Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 266:130986. [PMID: 38508564 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.130986] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/13/2024] [Revised: 03/13/2024] [Accepted: 03/16/2024] [Indexed: 03/22/2024]
Abstract
Laccases play a crucial role in neutralizing environmental pollutants, including antibiotics and phenolic compounds, by converting them into less harmful substances via a unique oxidation process. This study introduces an environmentally sustainable remediation technique, utilizing NiO nanoparticles (NPs) synthesized through green chemistry to immobilize a metagenome-derived laccase, PersiLac1, enhancing its application in pollutant detoxification. Salvadora persica leaf extract was used for the synthesis of NiO nanoparticles, utilizing its phytochemical constituents as reducing and capping agents, followed by characterization through different analyses. Characterization of NiO nanoparticles revealed distinctive FTIR absorption peaks indicating the nanoparticulate structure, while FESEM showed structured NiO with robust interconnections and dimensionality of about 50nm, confirmed by EDX analysis to have a consistent distribution of Ni and O. The immobilized PersiLac1 demonstrated enhanced thermal stability, with 85.55 % activity at 80 °C and reduced enzyme leaching, retaining 67.93 % activity across 15 biocatalytic cycles. It efficiently reduced rice straw (RS) phenol by 67.97 % within 210 min and degraded 70-78 % of tetracycline (TC) across a wide pH range (4.0-8.0), showing superior performance over the free enzyme. Immobilized laccase achieved up to 71 % TC removal at 40-80 °C, significantly outperforming the free enzyme. Notably, 54 % efficiency was achieved at 500 mg/L TC by immobilized laccase at 120 min. This research showed the potential of green-synthesized NiO nanoparticles to effectively immobilize laccase, presenting an eco-friendly approach to purify pollutants such as phenols and antibiotics. The durability and reusability of the immobilized enzyme, coupled with its ability to reduce pollutants, indicates a viable method for cleaning the environment. Nonetheless, the production costs and scalability of NiO nanoparticles for widespread industrial applications pose significant challenges. Future studies should focus on implementation at an industrial level and examine a wider range of pollutants to fully leverage the environmental clean-up capabilities of this innovative technology.

Abstract
Endocrine disruptors (EDCs) such as bisphenol A (BPA) have many adverse effects on environment and human health. Laccase encapsulation immobilized in mesoporous ZIF-8 was prepared for efficient degradation of BPA. The ZIF-8 (PA) with highly ordered mesopores was synthesized using trimethylacetic acid (PA) as a template agent. On account of the improvement of skeletal stability by cross-linking agent glutaraldehyde, ZIF-8 (PA) realized laccase (FL) immobilization within the mesopores through encapsulation strategy. By replacing the template agent, the effect of pore size on the composite activity and immobilization efficiency by SEM characterization and kinetic analysis were investigated. Based on the physical protection of ZIF-8(PA) on laccase, as well as electrostatic interactions between substances and changes in surface functional groups (e.g. -OH, etc.), multifaceted enhancement including activity, stability, storability were engendered. FL@ZIF-8(PA) could maintain high activity in complex systems at pH 3-11, 10-70 °C or in organic solvent containing system, which exhibited an obvious improvement compared to free laccase and other reported immobilized laccase. Combined with TGA, FT-IR and Zeta potential analysis, the intrinsic mechanism was elaborated in detail. On this basis, FL@ZIF-8(PA) achieved efficient removal of BPA even under adverse conditions (removal rates all above 55% and up to 90.28%), and was suitable for a wide range of initial BPA concentrations. Combined with the DFT calculations on the adsorption energy and differential charge, the mesoporous could not only improve the enrichment performance of BPA on ZIFs, but also enhance the interaction stability. Finally, FL@ZIF-8(PA) was successfully applied to the degradation of BPA in coal industry wastewater. This work provides a new and ultra-high performances material for the organic pollution treatment in wastewater.

