多壁碳纳米管对土壤微生物的生态毒理效应

以多壁碳纳米管为研究对象,从生化作用、酶活性、微生物数量和群落结构4个方面系统评估其对土壤微生物的影响。设置两组实验,分别为碳纳米管组和对照组。对于碳纳米管组,按1mg碳纳米管·g-1土的浓度将多壁碳纳米管与土样均匀混合,对照组中不加入多壁碳纳米管。定期(每28d)取样测定两组土壤中的各项生态毒理指标。近5个月的实验结果显示,不同指标对多壁碳纳米管的响应不同。土壤呼吸作用初期受抑制但后期恢复,氨化作用初期被促进但后期被抑制,脱氢酶活性发生增强和抑制两次波动,荧光素二乙酸酯酶活性在整个实验期间一直被抑制,微生物量出现先减少后增加再减少的规律,群落结构在实验初期和后期均有较大变化。总体上,多壁碳纳米管对土壤微生物表现了一定的生态毒性,但除荧光素二乙酸酯酶活性外,各毒理效应在统计意义上并不显著(0.05水平)。     

Biotoxicity evaluation of zinc oxide nanoparticles on bacterial performance of activated sludge at COD,nitrogen, and phosphorus reduction

• ZnO-NP disrupted metabolic/catabolic balance of bacteria by affecting DHA activity. • ZnO-NPs toxicity was related to Zn²⁺ ion, interaction with cell and ROS generation. • Exposure to ZnO-NPs resulted in changed bacterial community structure at sludge. • The change in the EPS content was observed during exposure to ZnO-NPs. The unique properties and growing usage of zinc oxide nanoparticles increase their release in municipal wastewater treatment plants. Therefore, these nanoparticles, by interacting with microorganisms, can fail the suitable functioning of biological systems in treatment plants. For this reason, research into the toxicity of ZnO is urgent. In the present study, the toxicity mechanism of ZnO-NPs towards microbial communities central to granular activated sludge (GAS) performance was assessed over 120-day exposure. The results demonstrate that the biotoxicity of ZnO-NPs is dependent upon its dosage, exposure time, and the extent of reactive oxygen species (ROS) production. Furthermore, GAS performance and the extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) content were significantly reduced at 50 mg/L ZnO-NPs. This exposure led to decreases in the activity of ammonia monooxygenase (25.2%) and nitrate reductase (11.9%) activity. The Field emission scanning electron microscopy images confirmed that ZnO-NPs were able to disrupt the cell membrane integrity and lead to cell/bacterial death via intracellular ROS generation which was confirmed by the Confocal Laser Scanning Microscopy analysis. After exposure to the NPs, the bacterial community composition shifted to one dominated by Gram-positive bacteria. The results of this study could help to develop environmental standards and regulations for NPs applications and emissions.     

磺胺类兽药对土壤微生物数量的影响

采用室内培养的方法,研究磺胺类兽药(磺胺二甲基嘧啶、磺胺甲噁唑)污染对土壤微生物数量(细菌、真菌、放线菌、固氮菌、兼气性固氮菌、硝化细菌、亚硝化细菌、反硝化细菌及氨化细菌)的影响.结果表明,磺胺类兽药对土壤细菌数量有一定的激活作用,其最大激活率在700%以上.兽药对土壤真菌数量的影响主要呈现抑制作用,其最高抑制率为92.9%.兽药对土壤放线菌数量有一定的抑制作用,对土壤固氮菌数量则有一定的激活作用.兽药对土壤兼气性固氮菌数量的影响表现为较低浓度时(10 mg.kg-1)抑制,而较高浓度时(50 mg.kg-1)则激活.兽药对土壤硝化细菌、亚硝化细菌、反硝化细菌及氨化细菌有一定的激活作用,其中对硝化细菌的最大激活率可达1000%以上.     

