The presence and accumulation of multiple pesticide residues in soil threaten biodiversity and soil health, yet depth-resolved evidence on pesticide-metabolite mixtures in subtropical agroecosystems remains underexplored. Here, we present the most comprehensive paired-depth assessment of parent pesticides and metabolites in Indian soils to date. We analyzed 181 compounds (63 insecticides, 41 fungicides, 32 herbicides, 45 metabolites) in 140 paired surface (0-5 cm) and subsurface (15-20 cm) soil samples collected during the 2024 growing season from 70 sites representing major land uses in the Hindon River Basin. Seventy-two residues were detected across samples, and almost all (98.6%) surface soils were contaminated, including organically managed and forest reference sites. Pesticide-metabolite mixtures were ubiquitous in agricultural soils, with up to 24 co-occurring compounds per site. Insecticides and metabolites dominated detections, with clothianidin, chlorantraniliprole, and fipronil sulfone present in >80% of samples. Metabolites of fipronil, neonicotinoids, atrazine, and DDT were frequently detected and often exceeded their parent levels, suggesting persistent and potentially underestimated soil health risks. Subsurface residues were detected at 93% of sites, demonstrating widespread shallow vertical redistribution. Multivariate analyses showed that shallow vertical redistribution was governed primarily by chemical persistence and mobility, amplified by land-use intensity, whereas soil properties played a secondary role. Theoretical risk-quotient-based assessment revealed high risk for earthworms at 80% of sites, particularly in sugarcane and orchard systems. Our findings uncover widespread contamination in subtropical regions, add information on vertically distributed pesticide cocktails, expose limitations of topsoil-only monitoring, and call for mixture-aware, metabolite-inclusive, depth-resolved regulation to protect soil health.
多种农药残留在土壤中的存在和积累威胁着生物多样性和土壤健康,但亚热带农业生态系统中农药代谢物混合物的深入证据仍未得到充分探索。在这里,我们提出了迄今为止印度土壤中最全面的亲本农药和代谢物的成对深度评估。研究人员分析了Hindon河流域70个主要土地利用地点在2024年生长季收集的140对表层(0-5 cm)和地下(15-20 cm)土壤样品中的181种化合物(63种杀虫剂、41种杀菌剂、32种除草剂和45种代谢物)。样品中检测到72种残留物,几乎所有(98.6%)表层土壤都受到污染,包括有机管理和森林参考点。农药代谢物混合物在农业土壤中普遍存在,每个位点共出现多达24种化合物。杀虫剂和代谢物在检测中占主导地位,80%的样品中存在噻虫胺、氯虫腈和氟虫腈砜。氟虫腈、新烟碱类、阿特拉津和滴滴涕的代谢物经常被检测到,而且往往超过母体水平,表明土壤健康风险持续存在,而且可能被低估。在93%的地点检测到地下残留物,表明广泛的浅层垂直分布。多变量分析表明,浅层垂直再分布主要受化学物质持久性和流动性的支配,并受土地利用强度的放大,土壤性质起次要作用。基于理论风险商的评估显示,蚯蚓在80%的地点存在高风险,特别是在甘蔗和果园系统。我们的研究结果揭示了亚热带地区普遍存在的污染,增加了垂直分布的农药混合物的信息,暴露了仅对表层土壤进行监测的局限性,并呼吁对混合物进行感知,包括代谢物,深度解决调节以保护土壤健康。

Integrating water washing with alkali activation is a promising strategy for the safe reutilization of municipal solid waste incineration fly ash (MSWIFA); however, the environmental and ecological safety levels of the resulting materials remain poorly understood. In this study, high-performance alkali-activated materials (WFA-AAMs) were synthesized from water-washed MSWIFA (WFA), coal fly ash, silica fume, and sodium silicate, achieving a 28-day compressive strength of 32.17 MPa through the optimization of the C-(A)-S-H/N-A-S-H gel network. Their environmental safety levels were systematically evaluated using short-term, long-term static, and semi-dynamic leaching tests combined with ecological risk assessments and ecotoxicity bioassays across four trophic levels. The results revealed that compared with WFA, WFA-AAMs reduced Pb and Zn leaching by more than 99%, with acute hazard quotients (HQs) consistently being less than 1. Ecotoxicity tests on bacteria, algae, crustaceans, and fish confirmed negligible toxicity from WFA-AAM leachates, whereas WFA leachates caused substantial adverse effects. Principal component analysis revealed Pb as the dominant toxicity driver, with Cl⁻ exerting synergistic effects. Through this study, the first comprehensive chemical–ecological–toxicological framework for evaluating the safety of WFA-AAMs was established, providing scientific guidance for their sustainable application.
