Biosorption of Cu2+, Cd2+, Pb2+, and Zn2+ using dried marine green macroalga Caulerpa lentillifera

The sorption of Cu2+, Cd2+, Pb2+, and Zn2+ by a dried green macroalga Caulerpa lentillifera was investigated. The removal efficiency increased with pH. The analysis with FT-IR indicated that possible functional groups involved in metal sorption by this alga were O-H bending, N-H bending, N-H stretching, C-N stretching, C-O, SO stretching, and S-O stretching. The sorption of all metal ions rapidly reached equilibrium within 20min. The sorption kinetics of these metals were governed by external mass transfer and intraparticle diffusion processes. The sorption isotherm followed the Langmuir isotherm where the maximum sorption capacities was Pb2+>Cu2+>Cd2+>Zn2+.     

Biosorption and Bio-Kinetic Properties of Solar Saltern Halobacterial Strains for Managing Zn2+, As2+ and Cd2+ Metals

Bacillus mucilaginosus has already been proved to be capable of degrading silicate minerals, but it is not very clear about the molecular mechanisms of bacterial mineral weathering. To understand the relationship between bacterial weathering of minerals and bacterial secreted proteins, B. mucilaginosus was chosen to study the expression of its extracellular proteins in the process of weathering potassium minerals. This article reveals that certain secreted proteins, related to weathering of potassium minerals, can be induced under conditions such as bacterial nutritional deficiency and the existence of K-bearing rock powders. This suggests direct evidence of the metabolic changes of extracellular enzymes in bacteria during the process of weathering of potassium minerals. It was speculated that these secreted proteins, together with extracellular polymers like polysaccharides, may accelerate the weathering of potassium minerals, resulting in the release of K⁺ needed for the bacterial growth.     

Folding pathway of apo-metallothionein induced by Zn2+, Cd2+ and Co2+.

Metal ion binding to the sulfhydryl groups of apometallothionein (apo-MT) causes both the formation of native metal-thiolate clusters and the folding of the polypeptide chain of each domain. Cd2+ and Zn2+ react with apo-MT to form metal-thiolate bonds in reactions that are complete within milliseconds and which are pH-dependent. Dual mixing experiments were conducted that involve the initial reaction of metal ion and apo-MT followed by mixing with 5,5'-N-dithio-bis(2-nitrobenzoate) or EDTA after 26 ms. They showed that structures had formed within the brief reaction period which were resistant to rapid reaction with reagents that interact with sulfhydryl groups or metal ions, respectively. It was concluded that native metallothionein domains had been constituted within this brief period. Apo-MT was also titrated with Co2+ to yield Co(n)-MT (n=1-7). Initially, Co2+ bound to independent, tetrahedral thiolate sites. Spectrophotometric analysis of the titration suggested that the independent Co(II) sites began to coalesce into clusters at n=4 (pH 7.2) or n=5 (pH 8.4). Back titration of free sulfhydryl groups (S) in Co(n)-MT (n=1-7) with iodoacetamide at pH 7.2 confirmed that clustering began at n=4. Upon conversion of these alkylated structures to the corresponding 113Cd2+ species 113Cd NMR spectroscopy established that the location of Co(II) in Co(n)-MT (n=1-3) was non-specific and that at n=4, the only observable structure was Co(II)4S11. The results suggest possible kinetic pathways of folding that are conceptually similar to those hypothesized for other small proteins.     

A general model for biosorption of Cd2+, Cu2+ and Zn2+ by aerobic granules

Aerobic granules are microbial aggregates with a strong and compact structure. This study looked into the feasibility of aerobic granules as a novel type of biosorbent for the removal of individual Cd(2+), Cu(2+) and Zn(2+) from aqueous solution. Based on the thermodynamics of biosorption reaction, a general model was developed to describe the equilibrium biosorption of individual Cd(2+), Cu(2+) and Zn(2+) by aerobic granules. This model provides good insights into the thermodynamic mechanisms of biosorption of heavy metals. The model prediction was in good agreement with the experimental data obtained. It was further demonstrated that the Langmuir, Freundlich and Sips or Hill equations were particular cases of the proposed model. The biosorption capacity of individual Cd(2+), Cu(2+) and Zn(2+) on aerobic granules was 172.7, 59.6 and 164.5 mgg(-1), respectively. These values may imply that aerobic granules are effective biosorbent for the removal of Cd(2+), Cu(2+) and Zn(2+) from industrial wastewater.     

Removal of Cd2+, Pb2+, and Zn2+ from contaminated water using dolomite powder

Dolomite collected from Surat Thani Province in Thailand was investigated for use as a sorbent for the removal of divalent heavy metal cations from an aqueous solution. The sorbent had a surface area of 2.46 m²/g and a pH of zero point charge (pHzpc) of 9.2. Batch sorption was used to examine the effect of the pH (pH 3–7) on the sorption capacity of Cd²⁺, Pb²⁺ and Zn²⁺, alone or together as an equimolar mixture at various concentrations. Alone, each heavy metal cation was adsorbed faster at a higher pH, where the sorption of Cd²⁺ and Pb²⁺ fitted a Langmuir isotherm, but Zn²⁺ sorption best fitted a Freundlich isotherm. Under equimolar competitive sorption, the sorption capacity of each cation was decreased by 75.8% (0.29–0.07 mM/g), 82.8% (0.53–0.09 mM/g), and 95.7% (0.84–0.04 mM/g) for Cd²⁺, Pb²⁺ and Zn²⁺, respectively, compared to that with the respective single cation. Desorption of these heavy metal cations from dolomite was low, with an average desorption level of 0.06–17.4%. Furthermore, since dolomite is readily available and rather cheap, it is potentially suitable for use as an efficient sorbent to sorb Cd²⁺ and Pb²⁺, and perhaps Zn²⁺, from contaminated water.     

