Herein, we report the bimetallic (Sn,Zn)(O,S) oxysulfide nanocatalyst with a facile method. The Sn-based catalyst with the addition of Zn was synthesized with the proportions of 0, 20, 30 and 50% of Zn to Sn precursors for preparation. The catalysts were characterized by XRD , TEM , SEM XPS , and UV–vis instruments. The nanocatalysts were also tested for the detoxification of Cr +6 . The Sn-20 catalyst with 20 M percent of Zn(Ac) 2 ·2H 2 O showed an excellent performance for the induced photocatalytic reduction of Cr +6 under visible light irradiation at room temperature. The complete reduction of Cr +6 was achieved within 80 min by Sn-20 catalyst. However, 85.6, 97, and 94% of Cr +6 reductions were achieved within 80 min under visible light illumination by Sn-0, Sn-30, and Sn-50 catalysts, respectively. Hence, the bimetallic (Sn,Zn)(O,S) oxysulfide nanocatalyst will be a candidate and highly potential material for the detoxification of Cr(VI)-containing polluted water.

Background Chromium (Cr) mainly has two stable forms: Cr 3+ and Cr 6+ . Cr and its compound are widely used in the printing, dyeing, leather making, and metallurgy industry. They are evitably released into the environment and pose a significant threat to creatures, for instance, the excessive chromium (Cr) burden in the marine ecosystem is often harmful to fish. Intestinal microbiota greatly affects fish performance, but how waterborne Cr affects fish intestinal microbiota is unclear. To test the hypothesis that the waterborne Cr exposure could significantly affect fish’ intestinal microbiota homeostasis, and the effect was highly dependent on Cr concentration and speciation, the juvenile leopard coral grouper Plectropomus leopardus were exposed to waterborne Cr 3+ and Cr 6+ (0.1, 0.5 ppm) for 7 days, and the intestinal microbiota was determined by Amplicon sequencing of the 16S rRNA. Results In all Cr treatment groups, the alpha diversity of intestinal microbiota communities of P. leopardus was decreased. The phyla Proteobacteria, Firmicutes, Actinobacteria, Chloroflexi and Bacteroidetes were the dominant intestinal microbiota. The Chao index diversity significantly declined in Cr treatment group, indicating the intestinal microbiota community structure was changed. Among the dominant intestinal microbiota, Proteobacteria was most sensitive to Cr exposure, and it increased after xposure. The PICRUSt predicted that 0.5 ppm Cr 3+ expousure caused metabolism disordered in the intestinal of P. leopardus . Conclusions Waterborne Cr 3+ and Cr 6+ significantly disturbed intestinal microbiota homeostasis in P. leopardus , including their diversity, composition, and community structure. The metabolism level of intestinal microbiota in P. leopardus was decreased by Cr 3+ exposure. High concentrations of Cr 3+ may pose potential risks to the intestinal homeostasis of P. leopardus .

Ochratoxin A (OTA) is a highly toxic mycotoxin which can cause a variety of diseases. Sensitive detection of OTA is significant for food safety. Herein, a feasible and sensitive immunoassay was established for OTA detection by alkaline phosphatase (ALP) triggered gold nanoclusters (AuNCs) turn-on fluorescence. The fluorescence of the AuNCs can be quenched by Cr 6+ induced aggregation of AuNCs and the fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) between AuNCs and Cr 6+ . Under the catalytic action of ALP-labelled IgG (IgG-ALP), the ascorbic acid 2-phosphate (AA2P) was hydrolyzed to ascorbic acid (AA) for the reducing of Cr 6+ to Cr 3+ . As a result, the degrees of AuNCs aggregation and FRET were weakened and the fluorescence of AuNCs was turned on. The amount of OTA in the sample was negatively correlated with the amount of IgG-ALP captured by anti-OTA monoclonal antibody (McAb) in the microplate. In optimal conditions, the turn-on fluorescence immunoassay had a good linear range of 6.25–100 ng/mL, and the detection limit was 0.693 ng/mL. The recoveries of OTA from corn were 95.89%-101.08% for the fluorescence immunoassay. This work provided a feasible, sensitive and good selectivity fluorescence method for OTA detection.

A novel oxidative magnetization, involving phosphomolybdic acid and Fe(NO 3 ) 3 co-promoted pyrolysis, was established to manufacture highly adsorptive magnetic biochars for adsorbing aqueous tetracycline, methylene blue, and Cr 6+ . The modification of phosphomolybdic acid greatly boosted the formation of γ-Fe 2 O 3 and oxygen containing groups with enhancement of specific surface area and pore volume at 400 °C. Importantly, γ-Fe 2 O 3 was stably fixed on surface in quasi-nanoscale. The oxidized magnetic biochar displayed 631.53, 158.45, 155.13 mg/g adsorption capabilities for tetracycline, methylene blue, and Cr 6+ with 22.79 emu/g saturation magnetization, respectively. Oxygen containing groups and quasi-nanoscale γ-Fe 2 O 3 served as key adsorption sites for these pollutants. A general oxidative magnetization was established for manufacturing high-performance magnetic biochar through phosphomolybdic acid/Fe(NO 3 ) 3 co-promoted pyrolysis at relatively low temperature.
