Non-antibiotic pharmaceuticals promote the transmission of multidrug resistance plasmids through intra- and intergenera conjugation

Yue Wang et al.

Summary: Non-antibiotic pharmaceuticals, commonly consumed at clinically and environmentally relevant concentrations, have been shown to significantly accelerate the spread of antibiotic resistance through plasmid-mediated bacterial conjugation. These drugs induce responses in bacteria similar to those caused by exposure to antibiotics, highlighting the potential for non-antibiotic pharmaceuticals to enhance the transfer of antibiotic resistance genes among bacterial populations.

Quantitative characterization of toxicity interaction within antibiotic-heavy metal mixtures on Chlorella pyrenoidosa by a novel area-concentration ratio method

Tao Wang et al.

Summary: Toxicity interaction, synergism, and antagonism can occur when multiple pollutants are exposed to the environment simultaneously, limiting the utility of standard toxicity assessment models. The development of a novel model, the ACR method, allows for quantitative characterization of combined toxicity and shows varying trends in toxicity interactions in different mixture systems.

Determination of Cr(VI) based on the peroxidase mimetic catalytic activity of citrate-capped gold nanoparticles

Yingying Qi et al.

Summary: Highly negatively charged gold nanoparticles demonstrate strong simulated oxidase activity and are able to effectively enhance the oxidation of enzyme substrate in the presence of hexavalent chromium ion, leading to the development of a colorimetric assay for Cr(VI) detection with high selectivity and low detection limit. This method offers a practical tool for monitoring Cr(VI) in the environment.
