Cotransport of nanoplastics and plastic additive bisphenol AF (BPAF) in unsaturated hyporheic zone: Coupling effects of surface functionalization and protein corona. WATER RESEARCH 2024; 256:121574. [PMID: 38593606 DOI: 10.1016/j.watres.2024.121574] [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: 11/07/2023] [Revised: 04/02/2024] [Accepted: 04/04/2024] [Indexed: 04/11/2024]
Abstract
The ecological risk of combined pollution from microplastics (MPs) and associated contaminants usually depends on their interactions and environmental behavior, which was also disturbed by varying surface modifications of MPs. In this study, the significance of surface functionalization and protein-corona on the cotransport of nanoplastics (NPs; 100 nm) and the related additive bisphenol AF (BPAF) was examined in simulated unsaturated hyporheic zone (quartz sand; 250-425 μm). The electronegative bovine serum albumin (BSA) and electropositive trypsin were chosen as representative proteins, while pristine (PNPs), amino-modified (ANPs), and carboxyl-modified NPs (CNPs) were representative NPs with different charges. The presence of BPAF inhibited the mobility of PNPs/CNPs, but enhanced the release of ANPs in hyporheic zone, which was mainly related to their hydrophobicity changes and electrostatic interactions. Meanwhile, the NPs with high mobility and strong affinity to BPAF became effective carriers, promoting the cotransport of BPAF by 16.4 %-26.4 %. The formation of protein-coronas altered the mobility of NPs alone and their cotransport with BPAF, exhibiting a coupling effect with functional groups. BSA-corona promoted the transport of PNPs/CNPs, but this promoting effect was weakened by the presence of BPAF via increasing particle aggregation and hydrophobicity. Inversely, trypsin-corona aggravated the deposition of PNPs/CNPs, but competition deposition sites and increased energy barrier caused by coexisting BPAF reversed this effect, facilitating the cotransport of trypsin-PNPs/CNPs in hyporheic zone. However, BPAF and protein-coronas synergistically promoted the mobility of ANPs, owing to competition deposition sites and decreased electrostatic attraction. Although all of the NPs with two protein-coronas reduced dissolved BPAF in the effluents via providing deposition sites, the cotransport of total BPAF was improved by the NPs with high mobility (BSA-PNPs/CNPs) or high affinity to BPAF (BSA/trypsin-ANPs). However, the trypsin-PNPs/CNPs inhibited the transport of BPAF due to their weak mobility and adsorption with BPAF. The results provide new insights into the role of varying surface modifications on NPs in the vertical cotransport of NPs and associated contaminants in unsaturated hyporheic zone.

Abstract
There is little information on how widespread surfactants affect the adsorption of norfloxacin (NOR) onto iron oxide minerals. In order to elucidate the effects of various surfactants on the adsorption characteristics of NOR onto typical iron oxides, we have explored the different influences of sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate (SDBS), an anionic surfactant, and didodecyldimethylammonium bromide (DDAB), a cationic surfactant, on the interactions between NOR and ferrihydrite under different solution chemistry conditions. Interestingly, SDBS facilitated NOR adsorption, whereas DDAB inhibited NOR adsorption. The adsorption-enhancement effect of SDBS was ascribed to the enhanced electrostatic attraction, the interactions between the adsorbed SDBS on ferrihydrite surfaces and NOR molecules, and the bridging effect of SDBS between NOR and iron oxide. In comparison, the adsorption-inhibition effect of DDAB owning to the adsorption site competitive adsorption between NOR and DDAB for the effective sites as well as the steric hindrance between NOR-DDAB complexes and the adsorbed DDAB on ferrihydrite surfaces. Additionally, the magnitude of the effects of surfactants on NOR adsorption declined with increasing pH values from 5.0 to 9.0, which was related to the amounts of surfactant binding to ferrihydrite surfaces. Moreover, when the background electrolyte was Ca2+, the enhanced effect of SDBS on NOR adsorption was caused by the formation of NOR-Ca2+-SDBS complexes. The inhibitory effect of DDAB was due to the DDAB coating on ferrihydrite, which undermined the cation-bridging effect. Together, the findings from this work emphasize the essential roles of widely existing surfactants in controlling the environmental fate of quinolone antibiotics.

