1Antimony oxidation and adsorption by in-situ formed biogenic Mn oxide and Fe–Mn oxides显示文摘Antimony(Sb), which can be toxic at relatively low concentrations, may co-exist with Mn(Ⅱ)and/or Fe(Ⅱ) in some groundwater and surface water bodies. Here we investigated the potential oxidation and adsorption pathways of Sb(Ⅲ and V) species in the presence of Mn(Ⅱ) and Mn-oxidizing bacteria, with or without Fe(Ⅱ). Batch experiments were conducted to determine the oxidation and adsorption characteristics of Sb species in the presence of biogenic Mn oxides(BMOs), which were formed in-situ via the oxidation of Mn(Ⅱ) by a Mn-oxidizing bacterium(Pseudomonas sp. QJX-1). Results indicated that Sb(Ⅲ) ions could be oxidized to Sb(V) ions by BMO, but only Sb(V) originating from Sb(Ⅲ) oxidation was adsorbed effectively by BMO. Introduced Fe(Ⅱ) was chemically oxidized to Fe OOH, the precipitates of which mixed with BMO to form a new compound, biogenic Fe–Mn oxides(BFMO). The BMO part of the BFMO mainly oxidized and the Fe OOH of the BFMO mainly adsorbed the Sb species. In aquatic solutions containing both As(Ⅲ) and Sb(Ⅲ), the BFMO that formed in-situ preferentially oxidized Sb over As but adsorbed As more efficiently. Chemical analysis and reverse transcription real-time polymerase chain reaction revealed that the presence of Fe(Ⅱ), As(Ⅲ) and Sb(Ⅲ) accelerated the oxidation of Mn(Ⅱ) but inhibited the activity of Mn-oxidizing bacteria. These results provide significant insights into the biogeochemical pathways of Sb, Mn(Ⅱ) in aquatic ecosystems, with or without Fe(Ⅱ).Yaohui Bai William A.Jefferson Jinsong Liang Tingting Yang Jiuhui Qu 2017Journal of Environmental Sciences2017,29,4:12
2Comparison of the effects of aluminum and iron(Ⅲ)salts on ultrafiltration membrane biofouling in drinking water treatment显示文摘Coagulation plays an important role in alleviating membrane fouling, and a noticeable problem is the development of microorganisms after long-time operation, which gradually secrete extracellular polymeric substances(EPS). To date, few studies have paid attention to the behavior of microorganisms in drinking water treatment with ultrafiltration(UF)membranes. Herein, the membrane biofouling was investigated with different aluminum and iron salts. We found that Al_2(SO_4)_3·18 H_2O performed better in reducing membrane fouling due to the slower growth rate of microorganisms. In comparison to Al_2(SO_4)_3·18H_2O,more EPS were induced with Fe_2(SO_4)_3·x18H_2O, both in the membrane tank and the sludge on the cake layer. We also found that bacteria were the major microorganisms, of which the concentration was much higher than those of fungi and archaea. Further analyses showed that Proteobacteria was dominant in bacterial communities, which caused severe membrane fouling by forming a biofilm, especially for Fe_2(SO_4)_3·x18H_2O. Additionally, the abundances of Bacteroidetes and Verrucomicrobia were relatively higher in the presence of Al_2(SO_4)_3·18 H_2O,resulting in less severe biofouling by effectively degrading the protein and polysaccharide in EPS. As a result, in terms of microorganism behaviors, Al-based salts should be given preference as coagulants during actual operations.Xing Wang Baiwen Ma Yaohui Bai Huachun Lan Huijuan Liu Jiuhui Qu 2018Journal of Environmental Sciences2018,30,1:8
3The effects of hydrogen peroxide pre-oxidation on ultrafiltration membrane biofouling alleviation in drinking water treatment显示文摘Pre-oxidation is widely used to reduce ultrafiltration membrane fouling.However,the variation in the composition of microbial communities and extracellular polymeric substances(EPSs) accompanying pre-oxidation in drinking water treatment has received little attention.In this study,hydrogen peroxide(H_2O_2) was used in a coagulationultrafiltration process with Al_2(SO_4)_3·18H_2O.A long-term reactor experiment(60 d) showed that pre-oxidation alleviated membrane fouling,mainly due to its inhibition of microbial growth,as observed by flow cytometry measurements of the membrane tank water.Further analysis of the formed cake layer demonstrated that the corresponding levels of EPS released from the microbes were lower with than without H_2O_2 treatment.In comparison to polysaccharides,proteins dominated the EPS.2 D-electrophoresis showed little difference(p > 0.05,Student's t-test) in the composition of proteins in the cake layer between the treatments with and without H_2O_2.The molecular weights of proteins ranged from approximately 30–50 kDa and the majority of isoelectric points ranged from 6 to 8.Highthroughput sequencing showed that the predominant bacteria were Proteobacteria,Bacteroidetes,and Verrucomicrobia in both cake layers.However,the relative abundance of Planctomycetes was higher in the cake layer with H_2O_2 pre-oxidation,which was likely probably due to the strong oxidative resistance of its cell wall.Overall,our findings clarify the fundamental molecular mechanism in H_2O_2 pre-oxidation for ultrafiltration membrane bio-fouling alleviation in drinking water treatment.Xing Wang Baiwen Ma Yaohui Bai Huachun Lan Huijuan Liu Jiuhui Qu 2018Journal of Environmental Sciences2018,30,11:4