水洗与碱活化相结合是城市生活垃圾焚烧飞灰安全回用的有效途径。然而,所产生的材料的环境和生态安全水平仍然知之甚少。本研究以水洗MSWIFA (WFA)、粉煤灰、硅灰、水玻璃为原料,通过优化C-(a)- s - h /N-A-S-H凝胶网络,合成了高性能碱活性材料(WFA- aams),其28天抗压强度达到32.17 MPa。采用短期、长期静态和半动态浸出试验,结合生态风险评估和四个营养水平的生态毒性生物测定,系统地评估了它们的环境安全水平。结果表明,与WFA相比,WFA- aams对Pb、Zn浸出的抑制作用大于99%,且急性危害系数(HQs)始终小于1。对细菌、藻类、甲壳类动物和鱼类的生态毒性试验证实,WFA- aam渗滤液的毒性可以忽略不计,而WFA渗滤液则会产生严重的不良影响。主成分分析显示,铅是主要的毒理因素,而氯则有协同作用。通过本研究,建立了首个综合评价WFA-AAMs安全性的化学-生态-毒理学框架,为其可持续应用提供了科学指导。

Synthetic plastics, particularly polyethylene, are persistent environmental contaminants due to their chemical inertness and resistance to natural degradation. Among them, high-density polyethylene (HDPE) presents a critical challenge because its highly crystalline and hydrophobic structure severely limits microbial colonization and carbon utilization. Most reported HDPE biodegradation studies rely on physicochemically pretreated materials, leaving microbial mineralization of untreated, virgin HDPE largely unexplored. In this study, adaptive laboratory evolution (ALE) was employed to isolate microorganisms capable of degrading untreated HDPE under environmentally relevant selective pressures. Activated sludge and municipal landfill samples, wherein plastics and diverse microbial communities coexist for extended periods, were used as inoculum sources. Long-term ALE was conducted in a mineral salt medium that contains virgin HDPE as the sole carbon source, imposing a stringent directional selective pressure. Through this approach, Pandoraea sp. B8 was isolated and showed reproducible surface deterioration of HDPE films together with sustained growth. Importantly, HDPE degradation was accompanied by measurable carbon dioxide evolution, indicating biological mineralization rather than surface modification alone. Overall, these results suggest that evolutionary adaptation can enable microbial access to untreated HDPE and influence the environmental persistence and transformation of this polymer under environmentally plausible conditions without physicochemical pretreatment.