Post-chemiluminescence behaviour of Ni2+, Mg2+, Cd2+ and Zn2+ in the potassium ferricyanide-luminol reaction.

A new chemiluminescence (CL) reaction was observed when Ni2+, Mg2+, Cd2+ or Zn2+ was injected into the reaction mixture after the finish of the CL reaction of alkaline luminol and potassium ferricyanide. This reaction is described as a post-chemiluminescence (PCL) reaction. The possible mechanism for the PCL was proposed based on studies of the CL kinetic characteristic and the CL spectra. The experimental conditions of the CL reactions were optimized and the feasibility of using the reaction to analyse these metal ions was evaluated. The PCL reaction method operates in the ranges: 1 x 10(-7)-8 x 10(-6) g/L Ni2+; 3 x 10(-6)-2 x 10(-4) g/L Mg2+; 8 x 10(-7)-1 x 10(-4) g/L Cd2+; and 2 x 10(-4)-2 x 10(-3) g/L Zn2+, with detection limits of 4 x 10(-8) g/mL, 1 x 10(-6) g/mL, 3 x 10(-7) g/mL, 8 x 10(-5) g/mL, respectively.

• 3.3. But when the enzyme was inhibited by 0.1 mM Cd²⁺ or Zn²⁺, Ca²⁺ and Mg²⁺ reactivated the inhibited form of BChE.

     

Response of catalase activity to Ag+, Cd2+, Cr6+, Cu2+ and Zn2+ in five tissues of freshwater fish Oreochromis niloticus

Catalase (CAT, EC 1.11.1.6) is an important enzyme in antioxidant defense system protecting animals from oxidative stress. Freshwater fish Oreochromis niloticus were exposed for 96 h to different concentrations of Ag(+), Cd(2+), Cr(6+), Cu(2+) and Zn(2+), known to cause oxidative stress, and subsequently CAT activities in liver, kidney, gill, intestine and brain were measured. In vivo, CAT was stimulated by all metals except Ag(+) in the liver and the highest increase in CAT activity (183%) resulted from 1.0 mg Cd(2+)/L exposure, whereas 0.5 mg Ag(+)/L exposure resulted in a sharp decrease (44%). In tilapia kidney, cadmium and zinc had no significant effects on CAT activity, whereas 0.1 mg Cr(6+)/L exposure caused a decrease (44%). Cadmium and zinc did not significantly affect the CAT activity in gill; however, 0.5 mg Ag(+)/L exposure caused an increase (66%) and 1.5 mg Cr(6+)/L exposure caused a decrease (97%) in CAT activity. All metals, except Cu(2+)(41% increase), caused significant decreases in CAT activity in the intestine. In brain, 1.0 mg Zn(2+)/L resulted in an increase in CAT activity (126%), while 1.5 mg Ag(+)/L exposure caused a 54% decrease. In vitro, all metals -- except Ag(+) and Cu(2+) in kidney -- significantly inhibited the CAT activity in all tissues. Results emphasized that CAT may be considered as a sensitive bioindicator of the antioxidant defense system.     

Co2+, Cu2+, and Zn2+ accumulation by cyanobacterium Spirulina platensis

The Spirulina platensis biomass was characterized for its metal accumulation as a function of pH, external metal concentration, equilibrium isotherms, kinetics, effect of co-ions under free (living cells, lyophilized, and oven-dried) and immobilized (Ca-alginate and polyacrylamide gel) conditions. The maximum metal biosorption by S. platensis biomass was observed at pH 6.0 with free and immobilized biomass. The studies on equilibrium isotherm experiments showed highest maximum metal loading by living cells (181.0 +/- 13.1 mg Co(2+)/g, 272.1 +/- 29.4 mg Cu(2+)/g and 250.3 +/- 26.4 mg Zn(2+)/g) followed by lyophilized (79.7 +/- 9.6 mg Co(2+)/g, 250.0 +/- 22.4 mg Cu(2+)/g and 111.2 +/- 9.8 mg Zn(2+)/g) and oven-dried (25.9 +/- 1.9 mg Co(2+)/g, 160.0 +/- 14.2 mg Cu(2+)/g and 35.1 +/- 2.7 mg Zn(2+)/g) biomass of S. platensis on a dry weight basis. The polyacrylamide gel (PAG) immobilization of lyophilized biomass found to be superior over Ca-alginate (Ca-Alg) and did not interfere with the S. platensis biomass biosorption capacity, yielding 25% of metal loading after PAG entrapment. The time-dependent metal biosorption in both the free and immobilized form revealed existence of two phases involving an initial rapid phase (which lasted for 1-2 min) contributing 63-77% of total biosorption, followed by a slower phase that continued for 2 h. The metal elution studies conducted using various reagents showed more than 90% elution with mineral acids, calcium salts, and Na(2)EDTA with free (lyophilized or oven-dried) as well as immobilized biomass. The experiments conducted to examine the suitability of PAG-immobilized S. platensis biomass over multiple cycles of Co(2+), Cu(2+), and Zn(2+) sorption and elution showed that the same PAG cubes can be reused for at least seven cycles with high efficiency.
