Integrative chemical and multiomics analyses of tetracycline removal mechanisms in Pseudomonas sp. DX-21.

Tetracycline (TC), widely found in various environments, poses significant risks to ecosystems and human health. While efficient biodegradation removes TC, the mechanisms underlying this process have not been elucidated. This study investigated the molecular mechanisms underlying TC biosorption and transfer within the extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) of strain DX-21 and its biodegradation process using fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, molecular docking, and multiomics. Under TC stress, DX-21 increased TC biosorption by secreting more extracellular polysaccharides and proteins, particularly the latter, mitigating toxicity. Moreover, specialized transporter proteins with increased binding capacity facilitated TC movement from the EPS to the cell membrane and within the cell. Transcriptomic and untargeted metabolomic analyses revealed that the presence of TC led to the differential expression of 306 genes and significant alterations in 37 metabolites. Notably, genes related to key enzymes, such as electron transport, peroxidase, and oxidoreductase, exhibited significant differential expression. DX-21 combated and degraded TC by regulating metabolism, altering cell membrane permeability, enhancing oxidative defense, and enhancing energy availability. Furthermore, integrative omics analyses indicated that DX-21 degrades TC via various enzymes, reallocating resources from other biosynthetic pathways. These results advance the understanding of the metabolic responses and regulatory mechanisms of DX-21 in response to TC.

Removal of nitrate nitrogen by Pseudomonas JI-2 under strong alkaline conditions: Performance and mechanism.

The nitrate nitrogen removal characteristics of Pseudomonas JI-2 under strong alkaline conditions and the composition and functional groups of extracellular polymeric substance were analyzed. Furthermore, nontargeted metabonomics and bioinformatics technology were used to investigate the alkaline tolerance mechanism. JI-2 removed 11.05 mg N/(L·h) of nitrate with the initial pH, carbon to nitrogen ratio and temperature were 11.0, 8 and 25 °C respectively. Even when the pH was maintained at 11.0, JI-2 could still effectively remove nitrate. JI-2 contains a large number of Na+/H+ antiporters, such as Mrp, Mnh (mnhACDEFG) and Pha (phaACDEFG), which can stabilize the intracellular acid-base environment, and SlpA can enable quick adaptation to alkaline conditions. Moreover, JI-2 responds to the strong alkaline environment by secreting more polysaccharides, acidic functional groups and compatible solutes and regulating key metabolic processes such as pantothenate and CoA biosynthesis and carbapenem biosynthesis. Therefore, JI-2 can survive in strong alkaline environments and remove nitrate efficiently.

The presence of copper ions alters tetracycline removal pathway in aerobic granular sludge: Performance and mechanism.

This study investigated the removal characteristics of tetracycline (TC) in the presence of copper ions (Cu2+) in aerobic granular sludge by analyzing the TC removal pathway, composition and functional group changes of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS), and microbial community structure. The TC removal pathway changed from cell biosorption to EPS biosorption, and the microbial degradation rate of TC was reduced by 21.37% in the presence of Cu2+. Cu2+ and TC induced enrichment of denitrifying bacteria and EPS-producing bacteria by regulating the expression of signaling molecules and amino acid synthesis genes to increase the content of EPS and -NH2 groups in EPS. Although Cu2+ reduced the content of acidic hydroxyl functional groups (AHFG) in EPS, an increase in TC concentration stimulated the secretion of more AHFG and -NH2 groups in EPS. The long-term presence of TC presence of the relative abundances of Thauera, Flavobacterium and Rhodobacter and improved the removal efficiency.

The performance and mechanism of tetracycline and ammonium removal by Pseudomonas sp. DX-21.

To remove ammonium and tetracycline (TC) from wastewater, a new strain, DX-21, was isolated and exhibited simultaneous removal ability. The performance of DX-21 in TC removal, its removal mechanism, and the potential toxicities of the degradation products were investigated with genomics, mass spectrometry, density functional theory calculations, quantitative structure-activity relationship analyses, and Escherichia coli exposure experiments. DX-21 exhibited removal of ammonium (9.64 mg·L-1·h-1) via assimilation, and TC removal (0.85 mg·L-1·h-1) primarily occurred through cell surface bio-adsorption and biodegradation. Among the 12 identified degradation products, the majority exhibited lower toxicities than TC. Moreover, potential degradation pathways were proposed, including hydroxylation and deamination. Furthermore, DX-21 possessed TC resistance genes, various oxygenases and peroxidases that could potentially contribute to TC degradation. DX-21 colonized activated sludge and significantly enhanced the biodegradation of TC. Therefore, DX-21 showed potential for treating wastewater containing both ammonium and TC.