4Selection of water source for water transfer based on algal growth potential to prevent algal blooms显示文摘Water transfer is becoming a popular method for solving the problems of water quality deterioration and water level drawdown in lakes. However, the principle of choosing water sources for water transfer projects has mainly been based on the effects on water quality, which neglects the influence in the variation of phytoplankton community and the risk of algal blooms. In this study, algal growth potential(AGP) test was applied to predict changes in the phytoplankton community caused by water transfer projects. The feasibility of proposed water transfer sources(Baqing River and Jinsha River) was assessed through the changes in both water quality and phytoplankton community in Chenghai Lake, Southwest China. The results showed that the concentration of total nitrogen(TN) and total phosphorus(TP) in Chenghai Lake could be decreased to 0.52 mg/L and 0.02 mg/L respectively with the simulated water transfer source of Jinsha River. The algal cell density could be reduced by 60%, and the phytoplankton community would become relatively stable with the Jinsha River water transfer project, and the dominant species of Anabaena cylindrica evolved into Anabaenopsis arnoldii due to the species competition. However, the risk of algal blooms would be increased after the Baqing River water transfer project even with the improved water quality. Algae gained faster proliferation with the same dominant species in water transfer source. Therefore, water transfer projects should be assessed from not only the variation of water quality but also the risk of algal blooms.Yongjun Song Jing Qi Le Deng Yaohui Bai Huijuan Liu Jiuhui Qu 2021Journal of Environmental Sciences2021,33,5:3
5Influence of floc dynamic protection layer on alleviating ultrafiltration membrane fouling induced by humic substances显示文摘Cake layer formation is inevitable over time for ultrafiltration(UF)membrane-based drinking water treatment.Although the cake layer is always considered to cause membrane fouling,it can also act as a'dynamic protection layer',as it further adsorbs pollutants and dramatically reduces their chance of getting to the membrane surface.Here,the UF membrane fouling performance was investigated with pre-deposited loose flocs in the presence of humic acid(HA).The results showed that the floc dynamic protection layer played an important role in removing HA.The higher the solution pH,the more negative the floc charge,resulting in lower HA removal efficiency due to the electrostatic repulsion and large pore size of the floc layer.With decreasing solution pH,a positively charged floc dynamic protection layer was formed,and more HA molecules were adsorbed.The potential reasons were ascribed to the smaller floc size,greater positive charge,and higher roughness of the floc layer.However,similar membrane fouling performance was also observed for the negative and positive floc dynamic protection layers due to their strong looseness characteristics.In addition,the molecular weight(MW)distribution of HA also played an important role in UF membrane fouling behavior.For the small MW HA molecules,the chance of forming a loose cake layer was high with a negatively charged floc dynamic protection layer,while for the large MW HA molecules it was high with a positively charged floc dynamic protection layer.As a result,slight UF membrane fouling was induced.Baiwen Ma Siqi Wu Bodong Wang Zenglu Qi Yaohui Bai Huijuan Liu Jiuhui Qu Ruijun Wu 2020Journal of Environmental Sciences2020,32,4:2
6A system for automated monitoring of embankment deformation along the Qinghai-Tibet Railway in permafrost regions显示文摘At present, the monitoring of embankment deformation in permafrost regions along the Qinghai-Tibet Railway is mainly done manually. However, the harsh climate on the plateau affects the results greatly by lowering the observation frequency, so the manual monitoring can barely meet the observational demand. This research develops a system of automated monitoring of embankment deformation, and aims to address the problems caused by the plateau climate and the permafrost conditions in the region. The equipment consists of a monitoring module, a data collection module, a transmission module, and a data processing module. The field experiments during this program indicate that(1) the combined automated monitoring device overcame the problems associated with the complicated and tough plateau environment by means of wireless transmission and automatic analysis of the embankment settlement data;(2) the calibration of the combined settlement gauge at-20 °C was highly accurate, with an error rate always <0.5%;(3) the gauge calibration at high-temperature conditions was also highly accurate, with an error rate <0.5% even though the surface of the instrument reached more than 50 °C; and(4) compared with the data manually taken, the data automatically acquired during field monitoring experiments demonstrated that the combined settlement gauge and the automated monitoring system could meet the requirements of the monitoring mission in permafrost regions along the Qinghai-Tibet Railway.YongPeng Yang YaoHui Qu HanCheng Cai JiaCheng CaiMei Tang 2015Research in Cold and Arid Regions2015,7,5:2
