“…One of the great challenges in the transition from conventional to organic agriculture is the adaptation of introduced beneficial microorganisms (e.g., biological control and bioremediation agents) to a crop field with residual agrochemicals (Gharieb et al, 2004;Shen et al, 2019), or in areas where agrochemicals and antagonistic microorganisms are applied at the same time (Mishra et al, 2014;Nongmaithem, 2015;Palazzini et al, 2018). An alternative and rich guild of microorganisms adapted to these conditions are endophytic fungi, which inhabit the interior tissue of plants without causing apparent disease symptoms, facilitate plant adaptation to the environment, and may act as antagonists against phytopathogens; thus, they can be used as biological control and bioremediation agents (Harman, 2007;Howell, 2007;Stamatiu-Sánchez et al, 2014;Deng and Cao, 2017;Khan and Mohiddin, 2018;Holanda et al, 2019;Pietro-Souza et al, 2020).…”

The transition from conventional to organic agriculture is often challenged by the adaptation of biological control agents to environments heavily exposed to agrochemical pollutants. We studied Trichoderma species isolated from living leaf tissues of wild Rubiacaeae (coffee family) plants to determine their fungicide tolerance and potential for bioremoval. First, we assessed the in vitro tolerance to fungicides of four Trichoderma isolates (Trichoderma rifaii T1, T. aff. crassum T2, T. aff. atroviride T3, and T. aff. strigosellum T4) by placing mycelial plugs onto solid media supplemented with seven different systemic and non-systemic fungicides. After a week, most of the fungicides did not significantly inhibit the growth of the isolates, except in the case of cyproconazole, where the only isolate able to grow was T1; however, the colony morphology was affected by the presence of fungicides. Second, biological removal potential was established for selected isolates. For this experiment, the isolates T1, T2, and T4 were independently inoculated into liquid media with the fungicides azoxystrobin, chlorothalonil, cyproconazole, and trifloxystrobin. After 14 days of incubation, a removal of up to 89% was achieved for chlorothalonil, 46.4% for cyproconazole, and 33.1% for trifloxystrobin using viable biomass. In the case of azoxystrobin, the highest removal (82.2%) occurred by adsorption to fungal biomass. Ecotoxicological tests in Daphnia magna revealed that T1 has the highest removal potential, achieving significant elimination of every fungicide, while simultaneously detoxifying the aqueous matrix (except in the case of cyproconazole). Isolate T4 also exhibited an intermediate efficiency, while isolate T2 was unable to detoxify the matrix in most cases. The removal and detoxification of cyproconazole failed with all the isolates. These findings suggest that endosphere of wild plants could be an attractive guild to find new Trichoderma species with promising bioremediation capabilities. In addition, the results demonstrate that attention should be placed when combining certain types of agrochemicals with antagonistic fungi in Integrated Pest and Disease Management strategies or when transitioning to organic agriculture.

“…For aquatic organisms, chloramphenicol has a high level of ecological toxicity (Zhang et al 2021a , b , c , d ). This compound inhibits the growth and development of green algae (Xiong et al 2019 ), blue-green algae (Xiong et al 2019 ), marine algae, and freshwater green alga (Parthasarathy et al 2020 ) through specific protein control (Holanda et al 2019 ). For animals, e.g., rat, cat, dog, and pig and humans, chloramphenicol is known to be a contributing factor in the aplastic anemia (Zhang et al 2021a , b , c , d ).…”

Chloramphenicol is a broad-spectrum bacterial antibiotic used against conjunctivitis, meningitis, plague, cholera, and typhoid fever. As a consequence, chloramphenicol ends up polluting the aquatic environment, wastewater treatment plants, and hospital wastewaters, thus disrupting ecosystems and inducing microbial resistance. Here, we review the occurrence, toxicity, and removal of chloramphenicol with emphasis on adsorption techniques. We present the adsorption performance of adsorbents such as biochar, activated carbon, porous carbon, metal–organic framework, composites, zeolites, minerals, molecularly imprinted polymers, and multi-walled carbon nanotubes. The effect of dose, pH, temperature, initial concentration, and contact time is discussed. Adsorption is controlled by π–π interactions, donor–acceptor interactions, hydrogen bonding, and electrostatic interactions. We also discuss isotherms, kinetics, thermodynamic data, selection of eluents, desorption efficiency, and regeneration of adsorbents. Porous carbon-based adsorbents exhibit excellent adsorption capacities of 500–1240 mg g −1 . Most adsorbents can be reused over at least four cycles.

“…Despite the intensive efforts to study this biome and the greater knowledge about its characteristics, microbial diversity remains unexplored in the Amapaense Amazon. Microorganisms play unique and vital functions in ecosystems and biosphere maintenance; therefore, Amapaense Amazon could provide microorganisms required for developing substances of biotechnological interest [10,11].…”

The objective of this research was to perform screening of biosurfactant-producing bacteria from Amapaense Amazon soils. Floodplain- and upland-forest soils of three municipalities of the Amapá state were isolated and identified. The isolates were cultured in nutrient broth with olive oil, and their extracts were evaluated according to drop collapse, oil dispersion, emulsification, and surface tension tests. From three hundred and eighteen isolates, the 43 bacteria were selected and identified by 16S rDNA gene sequencing, indicating the presence of three different genera, Serratia, Paenibacillus, and Citrobacter. The extracellular biosurfactant production pointed out the 15 most efficient bacteria that presented high emulsification capacity (E24 > 48%) and stability (less than 10% of drop after 72 h) and great potential to reduce the surface tension (varying from 49.40 to 34.50 mN·m−1). Cluster analysis classified genetically related isolates in different groups, which can be connected to differences in the amount or the sort of biosurfactants. Isolates from Serratia genus presented better emulsification capacity and produced a more significant surface tension drop, indicating a promising potential for biotechnological applications.