Iron-loaded sludge biochar alleviates the inhibitory effect of tetracycline on anammox bacteria: Performance and mechanism.

The anaerobic ammonia oxidation (anammox) process is sensitive to environmental pollutants, such as antibiotics. In this study, the harmful effect of tetracycline (TC) on the performance of an anammox reactor and the mitigation of TC inhibition by iron-loaded sludge biochar (Fe-BC) were studied by analyzing extracellular polymeric substances (EPS), microbial community structure and functional genes. The total inorganic nitrogen (TIN) removal rate of the TC reactor was reduced by 5.86% compared to that of the control group, while that of the TC + Fe-BC reactor improved by 10.19% compared to that of the TC reactor. Adding Fe-BC increased the activity of anammox sludge by promoting the secretion of EPS (including protein, humic acids and c-Cyts). The results of the enzymolysis experiment showed that protein can improve the activity of anammox sludge, while the ability of polysaccharide to improve the activity of anammox was related to the treated enzymes. In addition, Fe-BC alleviated the inhibitory effect of TC by mediating the anammox electron transfer process. Furthermore, Fe-BC increased the absolute abundance of hdh and hzsB by 2.77 and 1.18 times compared to the TC reactor and improved the relative abundance of Candidatus Brocadia in the absence of TC. The addition of Fe-BC is an effective way to alleviate the inhibitory effect of TC on the anammox process.

The coexistence of copper ions and TC affected the binding ability and the reaction order between extracellular polymeric substances of aerobic granular sludge and exogenous substances.

As a barrier against external toxic effects, extracellular polymeric substances (EPSs) directly affect the toxicity and removal efficiency of exogenous substances. The reaction of EPSs with exogenous substances has been taken into consideration. The contents of EPSs in sludge cultivated by different influent water vary greatly, which leads to great differences in the binding ability and reaction sequence between EPSs and exogenous substances. However, the results in this respect are very limited. In this study, the binding characteristics between exogenous tetracycline (TC)/copper ions (Cu2+) and EPSs from aerobic granular sludge cultured under single and coexisting TC/Cu2+ were assessed by three-dimensional fluorescence-parallel factor analysis. The pollutants in the influent water could directionally induce microorganisms to secrete more EPSs, while fluorescence substances in EPSs could combine with the exogenous substances to lessen their effects. In the presence of coexisting TC and Cu2+ in the influent water, the ability of fluorescence substances in EPSs to combine with exogenous TC or Cu2+ weakened, and humic substances in EPSs were more susceptible than protein substances to binding with exogenous substances. However, the reaction order between EPSs components and exogenous TC or Cu2+ was opposite, and the ability of fluorescence substances in EPSs to combine with exogenous TC or Cu2+ was enhanced under individual TC or Cu2+ existing in the influent water. This study provided new insights into the interaction between EPSs and exogenous substances.

Performance and mechanism of nitrate removal by the aerobic denitrifying bacterium JI-2 with a strong autoaggregation capacity.

Here, a new strain JI-2 of the strongly autoaggregating aerobic denitrifying bacteria was screened. The nitrate removal ability and autoaggregation mechanism of JI-2 were analyzed using the nitrogen balance and genomics technology. The nitrate removal rate was 27.05 mg N/(L·h) at pH 9.0 and C/N 8.0. The strain JI-2 removes nitrate via the aerobic denitrification and dissimilation pathways and removes ammonium via the assimilation pathway. 66.81 % nitrate was converted to cellular components under aerobic conditions. Complex nitrogen metabolism genes were detected in strain JI-2. C-di-GMP mediates the motility behavior of JI-2 by binding the FleQ and PilZ proteins, and regulating the expression of PslA. Furthermore, the mechanism of autoaggregation was verified by extracellular polymeric substance analysis. Meanwhile, the nitrate removal rates of strain JI-2 was 11.13-12.50 mg N/(L·h) in wastewater. Thus, strain JI-2 has good prospects for application in the treatment of nitrate wastewater.

