal wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) in Guangzhou, China. The results showed the detection of all the tetracyclines and their transformation products in the WWTPs, with mean concentrations ranging from 17.8 ng/L (anhydrotetracycline) to 49.1 ng/L (oxytetracycline) in influent, 3.03 ng/L (tetracycline) to 6.94 ng/L (4-epi-chlortetracycline) in effluent, and 19.8 ng/g (isochlortetracycline) to 503 ng/g (4-epi-tertracycline) in sludge, respectively. The transformation products of tetracycline, oxytetracycline, chlortetracycline and doxycycline accounted for 73%-83%, 26%-52%, 70%-73% and 69%-74% of total concentrations, respectively. The aqueous removal rates of tetracyclines and their transformation products in the three WWTPs ranged from 18.4% (demethyl-chlortetracycline) to 93.7% (oxytetracycline). Mass balance analysis based on both aqueous and solid phase showed that their removals were mainly attributed to the sludge adsorption. Residual tetracyclines and their transformation products in the effluents would pose no obvious ecological risks to three aquatic organisms (green algae, daphnia and fish). However, 43.5% of sludge samples had high risks from these tetracyclines and transformation products, especially the compounds with poor biodegradability. The results from this study suggest that transformation products should be included in future environmental monitoring and control.

Abstract
Residual antibiotics in wastewater have gained widespread attention because of their toxicity to humans and the environment. In this work, Cu-doped ZIF-8s (Cu-ZIF-8s) were successfully synthesized by the impregnation of Cu2+ in ZIF-8 and applied in the removal of ofloxacin (OFX) from water. Remarkably, excellent adsorption performance was obtained in Cu-ZIF-8s, especially for Cu-ZIF-8-1, in which the adsorption capacity (599.96 mg·g−1) was 4.2 times higher than that of ZIF-8 and superior to various adsorbents reported previously. The adsorption kinetics and adsorption isotherm follow the pseudo-second-order model and the Langmuir model, respectively. Furthermore, the removal efficiencies of OFX in Cu-ZIF-8-1 reached over 90% at low concentrations. It was revealed that electrostatic interaction and complexation play important roles in the adsorption process. In addition, the material can be regenerated by simple methods. Therefore, the obtained Cu-doped MOFs may have a promising application in the treatment of antibiotic-containing wastewater.

Abstract
Campylobacter species continue to remain critical pathogens of public health interest. They are responsible for approximately 500 million cases of gastroenteritis per year worldwide. Infection occurs through the consumption of contaminated food and water. Microbial risk assessment and source tracking are crucial epidemiological strategies to monitor the outbreak of campylobacteriosis effectively. Various methods have been proposed for microbial source tracking and risk assessment, most of which rely on conventional microbiological techniques such as detecting fecal indicator organisms and other novel microbial source tracking methods, including library-dependent microbial source tracking and library-independent source tracking approaches. However, both the traditional and novel methods have their setbacks. For example, while the conventional techniques are associated with a poor correlation between indicator organism and pathogen presence, on the other hand, it is impractical to interpret qPCR-generated markers to establish the exact human health risks even though it can give information regarding the potential source and relative human risk. Therefore, this article provides up-to-date information on campylobacteriosis, various approaches for source attribution, and risk assessment of bacterial pathogens, including next-generation sequencing approaches such as shotgun metagenomics, which effectively answer the questions of potential pathogens are there and in what quantities.

