A comparative analysis of the four commercially available and laboratory luminescent sensor strains to the toxic effect of 10 carbon-based nanomatherials (CBNs) and 10 metal nanoparticles (MNPs) was carried out in this study. The bioluminescence inhibition assays with marine Photobacterium phosphoreum and recombinant Escherichia coli strains were varied in minimal toxic concentrations and EC50 values but led to well correlated biotoxicity evaluation for the most active compounds were ranked as Cu > (MgO, CuO) > (fullerenol, graphene oxide). The novel sensor strain Bacillus subtilis EG 168-1 exhibited the highest sensitivity to CBNs and MNPs that increased significantly number of toxic compounds causing the bacterial bioluminescence inhibition effect.

Article Synopsis
- Animals, along with their microbial communities, are called metaorganisms, but many species' microbial diversity is still understudied.
- This study used shotgun DNA sequencing to analyze the microbial composition of the gut mucus in Northeast Arctic cod and compared it with their fecal microbiota.
- Results showed three distinct taxonomic profiles in the gut mucus, indicating a unique and diverse microbial population separate from the more uniform bacteria found in their feces.

Organophosphate esters (OPEs) have attracted extensive attention due to their toxic effects on human health and biological systems as plasticizers and flame retardants. This study focused on exploring a green approach to get toxicity mechanisms that used less solvents or organisms. The toxicity values of selected organophosphate esters including tri (2-chloroethyl) phosphate (TCEP), tri (1, 3-dichloro-2-propyl) phosphate (TDCP), tripropyl phosphate (TPrP), tri-n-butyl phosphate (TnBP), and tritolyl Phosphate (TCrP) to Photobacterium phosphoreum were determined.

ZIF-67, as a typical MOF material, is considered a new type of high-potential adsorbent due to its ample surface area and tunable surface chemistry, which has the potential to interact with other contaminants in unforeseen ways, resulting in combined toxicity. To further elucidate this possibility, we chose typical bisphenol compound (BP) which is widely used in commercial manufacturing, to explore the combined toxicity with MOF. MOF showed a high adsorption capacity for BPAF (> 80 %) and the weakest adsorption capacity for BPA (< 10 %), and DFT confirmed the different interaction strengths of MOF for BPs.

Luminous marine bacteria are traditionally used as a bioassay due to the convenience and high rate of registering the intensity of their physiological function - luminescence. This study aimed to develop the application of Photobacterium phosphoreum in traditional and novel fields - toxicity monitoring and biotechnology. We demonstrated (1) effects of selenite ions on bioluminescence, and (2) biotransformation of selenite to selenium(0) in the form of nanoparticles.