Performance and mechanism of tetracycline removal by the aerobic nitrate-reducing strain Pseudomonas sp. XS-18 with auto-aggregation.

The coexistence of multiple pollutants has become a distinctive feature of water pollution. However, there are a few strains that can remove nitrate and tetracycline (TC). Here, the efficiency of strain XS-18 in removing nitrate and TC was analyzed, and the mechanism of tolerance and removal of TC was investigated by infrared spectroscopy, three-dimensional fluorescence spectroscopy, and genome analysis. XS-18 could efficiently remove TC (0.40 mg·L-1·h-1) at pH 7.0-11.0 with auto-aggregation. TC was removed via extracellular polymeric substance (EPS) (55.90%) and cell surface (44.10%) adsorption. TC (10 mg/L) could stimulate XS-18 to secrete more polysaccharides and hydrophobic proteins to improve its auto-aggregation ability. The findings also confirmed that TC resistance genes were present. Furthermore, the bacterial flagellum, signal transduction of the chemotactic system and regulatory genes were shown to be related to the auto-aggregation of the strain. XS-18 has potential applications in the treatment of wastewater containing nitrate and TC.

Step feed mode synergistic mixed carbon source to improve sequencing batch reactor simultaneous nitrification and denitrification efficiency of domestic wastewater treatment.

The limited efficiency of nitrogen removal has traditionally hindered wide application of simultaneous nitrification and denitrification (SND) technology. Here, the nitrogen removal characteristics of a sequencing batch reactor were studied by adopting a strategy of a step-feeding mode, synergistic regional oxygen limitation, and a mixed carbon source. The changes of the microbial population succession and nitrogen metabolism functional genes were analyzed. This strategy provided a favorable level of dissolved oxygen and continuous carbon sources for driving the denitrification process. The total nitrogen removal efficiency and SND rate reached 92.60% and 96.49%, respectively, by regulating the ratio of sodium acetate to starch in the step feed to 5:1. This procedure increased the relative abundance of denitrifying functional genes and induced the growth of a variety of traditional denitrifying bacteria and aerobic denitrifying bacteria participating in the process of nitrogen removal. Overall, this work offers a new strategy for achieving efficient SND.

Di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate and dibutyl phthalate have a negative competitive effect on the nitrification of black soil.

Di (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) and dibutyl phthalate (DBP) are the most widely used plasticizers for agricultural mulching films and one of the most common organic pollutants in black soil. However, little is known about the effect of these two contaminants on nitrification in black soil. This study investigated the changes of 20 mg/kg DEHP and DBP on the diversity of nitrification microbial communities, the abundance of ammonia oxidizing bacteria (AOB) and nitrite oxidizing bacteria (NOB) related genes, and the activities of key enzymes involved in nitrification. During ammonia oxidation, DEHP and DBP had uncompetitive inhibition of urease, reducing the copy number of amoA gene, and microorganisms (Azoarcus, Streptomyces and Caulobacter) would use inorganic nitrogen as a nitrogen source for physiological growth. During nitrite oxidation, the copy number of nxrA gene also reduced, and the relative abundance of chemoautotrophic nitrifying bacteria (Nitrosomonas and Nitrobacter) decreased. Moreover, the path analysis results showed that DEHP and DBP mainly directly or indirectly affect AOB and NOB through three ways. These results help better understand the ecotoxicological effects of DEHP and DBP on AOB and NOB in black soil.

Nitrate removal by alkali-resistant Pseudomonas sp. XS-18 under aerobic conditions: Performance and mechanism.

To improve poor nitrate removal by microorganisms under strong alkaline conditions, a new type of aerobic nitrification-reducing bacteria was isolated in this study. Using nitrogen balance and genome information, the capacity of Pseudomonas XS-18 to remove nitrate and the mechanism of alkali tolerance were analyzed. At pH 11.0, XS-18 could remove 12.17 mg N/(L·h) nitrate. At C/N ratios of 13.0 and 25 °C, nitrite and ammonia nitrogen were barely enriched. XS-18 could reduce nitrate through dissimilation and assimilation, and 21.74% and 77.39% of nitrate was converted into cellular components and organic nitrogen, respectively. Meanwhile, functional genes (nirBD, nasAB, gdhA, glnA, and gltBD) associated with nitrogen metabolism were determined. In addition, Na+/H+ antiporters (MnhACDEFG, PhaACDEFG, NhaCD and TrkAH) and a cell surface protein (SlpA) from the XS-18 genome, as well as compatible solutes that help stabilize intracellular pH, were also characterized. XS-18 possessed significant potential in alkaline wastewater treatment.

