What is Impact of different environmental particles on degradation of dibutyl phthalate in coastal sediments with and without Cylindrotheca closterium about?
This study investigated the impact of different environmental particles at different concentrations (0.2% and 2%, w/w) on biodegradation of dibutyl phthalate (DBP) in sediments with and without Cylindrotheca closterium, a marine benthic diatom. The particles included biochar pyrolyzed at 400 °C, multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWNT), nanoscale zero-valent iron (nZVI) and polyethylene microplastic. In treatments without C. closterium, inhibition effect of the particles on degradation percentage of DBP (up to 15.7% decrement except 1.7% increment for 0.2% nZVI) increased with the increase of particle sorption ability to DBP and particle concentration in general. The results of 16s rDNA sequencing showed that C. closterium was probably the most abundant DBP-degrader, accounting for 20.0-49.3% of the total taxon read numbers. In treatments with C. closterium, inoculation of C. closterium increased the degradation percentage of DBP in all treatments with particle addition by 0.0-11.3%, which increased with the increase of chlorophyll a content in general but decreased with the increase of particle concentration from 0.2% to 2%. The increment was the highest for treatment with 0.2% nZVI ad
