Mechanisms for more efficient antibiotics and antibiotic resistance genes removal during industrialized treatment of over 200 tons of tylosin and spectinomycin mycelial dregs by integrated meta-omics. BIORESOURCE TECHNOLOGY 2024; 401:130715. [PMID: 38641304 DOI: 10.1016/j.biortech.2024.130715] [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: 01/08/2024] [Revised: 03/29/2024] [Accepted: 04/17/2024] [Indexed: 04/21/2024]
Abstract
To mitigate the environmental risks posed by the accumulation of antibiotic mycelial dregs (AMDs), this study first attempted over 200 tons of mass production fermentation (MP) using tylosin and spectinomycin mycelial dregs alongside pilot-scale fermentation (PS) for comparison, utilizing the integrated-omics and qPCR approaches. Co-fermentation results showed that both antibiotics were effectively removed in all treatments, with an average removal rate of 92%. Antibiotic resistance gene (ARG)-related metabolic pathways showed that rapid degradation of antibiotics was associated with enzymes that inactivate macrolides and aminoglycosides (e.g., K06979, K07027, K05593). Interestingly, MP fermentations with optimized conditions had more efficient ARGs removal because homogenization permitted faster microbial succession, with more stable removal of antibiotic resistant bacteria and mobile genetic elements. Moreover, Bacillus reached 75% and secreted antioxidant enzymes that might inhibit horizontal gene transfer of ARGs. The findings confirmed the advantages of MP fermentation and provided a scientific basis for other AMDs.

Intramuscular therapeutic doses of enrofloxacin affect microbial community structure but not the relative abundance of fluoroquinolones resistance genes in swine manure. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2024; 913:169794. [PMID: 38181963 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2023.169794] [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: 11/06/2023] [Revised: 12/27/2023] [Accepted: 12/28/2023] [Indexed: 01/07/2024]
Abstract
Livestock manure is a major source of veterinary antibiotics and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). Elucidation of the residual characteristics of ARGs in livestock manure following the administration of veterinary antibiotics is critical to assess their ecotoxicological effects and environmental contamination risks. Here, we investigated the effects of enrofloxacin (ENR), a fluoroquinolone antibiotic commonly used as a therapeutic drug in animal husbandry, on the characteristics of ARGs, mobile genetic elements, and microbial community structure in swine manure following its intramuscular administration for 3 days and a withdrawal period of 10 days. The results revealed the highest concentrations of ENR and ciprofloxacin (CIP) in swine manure at the end of the administration period, ENR concentrations in swine manure in groups L and H were 88.67 ± 45.46 and 219.75 ± 88.05 mg/kg DM, respectively. Approximately 15 fluoroquinolone resistance genes (FRGs) and 48 fluoroquinolone-related multidrug resistance genes (F-MRGs) were detected in swine manure; the relative abundance of the F-MRGs was considerably higher than that of the FRGs. On day 3, the relative abundance of qacA was significantly higher in group H than in group CK, and no significant differences in the relative abundance of other FRGs, F-MRGs, or MGEs were observed between the three groups on day 3 and day 13. The microbial community structure in swine manure was significantly altered on day 3, and the altered community structure was restored on day 13. The FRGs and F-MRGs with the highest relative abundance were qacA and adeF, respectively, and Clostridium and Lactobacillus were the dominant bacterial genera carrying these genes in swine manure. In summary, a single treatment of intramuscular ENR transiently increased antibiotic concentrations and altered the microbial community structure in swine manure; however, this treatment did not significantly affect the abundance of FRGs and F-MRGs.

Abstract
Globally, animal production has developed rapidly as a consequence of the ongoing population growth, to support food security. This has consequently led to an extensive use of antibiotics to promote growth and prevent diseases in animals. However, most antibiotics are not fully metabolized by these animals, leading to their excretion within urine and faeces, thus making these wastes a major reservoir of antibiotics residues, antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) and antibiotic resistant bacteria (ARB) in the environment. Farmers normally depend on conventional treatment methods to mitigate the environmental impact of animal waste; however, these methods are not fully efficient to remove the environmental resistome. The present study reviewed the variability of residual antibiotics, ARB, as well as ARGs in the conventionally treated waste and assessed how discharging it could increase resistome in the receiving environments. Wherein, considering the efficiency and environmental safety, an addition of pre-treatments steps with these conventional treatment methods could enhance the removal of antibiotic resistance agents from livestock waste.

Abstract
Abatement of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in livestock manure by composting has attracted attention. This study investigated the effect of adding magnesium-modified biochar (MBC) on ARGs and microbial communities in chicken manure composting. Twelve genes for tetracyclines, sulfonamides, and macrolides, and mobile genetic elements were measured in the compost pile. The results showed that after 45 days of the composting, the treatment groups of MBC had longer high temperature periods, significantly higher germination indices (GI) and lower phytotoxicity. There were four major dominant phyla (Firmicutes, Actinobacteriota, Proteobacteria, and Bacteroidota) in the compost. The abundance of Firmicutes decreased significantly during the compost cooling period; tetracycline resistance genes demonstrated an extremely significant positive correlation with Firmicutes, showing a trend of the same increase and decrease with composting time; tetT, tetO, tetM, tetW, ermB, and intI2 were reduced in the MBC group; the total abundance of resistance genes in the 2% MBC addition group was 0.67 times that of the control; Proteobacteria and Chloroflexi were also significantly lower than the other treatment groups. Most ARGs were significantly associated with mobile genetic elements (MGEs); MBC can reduce the spread and diffusion of ARGs by reducing the abundance of MGEs and inhibiting horizontal gene transfer (HGT).

Abstract
The effect of microbial agents (MA) on hydrogen sulfide (H2S) emissions in the compost is still a controversial issue. This study examined the effects and microbial mechanisms of MA on H2S emissions during the composting of kitchen waste. The results showed that MA addition can promote sulfur conversion to elevate H2S emissions by approximately 1.6 ∼ 2.8 times. Structural equations demonstrated that microbial community structure was the dominant driver on H2S emissions. Agents reshaped the compost microbiome, showing more microorganisms participated in sulfur conversion, and enhanced the connection between microorganisms and functional genes. The relative abundance of keystone species associated with H2S emissions increased after adding MA. Particularly, the sulfite and sulfate reduction processes were intensified, as evidenced by an increasing in the abundance and pathways cooperation of sat and asrA after MA addition. The outcome provides deeper insights into MA on regulating the mitigation of H2S emissions in compost.

Effect of biochars with different particle sizes on fates of antibiotics and antibiotic resistance genes during composting of swine manure. BIORESOURCE TECHNOLOGY 2023; 370:128542.

Abstract
The impact of biochars with large particle sizes (LPB, 5-10 mm) and small particle sizes (SPB, <0.074 mm) on fates of antibiotics and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) during composting of swine manure with maize straw was explored. The results showed that antibiotics removal efficiencies were 40 %, 50 %, and 76 % for control treatment, control with LPB treatment, and control with SPB treatment after composting, respectively. The introduction of SPB reduced the total ARGs and mobile genetic elements (MGEs) levels by 28 % and 19 % after composting, respectively. The Mantel test results showed that organic matter, moisture content, and NH4+-N contributed the most to changes in antibiotics and ARGs. The significant effects of biochar specific surface area and antibiotics on MGEs further regulated the behavior of ARGs. Therefore, composting with SPB is more conducive to the removal of antibiotics and ARGs during composting of swine manure.