Abstract
This study aims to understand how surfactants affect the mobility of tetracycline (TC), an antibiotic, through different aquifer media. Two anionic and cationic surfactants, sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate (SDBS) and cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB), were used to study their influence on TC mobility through clean sand and humic acid (HA)-coated sand. HA coating inhibits TC mobility due to its strong interaction with TC. Both surfactants promoted TC mobility at pH 7.0 due to competitive deposition, steric effect, and increased hydrophilicity of TC. CTAB had a more substantial effect than SDBS, related to the surfactants' molecular properties. Each surfactant's promotion effects were greater in HA-coated sand than in quartz sand due to differences in surfactant retention. CTAB inhibited TC transport at pH 9.0 due to its significant hydrophobicity effect. Furthermore, in the presence of Ca2+, SDBS enhanced TC transport by forming deposited SDBS-Ca2+-TC complexes. On the other hand, CTAB increased TC mobility due to its inhibition of cation bridging between TC and porous media. The findings highlight surfactants' crucial role in influencing the environmental behaviors of tetracycline antibiotics in varied aquifers.

Abstract
Antibiotic exist in various states after entering agricultural soil through the application of manure, including the aqueous state (I), which can be directly absorbed by plants, and the auxiliary organic extraction state (III), which is closely associated with the pseudo-permanence of antibiotics. However, effective analytical methods for extracting and affecting factors on fractions of different antibiotic states remain unclear. In this study, KCl, acetonitrile/Na2EDTA-McIlvaine buffer, and acetonitrile/water were successively used to extract states I, II, and III of 21 antibiotics in soil, and the recovery efficiency met the quantitative requirements. Random forest classification and variance partitioning analysis revealed that dissolved organic matter, pH, and organic matter were important factors affecting the recovery efficiency of antibiotic in states I, II, and III, respectively. Additionally, 65-day spiked soil experiments combined with Mantel test analysis suggested that pH, organic acids, heavy metals, and noncrystalline minerals differentially affected antibiotic type and state. Importantly, a structural equation model indicated that organic acids play a crucial role in the fraction of antibiotic states. Overall, this study reveals the factors influencing the fraction of different antibiotic states in soil, which is helpful for accurately assessing their ecological risk.

Abstract
Soil nanocolloids are highly mobile and can act as carriers for the transport of antibiotics to a wider and deeper range of soils; however, the inherent behavior and mechanism of nanocolloid-carrying antibiotics in soil remain unclear. In this study, we conducted a comprehensive investigation of the migration of antibiotics in paddy red soil during the organic fertilization process using four common soil nanocolloids: kaolin (KL), montmorillonite (MT), hematite (HT), and humic acid (HA). The results showed that nanocolloid carriers promoted the intra-medium (from soil surface to the bottom) and inter-medium transfer (from organic fertilizers to soil) of antibiotics. The migration mechanisms of antibiotics carried by the nanocolloids differed: the phenolic hydroxyl and carboxyl groups of HA esterified with the carboxyl groups of quinolones and phenolic hydroxyl groups of tetracyclines, respectively, while the oxygen atoms of HT formed stabilizing complexes with the soil, which could further adsorb antibiotics using their functional group-rich complexes. Smaller antibiotic compounds were adsorbed in the metal oxide interlayer of MT via cation exchange, whereas KL adsorbed antibiotics on its metal oxide surface layer in the same way but were susceptible to desorption. Additionally, nanocolloids changed the adsorption capacity of soil for antibiotics and influenced the enrichment of dominant/functional bacteria (e.g., Burkholderiaceae) and thus varied the vertical distribution of antibiotics in soil. These findings enhance our understanding of the migration behavior and mechanism of nanocolloid-carrying antibiotics in red paddy soil and provide a theoretical foundation for preventing and controlling antibiotic pollution in arable systems.

Sorption of oxytetracycline to microsized colloids under concentrated salt solution: A perspective on terrestrial-to-ocean transfer of antibiotics.

