    Abstract Globally extensive research into how silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) affect enzyme activity in soils with differing properties has been limited by cost-prohibitive sampling. In this study, customized machine learning (ML) was used to extract data patterns from complex research, with a hit rate of Random Forest > Multiple Imputation by Chained Equations > Decision Tree > K-Nearest Neighbors. Results showed that soil properties played a pivotal role in determining AgNPs' effect on soil enzymes, with the order being pH > organic matter (OM) > soil texture ≈ cation exchange capacity (CEC). Notably, soil enzyme activity was more sensitive to AgNPs in acidic soil (pH < 5.5), while elevated OM content (>1.9 %) attenuated AgNPs toxicity. Compared to soil acidification, reducing soil OM content is more detrimental in exacerbating AgNPs' toxicity and it emerged that clay particles were deemed effective in curbing their toxicity. Meanwhile sand particles played a very different role, and a sandy soil sample at > 40 % of the water holding capacity (WHC), amplified the toxicity of AgNPs. Perturbation mapping of how soil texture alters enzyme activity under AgNPs exposure was generated, where soils with sand (45-65 %), silt (< 22 %), and clay (35-55 %) exhibited even higher probability of positive effects of AgNPs. The average calculation results indicate the sandy clay loam (75.6 %), clay (74.8 %), silt clay (65.8 %), and sandy clay (55.9 %) texture soil demonstrate less AgNPs inhibition effect. The results herein advance the prediction of the effect of AgNPs on soil enzymes globally and determine the soil types that are more sensitive to AgNPs worldwide.

    Abstract Ferrous sulfide nanoparticles (nFeS) have proven to be effective in removing heavy metals (HMs) from wastewater. One such approach, which has garnered much attention as a sustainable technology, is via the in situ microbial synthesis of nFeS. Here, a sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) strain, Geobacter sulfurreducens, was used to initially biosynthesize ferrous sulfide nanoparticles (SRB-nFeS) and thereafter remove HMs from acid mine drainage (AMD). SRB-nFeS was characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) coupled to an energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS), three-dimensional excitation-emission matrix (3D-EEM) spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Such characterization showed that SRB mediated the reduction of SO

    Abstract The use of senolytic agents to remove senescent cells from atherosclerotic lesions is controversial. A common limitation of previous studies is the failure to rigorously define the effects of senolytic agent ABT-263 (Navitoclax) on smooth muscle cells (SMC) despite studies claiming that these cells are the major source of senescent cells. Moreover, there are no studies on the effect of ABT-263 on endothelial cells (EC), which - along with SMC - comprise 90% of α-smooth muscle actin+ (α-SMA+) myofibroblast-like cells in the protective fibrous cap. Here we tested the hypothesis that treatment of advanced atherosclerotic mice with ABT-263 will reduce lesion size and increase plaque stability. SMC (Myh11-CreERT2-eYFP) and EC (Cdh5-CreERT2-eYFP) lineage tracing Apoe-/- mice were fed a western diet (WD) for 18 weeks, followed by ABT-263 at 100 mg/kg/bw for 6 weeks or 50 mg/kg/bw for 9 weeks. ABT-263 treatment did not change lesion size or lumen area of the brachiocephalic artery (BCA). However, ABT-263 treatment reduced SMC by 90% and increased EC contributions to lesions via EC-to-mesenchymal transition (EndoMT) by 60%. ABT-263 treatment also reduced α-SMA+ fibrous cap thickness by 60% and was associated with a > 50% mortality rate. Taken together, ABT-263 treatment of WD-fed Apoe-/- mice with advanced lesions resulted in multiple detrimental changes, including reduced indices of stability and increased mortality.

    Abstract While laccase oxidation is a novel and promising method for treating arsenite-containing wastewater, the high cost and unsustainability of commercially available enzymes indicate a need to investigate more cost-effective viable alternatives. Here, a microorganism sustained secrete laccase-straw oxidation system (MLOS) was established and subsequently evaluated for the removal of As(III). MLOS showed efficient biological As(III) oxidation, with an As(III) removal efficiency reaching 99.9% at an initial As(III) concentration of 1.0 mg·L

    Abstract As feed additives, oxytetracycline (OTC) and copper ion (Cu(II)) are often detected in livestock and poultry farming wastewater. To address this issue, firstly, the synthesis conditions of Fe/Mn nanoparticles (Fe/Mn NPs) were initially optimized using a response surface methodology (RSM) to yield highly active Fe/Mn NPs, where the application of RSM significantly increased the Fe/Mn NPs' efficiency in removing co-contamination OTC and Cu(II),respectively, from 45.8 to 86.2% and 14.9-67.2%. Secondly, scanning electron microscope and Nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherms results showed that Fe/Mn NPs were composed of elliptic particles between 20 and 40 nm, a specific surface area of 59.5 m
