Duckweed () has the potential to treat anaerobically digested swine wastewater (ADSW), but the effects of antibiotics and heavy metals in ADSW on the treatment performance and mechanism of are not clear. Herein, an experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of sulfamethazine (SMZ) and cupric ion on NH4+-N and total phosphorus (TP) removal from synthetic ADSW. The activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and the contents of photosynthetic pigments, vitamin E, and proteins in duckweed were also evaluated. Under the stress of SMZ, duckweed showed excellent removal efficiency of nutrients, and the results of SOD activity and photosynthetic pigments content indicated that duckweed had good tolerance to SMZ. Interestingly, a combined application of SMZ and cupric ion would inhibit the nutrient removal by duckweed, but significantly increased the contents of photosynthetic pigments, proteins, and vitamin E. In addition, the consequence indicated that high value-added protein and vitamin E products could be produced and harvested by cultivating duckweed in ADSW. Furthermore, possible degradation pathways of SMZ in the duckweed system were proposed based on the analysis with LC-MS/MS. This research proposed a novel view for using duckweed system to remove nutrients from ADSW and produce value-added products under the stress of SMZ and cupric ion.

Nucleoredoxin (NXN) is a prominent oxidoreductase enzyme, classified under the thioredoxin family, and plays a pivotal role in regulating cellular redox homeostasis. Although the functional characterization of NXN has been extensively studied in mammals, its role in fish remains relatively unexplored. In this study, the NXN gene from Planiliza haematocheilus (PhNXN) was molecularly and functionally characterized using in silico tools, expression analyses, and in vitro assays.

Improving the activity of ferrate is one of the main research focus in environmental field. Here, we demonstrate a novel copper oxide (CuO)-Ferrate(VI) system wherein CuO plays a key role in activating Fe(VI) to effectively eliminate phenolic contaminants. The dominant reactive species were determined to be Cu(III) and O, confirmed by in situ Raman spectroscopy, quenching experiments, and EPR tests.

All organisms have evolved sophisticated antioxidant networks and enzymes to counteract reactive radicals, among which thioredoxin (Trx) systems are especially noteworthy. Thioredoxin domain-containing protein 17 (TXNDC17) is a ubiquitously expressed enzyme with oxidoreductase activity belonging to the Trx protein family. This study successfully uncovered and analyzed the TXNDC17 gene in Scomber japonicus (SjTXNDC17).