7Mitigating microbiological risks of potential pathogens carrying antibiotic resistance genes and virulence factors in receiving rivers:benefits of wastewater treatment plant upgrade显示文摘Wastewater treatment plants(WWTPs)with additional tertiary ultrafiltration membranes and ozonation treatment can improve water quality in receiving rivers.However,the impacts of WWTP upgrade(WWTP-UP)on pathogens carrying antibiotic resistance genes(ARGs)and virulence factors(VFs)in rivers remain poorly understood.In this study,ARGs,VFs,and their pathogenic hosts were investigated in three rivers impacted by large-scale WWTP-UP.A five-year sampling campaign covered the periods before and after WWTP-UP.Results showed that the abundance of total metagenome-assembled genomes(MAGs)containing both ARGs and VFs in receiving rivers did not decrease substantially after WWTP-UP,but the abundance of MAGs belonging to pathogenic genera that contain both ARGs and VFs(abbreviated as PAVs)declined markedly.'Genome-resolved metagenomics further revealed that WWTP-UP not only reduced most types of VFs and ARGs in PAVs,but also effectively eliminated efflux pump and nutritional VFs carried by PAVs in receiving rivers.WWTP-UP narrowed the pathogenic host ranges of ARGs and VFs and mitigated the cooccurrence of ARGs and VFs in receiving rivers.These findings underline the importance of WWTPUP for the alleviation of pathogens containing both ARGs and VFs in receiving rivers。Guannan Mao Donglin Wang Yaohui Bai Jiuhui Qu 2023Frontiers of Environmental Science & Engineering2023,17,7:1
8Tunable 2D tremella-derived carbon nanosheets with enhanced pseudocapacitance behavior for ultrafast potassium-ion storage显示文摘The sluggish intercalation kinetics of potassium ions in various anode materials severely hinders the practical application of potassium ion batteries(PIBs) in the field of new energy storage. To overcome this difficulty, we developed a green and recyclable molten-salt(MS) strategy using natural tremella as raw material to construct self-N-doped two-dimensional(2D)tremella-derived carbon nanosheets(TCNs), which possesses large specific surface area(SSA), expanded interlayer spacing and rich defects/active sites. Thanks to the unique 2D nanosheet structure and self-N doping, TCNs800 electrode exhibits superior K+storage capacity(386.3 mA h g^(-1) at 0.1 A g^(-1)), ultrafast rate performance(119.7 mA h g^(-1) at 2.0 A g^(-1)) and long-term cycling stability(122.9 mA h g^(-1) with the Coulombic efficiency of near 100% after 1000 cycles). Moreover, detailed electrochemical kinetic analysis shows that the potassium-ion storage mechanism of TCNs800 electrode has enhanced by the pseudocapacitancecontrolled behavior. This work proves an effective green and environmentally friendly MS strategy to prepare 2D biomass nanosheet materials, and provides a reference for exploring excellent electrode materials with pseudocapacitance-controlled behavior.ZHU LingFeng ZHANG Ze ZHANG Hai WANG Yun LUO JinDi YU Ji QU YaoHui YANG ZhenYu 2021Science China(Technological Sciences)2021,64,9:0
9Mixing regime shapes the community assembly process,microbial interaction and proliferation of cyanobacterial species Planktothrix in a stratified lake显示文摘Lake mixing influences aquatic chemical properties and microbial community composition,and thus,we hypothesized that it would alter microbial community assembly and interac-tion.To clarify this issue,we explored the community assembly processes and cooccurrence networks in four seasons at two depths(epilimnion and hypolimnion)in a mesotrophic and stratified lake(Chenghai Lake),which formed stratification in the summer and turnover in the winter.During the stratification period,the epilimnion and hypolimnion went through contrary assembly processes but converged to similar assembly patterns in the mixing pe-riod.In a highly homogeneous selection environment,species with low niche breadth were filtered,resulting in decreased species richness.Water mixing in the winter homogenized the environment,resulting in a simpler microbial cooccurrence network.Interestingly,we observed a high abundance of the cyanobacterial genus Planktothrix in the winter,proba-bly due to nutrient redistribution and Planktothrix adaptivity to the winter environment in which mixing played important roles.Our study provides deeper fundamental insights into how environmental factors influence microbial community structure through community assembly processes.Junwen Chen Huacong Liu Yaohui Bai Jing Qi Weixiao Qi Huijuan Liu Jianfeng Peng Jiuhui Qu 2022Journal of Environmental Sciences2022,34,5:0