Saya L, Malik V, Gautam D, Gambhir G, Singh WR, Hooda S. A comprehensive review on recent advances toward sequestration of levofloxacin antibiotic from wastewater. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2022; 813:152529. [PMID: 34953830 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2021.152529] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/03/2021] [Revised: 12/15/2021] [Accepted: 12/15/2021] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
Among various classes of antibiotics, fluoroquinolones, especially Levofloxacin, are being administered on a large scale for numerous purposes. Being highly stable to be completely metabolized, residual quantities of Levofloxacin get accumulated into the food chain proving a great global threat for aquatic as well as terrestrial ecosystems. Various removal techniques including both conventional and advanced methods have been reported for this purpose. This review is a novel attempt to make a critical analysis of the recent advances made exclusively toward the sequestration of Levofloxacin from wastewater through an extensive literature survey (2015-2021). Adsorption and advanced oxidation processes especially photocatalytic degradation are the most tested techniques in which assorted nanomaterials play a significant role. Several photocatalysts exhibited up to 100% degradation of LEV which makes photocatalytic degradation the best method among other tested methods. However, the degraded products need to be further monitored in terms of their toxicity. Biological degradation may prove to be the most environment-friendly with the least toxicity, unfortunately, not much research is reported in the field. With these key findings and knowledge gaps, authors suggest the scope of hybrid techniques, which have been experimented on other antibiotics. These can potentially minimize the disadvantages of the individual techniques concurrently improving the efficiency of LEV removal. Besides, techniques like column adsorption, membrane treatment, and ozonation, being least reported, reserve good perspectives for future research. With these implications, the review will certainly serve as a breakthrough for researchers working in this field to aid their future findings.

Zheng M, Tang S, Bao Y, Daniels KD, How ZT, El-Din MG, Wang J, Tang L. Fully-automated SPE coupled to UHPLC-MS/MS method for multiresidue analysis of 26 trace antibiotics in environmental waters: SPE optimization and method validation. ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND POLLUTION RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2022; 29:16973-16987. [PMID: 34657257 DOI: 10.1007/s11356-021-15947-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/22/2021] [Accepted: 08/09/2021] [Indexed: 06/13/2023]
Abstract
Achieving simultaneous determination of antibiotic multiresidues in environmental waters by solid phase extraction (SPE) coupled with ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS) with detection limits ≤ ng L-1 is still a huge challenge. Moreover, the offline SPE procedure was performed manually, costly, and time-consuming, while the online SPE required precision pretreatment instruments that require highly-skilled personnel. In this paper, a fully automated SPE coupled with UHPLC-MS/MS method was developed for analysis of antibiotics (sulfonamides, quinolones, and macrolides) in water matrices. Sample preparation optimization included SPE materials and configuration (HLB disks), sample volume (500-1000 mL), and pH (pH = 3) with a flow rate at 2~5 mL min-1, and an elution procedure with 2 × 6 mL methanol, and 2 × 6 mL acetone. Meanwhile, the parameters for UHPLC-MS/S detection of analytes were optimized, including LC retention time, and MS parameters. The instrumental limits of detection (LOD) and quantification (LOQ) of analytes ranged from 0.01-0.72 μg L-1 and 0.05-2.39 μg L-1, respectively, with satisfactory linear calibration (R2 > 0.995) and precision (< 9.9%). Recoveries in spike samples ranged between 77.5-104.9% in pure water, 59.4-97.8% in surface water (SW), and 58.2-108.6% in wastewater effluent (WWE) with relative standard deviations ≤ 12.8%. The matrix effects observed for most analytes were suppression (0-28.1%) except for five analytes having presented enhancement (0-14.6 %) in SW or WWE. This method can basically meet the needs of trace antibiotic residues detection in waters, with examples of concentrations of detected antibiotics being lower than LOQ (LLQ) -94.47 ng L-1 in WWEs and LLQ-15.47 ng L-1 in SW in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River Basin.

Abstract
Co-pollution of antibiotics and metals is prevailing in aquatic environments. However, risks of coexisted antibiotics and metals on aquatic organisms is unclear. This study investigated the combined toxicity of antibiotics and metals towards Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803, a cyanobacterium. We found that the joint toxicity of antibiotics and metals is dependent on their interplays. The complexation between chlortetracycline (CTC) and copper/cadmium (Cu(II)/Cd(II)) resulted in their antagonistic toxicity. Contrarily, an additive toxicity was found between florfenicol (FLO) and Cu(II)/Cd(II) due to lack of interactions between them. CTC facilitated the intracellular uptake of Cu(II) and Cd(II) by increasing the membrane permeability. However, FLO had no obvious effects on the internalization of metals in Synechocystis sp. Proteomic analysis revealed that the photosynthetic proteins was down-regulated by CTC and FLO, and ribosome was the primary target of FLO. These results were verified by parallel reaction monitoring (PRM). Cu(II) induced the up-regulation of iron-sulfur assembly, while Cd(II) disturbed the cyclic electron transport in Synechocystis sp. The co-exposure of CTC and metals markedly alleviated the dysregulation of proteins, while the co-exposure of FLO and metals down-regulated biological functions such as ATP synthesis, photosynthesis, and carbon fixation of Synechocystis sp., compared with their individuals. This supports their joint toxicity effects. Our findings provide better understanding of combined toxicity between multiple pollutants in aquatic environments.

Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate the chemical form variation of Mn in Phytolacca acinosa Roxb. residue under different pyrolysis temperatures and its contribution to decontamination efficacy of lead (Pb(II)) and tetracycline (TC). The results illuminated that pyrolysis temperature is a crucial factor of fraction and bioavailability of Mn and other heavy metals in the resultant biochar and pyrolysis temperature under 450 °C may be most suitable for reutilization without potential risk. The Mn-enriched phytolaccaceae biochar (PSB450) exhibited more preferential sorption toward Pb(II) (279.33 mg/g) and TC (47.51 mg/g) than pristine phytolaccaceae biochar in the single system, mainly due to the formation of MnOx and Mn minerals via pyrolysis. Binary adsorption showed that Pb(II) would serve as a bridge between PSB450 and TC by complexation within a limited concentration range, thus facilitating their joint decontamination. This study provided an efficient alternative approach for reutilization of Mn-contaminated biomass.

Abstract
Antibiotics are widely applied to prevent and treat diseases occurred in mariculture. The often-open nature of mariculture production systems has led to antibiotic residue accumulation in the culturing and adjacent environments, which can adversely affect aquatic ecosystems, and even human. This review summarizes the occurrence, environmental behavior, and ecological effects of antibiotics in mariculture systems based on peer-reviewed papers. Forty-five different antibiotics (categorized into ten groups) have been detected in mariculture systems around the world, which is far greater than the number officially allowed. Indiscriminate use of antibiotics is relatively high among major producing countries in Asia, which highlights the need for stricter enforcement of regulations and policies and effective antibiotic removal methods. Compared with other environmental systems, some environmental characteristics of mariculture systems, such as high salinity and dissolved organic matter (DOM) content, can affect the migration and transformation processes of antibiotics. Residues of antibiotics favor the proliferation of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). Antibiotics and ARGs alter microbial communities and biogeochemical cycles, as well as posing threats to marine organisms and human health. This review may provide a valuable summary of the effects of antibiotics on mariculture systems.

TC952 through regulation of extracellular polymeric substances composition and production. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2022; 804:149907. [PMID: 34517307 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2021.149907] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/02/2021] [Revised: 08/17/2021] [Accepted: 08/22/2021] [Indexed: 06/13/2023]
Abstract
The objective of this work is to elucidate the mechanism of tetracycline (TC) removal by Pseudomonas sp. TC952. The TC removal characteristics of strain TC952 under various environmental conditions were studied. Results showed that the bio-removal efficiency was significantly affected by initial TC and peptone concentration, pH values, divalent metal ion (Zn2+) and carbon source, and the strain TC952 efficiently removed approximately 72.8% of TC within 6 days with 10 g/L peptone. The best conditions for strain TC952 to remove TC are as follows: initial TC concentration is 50 mg/L, solution initial pH is 7, Zn2+ concentration is 0.1 μg/L, carbon source is peptone. And through intra- and extracellular fractions assay and extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) component analysis, TC removal by strain TC952 was mainly attributed to the adsorption by bacterial EPS and bacterial cell. Furthermore, different carbon source affected the EPS production content and component of strain TC952, so EPS produced under peptone and serine conditions could bio-adsorb TC and formed a buffer area outside the cells, thus reducing or preventing TC from entering the bacteria cells. All the results obtained showed that secretion of EPS and adsorption of TC by EPS and bacterial cell wall may be a common way for bacteria to reduce TC in the environment, which brought novel insights for better management of TC contamination by functional bacteria and for understanding the natural removal process of antibiotics by microorganisms in the environment.
