The persistent and hazardous nature of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) released into the soil has become a critical global concern, contributing to environmental pollution. In this study, the removal efficiency of phenanthrene and naphthalene degradation by complex flora or pure bacteria combined with corn and their effects on the growth of corn, pH, and the number of soil bacteria were investigated using a pot experiment. The results indicate that the corn remediation method (P) outperformed degrading bacteria remediation (B) for phenanthrene, yet the combination (PB) exhibited significantly higher removal efficiency.

Mannan oligosaccharides with degree polymerization of 3-13 were obtained by stepwise hydrolysis of locust bean gum using β-mannanase and α-galactosidase, named as LBOS. The activated LBOS was further chemically conjugated with sialic acid (Sia, N-acetylneuraminic acid) by fluoro-mercapto chemical coupling to synthesize a conjugate LBOS-Sia, and then phosphorylated to obtain pLBOS-Sia.
