Abstract
The establishment of an efficient method for the analysis of drug residues in animal urine facilitates the real-time monitoring of drugs used in the production of animal-derived food. A modified QuEChERS extraction-liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method was established for the determination of 47 banned drug and related chemical residues in livestock urine. The sample was extracted with acetonitrile by converting the acid-base environment. The sample cleanup effects of seven solid phase extraction cartridges and two EMR-Lipid products were compared, and three materials, including graphitized carboxyl multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs), PSA, and C18, were selected as QuEChERS adsorbents from 24 materials. All analytes showed good linearity, with correlation coefficients (R2) greater than 0.9936. Low limits of quantification could be obtained, ranging from 0.2 to 5.5 ng/mL. The average recoveries at low, medium, and high spiked levels were in the range of 70.8-114.9 %, with intra-day precision ranging from 2.4 % to 11.2 % and inter-day precision ranging from 4.5 % to 16.1 %. Swine urine and bovine urine samples collected from different farms were effectively analyzed using the developed method, and metronidazole was detected in three swine urine samples.

Abstract
As an emerging contaminant, antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) have attracted growing attention, owing to their widespread dissemination and potential risk in the farming environment. However, ARG pollution from family livestock farms in the Yellow River basin, one of the main irrigation water sources in the North China Plain, remains unclear. Herein, we targeted 21 typical family farms to assess the occurrence patterns of ARGs in livestock waste and its influence on ARGs in receiving environment by real-time quantitative PCR (qPCR). Results showed that common ARGs were highly prevalent in family livestock waste, and tet-ARGs and sul-ARGs were the most abundant in these family farms. Most ARG levels in fresh feces of different animals varied, as the trend of chicken farms (broilers > laying hens) > swine farms (piglets > fattening pigs > boars and sows) > cattle farms (dairy cattle > beef cattle). The effect of natural composting on removing ARGs for chicken manure was better than that for cattle manure, while lagoon storage was not effective in removing ARGs from family livestock wastewater. More troublesomely, considerable amounts of ARGs were discharged with manure application, further leading to the ARG increase in farmland soil (up to 58-119 times), which would exert adverse impacts on human health and ecological safety.

WASTE MANAGEMENT (NEW YORK, N.Y.) 2023; 169:179-185. [PMID: 37453305 DOI: 10.1016/j.wasman.2023.07.011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/22/2023] [Revised: 07/04/2023] [Accepted: 07/10/2023] [Indexed: 07/18/2023]
Abstract
Composts are often suppressive to several plant diseases, including the devastating bacterial wilt caused by Ralstonia solanacearum. However, the underlying mechanisms are still unclear. Herein, we carried out an experiment with 38 composts collected from different factories in China to study the interlinking among bacterial wilt suppression, the physicochemical properties and bacterial community of the compost, and bacterial community in the rhizosphere of tomato fertilized by compost. Totally 26 composts were suppressive to bacterial wilt, while six composts stimulated the disease. The control efficiency was neither correlated with physicochemical properties (TC, TN, P and K, pH or GI) nor bacterial community of compost, but with rhizosphere bacterial community (r = 0.17, p = 0.016). The control efficiency was also positive correlated with taxa (Rhizobium, Aeromicrobium) known suppressive to R. solanacearum. The mushroom spent or cow manure, from which the two composts were 100% and 77% in control efficiencies against bacterial wilt respectively were subject to a pilot-scale composting reaction. The reproduced composts from mushroom spent or cow manure were only 57% and 23% effective on the control of bacterial wilt, respectively. The analysis of bacterial communities revealed that the relative abundances of R. solanacearum were 28.4% for the control, but only 7.8%-7.9% for compost fertilized tomatoes. The compost from mushroom spent also exerted a strong effect on rhizosphere bacterial community. Taken together, most composts were suppressive to bacterial wilt possibly also by modifying rhizosphere bacterial community towards inhibiting the colonization of R. solanacearum and selecting for beneficial genera of Proteobacteria, Bacteroidetes and Actinobacteria.

Changes in bacterial diversity, co-occurrence pattern, and potential pathogens following digestate fertilization: Extending pathogen management to field for anaerobic digestion of livestock manure. WASTE MANAGEMENT (NEW YORK, N.Y.) 2023; 158:107-115.

