In this study, two pyridine-degrading strains namely Enterobacter cloacae complex sp. BD17 and Enterobacter sp.BD19 were isolated from the aerobic tank of a pesticide wastewater treatment plant. The mixed bacteria H4 composed of BD17 and BD19 at a ratio of 1:1 was immobilized by Solidago canadensis L. stem biochar with a dosage of 2 g·L. The highest pyridine removal rate of 91.70% was achieved by the immobilized H4 at an initial pyridine concentration of 200 mg·L, pH of 7.0, temperature of 28 °C and salinity of 3.0% within 36 h. The main intermediates of pyridine degradation by BD17 were pyridine-2-carboxamide, 2-aminopropanediamide, and 2-aminoacetamide, while 2-picolinic acid, isopropyl acetate, isopropyl alcohol, and acetaldehyde were identified with BD19 by adopting GC-MS technique. Interestingly, there was a possibility of totally mineralization of pyridine and the corresponding degradation pathways of BD17 and BD19 were revealed for the first time.

Unlabelled: Thin layer chromatography bioautographic assays facilitate the acquisition of activity-profile chromatograms and assist in pinpointing active constituents within complex mixtures by observing the inhibition halos they produce. Peroxidase is an enzyme implicated in the browning of different fresh cut vegetables and in several diseases. A peroxidase bioautographic assay was developed, based on enzyme agarose immobilization and the 2,2'-Azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) diammonium salt/radical cation (ABTS/ABTS) reporter system.

The effects of exotic plants on soil nitrogen (N) transformations may influence species invasion success. However, the complex interplay between invasive plant N uptake and N transformation in soils remains unclear. In the present study, a series of N-labeled pot experiments were carried out with Solidago canadensis L.