Abstract
In this study, polyethyleneimine was combined with magnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles through the bridging of carboxyl-functionalized ionic liquid, and laccase was loaded onto the carrier by Cu2+ chelation to achieve laccase immobilization (MCIL-PEI-Cu-lac). The carrier was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscope, thermogravimetric analysis, X-ray diffraction analysis, magnetic hysteresis loop and so on. MCIL-PEI-Cu-lac has good immobilization ability; its loading and activity retention could reach 52.19 mg/g and 91.65%, respectively. Compared with free laccase, its thermal stability and storage stability have been significantly improved, as well. After 6 h of storage at 60 °C, 51.45% of the laccase activity could still be retained, and 81.13% of the laccase activity remained after 1 month of storage at 3 °C. In the pollutants removal test, the removal rate of 2,4-dichlorophenol (10 mg/L) by MCIL-PEI-Cu-lac could reach 100% within 10 h, and the removal efficiency could still be maintained 60.21% after repeated use for 8 times. In addition, MCIL-PEI-Cu-lac also has a good removal effect on other phenolic pollutants (such as bisphenol A, phenol, 4-chlorophenol, etc.). Research results indicated that an efficient strategy for laccase immobilization to biodegrade phenolic pollutants was developed.

Abstract
In this study, an amino-functionalized magnetic silica microsphere material (Fe3O4-SiO2-NH2) was prepared. Using glutaraldehyde as a cross-linking agent, Trametes versicolor laccase was adsorbed-covalently bonded and immobilized on the material to prepare Laccase @ Fe3O4-SiO2. In addition, the materials were characterized and analysed by SEM, TEM, XRD, FT-IR and VSM. Finally, the thermal inactivation dynamics of immobilized laccase in polar/non-polar/toxic systems and the adsorption and degradation of 2,4-DCP were studied. The results showed that Laccase @ Fe3O4-SiO2 under the optimal conditions (pH 6, temperature 65°C, initial concentration of 2,4-DCP 10 mg/L), the removal rate was as high as 81.6%. Moreover, compared with free laccase, immobilized laccase had good tolerance under low pH and high-temperature conditions, and storage stability was also greatly improved. After repeated use for 7 times, Laccase @ Fe3O4-SiO2 can still maintain 59% removal rate of 2,4-DCP, which gives it the potential for industrial applications.

Abstract
Laccase is a promising biocatalyst for pollutant degradation and water purification. However, laccase can only improve the stability of enzyme activity and achieve its significant catalytic effect after effective immobilization. Herein, we report a general strategy to integrate nanocellulose aerogel and laccase for high-efficiency degradation of organic pollutants. Biomass-derived functional bacterial cellulose (BC) aerogel with a nanonetwork structure and high porosity was prepared by biosynthesis, solvent replacement, and atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) procedures. Subsequently, a biocatalyst platform was fabricated by "coupling" ATRP-modified BC aerogel with abundant active sites with laccase through ion coordination. The results demonstrated the biocatalyst platform not only has good biological affinity, but also has high enzyme load and structural stability. Meanwhile, the degradation rates of reactive red X-3B and 2, 4-dichlorophenol reached 94.5% and 85.2% within 4 h, respectively. The strategy disclosed herein could provide a practical method for the degradation of organic pollutants.

Abstract
The alarming presence of hazardous halo-organic pollutants in wastewater and soils generated by industrial growth, pharmaceutical and agricultural activities is a major environmental concern that has drawn the attention of scientists. Unfortunately, the application of conventional technologies within hazardous materials remediation processes has radically failed due to their high cost and ineffectiveness. Consequently, the design of innovative and sustainable techniques to remove halo-organic contaminants from wastewater and soils is crucial. Altogether, these aspects have led to the search for safe and efficient alternatives for the treatment of contaminated matrices. In fact, over the last decades, the efficacy of immobilized oxidoreductases has been explored to achieve the removal of halo-organic pollutants from diverse tainted media. Several reports have indicated that these enzymatic constructs possess unique properties, such as high removal rates, improved stability, and excellent reusability, making them promising candidates for green remediation processes. Hence, in this current review, we present an insight of green remediation approaches based on the use of immobilized constructs of phenoloxidases (e.g., laccase and tyrosinase) and peroxidases (e.g., horseradish peroxidase, chloroperoxidase, and manganese peroxidase) for sustainable decontamination of wastewater and soil matrices from halo-organic pollutants, including 2,4-dichlorophenol, 4-chlorophenol, diclofenac, 2-chlorophenol, 2,4,6-trichlorophenol, among others.