高Cu、高Zn对白星花金龟幼虫的毒性作用

Cu(铜)和Zn(锌)是环境中最常见的重金属污染元素,为探究其对白星花金龟幼虫的毒性,采用滤纸接触法、人工土壤法和菌渣培养法研究了高Cu、高Zn对白星花金龟幼虫的生长及氧化胁迫效应。结果表明,滤纸接触法和人工土壤法中试验浓度Cu、Zn对白星花金龟幼虫死亡率无明显影响。菌渣培养法中虫体的取食抑制率和体重增长抑制率均与Cu、Zn浓度呈显著性正相关关系;Cu处理诱导了虫体可溶性蛋白含量的增加,抑制了SOD(超氧化物歧化酶)、GST(谷胱甘肽转移酶)的活性和MDA(丙二醛)的产生,对CAT(过氧化物酶)活性没有显著影响;Zn浓度为3 500和5 000 mg·kg-1的处理组可溶性蛋白含量被显著诱导、MDA含量被显著抑制,浓度为2 000和6 500 mg·kg-1处理组的SOD活性被激活(P0.05),Zn胁迫未对CAT、GST活性造成明显影响。表明Cu、Zn污染对白星花金龟幼虫生长具有毒性效应,在评价高浓度的重金属污染对虫体的毒性作用时,不能仅采用SOD、CAT、GST等指标作为标志物,需要综合其他指标进行分析。     

黑土微生物量和酶活性对邻苯二甲酸二丁酯污染的响应

邻苯二甲酸二丁酯(di-n-butyl phthalate,DBP)是一种在环境中广泛存在的有毒有机化合物,已被我国列为优先控制污染物之一。本研究探讨了不同浓度的DBP污染对黑土呼吸、微生物量以及黑土酶活性的影响。结果表明,DBP污染处理的黑土呼吸速率和微生物量碳较对照均显著增加;微生物氮在DBP污染过程中呈"降低-升高-降低"波动性变化;微生物磷与DBP污染浓度呈显著负相关;DBP对黑土多酚氧化酶表现为先促进后抑制,对转化酶和蛋白酶活性表现为低浓度促进而高浓度抑制;在DBP污染过程中脲酶呈现被激活状态;黑土过氧化氢酶和酸性磷酸酶均受到DBP污染的显著抑制。通过相关性分析发现,土壤微生物量、土壤酶活性与DBP污染浓度之间存在着高度的相关性。由此可推断,DBP污染改变了黑土呼吸、微生物量和酶学活性的代谢特征,进而有可能影响了黑土的生态系统功能,威胁到黑土的可持续利用。     

对二甲苯对褐牙鲆(Paralichthys olivaceus)幼鱼的毒性效应研究

采用急性和28 d慢性暴露试验研究了海洋典型危险化学品对二甲苯对褐牙鲆幼鱼的致死效应和生长抑制效应,并测定了遗传毒性、神经毒性以及免疫毒性效应相关的毒理学评价指标。研究结果表明:对二甲苯对褐牙鲆幼鱼的96 h-LC50为45.7 mg·L~(-1),根据国家环保局水和废水监测分析方法编委会规定的化学物质对鱼类毒性分级标准,属于中等毒性,浓度高于2.3 mg·L~(-1)的暴露能显著抑制褐牙鲆幼鱼的生长;4.6和9.2 mg·L~(-1)浓度组观察到对二甲苯暴露28 d后褐牙鲆肝脏中的丙二醛含量与DNA损伤程度显著升高,脑组织中乙酰胆碱酯酶(Ach E)活力被明显抑制;9.2 mg·L~(-1)浓度组暴露28 d后,褐牙鲆幼鱼体内总血细胞数量和溶菌酶活力显著降低。这些结果表明较高浓度的对二甲苯长期作用可导致褐牙鲆幼鱼的氧化胁迫,造成其肝脏毒性损伤并产生神经毒性与免疫毒性。本实验结果为了解对二甲苯对鱼类的毒性作用机制以及对二甲苯的海洋生态风险评估提供了科学依据。     

