MARINE ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2024; 202:106754. [PMID: 39317087 DOI: 10.1016/j.marenvres.2024.106754] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/23/2024] [Revised: 08/14/2024] [Accepted: 09/15/2024] [Indexed: 09/26/2024]
Abstract
This study investigated the impacts of sulfamethazine (SMZ) and oxytetracycline (OTC) antibiotics on the marine microalgae Nitzschia closterium and its release of volatile halocarbons (VHCs), which contribute to ozone depletion and climate change. High concentrations of SMZ and OTC suppressed cell density, reduced chlorophyll a content, and hindered Fv/Fm elevation in N. closterium, indicating its growth was inhibited. The exposure of N. closterium to antibiotics led to increased reactive oxygen species (ROS), reduced soluble protein content, and heightened catalase (CAT) activity, indicative of increased oxidative stress. This stress increased the release of three VHCs (CHBrCl2, CHBr2Cl, and CHBr3). Ship-borne experiments showed that high phytoplankton biomass was linked to high VHC release. Notably, the production and release of VHCs were significantly higher in the high-concentration antibiotic group (100 μg/L) than the low-concentration group (0.1 μg/L). These findings suggested that antibiotics induce excess ROS in algal cells, stimulating VHC production and release.

Plastic particles and fluorescent brightener co-modify Chlorella pyrenoidosa photosynthesis and a machine learning approach predict algae growth. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2024; 477:135406.

Abstract
Global release of plastics exerts various impacts on the ecological cycle, particularly on primary photosynthesis, while the impacts of plastic additives are unknown. As a carrier of fluorescent brightener, plastic particles co-modify Chlorella pyrenoidosa (C. pyrenoidosa) growth and its photosynthetic parameters. In general, adding to the oxidative damage induced by polystyrene, fluorescent brightener-doped polystyrene produces stronger visible light and the amount of negative charge is more likely to cause photodamage in C. pyrenoidosa leading to higher energy dissipation through conditioning than in the control group with a date of ETR (II) inhibition rate of 33 %, Fv/Fm inhibition rate of 8.3 % and Pm inhibition rate of 48.8 %. To elucidate the ecological effect of fluorescent brightener doping in plastic particles, a machine learning method is performed to establish a Gradient Boosting Machine model for predicting the impact of environmental factors on algal growth. Upon validation, the model achieved an average fitting degree of 88 %. Relative concentration of plastic particles and algae claimed the most significant factor by interpretability analysis of the machine learning. Additionally, both Gradient Boosting Machine prediction and experimental results indicate a matching result that plastic additives have an inhibitive effect on algal growth.

Abstract
In the frame of bioeconomy and circular economy, wastewater sludge (WS) could be a good candidate for its use in agriculture as fertilizer, due to its high content of organic matter, N and P, but on the other hand, it is full of toxicants such as heavy metal, microplastics, detergent, antibiotics, and so on that can reach groundwater and water bodies in leachate form. In this study, we have investigated different sludge concentrations in the eluate form, combined and not with PVC on two different freshwater organisms Selenastrum capricornutum and Daphnia magna, using ecotoxicity tests. At the endpoint, we have evaluated inhibition growth rate, oxidative stress, and pigments production for S. capricornutum, while in case of D. magna, we have assessed organism immobilization and development. From our results, it emerged that at the higher WS concentration, there was not inhibition growth rate, while at oxidative stress, it was higher in algae treated with WS and PVC. Higher Chl-a production was shown for algae treated with 0.3 g/L of sludge coupled with PVC, where higher phaeopigments production were recorded for algae treated with 0.3 g/L of WS. D. magna has shown an opposite trend when compared with algae, where at the highest WS concentrations supplied was corresponding to an increased mortality explaned as the highest immobility percentage. PRACTITIONER POINTS: Wastewater sludge is used in agriculture as fertilizer. PVC microplastic presence and associate ecotoxicity was tested. PVC presence increased oxidative stress in S. capricornutum. D. magna was significantly affected by sludge concentrations supplied.

Abstract
To investigate the toxic mechanism of SiO2 nanoparticles (nSiO2) and polystyrene microplastics (mPS) on microalgae Nitzschia closterium f. minutissima, growth inhibition tests were carried out. The growth and biological responses of the algae exposed to nSiO2 (0.5, 1, 2, 5, 10, 30 mg L-1) and mPS (1, 5, 10, 30 and 75 mg L-1) were explored in f/2 media for 96 h. Both micro-/nano-particles (MNPs) inhibited the growth of N. closterium f. minutissima in a concentration- and time-dependent manner. The toxic effect of mPS on N. closterium f. minutissima is higher than that of nSiO2, because silicon is essential for diatoms to maintain cell wall integrity, and the addition of appropriate amounts of nSiO2 can be absorbed and used as a nutrient to promote diatom growth and protect the integrity of the siliceous shell to some extent. Both MNPs induce the production of excess oxidation and activate the cellular antioxidant defense system, leading to increased SOD and CAT activity as a means to resist oxidative damage to the cell, and eliminating excess ROS and maintaining normal cell morphology and metabolism. SEM is consistent with the results of MDA, showing that mPS with high concentrations attach to the surface of algal cells to produce heterogeneous aggregates and disrupt the cell wall and cell membrane, causing the cells to expand and rupture. This study contributes to the understanding of the size effect of MNPs on the growth of marine diatom.

