Project description:Bioelectrochemical remediation study with ARGs

Project description:Incomplete antibiotic removal in pharmaceutical wastewater treatment plants (PWWTPs) could lead to the development and spread of antibiotic-resistant bacteria (ARBs) and genes (ARGs) in the environment, posing a growing public health threat. In this study, two multiantibiotic-resistant bacteria, Ochrobactrum intermedium (N1) and Stenotrophomonas acidaminiphila (N2), were isolated from the sludge of a PWWTP in Guangzhou, China. The N1 strain was highly resistant to ampicillin, cefazolin, chloramphenicol, tetracycline, and norfloxacin, while the N2 strain exhibited high resistance to ampicillin, chloramphenicol, and cefazolin. Whole-genome sequencing revealed that N1 and N2 had genome sizes of 0.52 Mb and 0.37 Mb, respectively, and harbored 33 and 24 ARGs, respectively. The main resistance mechanism in the identified ARGs included efflux pumps, enzymatic degradation, and target bypass, with the N1 strain possessing more multidrug-resistant efflux pumps than the N2 strain (22 vs 12). This also accounts for the broader resistance spectrum of N1 than of N2 in antimicrobial susceptibility tests. Additionally, both genomes contain numerous mobile genetic elements (89 and 21 genes, respectively) and virulence factors (276 and 250 factors, respectively), suggesting their potential for horizontal transfer and pathogenicity. Overall, this research provides insights into the potential risks posed by ARBs in pharmaceutical wastewater and emphasizes the need for further studies on their impact and mitigation strategies.

Project description:We used the mummichog (Fundulus heteroclitus) array we developed to test whether our arrays could be used to monitor the efficacy of remediation at an estuarine Superfund site. Shipyard Creek is a chromium-contaminated Superfund site in Charleston, SC undergoing remediation, therefore it provides a unique opportunity to study the efficacy of arrays as a molecular biomarker in of toxicant effects in mummichogs. Mummichogs were captured in Shipyard Creek in Charleston, SC prior to remediation (2000), after remediation began (2003), and as remediation further progressed (2005). Simultaneously, mummichogs were collected from a reference site at the Winyah-Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve (NERR). The hepatic gene expression pattern of fish captured at Shipyard Creek showed wide differences from the fish captured at NERR in 2000. As remediation progressed the gene expression pattern of fish captured at Shipyard Creek became increasingly similar to fish captured at NERR, and the number of genes differently expressed dropped from 22 to 4. The magnitude of differential gene expression of the individual genes also decreased during remediation. The recovering gene expression profile is associated with lower chromium bioavailability, demonstrated through significantly decreased body burden and sediment concentrations. For example, sediment concentrations at Shipyard Creek were 80-fold greater than NERR in 2000, 51-fold greater in 2003, and only 8-fold greater in 2005. However, hydraulic dredging in 2005 stirred up the sediments and increased body burden of chromium even though chromium sediment concentrations continued to drop. Therefore, the number of differentially expressed genes increased to 9. Overall, the data supports our hypothesis that arrays can be used to monitor site mitigation, as the number of genes differentially expressed mimics the body burden and also indicates when on-site remediation is increasing bioavailability.
