  • Title: Growth performance, antioxidant response, biodegradation and transcriptome analysis of Chlorella pyrenoidosa after nonylphenol exposure.
    Author: Feng Y, Wang A, Fu W, Song D.
    Journal: Sci Total Environ; 2022 Feb 01; 806(Pt 1):150507. PubMed ID: 34583075.
    Abstract:
    Chlorella pyrenoidosa was exposed to nonylphenol (NP) to investigate the tolerance, antioxidant response, removal efficiency, and biodegradation mechanism. We conducted studies on algal biomass, chlorophyll a content, and photosynthetic activity, and found that C. pyrenoidosa exhibited a high tolerance even at 8 mg L-1 of NP. Changes in peroxidase (POD) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activities indicated that the NP-induced oxidative stress caused oxidant damage, which increased the malondialdehyde (MDA) content. After culturing for 120 h, the NP removal efficiency of C. pyrenoidosa was 89%, 59%, 49%, and 48% in the 2, 4, 6, and 8 mg L-1 treatment groups, respectively. Degradation intermediates determined by GC-MS suggested that the biodegradation of NP in C. pyrenoidosa originated from the long alkyl chain. In addition, transcriptome analysis indicated that NP affected photosynthesis, antioxidase, and oxidoreductase activity-related genes. In summary, our results indicated that C. pyrenoidosa is a species that exhibits high tolerance and biodegradation capacity toward NP.
