Abstract
Antibiotics have been widely detected in aquatic environments, and fungal biotransformation receives considerable attention for antibiotic bioremediation. Here, a fungus designated Cladosporium cladosporioides 11 (CC11) with effective capacity to biotransform fluoroquinolones was isolated from aquaculture pond sediments. Enrofloxacin (ENR), ciprofloxacin (CIP) and ofloxacin (OFL) were considerably abated by CC11, and the antibacterial activities of the fluoroquinolones reduced significantly after CC11 treatment. Transcriptome analysis showed the removal of ENR, CIP and OFL by CC11 is a process of enzymatic degradation and biosorption which consists well with ligninolytic enzyme activities and sorption experiments under the same conditions. Additionally, CC11 significantly removed ENR in zebrafish culture water and reduced the residue of ENR in zebrafish. All these results evidenced the potential of CC11 as a novel environmentally friendly process for the removal of fluoroquinolones from aqueous systems and reduce fluoroquinolone residues in aquatic organisms.