土壤中草甘膦与镉的交互作用对3种土壤酶活性的影响

研究了两种土壤中草甘膦与镉交互作用对土壤三种酶活性的影响．结果发现,低浓度镉略促进乌栅土中的脲酶活性,而高浓度镉则显著抑制了其脲酶活性,当与草甘膦共存时,草甘膦的存在增强了镉对脲酶活性的抑制作用; 镉对红壤中脲酶活性的影响较小,而草甘膦单一或与Cd共存时均显著抑制了红壤中脲酶的活性．镉抑制了乌栅土中酸性和碱性磷酸酶活性,而草甘膦的存在增加了镉的毒性,两者表现为协同作用;低浓度镉促进了红壤酸性磷酸酶活性,而高浓度镉则抑制了土壤酸性磷酸酶活性,草甘膦的存在降低了红壤中镉的毒性,两者表现为颉颃作用．镉对红壤中碱性磷酸酶的活性影响较小．     

不同培养介质中纳米氧化铜对小麦毒性的影响（Influence of Culture Media on the Phytotoxicity of CuO Nanoparticles to Wheat（Triticum aestivum L.））

通过比较纳米氧化铜(CuONPs)和微米氧化铜(CuOMPs)在两种土壤中Cu2+的溶出及其对脲酶活性影响,结合产生脲酶活性抑制效应的Cu2+浓度阈值,研究了CuONPs和CuOMPs对土壤脲酶活性的毒性效应机制.结果表明:CuONPs和CuOMPs的Cu2+溶出量随其浓度增加而增加,溶出比率随浓度增加而减少,两者在红壤中Cu2+的溶出均比在乌栅土中高;在1～1000mg·kg-1范围内,CuONPs对土壤脲酶活性产生了显著(p≤0.05)或极显著(p≤0.01)的抑制效应;同浓度下,CuONPs在土壤中的Cu2+溶出及其对脲酶活性的抑制效应均大于CuOMPs;在相对低浓度(1～10mg·kg-1,红壤;1～100mg·kg-1,乌栅土)下,CuO的纳米态对土壤脲酶活性具有抑制毒性,在相对高浓度(≥50mg·kg-1,红壤;≥500mg·kg-1,乌栅土)下,CuO的纳米态和溶出Cu2+共同作用引起了脲酶活性抑制;与CuONPs不同,CuOMPs只有通过溶出Cu2+抑制土壤脲酶活性,其颗粒态对脲酶活性无显著影响;值得注意的是,在低浓度(1mg·kg-1)下CuONPs对土壤脲酶活性具有微米态和离子态所没有的抑制毒性,说明其对土壤酶影响应存在特殊机理,值得进一步深入研究.     

磺胺类兽药对土壤酶活性的影响

采用室内培养的方法,研究磺胺类兽药（磺胺二甲基嘧啶、磺胺甲唑）污染对土壤蔗糖酶、硝酸还原酶、过氧化氢酶、磷酸酶、脲酶和多酚氧化酶活性的影响。结果表明,磺胺类兽药可显著抑制土壤蔗糖酶的活性,其抑制率可达50%以上。兽药对土壤硝酸还原酶活性的影响表现为先抑制后激活的趋势,最大抑制率和激活率可达98.6%、580%。兽药对土壤过氧化氢酶活性的影响主要以激活作用为主,对土壤磷酸酶活性的影响则呈现＂激活-抑制＂的循环趋势。兽药对土壤脲酶活性的影响表现为,培养前期低浓度时激活,高浓度时抑制;培养后期低、高浓度时均抑制。兽药对土壤多酚氧化酶活性的影响表现为,培养前期激活,培养后期抑制。     

Evaluation of soil microbial toxicity of waste foundry sand for soil-related reuse

The relationship between the chemical con- taminants and soil microbial toxicity of waste foundry sand （WFS） was investigated. Five different types of WFS from typical ferrous, aluminum, and steel foundries in China were examined for total metals, leachable metals, and organic contaminants. The soil microbial toxicity of each WFS was evaluated by measuring the dehydrogenase activity （DHA） of a blended soil and WFS mixture and then comparing it to that of unblended soil. The results show that the five WFSs had very different compositions of metal and organic contaminants and thus exhibited very different levels of soil microbial inhibition when blended with soil. For a given WFS blended with soil in the range of 10wt.%-50wt.% WFS, the DHA decreased almost linearly with increased blending ratio. Furthermore, for a given blending ratio, the WFSs with higher concentrations of metal and organic contaminants exhibited greater microbial toxicity. Correlation analysis shows that the relationship between ecotoxicity and metal and organic contaminants of WFSs can be described by an empirical logarithmic linear model. This model may be used to control WFS blending ratios in soil-related applications based on chemical analysis results to prevent significant inhibition of soil microbial activity.     

