The present study focuses on the successful preparation of microbial palladium nanoparticles (Pd-NPs). The even distribution of Pd in the periplasmic space of B. megaterium Y-4 cells is characterized using a transmission electronic microscopy (TEM) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). X-Ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) revealed the domination of Pd (0) in Pd-NPs. The microbial Pd-NPs were selected to detoxify triclosan (TCS). Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) was used to analyze the intermediate products of dechlorination and oxidization. Free radicals quenching and 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide (DMPO) capturing experiments confirmed the crucial contribution of atomic H• and O to TCS degradation. Besides, TCS degradation by microbial Pd-NPs could alleviate the cytotoxicity of TCS polluted water. Meanwhile, great circulating utilization of microbial Pd-NPs was obtained in degrading TCS. Corresponding findings in the present study could provide new insight into the role of microbial Pd-NPs in detoxifying pollutants.
本研究聚焦于成功制备微生物钯纳米粒子(Pd-NPs)。利用透射电子显微镜(TEM)和扫描电子显微镜(SEM)研究了 Pd 在巨大芽孢杆菌 Y-4 细胞周质空间中的均匀分布。X 射线光电子能谱(XPS)和 X 射线衍射(XRD)表明 Pd-NPs 中主要存在 Pd(0)。选择微生物 Pd-NPs 来降解三氯生(TCS)。利用液相色谱-质谱(LC-MS)分析脱氯和氧化的中间产物。自由基猝灭和 5,5-二甲基-1-吡咯啉 N-氧化物(DMPO)捕获实验证实原子 H•和 O•对 TCS 降解的重要贡献。此外,微生物 Pd-NPs 降解 TCS 可以减轻 TCS 污染水的细胞毒性。同时,在降解 TCS 的过程中,微生物 Pd-NPs 得到了很好的循环利用。本研究中的相关发现为微生物 Pd-NPs 在污染物解毒中的作用提供了新的见解。