Abstract
The sorption of antibiotics on soil minerals and their cotransport have been widely studied for the past few years; however, these processes in concentrated salt solutions (estuary-like conditions) are not fully understood. This study aims to determine the possible sorption of oxytetracycline (OTC) on various natural and synthesized microsized minerals (including haematite, goethite, kaolinite, bentonite, lateritic, kaolinitic and illitic soil clays) under conditions mimicking pure, fresh, brackish and sea waters. The sorption of OTC was found to decrease in surface charge (herein zeta potential), hence altering the colloidal properties of the materials used. The sorption capacities of soil clays for OTC follow the inequality illitic soil clay > kaolinitic soil clay > lateritic soil clay, and the sorption capacities were found to decrease at higher salt concentrations. Seawater can intensify the release of the sorbed OTC from soil clay surfaces while favouring the coaggregation of the remaining OTC with soil clays. This implies that the long-range transport of OTC or other similar antibiotics can be governed by the mineralogical composition/properties of the suspended particles. More importantly, increasing salt concentrations in estuaries may form a chemical barrier at which limited amounts of OTC/antibiotics can pass through, while the remaining OTC/antibiotics can be favoured to aggregate simultaneously with suspended mineral particles.

Abstract
To date, little information is available regarding the impacts of the widespread anionic surfactants on the adsorption behaviors of antibiotics onto typical iron oxides. Herein, we have investigated the effects of two typical surfactants (sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate (SDBS)) on the adsorption of two widely used antibiotics (i.e., levofloxacin (LEV) and ciprofloxacin (CIP)) onto ferrihydrite. Results of kinetic experiments showed that the adsorption of antibiotics was well fitted by the pseudo-second-order kinetic models, indicating that the adsorption process might be controlled by chemisorption. The affinity of ferrihydrite toward CIP was greater than that toward LEV, which was ascribed to the higher hydrophobicity of CIP than LEV. Both surfactants enhanced antibiotic adsorption owing to SDS or SDBS molecules as bridge agents between ferrihydrite particles and antibiotics. Interestingly, the extent of the enhanced effects of surfactants on antibiotic adsorption declined as the background solution pH increased from 5.0 to 9.0, which was mainly due to the weaker hydrophobic interactions between antibiotics and the adsorbed surfactants on the iron oxide surfaces as well as the greater electrostatic repulsion between the anionic species of antibiotics and the negatively charged ferrihydrite particles at higher pH. Together, these findings emphasize the importance of widespread surfactants for illustrating the interactions between fluoroquinolone antibiotics and iron oxide minerals in the natural environment.

Abstract
Particles are ubiquitous and abundant in natural waters and play a crucial role in the fate and bioavailability of organic pollution. In the present study, natural mineral (kaolinites, KL), organic (humic/fulvic acid, HA/FA) and their composite particles were further separated into particles fractions (PFs, >1 μm) and colloidal fractions (CFs, 1 kDa-1 μm) by cross-flow ultrafiltration (CFUF). This research demonstrated the role of kaolinite-humic composite colloids on the adsorption of fluoroquinolone norfloxacin (NOR). The Freundlich model satisfactory described adsorption curves, showing strong affinity of NOR to CFs, with sorption capacity (KF) between 8975.50 and 16638.13 for NOR. The adsorption capacities of NOR decreased with the particle size increasing from CFs to PFs. In addition, composite CFs showed excellent adsorption capacity, which was mainly attributed to the larger specific surface area of composite CFs and electronegativity and numerous oxygen-containing functional groups on the surfaces of the complexes, and electrostatic attraction, hydrogen bond and cation exchange could dominate the NOR adsorption onto the composite CFs. The best pH value under adsorption condition of composite CFs varied from weakly acidic to neutral with the increase of load amount of humic and fulvic acids on the surface of inorganic particles. The adsorption decreased with higher cation strength, larger cation radius and higher cation valence, which depended on the surface charge of colloids and the molecular shape of NOR. These results provided insight into the interfacial behaviors of NOR on the surfaces of natural colloids and promoted the understanding of the migration and transport of antibiotics in environmental systems.