International standardized procedures for in vivo evaluation of multi-walled carbon nanotube toxicity in water

The classical approach in ecotoxicological evaluation of chemical substances consists of conducting standardized bioassays on organism models. In this work, the potential impact of industrial multi-walled carbon nanotubes was investigated by ecotoxicological standardized procedures using aquatic organisms of different trophic levels, namely bacteria, green algae, invertebrates, fish, and amphibians. The results indicated (1) inhibition of growth in amphibians at 50 mg L^?1 and higher, and (2) no effects on daphnia and fish up to 100 mg L^?1. With the exception of algae (for which Fe deficiency is measured), it seems that the observed toxicity may be due to physiological effects in relation to the ingestion of carbon nanotubes not necessarily related to their intrinsic effects.     

类羧酸对棕壤中与氮素转化有关的生物活性的影响

类羧酸是一种带有羧基的化工副产品，其主要成分是二羧酸和三羧酸。具有较强的络合能力，可以用做螯合剂。文章通过室内培养实验，研究了类羧酸对棕壤中与氮素转化有关的生物活性的影响。结果表明类羧酸能显著抑制土壤脲酶活性，有效减少尿素水解产物氨的挥发损失；能促进土壤中含氮有机物的分解，并能抑制土壤中氨态氮向硝态氮的转化。另外施用类羧酸还能改善土壤中氮素的有效性，提高土壤的供氮能力。     

除草剂对尿素氮在土壤中转化的影响

在实验室培养条件下研究除草剂草甘膦和丁草胺对尿素氮在菜地土壤中转化的影响。实验设对照、尿素、尿素＋草甘膦和尿素＋丁草胺4个处理,尿素氮用量为200 mg.kg-1（以干土计）,除草剂用量为w（有效成分）=10 mg.kg-1（以干土计）。结果表明,草甘膦和丁草胺对尿素氨化作用不产生抑制作用,甚至出现促进效果。2种除草剂在培养的前2 d均显著抑制硝化作用,但到第4天时显著促进硝化作用（P〈0.05）。草甘膦对反硝化作用表现显著的抑制作用（P〈0.05）,而丁草胺对反硝化作用有极显著的促进作用（P〈0.01）;丁草胺＋尿素、尿素、草甘膦＋尿素处理的反硝化损失量分别占施氮量的16.90%、6.34%和3.66%。可见,除草剂对土壤氮素转化有一定影响,但不同除草剂对氮素各个转化途径的影响有明显差异,不同除草剂品种间影响程度也不同。     

纳米银与银离子对土壤微生物及酶活性的影响

为研究纳米银和银离子对土壤微生物的影响,采用土壤培养方式,对不同剂量纳米银(10、50、100 mg·kg~(-1))和银离子(1、5、10 mg·kg~(-1))暴露下黄褐土、砖红壤中可培养微生物数量及土壤酶活性(脲酶、荧光素二乙酸酯水解酶、蔗糖酶、过氧化氢酶)进行研究,并采用纯培养方法对纳米银和银离子暴露下的大肠杆菌(Escherichia coli)、金黄色葡萄球菌(Staphylococcus aureus)凋亡情况进行检测,对纳米银释放的银离子毒性进行评估。结果表明,随着纳米银剂量的增加,土壤可培养微生物数量显著减少,脲酶和过氧化氢酶活性降低,蔗糖酶、荧光素二乙酸酯水解酶(FDA酶)活性没有显著变化;银离子处理中微生物数量明显减少,但土壤酶活性被激活。10 mg·L~(-1)纳米银暴露1 h后大肠杆菌、金黄色葡萄球菌凋亡率、死亡率增高;随着培养时间的延长,纳米银缓慢释放银离子,并促进大肠杆菌的凋亡。综上分析,纳米银能够抑制土壤可培养微生物生长和酶活性,其中脲酶、过氧化氢酶对纳米银较为敏感,蔗糖酶、FDA酶受纳米银的影响较小;纳米银的毒性一方面是其本身的特异抗菌性,也有部分来自缓慢释放的银离子。     

