ABSTRACT
Biodegradation of triphenyl phosphate (TPHP) by Sphingopyxis sp. GY was investigated, and results demonstrated that TPHP could be completely degraded in 36â¯h with intracellular enzymes playing a leading role. This study, for the first time, systematically explores the effects of the typical brominated flame retardants, organophosphorus flame retardants, and heavy metals on TPHP degradation. Our findings reveal that TCPs, BDE-47, HBCD, Cd and Cu exhibit inhibitory effects on TPHP degradation. The hydrolysis-, hydroxylated-, monoglucosylated-, methylated products and glutathione (GSH) conjugated derivative were identified and new degradation pathway of TPHP mediated by microorganism was proposed. Moreover, toxicity evaluation experiments indicate a significant reduction in toxicity following treatment with Sphingopyxis sp. GY. To evaluate its potential for environmental remediation, we conducted bioaugmentation experiments using Sphingopyxis sp. GY in a TPHP contaminated water-sediment system, which resulted in excellent remediation efficacy. Twelve intermediate products were detected in the water-sediment system, including the observation of the glutathione (GSH) conjugated derivative, monoglucosylated product, (OH)2-DPHP and CH3-O-DPHP for the first time in microorganism-mediated TPHP transformation. We further identify the active microbial members involved in TPHP degradation within the water-sediment system using metagenomic analysis. Notably, most of these members were found to possess genes related to TPHP degradation. These findings highlight the significant reduction of TPHP achieved through beneficial interactions and cooperation established between the introduced Sphingopyxis sp. GY and the indigenous microbial populations stimulated by the introduced bacteria. Thus, our study provides valuable insights into the mechanisms, co-existed pollutants, transformation pathways, and remediation potential associated with TPHP biodegradation, paving the way for future research and applications in environmental remediation strategies.