合成塑料,特别是聚乙烯,由于其化学惰性和耐自然降解,是持久的环境污染物。其中,高密度聚乙烯(HDPE)由于其高度结晶和疏水结构严重限制了微生物的定植和碳的利用,因此面临着严峻的挑战。大多数报道的HDPE生物降解研究都依赖于物理化学预处理的材料,这使得未经处理的HDPE的微生物矿化在很大程度上没有被探索。在这项研究中,适应性实验室进化(ALE)被用于分离能够在环境相关的选择压力下降解未经处理的HDPE的微生物。活性污泥和城市垃圾填埋场样品,其中塑料和不同的微生物群落共存较长时间,被用作接种源。长期ALE在含纯HDPE作为唯一碳源的矿物盐介质中进行,施加严格的定向选择压力。通过这种方法分离出了Pandoraea sp. B8,并显示出HDPE薄膜可重复的表面退化和持续生长。重要的是,HDPE降解伴随着可测量的二氧化碳演化,表明生物矿化而不仅仅是表面修饰。总的来说,这些结果表明,进化适应可以使微生物获得未经处理的HDPE,并在环境合理的条件下影响这种聚合物的环境持久性和转化,而无需物理化学预处理。

Advancements in toxicology have clarified toxic effects across biological levels; however, the mechanisms driving chemical-mixture toxicity remain unclear. In addition, the concentration addition (CA) model commonly used in mixture risk assessment may introduce predictive bias by neglecting chemical interactions, yet the implications of such bias remain poorly understood. Using zebrafish as a model organism, we systematically assessed triclocarban (TCC) and bisphenol S (BPS) mixtures. The results showed that mixtures prepared at concentrations predicted by the CA model caused synergistic toxicity across multiple biological levels. Transcriptomics showed TCC and BPS shared limited similarity, differing mainly in functional attributes rather than differentially expressed gene numbers. Mixture exposure amplified transcriptional responses and introduced new biological processes, revealing molecular mechanisms driving synergism. Notably, metabolism, MAPK, calcium, Apelin, and FoxO pathways were significantly enriched, collectively promoting oxidative stress and apoptosis. These processes further synergistically mediated multi-system toxicity through interconnected pathways, manifested as cardiovascular abnormalities (elevated heart rate, pericardial edema, caudal vein constriction), immune dysregulation (proliferation of innate immune cells with cytokine alterations), and neurotoxicity (impaired neuronal development, dopamine depletion, and elevated GABA). These synergistic effects further induced malformations in organs such as the swim bladders and yolk sac, disrupted normal physiological activities, and ultimately impaired embryonic development, leading to increased mortality. By contrast, applying the combination index (CI) as a correction factor shifted the combined effects predominantly toward additivity or antagonism. Overall, this study provides mechanistic insights into TCC-BPS interactions. Predictions based on the addition model may overlook chemical interactions, causing toxicological biases, while CI provides a validated correction across biological levels, highlighting its utility in mixture risk assessment.
毒理学的进步已经阐明了跨生物水平的毒性作用;然而,驱动化学混合物毒性的机制仍不清楚。此外,通常用于混合物风险评估的浓度添加(CA)模型可能会由于忽略化学相互作用而引入预测偏差,但这种偏差的含义仍然知之甚少。以斑马鱼为模型生物,我们系统地评估了三氯卡班(TCC)和双酚S (BPS)的混合物。结果表明,在CA模型预测的浓度下制备的混合物在多个生物水平上产生协同毒性。转录组学显示TCC和BPS具有有限的相似性,主要是功能属性而不是差异表达的基因数量。混合暴露放大了转录反应并引入了新的生物学过程,揭示了驱动协同作用的分子机制。值得注意的是,代谢、MAPK、钙、Apelin和FoxO通路显著富集,共同促进氧化应激和细胞凋亡。这些过程通过相互关联的途径进一步协同介导多系统毒性,表现为心血管异常(心率升高、心包水肿、尾静脉收缩)、免疫失调(细胞因子改变的先天免疫细胞增殖)和神经毒性(神经元发育受损、多巴胺耗竭和GABA升高)。这些协同效应进一步诱发了鱼鳔和卵黄囊等器官的畸形,扰乱了正常的生理活动,最终损害了胚胎发育,导致死亡率增加。相比之下,使用组合指数(CI)作为校正因子,将组合效应主要转向可加性或拮抗性。总的来说,这项研究提供了TCC-BPS相互作用的机制见解。基于添加模型的预测可能会忽略化学相互作用,导致毒理学偏差,而CI提供了跨生物水平的有效校正,突出了其在混合物风险评估中的实用性。