Luzernemehl-induzierte Aktivitätserhöhung (LIA) in ökotoxikologisch-mikrobiologischen Tests

In previous trials, lucerne-meal induced increase in microbial activities (=LIA) was used as a new ecotoxicological indicator of pesticide effects on soil microorganisms. In the following, this technique has been applied to measure and compare the effects of the two dinitrophenol herbicides ‘Flüssig Herbogil’ (active ingredient dinoterb) and ‘Aretit flüssig’ (active ingredient dinoseb acetate) used as reference compounds. A loamy sand soil known for its sensitive microflora was treated with the herbicides and incubated up to 90 days under laboratory conditions. In order to ensure the comparison of the specific effects, equal amounts of the active ingredients of the two formulated herbicides, based on the field rate of ‘Flüssig Herbogil’, were applied. In a parallel trial, the soil was additionally amended with lucerne meal to enable the determination of its specific stimulatory effect on microbial activity. The two biomass-related microbial activities dehydrogenase (=DHA) and glucose-induced short-term respiration (=KZA) were measured, as well as the nitrogen mineralization (=N_min). Depending on the dosage, the activities of LIA-DHA, LIA-KZA and LIA-N_min as increased by lucerne meal, were affected by the herbicides. Normally, the biomass-related activities were inhibited with exception of LIA-DHA at the single dosage. However, the nitrogen mineralization was enhanced. In most cases, the effects caused by ‘Flüssig Herbogil’ (dinoterb) were more pronounced than those of ‘Aretit flüssig’ (dinoseb agetate) when the same amount of the active ingredients had been applied. The LIA of the tested microbial activities proved to be a sensitive indicator for pesticide effects on soil microorganisms. It enabled the differentiation of the ecotoxic effects of chemically similar pesticides. Using this indicator will support results from separate trials run with or without lucerne meal, because marked losses of microbial biomass will become more pronounced. In addition, this improves the interpretation of ecotoxicological effects of pesticides in soil.     

外源镧对土壤微生物碳源利用的影响

用14 C标记葡萄糖法研究了外源镧对土壤微生物碳源利用的影响。结果表明 :外源镧在低浓度下可增强土壤微生物利用碳源进行呼吸作用 ,而高浓度下则产生显著抑制作用 ,最大抑制率为 3 3 %。土壤微生物呼吸产生的14 CO2 主要是培养初期释放的 ,培养 14d后14 CO2 释放已非常少。外源镧可增强土壤微生物利用碳源合成自身的生物量 ,最大增幅为 2 5 %。     

锑和砷对固氮菌的毒性效应及其机制研究

锑作为一种具有毒性和致癌性的类金属,其不合理的开发造成了严重的生态环境污染,尤其是土壤中高浓度锑和砷污染导致了环境中多种营养元素的缺乏。其中,氮素的缺乏严重阻碍了环境的恢复。然而,固氮微生物不仅能为氮素匮乏环境提供稳定的氮素来源,而且其固氮潜能可以作为监测土壤金属污染的敏感指标。为此,该文通过乙炔还原法(ARA)微宇宙培养试验手段,研究了不同价态锑和砷(三价及五价)在不同质量浓度(100、200、500、1 000、2 500、5 000 mg·L^-1)水平下对棕色固氮菌固氮潜能的影响,同时进一步探究了土壤固氮菌群落固氮潜能对土壤中主要锑和砷价态[Sb(Ⅴ)和As(Ⅴ)]的响应机制。结果表明,锑和砷浓度与棕色固氮菌和土壤固氮微生物的固氮潜能均呈显著负相关,验证了以固氮微生物固氮潜能作为生物指示物的可行性。此外,Sb(Ⅴ)对土壤固氮微生物的毒性显著小于As(Ⅴ)。三价锑和砷污染对固氮菌固氮潜能的毒性高于五价[As(Ⅲ)>Sb(Ⅲ)>As(Ⅴ)>Sb(Ⅴ)],这可能是由于Sb(Ⅲ)和As(Ⅲ)对细胞的致裂性强于Sb(Ⅴ)和As(Ⅴ)。相较于Sb(Ⅴ)和As(Ⅴ)对于棕色固氮菌固氮潜能的抑制作用,其对土壤固氮菌群落的固氮潜能的影响相对较弱。这一差异可能是由于土壤复杂的理化性质以及微生物群落和功能多样性而导致的。     