Tetracycline removal in granulation: Influence of extracellular polymers substances, structure, and metabolic function of microbial community.

Tetracycline is a potentially hazardous residual antibiotic detected in various sewages. High concentration (mg/L) of tetracycline is found in pharmaceutical/hospital wastewater and wastewater derived from livestock and poultry. So far, only antibiotics in µg/L level have been reported in granulation of aerobic sludge during wastewater treatment, but its effects in high concentration are rarely reported. In this study, the influence of tetracycline in high concentration (∼2 mg/L) on the formation of granular sludge, structure, and metabolic function of the microbial community during the granulation of aerobic sludge was investigated to improve the understanding of the aerobic granular sludge formation under high-level of tetracycline. The role of extracellular polymers substances (EPSs) derived from granular sludge in the granulation and tetracycline removal process was also investigated, showing that tetracycline improved the relative hydrophobicity, flocculability and protein/polysaccharide ratio of EPSs, accelerating the granulation of sludge. Succession of microbial communities occurred during the domestication of functional bacteria present in the sludge and was accompanied with regulation of metabolic function. The addition of tetracycline lead to an increase of tetracycline-degrading bacteria or antibiotic resistance genus. Those findings provide new perspectives of the influence of tetracycline on aerobic sludge granulation and the removal mechanism of tetracycline.

Characteristics and outcome of nosocomial bloodstream infection in patients with acute-on-chronic liver failure.

AIM: Patients with acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) have a high risk of developing infections while hospitalized. Nosocomial bloodstream infection (BSI) is not uncommon, particular in patients who receive invasive operation, which may have negative impact on prognosis. In this study, we aim to investigate the characteristics and short-term outcome of nosocomial BSI in patients with ACLF. METHODS: Sixty-three patients with ACLF and nosocomial BSI from January 2014 to December 2015 were retrospectively studied. Clinical characteristics and distribution of bacteria at the time of BSI onset and short-term mortality were collected. RESULTS: The most common etiology of ACLF was hepatitis B virus infection. Eighty-one percent of ACLF patients had other types of infections at BSI onset. Gram-negative bacteria (77.8%) were the main pathogens, among which Escherichia coli was responsible for 46.9%. Staphylococcus epidermidis was the main Gram-positive bacteria. The most prevalent multidrug resistance (MDR) bacteria was extended-spectrum ß-lactamase (ESBL)-producing E. coli. The overall 28-day mortality rate was 42.9%. Multivariate analysis found that model for end-stage liver disease (MELD) score and number of organ failures were predictors of 28-day mortality. The area under the receiver operating characteristic of the numbers of organ failures to predict 28-day mortality was higher than MELD score (0.833 vs. 0.784, 0.4099), but without significant difference. CONCLUSION: Gram-negative bacteria were the most prevalent pathogens and ESBL-producing bacteria were responsible for most of the MDR bacteria in patients with ACLF and nosocomial BSI. Higher MELD score and multiorgan failure were associated with worse outcomes.

Effects of C/N ratio variation in swine biogas slurry on soil dissolved organic matter: Content and fluorescence characteristics.