Liquid crystal monomers (LCMs) have been recognized as contaminants of emerging concerns. However, little is known about their occurrence and partitioning behavior in aquatic system. Water and sediment samples were collected in urbanized river systems within the Pearl River Delta (PRD), South China to investigate the spatial distribution and partitioning behavior of LCMs. The concentrations of Σ44LCM in water ranged from 9.5 to 58 ng/L, with an average of 23 ng/L, whereas those of Σ44LCM in sediments ranged from 9.7 to 120 ng/g dry weight (dw), with an average of 55 ng/g dw. Notably, the sedimentary concentrations of LCMs in the present study are the highest reported to date. Fluorinated biphenyls and their analogs (FBAs) dominated in suspended particulate matter (SPM) and sediments, whereas biphenyls and their analogs (BAs) were more abundant in filtrate. The predominant compound in all matrixes is 1-ethyl-4-[2-(4-methylphenyl) ethynyl] benzene. This study reports for the first time the measured organic carbon-normalized partition coefficients (logKOC) for five LCMs. The partitioning coefficients (logKd) are significantly positively correlated with the organic carbon content (P < 0.05), indicating that organic carbon is the primary factor influencing the partitioning behavior of LCMs. These findings provide a deeper understanding of the distribution and partitioning behavior of LCMs in aquatic environments, facilitating the understanding of their environmental behavior and ecological risks in aquatic environments.
液晶单体(lcd单体)已被认为是一种新兴的污染物。然而,人们对它们在水生系统中的分布和分配行为知之甚少。以珠江三角洲城市水系为研究对象,对城市水系中lcm的空间分布和分区行为进行了研究。水中Σ44LCM的浓度范围为9.5 ~ 58 ng/L,平均为23 ng/L;沉积物中Σ44LCM的浓度范围为9.7 ~ 120 ng/g干重(dw),平均为55 ng/g dw。值得注意的是,本研究中lcm的沉积浓度是迄今为止报道的最高的。含氟联苯及其类似物(FBAs)在悬浮颗粒物(SPM)和沉积物中占主导地位,而联苯及其类似物(BAs)在滤液中含量更高。所有基质中的主要化合物是1-乙基-4-[2-(4-甲基苯基)乙基]苯。本文首次报道了5种lcm的有机碳归一化分配系数(logKOC)。分配系数(logKd)与有机碳含量呈显著正相关(P < 0.05),表明有机碳是影响lcm分配行为的主要因素。这些发现有助于我们更深入地了解lcm在水生环境中的分布和分配行为,有助于我们理解lcm在水生环境中的环境行为和生态风险。

Circulating platelet-derived growth factors (PDGFs) participate in the initiation and progression of cardiovascular diseases, yet their regulatory mechanisms remain poorly understood. This study aimed to investigate the influence of air pollution on PDGFs mRNA expression in platelets and its association with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs). We included 153 AMI patients at admission to assess the relationship between pollutant levels and platelet PDGFs mRNA expression, and followed up 142 AMI patients after discharge to evaluate the prognostic value of PDGFs mRNA expression for MACEs. Results showed that PM2.5 was non-linearly associated with the mRNA expression levels of PDGFC and PDGFD, while SO2 was non-linearly associated with the mRNA expression level of PDGFA (P < 0.05). Compared to controls, AMI patients at admission had an elevated PDGFD mRNA expression with a 4.705-fold increase (P < 0.05). Furthermore, PDGFs mRNA level exhibited a non-linear relationship with AMI occurrence (P < 0.05). Higher PDGFA mRNA expression (Q4 vs. Q1) was associated with a reduced risk of MACEs. Similarly, medium to high expression levels of PDGFC mRNA (Q2-Q4 vs Q1) had a lower risk of MACEs with adjusted hazard ratio of 0.366 (95% CI: 0.155–0.861).