Behaviour of pendimethalin and oxyfluorfen in peanut field soil: effects on soil biological and biochemical activities

A field experiment was conducted to study the dissipation kinetics of herbicides pendimethalin and oxyfluorfen in black soil of peanut field at half recommended rate (HRE), recommended rate and double recommended rate as well as to assess their effects on soil microbial parameters and enzymatic activities. In addition, their role in the transformations and availability of some plant nutrients like nitrogen transformation (through ammonification and nitrification processes) and availability of phosphorous were also studied. Incorporation of these herbicides was found to stimulate the activity of soil microbial biomass carbon, fluorescein diacetate hydrolysing activity, alkaline phosphatase and ammonification rates, while dehydrogenase activity, acid phosphatase, nitrification rate and available phosphorous was adversely affected. However, urease remains almost unchanged except for little stimulation at later stages. Dissipation of pendimethalin and oxy?uorfen followed first-order reaction kinetics with half-life (T_1/2) of 13.7–20.1 and 21.5–27.4 days, respectively. Residues of both herbicides persisted up to 60 days in the soil at all the doses except 45 days for pendimethalin at HRE.     

长春市土壤微生物生化作用与重金属化学形态关系研究

研究了长春市土壤微生物的生化作用强度（氨化作用强度、固氮作用强度,纤维素分解强度和土壤基础呼吸）与重金属（Pb、Cd、Cu、Zn和Ni）化学形态的关系。通过科学采样和实验室测试分析了不同功能区土壤中,重金属含量和化学形态与微生物生化作用强度,并使用相关分析、偏相关分析多种数据统计方法进行数据处理。结果表明：各功能区因土地利用方式的差别和土壤中重金属的各种化学形态对土壤微生物生化作用强度有不同的影响。其中氨化作用与交换态Cd、Zn和Ni含量呈显著正相关;固氮作用与土壤重金属各化学形态相关性均不显著;呼吸作用与铁锰氧化物结合态Pd和交换态Cu呈显著正相关;纤维素分解作用强度与交换态Pd含量呈显著负相关。在土壤理化性质等相关变量受控时,重金属化学形态对微生物生化作用强度的影响有较明显的变化。其中与无控制变量相比,在控制变量作用下,纤维素分解作用强度受交换态Pd影响上升了0.0314,表现为交换态Pd抑制纤维素分解作用强度。呼吸作用与交换态Pd的相关系数在无控制因素情况下为-0.1425,在有控制因素情况下为-0.3230,表明交换态Pd促进呼吸作用强度。而有机结合态Ni表现为抑制固氮作用。因此可利用交换态Pd与纤维素分解作用强度、呼吸作用强度的相互关系,有机结合态Ni与固氮作用的相互关系等相结合来评价城市土壤重金属污染状况。文章为评价长春城市土壤重金属污染提供了微生物学指标的理论依据。     

氟喹诺酮污染对淡水水生环境的影响—综述

截至目前,环境中抗生素的行为及其对生态毒性的影响仍被忽视。这一课题的范畴是宽泛的,涉及到广泛的生物体,包括栖居在各种水生生态系统中的微生物,藻类,无脊椎动物和脊椎动物等。改变这种系统中任何一个组成的平衡破坏了整个系统的平衡。在人类和动物医学中,氟喹诺酮的制造和频繁使用引起了对微生物抗生素耐药性流行率增加的高度关注,而且,除此之外,通过各种途径进入环境生态系统的抗生素母体和代谢物化合物的归趋也引起了环境影响关注。相关研究集中在分析环境样品中氟喹诺酮的存留浓度,并且经常使用动物评估模型来测试急性毒性,但是仍然不清楚在水生环境中低水平慢性接触对生命形态的生态毒性影响中起什么作用。本综述的目的是评估氟喹诺酮在动物和人类医学中的使用水平,确定其传播的途径,突出在淡水环境中的生态毒理学影。