10Digitalizing river aquatic ecosystems显示文摘Traditional river health assessment relies on limited water quality indices and representative organism activity,but does not comprehensively obtain biotic and abiotic information of the ecosystem.Here,we propose a new approach to evaluate the ecological and health risks of river aquatic ecosystems.First,detailed physicochemical and biological characterization of a river ecosystem can be obtained through pollutant determination(especially emerging pollutants)and DNA/RNA sequencing.Second,supervised machine learning can be applied to perform classification analysis of characterization data and ascertain river ecosystem ecology and health.Our proposed methodology transforms river ecosystem health assessment and can be applied in river management.Yaohui Bai Hui Lin Chenchen Wang Qiaojuan Wang Jiuhui Qu 2024Journal of Environmental Sciences2024,,3:0
11Endorepellin downregulation promotes angiogenesis after experimental traumatic brain injury显示文摘Endorepellin plays a key role in the regulation of angiogenesis,but its effects on angiogenesis after traumatic brain injury are unclear.This study explored the effects of endorepellin on angiogenesis and neurobehavioral outcomes after traumatic brain injury in mice.Mice were randomly divided into four groups:sham,controlled cortical impact only,adeno-associated virus(AAV)-green fluorescent protein,and AAV-shEndorepellin-green fluorescent protein groups.In the controlled cortical impact model,the transduction of AAV-shEndorepellin-green fluorescent protein downregulated endorepellin while increasing the number of CD31+/Ki-67+proliferating endothelial cells and the functional microvessel density in mouse brain.These changes resulted in improved neurological function compared with controlled cortical impact mice.Western blotting revealed increased expression of vascular endothelial growth factor and angiopoietin-1 in mice treated with AAV-shEndorepellin-green fluorescent protein.Synchrotron radiation angiography showed that endorepellin downregulation promoted angiogenesis and increased cortical neovascularization,which may further improve neurobehavioral outcomes.Furthermore,an in vitro study showed that downregulation of endorepellin increased tube formation by human umbilical vein endothelial cells compared with a control.Mechanistic analysis found that endorepellin downregulation may mediate angiogenesis by activating vascular endothelial growth factor-and angiopoietin-1-related signaling pathways.Qian Zhang Yao Jing Qiuyuan Gong Lin Cai Ren Wang Dianxu Yang Liping Wang Meijie Qu Hao Chen Yaohui Tang Hengli Tian Jun Ding Zhiming Xu 2024Neural Regeneration Research2024,19,5:0
12The Phragmites Root-Inhabiting Microbiome: A Critical Review on Its Composition and Environmental Application显示文摘As widespread wetland plants,Phragmites play a vital role in water purification and are widely utilized in constructed wetlands(accounting for 15.5%of applied wetland plants)as a natural alternative to wastewater treatment.However,despite such common applications,current understanding of the basic composition of the Phragmites root-inhabiting microbiome and the complex functions of each member of this microbiome remains incomplete,especially regarding pollution remediation.This review summa-rizes the advances that have been made in ecological and biochemical research on the Phragmites root microbiome,including bacteria,archaea,and fungi.Based on next-generation sequencing,microbial com-munity compositions have been profiled under various environmental conditions.Furthermore,culture-based methods have helped to clarify the functions of the microbiome,such as metal iron stabilization,organic matter degradation,and nutrient element transformation.The unique community structure and functions are highly impacted by Phragmites lineages and environmental factors such as salinity.Based on the current understanding of the Phragmites root microbiome,we propose that synthetic microbial com-munities and iron–manganese plaque could be applied and intensified in constructed wetlands to help promote their water purification performance.Donglin Wang Yaohui Bai Jiuhui Qu 2022Engineering2022,8,2:0