Abstract
Transport of graphene-based nanomaterials in porous media is closely related to background cations. This study examines the impacts of ionic specificity on the mobility of graphene oxide (GO) and reduced GO (RGOs) in saturated quartz sand. The transport of GO/RGOs as affected by monovalent cation Na+ followed extended Derjaguin-Landau-Verwey-Overbeek (XDLVO) theory, whereas in solutions containing multivalent cations Zn2+ and Al3+, cation bridging effect played a dominant role in the transport inhibition. Moreover, the adverse effects of the divalent cations on GO/RGOs migration obeyed the Hofmeister series, i.e. following the order of Pb2+ > Cd2+ > Zn2+. Batch adsorption experiments and DFT calculations further confirmed that cations of higher valences, and of the same valence but with larger ionic radii (smaller hydrated radii) interacted more strongly with GO/RGOs and sand grains via forming inner-sphere complexes. Thus, more favorable retention was observed through cation bridging between particles and collectors, and also via enhanced straining caused by particles aggregation. Furthermore, the sulfide-reduced GO (SR-GO) that contained more surface O-functional groups was impacted more remarkably by strong complexing cations than the pristine GO (P-GO), while the mobility of poorly functionalized irradiation-reduced GO (IR-GO) was less affected by cation bridging effect.

Abstract
The current state of knowledge on the transport behaviors of oxytetracycline (OTC, a typical tetracycline antibiotic) in porous media with heterogeneous chemical surfaces is inadequate. In this work, the mobility properties of OTC through saturated porous media with different chemical heterogeneities (i.e., quartz sand, montmorillonite (MMT)-, humic acid (HA)-, and goethite (Goe)-coated sands) were investigated. In comparison with the mobility of OTC in the quartz sand, HA and goethite coatings inhibited the mobility of OTC, whereas montmorillonite coating enhanced OTC mobility. HA coating inhibited the transport of OTC that stemmed from the strong interactions between HA and OTC via complexation, π-π stacking, hydrogen bonding, and hydrophobic interaction. The positively charged iron oxide coating on Goe-coated sand provided favorable sites for OTC deposition through complexation and electrostatic attraction. The enhanced transport of OTC through MMT-coated sand was mainly due to the strong electrostatic repulsion between the anionic OTC species (i.e., OTC-) and negatively charged porous media. Solution pH (5.0-9.0) posed a negligible effect on the trend of OTC mobility in different porous media. Furthermore, Ca2+ inhibited the transport of OTC mobility through various porous media via cation-bridging. The findings of this work contribute significantly to our understanding of the influence of aquifer surface chemical heterogeneities on OTC mobility behaviors in the subsurface environment.

Abstract
Colloid-mediated contaminant mobility is absolutely critical for the environmental behavior of contaminants such as antibiotics in water resources. In this study, the influences of phosphate (a commonly inorganic ligand in the environment) on the ferrihydrite colloid-mediated transport of tetracycline (TC, a typical antibiotic) in porous media were investigated. In the absence of colloids, phosphate promoted TC mobility due to the competitive deposition of phosphate and TC on the sand surface as well as the electrostatic repulsion. Interestingly, ferrihydrite colloids could inhibit TC transport; however, the inhibitory effect of the colloids was weakened by the addition of phosphate. This phenomenon stemmed from colloid-associated TC mobility, the increased electrostatic repulsion induced by adsorbed phosphate, and deposition site competition effect. Another interesting finding was that the impacts of phosphate on the colloid-mediated mobility of TC were pH-dependent. That is, phosphate exhibited a weaker effect on the inhibitory role of ferrihydrite colloids in TC mobility at pH 5.0 than that at pH 7.0; specially, ferrihydrite colloids acted as possible carriers of TC and facilitated antibiotic transport at pH 9.0. The observations were ascribed to different influences of phosphate on the binding affinity of ferrihydrite toward TC and the mobility of free TC under different pH conditions. Therefore, the findings of this study provide useful information about the fate and co-transport of antibiotics and natural mineral colloids in the presence of inorganic ligands in the aquatic environment.

