The purpose of this study was to investigate the biodegradation of malachite green (MG) by Pleurotus eryngii via decolorization. This study also explored the possible mechanisms and toxicity. The results indicated that this fungus exhibited strong decolorizing potential. MG degradation based on UPLC-TOF-Triple-MS analysis revealed the formation of intermediates such as 4-(dimethylamino)benzophenone, 4-(methylamino)benzophenone, and 4-(dimethylamino)phenol. Furthermore, a significant reduction in the toxicity of the degradation products was observed using the zebrafish animal model. A newly discovered dye-decolorizing peroxidase (DyP-PE) from P. eryngii was amplified, cloned, and expressed. The purified 56.4 kDa DyP-PE strongly decolorized MG, suggesting potentially application in the bioremediation of MG pollution. Thus, the DyP-PE derived from P. eryngii may contribute to the degradation of MG.

Malachite green (MG) is used as a dye for materials such as wood, cotton, and nylon, and is used in aquaculture to prevent fungal and protozoan diseases. However, it is highly toxic, with carcinogenic, mutagenic, and teratogenic properties, resulting in bans worldwide. Despite this, MG is still frequently used in many countries due to its efficacy and economy.

Sustainable management of textile industrial wastewater is one of the severe challenges in the current regime. It has been reported that each year huge amount of textile industry discharge especially the dye released into the environment without pre-treatment that adversely affect the human health and plant productivity. In the present study, different bacterial isolates had been isolated from the industrial effluents and investigated for their bioremediation potential against the malachite green (MG) dye, a major pollutant of textile industries.

Effect of Exogenous Glucose on Molecular Transport through Bacterial Membranes Studied by Second Harmonic Light Scattering.

J Phys Chem B

December 2024

Department of Chemistry and Institute for Membranes and Interfaces, Temple University, 1901 North 13th Street, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19122, United States.

Recent studies revealed that exogenous glucose increases the efficacy of aminoglycosides in eliminating bacterial persister cells. It was speculated that this increased antimicrobial efficacy is induced by glucose-facilitated uptake of the antibiotics. Here, we examine this hypothesis by using second-harmonic light scattering to time-resolve the transport of an antimicrobial quaternary ammonium compound (QAC), malachite green, across the membranes of living () in the presence of glucose.