循环血小板衍生生长因子(PDGFs)参与心血管疾病的发生和发展,但其调控机制尚不清楚。本研究旨在探讨空气污染对血小板PDGFs mRNA表达的影响及其与急性心肌梗死(AMI)和主要不良心血管事件(mace)的关系。我们纳入153例AMI患者入院时评估污染物水平与血小板PDGFs mRNA表达的关系,并随访142例AMI患者出院后评估PDGFs mRNA表达对mace的预后价值。结果显示,PM2.5与PDGFC和PDGFD mRNA表达水平呈非线性相关,SO2与PDGFA mRNA表达水平呈非线性相关(P < 0.05)。与对照组相比,AMI患者入院时PDGFD mRNA表达升高,增加4.705倍(P < 0.05)。此外,PDGFs mRNA水平与AMI发生呈非线性关系(P < 0.05)。较高的PDGFA mRNA表达(Q4 vs. Q1)与mace风险降低相关。同样,PDGFC mRNA中至高表达水平(Q2-Q4 vs Q1)发生mace的风险较低,校正风险比为0.366 (95% CI: 0.155-0.861)。这些发现表明,暴露于空气污染物与血小板中PDGFs mRNA表达的改变有关,并且这种表达与AMI和随后的mace显著相关。该研究强调了血小板中PDGFs mRNA作为评估个体对空气污染相关心血管事件易感性的生物标志物的潜力。

Organochlorine pesticides remain linked to adverse health outcomes, despite the widespread bans and regulations implemented during the 20th century. To better understand these links at a broader scale, researchers have leveraged meta-analyses to quantify pooled mean estimates and assess consistency across multiple primary studies. However, the rapid uptake of meta-analysis has created a diverse and largely fragmented secondary evidence base across many organochlorine pesticides and health outcomes. To consolidate and clarify this evidence base, we conducted a second-order synthesis of 40 meta-analyses, encompassing 129 meta-analytic model estimates. We examined the overall mean effect size and heterogeneity across the included meta-analyses. To ensure comparability, all effect sizes were converted to a common metric (odds ratio), and we used I2 as a common measure of heterogeneity. Our synthesis revealed that, across all included pesticides and adverse health outcomes, organochlorine pesticides increase the odds of an adverse health outcome by an average of 28% in organochlorine pesticide exposed groups compared to unexposed groups (OR = 1.279, 95% confidence interval, hereon CI = [1.16,1.41], 95% prediction interval, hereon PI = [0.660, 2.48]). Specifically, we found that DDE (OR = 1.41, CI = [1.09, 1.83], PI = [1.06, 1.08], number of meta-analyses, hereon (n): 12, number of meta-analytic model estimates, hereon (k): 17), and HCH (OR = 1.43. CI = [1.19, 1.7], PI = [1.07, 1.9]), n = 3, k = 3) exhibited the strongest associations with adverse health outcomes. Endocrine-related diseases showed the highest association with organochlorine pesticide exposure, with an average 52% increased odds (OR = 1.52, CI = [1.18, 1.95], PI = [1,17, 1.97], n = 13, k = 31). We then revealed that on average the observed heterogeneity in each meta-analysis was moderately high across all outcomes and pesticides (I2within.MA.estimate.average = 54.8%, CI = [37.3, 67.4]). The organochlorine pesticide which exhibited the most consistent impacts was DDT (I2within.MA.estimate.average = 47.7%, CI = [22.0, 65.0]) and the most constantly impacted adverse health outcome were malignant neoplasms (I2within.MA.estimate.average = 19.2%, CI = [0.0, 50.4]. Together, our second-order synthesis quantifies the overall association between exposure to organochlorine pesticides and adverse health outcomes, and the consistency of that association across multiple pesticides and outcomes, providing valuable insights for decision makers and researchers.