Abstract
The occurrence of microplastics (MPs) within aquatic ecosystems attracts a major environmental concern. It was demonstrated MPs could cause various ecotoxicological effects on microalgae. However, existing data on the effects of MPs on microalgae showed great variability among studies. Here, we performed a meta-analysis of the latest studies on the effects of MPs on photosynthesis and oxidative stress in microalgae. A total of 835 biological endpoints were investigated from 55 studies extracted, and 37 % of them were significantly affected by MPs. In this study, the impact of MPs against microalgae was concentration-dependent and size-dependent, and microalgae were more susceptible to MPs stress in freshwater than marine. Additionally, we summarized the biological functions of microalgae that are primarily affected by MPs. Under MPs exposure, the content of chlorophyll a (Chl-a) was reduced and electron transfer in the photosynthetic system was hindered, causing electron accumulation and oxidative stress damage, which may also affect biological processes such as energy production, carbon fixation, lipid metabolism, and nucleic acid metabolism. Finally, our findings provide important insights into the effects of MPs stress on photosynthesis and oxidative stress in microalga and enhance the current understanding of the potential risk of MPs pollution on aquatic organisms.

Abstract
The fact that 94% of microplastics (MPs) ubiquitous in the environment are subject to natural weathering makes the aging study currently a research hotspot. This review summarized the physicochemical characteristics of MPs undergoing natural and artificial aging and evaluated current analytical methods used in aging studies. Besides, the differences in photoaging and aging induced by advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) were discussed, leading to a conclusion that AOPs composed of oxidant and ultraviolet (UV) irradiation can better facilitate the alteration of MPs compared to UV irradiation alone. In addition, the environmental behavior of aged MPs was outlined and their adsorption properties for organics and metals were highlighted as a result of combined effects of hydrophobic, π-π, diffusion, and hydrogen bond interaction. Furthermore, the mechanisms of photoaging and AOPs-initiated aging were analyzed, mainly the role of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and environmentally persistent free radicals (EPFRs). Finally, the applications of two-dimensional correlation spectroscopy (2D-COS) and three-dimensional fluorescence spectra using excitation emission matrix-parallel factor analysis (EEM-PARAFAC) were discussed for the aging process analysis. This overview plays an important role in explaining the aging characteristics of MPs and provides a theoretical foundation for further investigations into their toxicity and removal.

Abstract
Nickel acts as an essential trace nutrient or toxicant for organisms, depending on its concentration. The increased concentrations of nickel, due to anthropogenic activity, in the aquatic environment are potential threats to aquatic organisms. However, the knowledge on toxic mechanisms of nickel to microalgae remains incompletely understood. In the present study, we investigated the toxic effects of nickel in the cosmopolitan diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum via evaluation of physiological and transcriptome responses. The results showed that the median effective concentration-72 h (EC50-72 h) and EC50-96 h of nickel was 2.48 ± 0.33 and 1.85 ± 0.17 mg/L, respectively. The P. tricornutum cell abundance and photosynthesis significantly decreased by 1 mg/L of nickel. Results from photosynthetic parameters including efficiency of the oxygen evolving complex (OEC) of photosystem II (PSII) (Fv/F0), maximum photosynthetic efficiency of PS II (Fv/Fm), electron transport rate (ETR), actual photosynthetic efficiency of PS II (Y(II)), non-photochemical quenching (NPQ), and photochemical quenching (qP) indicated that OEC of PS II might be impaired by nickel. The transcriptome data also reveal that OEC apparatus coding gene PS II oxygen-evolving enhancer protein 2 (PsbP) was regulated by nickel. Moreover, induced reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and chlorophyll a content were also detected under nickel stress. Transcriptome analysis revealed that nickel affected a variety of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) that involved in redox homeostasis, nitrogen metabolisms, fatty acids, and DNA metabolism. However, thiol-disulfide redox system might play important roles in nickel-induced oxidative stress resistance. This study improved the understanding of the toxic effect of nickel on the diatom P. tricornutum.

Abstract
Algae-induced odor problems in water have been repeatedly occurred concerns for drinking water quality. However, present researches mostly focus on the odor-producing pattern of algae in normal growth, and there is scarce discussion on those under stress. Microplastics (MPs) pollution have been global concern for their negative ecological impacts and frequently co-occurs with odor-producing algal bloom in freshwaters. Thus, this study aimed to elucidate the effects and mechanisms of MPs as an environmental stress on algal odorant production for good illustration of odor-producing response pattern under stress. Variation in MP size (polystyrene microspheres; 100 nm, 1000 nm and 10 μm) had significant effects on odorant formation (β-cycloidal, 2-methylisopropanol, 2,4-heptandienal and 2,4-decadienal) by four freshwater algae (Microcystis aeruginosa, Pseudanabaena sp., Cyclotella meneghiniana and Melosira varians). The size ratio of MPs over cells (SRMC) was proposed to categorize the size-ratio dependent effects on the algal odorant production. Interestingly, when SRMC was in the range of 0.1-1, there were always promoting effects; when SRMC < 0.1 or SRMC > 1, there exhibited inhibiting effects, and the inhibiting effects of SRMC < 0.1 were far more severe than those of SRMC > 1. The promotion on odorant production in the SRMC range of 0.1-1 was mainly attributed to the increase in cellular yield, which was related to the increased odorant precursors derived from the oxidation products of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Alternatively, the inhibition of odorant production caused by MPs with SRMC < 0.1 was the results of simultaneously inhibiting cellular density and cellular yield, which might be attributed to the cellular internalization of MPs, inducing the extensive toxic effects. This study illustrated the possibilities of MPs in impairing the esthetics of the source water and provided guidance for the future algal odor issues under stress.