13Impacts of backwashing on micropollutant removal and associated microbial assembly processes in sand filters显示文摘Backwashing is crucial for preventing clogging of sand filters.However,few studies have investigated the effect of backwashing on micropollutant removal and the dynamic changes in the microbial community in sand filters.Here,we used a series of manganese and quartz sand filters under empty bed contact times(EBCTs)of 2 h and 4 h to explore variations in micropollutant degradation and temporal dynamics of the microbial community after backwashing.The results showed that the removal efficiencies of caffeine,sulfamethoxazole,sulfadiazine,trimethoprim,atrazine,and active biomass recovered within 2 d after backwashing in both types of sand filters at 2-h EBCT,but the recovery of sulfadiazine and trimethoprim was not observed at 4-h EBCT.Moreover,the removal efficiency of atenolol increased after backwashing in the manganese sand filters,whereas maintained almost complete removal efficiency in the quartz sand filters at both EBCTs.Pearson correlation analysis indicated that microbial community composition gradually recovered to the pre-backwashing level(R increased from 0.53 to 0.97)at 2-h EBCT,but shifted at 4-h EBCT(R<0.25)after backwashing.Furthermore,the compositions of the recovered,depleted,and improved groups of microbes were distinguished by applying hierarchical clustering to the differentially abundant amplicon sequence variants.The cumulative relative abundance of recovered microbes at 2-h EBCT was 82.76%±0.43%and 46.82%±4.34%in the manganese and quartz sand filters,respectively.In contrast,at 4-h EBCT,the recovered microbes dropped to 15.55%–25.69%in both types of sand filters.Donglin Wang Jie Zhou Hui Lin Junwen Chen Jing Qi Yaohui Bai Jiuhui Qu 2023Frontiers of Environmental Science & Engineering2023,17,3:0
14Epilithic biofilm as a reservoir for functional virulence factors in wastewater-dominant rivers after WWTP upgrade显示文摘Virulence factors(VFs)confer upon pathogens the ability to cause various types of damage or diseases.Wastewater treatment plants(WWTPs)are important point sources for the emission of pathogens and VFs into receiving rivers.Conventional WWTP upgrades are often implemented to improve the water quality of receiving ecosystems.However,knowledge on the pathogens,VFs,and health risks to receiving aquatic ecosystems after upgrade remains limited.In this study,we investigated detailed pathogenic information,including taxa,pathogenicity,and health risk,in two wastewater-dominant rivers after WWTP upgrade.Using 16S rRNA gene sequencing,we screened 14 potential pathogens in water and epilithic biofilm samples,though they were significantly more enriched in the biofilms.Combining 16S rRNA and metagenomic sequencing data,we identified Pseudomonas and Aeromonas as the dominant pathogenic taxa carrying functional VFs(e.g.,mobility and offensive)in the epilithic biofilm.Moreover,strong pathogen-specific VF-host co-occurrence events were observed in the epilithic biofilm samples,indicating the importance of biofilms as reservoirs and vehicles for VFs.Further,we demonstrated that mobility VF is crucial for biofilm formation and pathogens in biofilm carrying offensive VF may be highly invasive.Quantification and health risk assessment suggested that the skin contact risk of P.aeruginosa carrying VFs was higher than the acceptable probability of 10^(-4)in both water and epilithic biofilm samples,which may threaten ecological and human health.Guannan Mao Jinsong Liang Qiaojuan Wang Chen Zhao Yaohui Bai Ruiping Liu Huijuan Liu Jiuhui Qu 2021Journal of Environmental Sciences2021,33,3:0
15Transport and inhibition mechanism for VMAT2-mediated synaptic vesicle loading of monoamines显示文摘Monoamine neurotransmitters such as serotonin and dopamine are loaded by vesicular monoamine transporter 2(VMAT2)into synaptic vesicles for storage and subsequent release in neurons.Impaired VMAT2 function underlies various neuropsychiatric diseases.VMAT2 inhibitors reserpine and tetrabenazine are used to treat hypertension,movement disorders associated with Huntington’s Disease and Tardive Dyskinesia.Despite its physiological and pharmacological significance,the structural basis underlying VMAT2 substrate recognition and its inhibition by various inhibitors remains unknown.Here we present cryo-EM structures of human apo VMAT2 in addition to states bound to serotonin,tetrabenazine,and reserpine.These structures collectively capture three states,namely the lumen-facing,occluded,and cytosol-facing conformations.Notably,tetrabenazine induces a substantial rearrangement of TM2 and TM7,extending beyond the typical rocker-switch movement.These functionally dynamic snapshots,complemented by biochemical analysis,unveil the essential components responsible for ligand recognition,elucidate the proton-driven exchange cycle,and provide a framework to design improved pharmaceutics targeting VMAT2.Yuwei Wang Pei Zhang Yulin Chao Zhini Zhu Chuanhui Yang Zixuan Zhou Yaohui Li Yonghui Long Yuehua Liu Dianfan Li Sheng Wang Qianhui Qu 2024Cell Research2024,34,1:0