尽管在20世纪实施了广泛的禁令和法规,但有机氯农药仍然与不利的健康后果有关。为了更好地在更广泛的范围内理解这些联系,研究人员利用荟萃分析来量化汇总平均估计值,并评估多个主要研究的一致性。然而,荟萃分析的迅速普及已经在许多有机氯农药和健康结果之间建立了一个多样化且很大程度上分散的二级证据基础。为了巩固和澄清这一证据基础,我们对40项荟萃分析进行了二阶综合,包括129项荟萃分析模型估计。我们在纳入的meta分析中检查了总体平均效应大小和异质性。为了确保可比性,所有效应量都转换为一个共同的度量(优势比),我们使用I2作为异质性的共同度量。我们的综合结果显示,在所有纳入的农药和不良健康结果中,有机氯农药暴露组的不良健康结果的几率比未暴露组平均增加28% (OR = 1.279, 95%置信区间,CI =[1.16,1.41], 95%预测区间,PI =[0.660, 2.48])。具体来说,我们发现DDE (OR = 1.41, CI = [1.09, 1.83], PI = [1.06, 1.08], meta分析的数量,这里(n): 12, meta分析模型估计的数量,这里(k): 17)和HCH (OR = 1.43)。CI = [1.19, 1.7], PI = [1.07, 1.9]), n = 3, k = 3)与不良健康结局的相关性最强。内分泌相关疾病与有机氯农药暴露的相关性最高,平均增加52%的几率(OR = 1.52, CI = [1.18, 1.95], PI = [1,17,1.97], n = 13, k = 31)。然后我们发现,在所有结果和农药中,每个荟萃分析中观察到的异质性平均较高(i2 in. ma .estimate.average = 54.8%, CI =[37.3, 67.4])。影响最一致的有机氯农药是滴滴涕(I2within.MA.estimate.average = 47.7%, CI =[22.0, 65.0]),影响最持续的不良健康结局是恶性肿瘤(I2within.MA.estimate.average = 19.2%, CI =[0.0, 50.4]。总之,我们的二阶合成量化了暴露于有机氯农药与不良健康结果之间的总体关联,以及多种农药和结果之间的关联的一致性,为决策者和研究人员提供了有价值的见解。

Clarifying the impacts of microplastics (MPs) on microbial communities real natural soil environments is of great significance for evaluating MPs risks and its control. However, it is remains unclear, especially in the alpine soil. Hence, field sampling combined with density separation, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and high-throughput sequencing were employed to reveal the soil MPs distribution and microbial communities characteristics of 63 soil samples from 7 counties in Lhasa areas. Soil MPs abundances ranged from 16.75 to 1374.75 items/kg, with a mean of 244.65 items/kg. Dominant shapes were films (37.7%) and fragments (34.2%), mainly < 500 μm (78.9%) in size, black (66.5%) and green (21.5%) in color, and composed of Polyethylene (PE, 34.9%) and Polypropylene (PP, 28.6%). Soil physicochemical factors (BD, pH, and SOC) and environmental factors (elevation, radiation, and temperature) respectively influenced MPs migration and fragmentation. Proteobacteria (10.12%~65.06%), Actinobacteriota (4.67%~57.01%) and Ascomycota (5.29%~95.19%), Basidiomycota (0.32%~80.13%) accounted for the highest proportion at the phylum level of soil bacteria and fungi communities. Environmental factors (temperature and radiation) and soil properties (SOC and TN) drive the spatial variability of soil microbial community composition. MPs abundance mainly influences the composition of fungi communities, with 70.83% of fungi taxa significant correlations. Increased abundance of < 500 μm MPs significantly decreased the relative abundance of sensitive microbial (Kribbella and Coprinus). The increase of the MPs abundance significantly increased the relative abundance of tolerant microbial (Sulfurifustis, Papiliotrema, and Cladosporium). These findings elucidate MPs distribution and impacts on soil microbial communities in alpine areas.