Abstract
Environmental problems resultant from organic pollutants are a major current challenge for modern societies. White rot fungi (WRF) are well known for their extensive organic compound degradation abilities. The unique oxidative and extracellular ligninolytic systems of WRF that exhibit low substrate specificity, enable them to display a considerable ability to transform or degrade different environmental contaminants. In recent decades, WRF and their ligninolytic enzymes have been widely applied in the removal of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), pharmaceutically active compounds (PhACs), endocrine disruptor compounds (EDCs), pesticides, synthetic dyes, and other environmental pollutants, wherein promising results have been achieved. This review focuses on advances in WRF-based bioremediation of organic pollutants over the last 10 years. We comprehensively document the application of WRF and their lignocellulolytic enzymes for removing organic pollutants. Moreover, potential problems and intriguing observations that are worthy of additional research attention are highlighted. Lastly, we discuss trends in WRF-remediation system development and avenues that should be considered to advance research in the field.

Abstract
Laccases have enormous potential as promising 'green' biocatalysts in environmental applications including wastewater treatment and polluted soil bioremediation. The catalytic oxidation reaction they perform uses only molecular oxygen without other cofactors, and the only product after the reaction is water. The immobilization of laccase offers several improvements such as protected activity and enhanced stability over free laccase.

JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2021; 401:123353. [PMID: 32652421 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2020.123353] [Citation(s) in RCA: 69] [Impact Index Per Article: 23.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/26/2020] [Revised: 06/16/2020] [Accepted: 06/28/2020] [Indexed: 05/23/2023]
Abstract
This work aims to achieve the co-immobilization of laccase and 2,2-binamine-di-3-ethylbenzothiazolin-6-sulfonic acid (ABTS) to improve removal capability of the biocatalyst for pollutants while avoiding potential pollution caused by ABTS. The laccase was immobilized on magnetic chitosan nanoparticles modified with amino-functionalized ionic liquid containing ABTS (MACS-NIL) based on Cu ion chelation (MACS-NIL-Cu-lac). The carrier was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, x-ray diffraction and etc., and electron paramagnetic resonance confirmed the mediator molecule ABTS on the carrier could also play the role of electron transmission. MACS-NIL-Cu-lac presented relatively high immobilization capacity, enhanced activity (1.7-fold that of free laccase), improved pH and temperature adaptability, and increased thermal and storage stability. The removal performance assay found that MACS-NIL-Cu-lac had a good removal efficiency with 100.0 % for 2,4-dichlorophenol in water at 25 °C, even when the concentration reached 50 mg/L. Reusability study showed that after six catalytic runs, the removal efficiency of 2,4-dichlorophenol by MACS-NIL-Cu-lac could still reach 93.2 %. Additionally, MACS-NIL-Cu-lac exhibited higher catalytic efficiencies with 100.0 %, 70.5 % and 93.3 % for bisphenol A, indole, and anthracene, respectively. The high catalytic performance in pure water system obtained by the novel biocatalyst co-immobilizing laccase and electron mediator ABTS showed greater practical application value.

Zhang J, Ge Y, Li Z, Wang Y. Facile fabrication of a low-cost and environmentally friendly inorganic-organic composite membrane for aquatic dye removal. JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT 2020; 256:109969.

Abstract
This study reports a new inorganic-organic composite membrane fabricated by an electrostatic self-assembling method. The low-cost and eco-friendly porous geopolymer (PG) was chosen as a support, on which chitosan (CS), a "green" biomaterial, was used to form an active layer. With optimum dosage of CS (2.0 mL of 1.0% CS solution), the obtained CS/PG membrane exhibited a high porosity of 50.97% with an average pore diameter of 13.93 nm as well as a high water flux of 1663.82 ± 22.46 L/m2·h·bar. The effects of initial concentration, pH, flow rate and temperature of the feed solution on crystal violet (CV) removal by the CS/PG were evaluated in a continuous mode. The results indicated ~95% CV could be removed from water during continuous treating of 14 h. The effectiveness in CV removal by the CS/PG membrane was attributed to the synergistic effect of rejection and adsorption. Furthermore, the composite membrane could be easily regenerated for prolonged use. Overall, this work opens a new possibility of building cost-saving and eco-friendly composite membranes for practical applications in water purification.

ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION (BARKING, ESSEX : 1987) 2020; 257:113579. [PMID: 31810716 DOI: 10.1016/j.envpol.2019.113579] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/12/2019] [Revised: 10/10/2019] [Accepted: 11/04/2019] [Indexed: 06/10/2023]
Abstract
In this study, a multidisciplinary approach investigated the enzymatic degradation of micropollutants in real, not modified, municipal wastewaters of a plant located in Italy. Stir Bar Sorptive Extraction combined to Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometric detection (SBSE-GC-MS) was applied to profile targeted pollutants in wastewaters collected after the primary sedimentation (W1) and the final effluent (W2). Fifteen compounds were detected at ng/L - μg/L, including pesticides, personal care products (PCPs) and drugs. The most abundant micropollutants were bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate, diethyl phthalate and ketoprofen. Laccases of Trametes pubescens MUT 2400 were very active against all the target micropollutants: except few cases, their concentration was reduced more than 60%. Chemical analysis and environmental risk do not always come together. To verify whether the treated wastewaters can represent a stressor for the aquatic ecosystem, toxicity was also evaluated. Raphidocelis subcapitata and Lepidium sativum tests showed a clear ecotoxicity reduction, even though they did not evenly respond. Two in vitro tests (E-screen test and MELN assay) were used to evaluate the estrogenic activity. Treatments already operating in the plant (e.g. activated sludge) partially reduced the estradiol equivalent concentration, and it was almost negligible after the laccases treatment. The results of this study suggest that laccases of T. pubescens are promising biocatalysts for the micropollutants transformation in wastewaters and surface waters.

Abstract
Chitosan/Co-Fe-layered double hydroxides (CS/LDHs) were prepared by coprecipitation method, which is a kind of composite material with excellent properties. The structure of CS/LDHs was characterized by SEM, FTIR, and XRD, which proved that chitosan (CS) was successfully induced into hydrotalcite and CS/LDHs still possess the structural characteristics of hydrotalcite. The adsorption of 2,4-dichlorophenol (2,4-DCP) was studied with CS/LDHs and LDHs as adsorbent separately. The activity of immobilized laccase (L-CS/LDHs) with CS/LDHs as carrier is significantly better than that of the one (L-LDHs) using LDHs as carrier. Under the optimum conditions (pH = 6, 55 °C, 48 h), L-CS/LDHs exhibited better removal performance for 2,4-DCP (81.53%, 100 mg/L) than LDHs (63.55%); the removal of 2,4-DCP by L-CS/LDHs is excellent, exceeding 97% as its initial concentration below 60 mg/L. It includes the catalytic action of laccase and dechlorination of Fe3+ and Co2+, and the adsorption can be ignored under the optimal conditions. After 5 cycles, it maintained 67% (L-CS/LDHs) and 54% (L-LDHs) of the original removal.

Abstract
In this work, laccase from Trametes versicolor pretreated with copper ion solution was entrapped in copper alginate beads. The presence of laccase in copper alginate beads was verified by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. The alginate concentration used was optimized based on the specific activity and immobilization yield. After entrapment, laccase presents perfect pH stability and thermal stability with 2,2′-azinobis-(3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulphonate) (ABTS) as the substrate. Moreover, laccase in copper alginate beads exhibits good reusability during continuous batch operation for removing 2,4-dichlorophenol. More importantly, owing to the coupled effect of copper ion activation and copper alginate entrapment, the entrapped laccase shows a 3.0-fold and a 2.4-fold increase in specific activity and 2,4-DCP degradation rate compared with that of free laccase, respectively.