Abstract
Digestate can spread pathogens into agroecosystem, posing serious threats to public health. However, the effect of digestate fertilization on digestate- or soil-borne pathogens has not been fully explored. Herein, two settings of microcosm experiment were performed with arable soil and digestate collected at two sites (Beilangzhong or Shunyi) to dissect the succession of the total and potential pathogenic bacterial communities following digestate fertilization. Each experimental setting consisted of three treatments, including digestate aerobically incubated in sterilized soil, and soil amended with sterilized or non-sterilized digestate. Digestate-borne potential pathogenic bacteria were enriched after the aerobic incubation, with Streptococcus sobrinus in the Beilangzhong setting, and Escherichia coli and Enterococcus faecium in the Shunyi setting. Potential soil-borne pathogenic bacteria, such as Acinetobacter lowffii and Pseudomonas fluorescens, were stimulated by the sterilized digestate in the Shunyi setting. Interestingly, S. sobrinus, E. coli, and Ent. faecium did not increase when digestate was amended into the non-sterilized soil, suggesting that soil microorganisms can inhibit the resurgence of these digestate-borne pathogens. A large-scale survey further revealed that organic fertilization exerted a site-dependent effect on different species of potential pathogen, but it did not enrich the total relative abundance of potential pathogenic bacteria in soils. Collectively, these results highlight that pathogen management of anaerobic digestion of livestock manure needs to be extended from anaerobic reactor to field.

Insight into the dynamic microbial community and core bacteria in composting from different sources by advanced bioinformatics methods. ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND POLLUTION RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2023; 30:8956-8966.

Abstract
Microbial communities are important for high composting efficiency and good quality composts. This study was conducted to compare the changes of physicochemical and bacterial characteristics in composting from different raw materials, including chicken manure (CM), duck manure (DM), sheep manure (SM), food waste (FW), and vegetable waste (VW). The role and interactions of core bacteria and their contribution to maturity in diverse composts were analyzed by advanced bioinformatics methods combined sequencing with co-occurrence network and structural equation modeling (SEM). Results indicated that there were obviously different bacterial composition and diversity in composting from diverse sources. FW had a low pH and different physiochemical characteristics compared to other composts but they all achieved similar maturity products. Redundancy analysis suggested total organic carbon, phosphorus, and temperature governed the composition of microbial species but key factors were different in diverse composts. Network analysis showed completely different interactions of core bacterial community from diverse composts but Thermobifida was the ubiquitous core bacteria in composting bacterial network. Sphaerobacter and Lactobacillus as core genus were presented in the starting mesophilic and thermophilic phases of composting from manure (CM, DM, SM) and municipal solid waste (FW, VW), respectively. SEM indicated core bacteria had the positive, direct, and the biggest (> 80%) effects on composting maturity. Therefore, this study presents theoretical basis to identify and enhance the core bacteria for improving full-scale composting efficiency facing more and more organic wastes.

Abstract
Quantitative PCR (qPCR) has become a widely used technique for bacterial quantification. The affordability, ease of experimental design, reproducibility, and robustness of qPCR experiments contribute to its success. The establishment of guidelines for minimum information for publication of qPCR experiments, now more than 10 years ago, aimed to mitigate the publication of contradictory data. Unfortunately, there are still a significant number of recent research articles that do not consider the main pitfalls of qPCR for quantification of biological samples, which undoubtedly leads to biased experimental conclusions. qPCR experiments have two main issues that need to be properly tackled: those related to the extraction and purification of genomic DNA and those related to the thermal amplification process. This mini-review provides an updated literature survey that critically analyzes the following key aspects of bacterial quantification by qPCR: (i) the normalization of qPCR results by using exogenous controls, (ii) the construction of adequate calibration curves, and (iii) the determination of qPCR reaction efficiency. It is primarily focused on original papers published last year, where qPCR was applied to quantify bacterial species in different types of biological samples, including multi-species biofilms, human fluids, and water and soil samples. KEY POINTS: • qPCR is a widely used technique used for absolute bacterial quantification. • Recently published papers lack proper qPCR methodologies. • Not including proper qPCR controls significantly affect experimental conclusions.