明确微塑料对真实自然土壤环境微生物群落的影响,对微塑料风险评价及控制具有重要意义。然而,目前还不清楚,特别是在高山土壤中。为此,采用实地采样、密度分离、傅里叶变换红外光谱(FTIR)和高通量测序相结合的方法,对拉萨地区7个县63份土壤样品的MPs分布和微生物群落特征进行了研究。土壤MPs丰度范围为16.75 ~ 1374.75项/kg,平均为244.65项/kg。主要形状为薄膜(37.7%)和碎片(34.2%),尺寸以<; 500 μm(78.9%)为主,颜色以黑色(66.5%)和绿色(21.5%)为主,由聚乙烯(PE, 34.9%)和聚丙烯(PP, 28.6%)组成。土壤理化因子(BD、pH和SOC)和环境因子(海拔、辐射和温度)分别影响MPs迁移和破碎化。在门水平上,以变形菌门(10.12%~65.06%)、放线菌门(4.67%~57.01%)、子囊菌门(5.29%~95.19%)、担子菌门(0.32%~80.13%)所占比例最高。环境因子(温度和辐射)和土壤性质因子(有机碳和全氮)驱动土壤微生物群落组成的空间变异。MPs丰度主要影响真菌群落组成,70.83%的真菌类群与MPs丰度呈显著相关。500 μm MPs丰度的增加显著降低了敏感微生物(Kribbella和Coprinus)的相对丰度。MPs丰度的增加显著增加了耐药微生物(硫霉菌、乳突菌和枝孢菌)的相对丰度。这些发现阐明了多磺酸粘多糖在高寒地区的分布及其对土壤微生物群落的影响。

The mechanisms by which biochar regulates polylactic acid (PLA) contamination and influences carbon cycling under freeze-thaw conditions remain largely unknown. To address this, this study conducted indoor simulated freeze-thaw cycles, setting up four treatments: control (CK), addition of 3% biochar (B), addition of 2% PLA (L), and simultaneous addition of both (BL). This study systematically investigated how biochar and PLA regulate soil aggregate stability, organic carbon fractions, enzyme activity, and microbial carbon metabolism. The results indicated that the BL treatment significantly increased the proportion of aggregates larger than 0.25 mm (an increase of 5.71 times at the early stage of freeze-thaw) and restored the mean weight diameter (MWD) to CK levels. In terms of carbon dynamics, the BL treatment increased the organic carbon content of aggregates larger than 0.25 mm by 2.28 times compared to the L treatment, while the active organic carbon (AOC) decreased by 4.19%–6.19% (P < 0.05). Enzyme activity analysis showed that the sucrose enzyme activity under the BL treatment was significantly increased by 37.13% compared to the L treatment. Structural equation modeling (SEM) confirms that microbial carbon metabolism is a central hub for regulating organic carbon (R2=0.981). The direct carbon sequestration effect of PLA is offset by its indirect microbial inhibitory effects, whereas biochar promotes carbon stabilization through indirect pathways such as stabilizing aggregates and regulating microbial metabolism. This study confirms that biochar effectively mitigates freeze-thaw damage to soil structure in PLA-contaminated soils through physical protection and chemical adsorption. By counteracting the metabolic inhibition caused by PLA degradation, it ultimately enhances soil organic carbon stability. This research provides theoretical and practical support for assessing ecological risks of biodegradable microplastic pollution in cold regions.
