Sediment is the main storage medium of antibiotics in a water environment, and a growing body of research has focused on the distribution behavior of antibiotics in water-sediment. However, most of the previous studies were based on laboratory simulation, and less attention was paid to the distribution behavior of antibiotics in a natural water environment and its correlation with environmental factors. Thus, the surface water and sediment in Shijiazhuang were taken as the research object for this study. The temporal and spatial distribution characteristics of quinolone (QNs) antibiotics in Shijiazhuang water were analyzed by using high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS), calculating the distribution coefficients of quinolone (QNs) antibiotics in water and sediment, and confirming the main environmental factors influencing the distribution coefficient in natural water. The results showed that:① the content of ΣQNs in water and sediment ranged from 8.0 to 4.4×10

Most studies on antibiotics in groundwater have focused on pollution characteristics, whereas less attention has been paid to the ecological risks of antibiotics and the correlation to environmental parameters. In this study, the groundwater in Shijiazhuang City was selected as the research area. Through high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS), the concentration of quinolones (QNs) in the groundwater was analyzed. Correlation analysis was conducted between QNs concentrations and physical-chemical parameters. The results showed that:① the detection frequency of flumequine (FLU) was the highest (100%), followed by enoxacin (ENO) (80.0%) and ciprofloxacin (CIP) (75.0%). ② The concentration of QNs ranged from 3.02 to 98.5 ng·L

Microbial communities are an important component of soil ecosystems. Long-term low content antibiotic pollution will affect the structure and function of microbial communities in soil. Therefore, Shijiazhuang City was selected as the study area, in which twelve sample points were set up in September 2020. These sample sites were divided into four areas (S1, S2, S3, and S4) according to spatial orientation. Ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS) was applied to determine the content of typical antibiotic-quinolones (QNs) in the soil. 16S rRNA high-throughput sequencing technology was used to study the microbial community structure and diversity in the soil. The results showed that:① the total detected contents of QNs in the four areas were S3 (313.5 μg·kg

Based on the signal amplification elements of planar VS2/AuNPs nanocomposites and CoFe2O4 nanozyme, we herein developed an electrochemical biosensor for sensitive kanamycin (Kana) quantification. A ratiometric sensing platform was presented by incorporating VS2/AuNPs nanocomposites as a support material with excellent conductivity and high specific surface area, as well as hairpin DNA (hDNA) with complementary hybridization of biotinylated Kana-aptamer. In addition, streptavidin-functionalized CoFe2O4 nanozyme with superior peroxidase-like catalytic activity were immobilized onto the aptasensor, hence the peroxidase-like catalytic reaction could yield amplified electrochemical signals. With the presence of Kana, the aptamer-biorecognition resulted in a quantitative decrease of nanozyme accumulation and an increase of methylene blue response. Under optimal conditions, the electrochemical signal ratio of the aptasensor revealed a linear relation along with the logarithmic concentration of Kana from 1 pM to 1 μM, with the limit of detection reaching to 0.5 pM. Moreover, this aptasensor exhibited excellent precision, as well as high repeatability, hence possessing potentials in real samples and for diverse targets detection by easy replacement of the matched aptamer.

Dissolved organic matter(DOM) is an important component of the organic matter in the environment. This study explored the characteristics of DOM. The components and spectral characteristics of rainwater DOM were measured using Ultraviolet-visible absorption spectrum(UV-vis) and three-dimensional fluorescence spectrum in the Hebei province. The results showed significant differences for DOM molecular weight in the northern, central, and southern region; the DOM of the northern region exhibited the lowest molecular weight. Two humic-like(C1 and C4), one protein-like(C2) and one fulvic-like(C3) components were identified by parallel factor(PARAFAC) analysis. Component C2 had a significant positive correlation with components C3 and C4(

Dissolved organic matter (DOM) plays an important role in the evolution of microbial communities. Meanwhile, ecological water delivery is an important feature of Baiyangdian Lake. To explore how the structure of the aerobic denitrification bacteria community responds to DOM during the water delivery period, the DOM components of water were examined and high-throughput sequencing of aerobic denitrification bacteria was performed. The results showed significant differences in DOM concentration in Baiyangdian Lake, with the estuary area exhibiting lower DOM concentrations. The water exhibited strong autogenous source, while DOM in the estuary area had a higher molecular weight and degree of humification. Three protein-like substances (C1, C2, and C4) and one humic-like substance (C3) were identified through PARAFAC. The protein-like substances accounted for the major proportion of DOM, which was consistent with the results of fluorescence regional integration (FRI). The genera of the water body were mainly in the Protebacterice phylum, including

In order to reveal the interaction of overlying water-interstitial water nitrogen and phosphorus nutrient salt in summer at the entrance region of Baiyangdian Lake, this study sampled six main rivers in the region during July 2019. An analysis of the overlying water and interstitial water quality characteristics and the diffusion flux of applied nutrients at the sediment-water interface revealed the effects of nutrient diffusion on sediments and overlying water. The overlying water analysis showed that the water quality was slightly alkaline in the Baiyangdian Lake. The content of dissolved oxygen (DO) was lower, which provided an anaerobic environment for the release of endogenous pollutants from sediments. The ammonia nitrogen (NH

The relationship between CDOM (Chromophoric dissolved organic matter) and the bacterial community was investigated in ice-covered Baiyangdian Lake. The results showed that environmental parameters significantly differed in Baiyangdian Lake, whereas a-diversity was not significantly different. Moreover, the microbial and functional communities exhibited significant differences, and T (Temperature), pH, ORP (Oxidation-reduction potential), DO (Dissolved oxygen), NO3&minus, N, NH4+-N, and Mn (Manganese) were the main environmental factors of these differences, based on redundancy analysis and the Mantel test. Biomarkers of the microbial and functional communities were investigated through linear discriminant analysis effect size and STAMP analysis. The number of biomarkers in the natural area was highest among the typical zones, and most top functions were related to carbohydrate metabolism. Two protein-like components (C1 and C2) and one humic-like component (C3) were identified by parallel factor analysis, and C1 was positively related to C2 (R = 0.99, p &lt, 0.001), indicating the same sources. Moreover, CDOM significantly differed among the typical zones (p &lt, 0.001). The high biological index, fluorescence index, &beta, &alpha, and low humification index indicated a strong autochthonous component and aquatic bacterial origin, which was consistent with the results of UV-vis absorption spectroscopy. Network analysis revealed non-random co-occurrence patterns. The bacterial and functional communities interacted closely with CDOM. The dominant genera were CL500-29_marine_group, Flavobacterium, Limnohabitans, and Candidatus_Aquirestis. Random forest analysis showed that C1, C2, and C3 are important predictors of &alpha, and &beta, diversity in the water bacterial community and its functional composition. This study provides insight into the interaction between bacterial communities and DOM (Dissolved organic matter) in ice-covered Baiyangdian Lake.
