ABSTRACT
The biodegradation of antibiotics in aquatic environment is consistently impeded by the widespread presence of heavy metals, necessitating urgent measures to mitigate or eliminate this environmental stress. This work investigated the degradation of sulfamethoxazole (SMX) by the white-rot fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium (WRF) under heavy metal cadmium ion (Cd2+) stress, with a focus on the protective effects of reduced graphene oxide (RGO). The pseudo-first-order rate constant and removal efficiency of 5 mg/L SMX in 48 h by WRF decrease from 0.208 h-1 and 55.6% to 0.08 h-1 and 28.6% at 16 mg/L of Cd2+, while these values recover to 0.297 h-1 and 72.8% by supplementing RGO. The results demonstrate that RGO, possessing excellent biocompatibility, effectively safeguard the mycelial structure of WRF against Cd2+ stress and provide protection against oxidative damage to WRF. Simultaneously, the production of manganese peroxidase (MnP) by WRF decreases to 38.285 U/L in the presence of 24 mg/L Cd2+, whereas it recovers to 328.51 U/L upon the supplement of RGO. RGO can induce oxidative stress in WRF, thereby stimulating the secretion of laccase (Lac) and MnP to enhance the SMX degradation. The mechanism discovered in this study provides a new strategy to mitigate heavy metal stress encountered by WRF during antibiotic degradation.