Nutrient-rich biogas slurry shows favorable prospects for application as an organic fertilizer in farmland. At the same time, due to differing sources and treatment methods, the C/N ratio of biogas slurry varies greatly. The effect of differences in C/N of biogas slurry on soil organic matter properties remains unclear. In this experiment, pig farm biogas slurry differing in C/N (3, 6, 8.84 and 12) was applied instead of fertilizer. Fluorescence spectroscopy combined with parallel factor analysis and principal component analysis were used to determine dissolved organic carbon (DOC) and fluorescent dissolved organic matter (FDOM) in soil dissolved organic matter (DOM). The experimental results showed that the DOC and FDOM contents of soil could be significantly increased at the initial stage of biogas slurry application. Compared with CK, on the 60th day, biogas slurry with a C/N of 12 exhibited the greatest improvement in DOC, FDOM as well as for Component 1, Component 2 and Component 3 contents in soil FDOM, 40.93%, 66.25%, 65.35%, 40.47%, and 78.42% respectively. However, compared with the 0th day, by the 60th day, biogas slurry with a C/N of 8.84 exhibited the greatest decrease in Component 4 content in soil FDOM, 74.68%. Biogas slurry with a C/N of 8.84 exerted the greatest promotion effect on corn growth, the utilization and transformation of Component 4 by plants and microorganisms in the soil. And it showed the strongest improvement in the degree of FDOM humification in the soil, the humification index increased from 4.16 ± 0.17 to 4.92 ± 0.58, compared with CK. This study provided new insights for the utilization of biogas slurry with respect to soil physical and chemical properties and maize plant growth.

Physiological responses of Arthrobacter sp. JQ-1 cell interfaces to co-existed di-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) and copper.

Arthrobacter sp. JQ-1 can completely degrade 500 mg/L of DEHP within 3 days. The minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of Cu2+ could reach 1.56 mM, however, 5.0 mg/L Cu2+ apparently inhibited DEHP degradation and bacterial growth. Consequently, JQ-1 was exposed to the DEHP-copper environment to verify the toxicity mechanism based on the physiological responses of cellular multiple interfaces (cellular surface, membrane and intracellular characteristics). The results showed the combination of 500 mg/L DEHP and 5.0 mg/L Cu2+ significantly decreased cell surface hydrophobicity (CSH) and the absolute value of zeta potential, which implied the bioavailability of DEHP was decreased. The cellular surface changes were mainly due to the interaction between Cu2+ and some functional groups (CH2, CH3, aromatic rings, and amide). The weakened proton-motive force (PMF) across the plasma membrane may interfere the formation and utilization of energy, which is not conducive to the repair process of cellular damages. In this study, Non-invasive micro-test technology (NMT) was applied to the research of combined toxicity of DEHP and heavy metal ions for the first time. DEHP-copper intensified K+ efflux and Ca2+ influx across the plasma membrane, which disturbed ion homeostasis of K+ and Ca2+ and might induce apoptosis and further inhibit DEHP degradation. The decline of intracellular esterase activity indicated that the metabolic capacity is apparently restrained. This study enhances our understanding of cellular different interface processes responding to combined pollutants.

ZnCl2 modified biochar derived from aerobic granular sludge for developed microporosity and enhanced adsorption to tetracycline.

In this study, biochar derived from aerobic granular sludge was modified by ZnCl2 (Zn-BC) to improve the adsorption performance of tetracycline (TC). The surface area, pores, and functional groups of Zn-BC were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) surface area, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction (XRD) and the effects of initial pH, TC concentration, and temperature on TC adsorption performance were analyzed. At the same time, the adsorption kinetics, isotherms, thermodynamics and diffusion models were studied. The results showed that the BET surface area and micropore volume of Zn-BC were 852.41 m2·g-1 and 0.086 cm3·g-1, respectively. The maximum adsorption performance of TC was 93.44 mg·g-1, and it was less influenced by pH. The adsorption of TC on Zn-BC agreed well with the pseudo-second-order model and the Langmuir isotherm. The thermodynamic parameters indicated that the adsorption process was a spontaneously endothermic reaction.

Metabolic process of di-n-butyl phthalate (DBP) by Enterobacter sp. DNB-S2, isolated from Mollisol region in China.

The accumulation of phthalate acid esters (PAEs) in the environment has aroused a global concern. Microbial degradation is the most promising method for removing PAEs from polluted environment. Di-n-butyl phthalate (DBP) is one of the most widely used PAEs. In this study, a highly efficient DBP-degrading strain, Enterobacter sp. DNB-S2 was isolated from Mollisol in northeast China, and the degradation rate of 500 mg L-1 DBP reached 44.10% at 5 °C and 91.08% at 50 °C within 7 days. A new intermediate, n-butyl benzoate BP, was detected, implying a new degradation pathway. The complete genome of the strain DNB-S2 was successfully sequenced to comprehensively understand of the entire DBP catabolic process. Key genes were proposed to be involved in DBP degradation, such as esterases, 3,4-dihydroxybenzoate decarboxylase and catechol 2,3-dioxygenase genes. Intermediate-utilization tests and real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) validated the proposed DBP catabolic pathway. The aboriginal bacterium DNB-S2 is a promising germplasm for restoring PAE-contaminated Mollisol regions at low temperature. This study provides novel insight into the catabolic mechanisms and abundant gene resources of PAE biodegradation.

