Interaction of silver nanoparticles with pure nitrifying bacteria
In this study, Nitrosomonas europaea ATCC 19718 was exposed to silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) of different particle size (7 ± 3 and 40 ± 14 nm) and different coatings (polyvinyl alcohol and adenosine triphosphate disodium). For all different AgNPs used in the study, large aggregates were gradually formed after addition of AgNPs into the media containing <em>N. europaea</em>. The scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy of the microstructures suggested that bacterial cells and electrolytes had significant effects on AgNP aggregation. Size- and coating-dependent inhibition of ammonia oxidation by AgNPs was observed, and our analysis suggested that the inhibition was not only due to the released dissolved silver, but also the dispersity of AgNPs in the culture media. Electron microscopy images showed AgNPs could cause the damage of cell wall of <em>N. europaea</em> and make the nucleoids disintegrated and condensed next to cell membrane. Surface-enhanced Raman scattering signals also implied the damage of cell membrane caused by AgNPs. Further protein expression analysis revealed that AgNPs would inhibit important protein functions, including biosynthesis, gene expression, energy production and nitrification to further cause toxicity to <em>N. europaea</em>. Our findings explain the susceptibility of <em>N. europaea</em> to inhibition by AgNPs and the possible interaction between each other. Future research is needed to characterize these effects in more complex cultures and media such as activated sludge and wastewater

Microbial degradation of steroidal estrogens
Steroidal estrogens, widespread in the environment, are contaminants of potential concern because exposure to these compounds can cause adverse impacts on aquatic life. Intensive research efforts have been undertaken in order to better understand the environmental occurrence of these compounds. In addition to physical/chemical reactions, biological processes – microbial biodegradation of steroidal estrogens – play a vital role in determining the fate and transport of these compounds in built and natural environments. This review summarizes the current state of knowledge on the microbiology of estrogen biodegradation. Aerobic and anaerobic estrogen-degrading microorganisms are phylogenetically diverse; they are mainly isolated from soils, activated sludge, dental plaque and intestines. Estrogens can be degraded via growth-linked and non-growth-linked reactions, as well as through abiotic degradation in the presence of selective microorganisms. Current knowledge on estrogen biodegradation kinetics and pathways is limited. Molecular methods are useful in deciphering estrogen-degrading microbial community and tracking the quantity of known degraders in bioreactors with different operating conditions. Future research efforts aimed at bridging knowledge gaps on estrogen biodegradation are also proposed
Removal of silver nanoparticles by coagulation processes
Commercial use of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) will lead to a potential route for human exposure via potable water. Coagulation followed by sedimentation, as a conventional technique in the drinking water treatment facilities, may become an important barrier to prevent human from AgNP exposures. This study investigated the removal of AgNP suspensions by four regular coagulants. In the aluminum sulfate and ferric chloride coagulation systems, the water parameters slightly affected the AgNP removal. However, in the poly aluminum chloride and polyferric sulfate coagulation systems, the optimal removal efficiencies were achieved at pH 7.5, while higher or lower of pH could reduce the AgNP removal. Besides, the increasing natural organic matter (NOM) would reduce the AgNP removal, while Ca<sup><font size="1">2+</font></sup> and suspended solids concentrations would also affect the AgNP removal. In addition, results from the transmission electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction showed AgNPs or silver-containing nanoparticles were adsorbed onto the flocs. Finally, natural water samples were used to validate AgNP removal by coagulation. This study suggests that in the case of release of AgNPs into the source water, the traditional water treatment process, coagulation/sedimentation, can remove AgNPs and minimize the silver ion concentration under the well-optimized conditions