在冻融条件下,生物炭调节聚乳酸污染和影响碳循环的机制在很大程度上仍然未知。为了解决这一问题,本研究进行了室内模拟冻融循环,设置了4个处理:对照(CK)、添加3%生物炭(B)、添加2%聚乳酸(L)和同时添加两者(BL)。本研究系统研究了生物炭和聚乳酸对土壤团聚体稳定性、有机碳组分、酶活性和微生物碳代谢的调节作用。结果表明:BL处理显著提高了土壤中大于0.25 mm团聚体的比例(在冻融前期增加了5.71倍),使土壤平均重径(MWD)恢复到CK水平;在碳动态方面,BL处理使大于0.25 mm团聚体有机碳含量比L处理提高了2.28倍,而活性有机碳(AOC)降低了4.19% ~ 6.19% (P < 0.05)。酶活性分析表明,与L处理相比,BL处理的蔗糖酶活性显著提高了37.13%。结构方程模型(SEM)证实微生物碳代谢是调节有机碳的中心枢纽(R2=0.981)。聚乳酸的直接固碳作用被其间接的微生物抑制作用所抵消,而生物炭则通过稳定团聚体和调节微生物代谢等间接途径促进碳稳定。本研究证实,生物炭通过物理保护和化学吸附,有效减轻了pla污染土壤冻融对土壤结构的破坏。通过抵消PLA降解引起的代谢抑制,最终提高土壤有机碳的稳定性。该研究为寒区可生物降解微塑料污染生态风险评估提供了理论和实践支持。

Halogenated organic compounds (HOCs) are pervasive in marine environments, yet their molecular diversity, vertical distribution, and fate in deep-sea ecosystems remain largely uncharted. Here, we integrated non-targeted analysis, geochemical profiling, and metagenomics to systematically analyze a 500-cm sediment core from the Haima deep-sea cold seep, deciphering these key aspects and their controlling factors. Non-targeted analysis identified 669 HOCs (at molecular formula level), predominantly of marine origin with saturated structures. The highest HOC diversity was found in the oxic/suboxic (OS) zone, where 73.4% of the frequently detected HOCs reached their peak abundance. Concurrently, a marked decrease in organochlorines was observed at the OS–suboxic/anoxic (SA) interface, followed by level stabilization below this transition, suggesting regulation by abrupt redox shifts. Correlation analyses revealed co-regulation of HOC distribution by geochemical (e.g., depth, pH, and SO42-) and microbial (e.g., reductive and hydrolytic dehalogenases) factors. Metagenomics combined with redundancy analysis further demonstrated significant interactions between HOCs and dehalogenating microbial community along the vertical profile. In summary, this study provided an integrated perspective on the biogeochemical cycling of HOCs in the deep-sea cold seep, linking their removal at redox boundaries, long-term burial, and spatial organization to underlying microbial and geochemical drivers.
卤化有机化合物(HOCs)在海洋环境中普遍存在,但其分子多样性、垂直分布以及在深海生态系统中的命运在很大程度上仍是未知的。本文将非定向分析、地球化学剖面和宏基因组学相结合,对海马深海冷渗500 cm沉积物岩心进行了系统分析,揭示了这些关键方面及其控制因素。非靶向分析鉴定出669种hoc(在分子式水平上),主要是海洋来源的饱和结构。在氧/亚氧区(OS)发现了最高的HOC多样性,其中73.4%的频繁检测到的HOC达到了其丰度峰值。同时,在os -亚氧/缺氧(SA)界面上观察到有机氯的显著减少,随后在此过渡下水平稳定,表明受突然氧化还原转移的调节。相关分析显示,地球化学因素(如深度、pH和SO42-)和微生物因素(如还原酶和水解脱卤酶)共同调节HOC分布。宏基因组学结合冗余分析进一步表明,沿垂直剖面,hoc与脱卤微生物群落之间存在显著的相互作用。综上所述,本研究为深海冷渗漏中HOCs的生物地球化学循环提供了一个综合视角,将它们在氧化还原边界的去除、长期埋藏和空间组织与潜在的微生物和地球化学驱动因素联系起来。

Here, we integrated non-targeted analysis, geochemical profiling, and metagenomics to systematically analyze a 500-cm sediment core from the Haima deep-sea cold seep, deciphering these key aspects and their controlling factors. Non-targeted analysis identified 669 HOCs (at molecular formula level), predominantly of marine origin with saturated structures. The highest HOC diversity was found in the oxic/suboxic (OS) zone, where 73.4% of the frequently detected HOCs reached their peak abundance. Concurrently, a marked decrease in organochlorines was observed at the OS–suboxic/anoxic (SA) interface, followed by level stabilization below this transition, suggesting regulation by abrupt redox shifts. Correlation analyses revealed co-regulation of HOC distribution by geochemical (e.g., depth, pH, and SO<sub>4</sub><sup>2-</sup>) and microbial (e.g., reductive and hydrolytic dehalogenases) factors. Metagenomics combined with redundancy analysis further demonstrated significant interactions between HOCs and dehalogenating microbial community along the vertical profile.
