Objective: To study the inhibition effect of Salvinia natans ( L. ) All. on harmful algae.
Methods: With Microcystis aeruginosa as the subjects, deionized water, ethanol, acetone, ethyl acetate as solvent, four kinds of crude extracts from Salvinia natans (L.) All. were prepared, and their alga-inhibiting actions were verified, respectively. The crude extracts of Salvinia natans (L.) All. with better inhibition effect were selected. The components of algal inhibiting material through macroporous resin purification were obtained, and determined by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS).
Results: The algicidal effect as follows: ethyl acetate extract > acetone crude extract > ethanol crude extract > water crude extract. Meanwhile, the inhibitory substances of Salvinia natans (L.) All. may be: diacetone alcohol, methyl isobutenyl ketone, 5-methyl-2-(1-methylethyl)-1-hexanol, pentadecanal, 14-heptadecenal, cumene, butyl acetate, ascorbyl dipalmitate, 1, 2-benzenedicarboxylic acid, mono (2- ethylhexyl) ester, dibutyl phthalate and phthalic acid, butyl undecane ester.
Conclusion: The algal inhibiting effect research of Salvinia natans (L.) All., as well as its separation and identification of allelochemicals supplys theoretical basis and practical evidence not only for algae control, but also exploitation of algal inhibiting agent.

Micro- and nanoplastics (MNPs) and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are prevalent in the environment and pose potential threats to ecosystems. However, studies on the phytotoxicity of MNPs and PCBs on primary producers are limited. This study investigated the effects of polystyrene nanoplastics (PS-NPs, 10 mg/L) and 2,2',5,5'-tetrachlorobiphenyl (PCB-52, 0.

Biomaterial-based solar-driven evaporation has great potential for wastewater treatment and seawater desalination with a high energy conversion and utilization efficiency. However, technology gaps still exist for effectively and directly applying multiscale structures and intrinsic water transport channels of natural materials to enhance high-efficiency photothermal evaporation. In this study, a high-performance biomass-derived photothermal evaporative material was obtained using , a common aquatic floating plant, together with simple poly(-phenylenediamine) oxidation modification, building a hybrid biomass evaporator.

Organic pollutants, which have become one of the most striking problems of today, raise concerns about the spread of polyaromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) compounds into ecosystems and their toxic effects on living organisms. The purpose of this study was to determine how harmful 3-nitrofluoranthene (3-NF) exposure was to Salvinia natans, a freshwater macrophyte. Furthermore, it clarifies how this aquatic plant, which is frequently used in phytoremediation of water contaminants and wastewater treatments, interacts with PAHs and contributes to the development of bioremediation methods.

Even though boron is a widely used element in various industries and a contributor to water pollution worldwide, few studies have examined the toxicity of boron in aquatic plants. EDTA is used to maintain aquatic plants cultures, however it is possible to modify the toxicity of metals. The objective of this study is to assess the toxicity of boron in aquatic plants and explore the impact of EDTA presence on the resulting toxic responses.

Aquatic ecosystems are facing increasing exposure to pollutants, posing potential threats to the stability and wellness of aquatic species. This study focused on evaluating the impacts of single and combined exposure to 80 nm polystyrene nanoplastics (PS-NPs, 0.1, 1, 10, 20 mg/L) and decabromodiphenyl ether (BDE-209, 300 ng/L) for 14 days on the bioaccumulation, growth, photosynthesis and oxidative stress in the free-floating fern Salvinia natans.