Abstract
Presently, as the prevalent pyrolysis atmospheres, N2 is widely used, while air-limitation and CO2 are rarely considered, to produce biochar to adsorb tetracycline. This study thus used N2, CO2, and air-limitation to produce various biochars at 300 ∼ 750 °C, and explored their structure-performance relationship for tetracycline sorption. The maximum sorption capacities of biochars produced in CO2 and air-limitation were 55.36 mg/g and 71.11 mg/g (at 750 °C), respectively, being 2.34 and 3.01 times that of biochars produced in N2 (23.60 mg/g at 750 °C). Interestingly, except for high pore volume and specific surface area supported pore filling and sites providing effect, ash (containing metal cations, P-O, and S=O) induced complexing effect was the primary mechanism for tetracycline sorption, rather than hydrophobic effect, π-π interaction, and hydrogen bond caused by C composition. This study provides important information about adjusting the pyrolysis atmosphere to improve the sorption performance of biochar toward tetracycline.

Abstract
To date, there is still very little knowledge about the combined effects of typical inorganic ligands and solution pH values on mobility characteristics of tetracycline (TC) through saturated aquifer media. In this work, three typical inorganic ligands (i.e., phosphate, silicate, and iodate) were employed in the transport experiments. Generally, all the ligands promoted TC mobility over the pH range of 5.0-9.0 owing to the enhanced electrostatic repulsion between sand grains and TC anionic forms (i.e., TC- and TC2-) as well as the competitive deposition between ligands and antibiotic molecules for attachment sites. Furthermore, the transport-enhancement effects of ligands on TC intensively depended on ligand type and followed the sequence of phosphate > silicate > iodate. This phenomenon was ascribed to their different molecular sizes and binding abilities to sand grains. Interestingly, the differences in extents of enhanced effects of various inorganic ligands on TC transport varied with background solution pH due to pH-induced different extents of deposition site competition effects. Moreover, the two-site nonequilibrium model (which accounts for an equilibrium site and a kinetic site) as well as adsorption and kinetic studies were performed to help interpret the controlling mechanisms for the synergistic effects of inorganic ligands and solution pH on TC transport in saturated quartz sand. The findings of our study clearly demonstrate that inorganic ligands may be critical factors in assessing the fate and transport of antibiotics in groundwater systems.

TOXICS 2022; 10:toxics10060332.

Abstract
This study conducted laboratory column experiments to systematically examine the transport of novel heteroaggregates of montmorillonite (Mt) microparticles with nanoscale zerovalent irons (nZVIs) in saturated sand at solution ionic strengths (ISs) ranging from 0.001 to 0.2 M. Spherical nZVIs were synthesized using the liquid phase reduction method and were attached on the plate-shaped Mt surfaces in monolayer. While complete deposition occurred for nZVIs in sand, significant transport was observed for Mt-nZVI heteroaggregates at IS ≤ 0.01 M despite the transport decrease with an increasing loading concentration of nZVIs on Mt. The increased mobility of Mt-nZVI heteroaggregates was because the attractions between nZVIs and sand collectors were reduced by the electrostatic repulsions between the Mt and the collector surfaces, which led to a decreased deposition in the sand columns. Complete deposition occurred for the Mt-nZVI heteroaggregates at IS ≥ 0.1 M due to a favorable deposition at Derjaguin–Landau–Verwey–Overbeek (DLVO) primary energy minima. Interestingly, a large fraction of the deposited heteroaggregates was released by reducing IS because of a monotonic decrease of interaction energy with separation distance for the heteroaggregates at low ISs (resulting in repulsive forces), in contrast to the irreversible deposition of nZVIs. Therefore, the fabricated heteroaggregates could also have high mobility in subsurfaces with saline pore water through continuous capture and release using multiple injections of water with low ISs. Our study was the first to examine the transport of heteroaggregates of a plate-like particle with spherical nanoparticles in porous media; the results have important implications in the use of nanoscale zerovalent iron for in situ soil and groundwater remediation.