Effect of swine biogas slurry application on soil dissolved organic matter (DOM) content and fluorescence characteristics.

The application of biogas slurry as an organic fertilizer is a promising method for utilizing breeding manure wastewater. At present, the impact of biogas slurry on the properties of organic matter in soil is not clear. In this study, a pot experiment in which chemical fertilizers were replaced with biogas slurry from a swine farm was performed. The fluorescence spectra combined with parallel factor (PARAFAC) analysis and principal component analysis (PCA) were used to explore the influence of biogas slurry on the protein and humic substance contents in the dissolved organic matter (DOM) in soil. The results showed that there were two proteins (component 3 (C3) and component 4 (C4)) and two humic substances ( component 1 (C1) and component 2 (C2)) in the DOM of the experimental soil. The application of swine biogas slurry can significantly increase the content of DOM in soil, but the increase was weakened with extended time. Compared with the CKA, the biogas slurry significantly increased the C1, C2, C3 and C4 contents in the initial stage by 116.17%, 76.41%, 578.71% and 278.13%, respectively. Within 28 days of planting corn, proteins with simple molecular structure in the DOM in the soil began to be transformed into humic substances with high molecular weight and more complex molecular structures. On the 60th day, the contents of C1 and C2 in the DOM of the treated treatments soil increased by 13.72%-34.40% and 5.05%-17.78% respectively, and tyrosine content decreased by 90.11%-94.41%. This study provides a new perspective on the effects of biogas slurry application on soil properties and sustainable utilization of soil.

Enhanced nitrogen removal in an aerobic granular sequencing batch reactor under low DO concentration: Role of extracellular polymeric substances and microbial community structure.

In this study, the role of extracellular polymeric substances (EPSs) in nitrogen removal and the microbial community structure of aerobic granular sludge (AGS) were analyzed under different dissolved oxygen (DO) conditions (6-7, 4-5, and 2-3 mg·L-1). The EPSs transported and retained nitrogen in the denitrification process, and the total inorganic nitrogen (TIN) in the EPSs decreased from 6.09 to 5.54 mg·g-1 MLSS when the DO concentration decreased from 6-7 to 2-3 mg·L-1. The microbial community showed different core denitrifying bacterial populations involved in nitrogen removal in the AGS system under different DO conditions, with more species when they were higher relative abundances of denitrifying bacteria participating in the nitrogen removal process in AGS under low DO conditions, including Hydrogenophilaceae, Thauera, Enterobacter, Xanthomonadaceae_unclassified, Comalmonadaceae_unclassified, Nitrosomonas and Paracoccus. This study provides a more comprehensive understanding of the DO effect on the TIN removal mechanism by AGS.

The drivers of bacterial community underlying biogeographical pattern in Mollisol area of China.

In order to better understand the composition and driving factors of the bacterial community in Mollisols, we selected 9 representative facility agricultural lands in Mollisol area of China for sampling, and described it on a larger spatial scale. Soil bacterial community structure in these 9 regions (determined by high-throughput sequencing analysis) showed significant differences at the genus level. The correlation between bacterial community composition and soil properties, contaminants and geographical latitude showed that the diversity of bacterial community was still strongly correlated with pH and SOM under the influence of phthalates (P < 0.05). Principal component Analysis (PCA) showed that soil properties (i.e. pH, organic matter, stacking density, the content of nitrogen, potassium, phosphorus) and PAEs level rather than geographic latitude were main drivers of differences in bacterial community structure. These factors account for 73.04% of the total variation of the bacterial community. Among them, PAEs act as a typical pollutant is the main factor driving the composition of bacterial community in facility agriculture Mollisols. This shows that PAEs is a potential pollution risk factor, which has important guiding significance for the sustainable and healthy development of agriculture in Mollisol area.
