Synergistic Removal of Ciprofloxacin and Sulfamethoxazole by Lemna minor and Salvinia molesta in Mixed Culture: Implications for Phytoremediation of Antibiotic-Contaminated Water

Abstract: Aquatic macrophytes have been used for the removal of antibiotics from contaminated water. Here, we have studied the capacity of Lemna minor and Salvinia molesta to reclaim ciprofloxacin (1.5 µg Cipro L−1) and/or sulfamethoxazole (0.3 µg Sulfa L−1) from artificially contaminated waters when plants were exposed in monoculture (L. minor or S. molesta) or in mixed culture (L. minor + S. molesta). Neither Cipro nor Sulfa alone induced negative effects on plants. As shown by the Abbot modelling, Cipro and Sulfa dis… Show more
