Inhibition of 1, 4-dioxane on the denitrification process by altering the viability and metabolic activity of Paracoccus denitrificans

Abstract

1,4-Dioxane is an emerging pollutant, which widely exists in natural environments and poses potential risks to the living organisms. However, its effect on the denitrification process is still unknown. In this study, the effects of 1,4-dioxane on the denitrification process were therefore investigated by using Paracoccus denitrificans as the model denitrifier. The obtained results showed that the exposure of 1,4-dioxane exhibited remarkable lag or inhibition on the denitrification process, especially with high dose. In the control without 1,4-dioxane exposure, Paracoccus denitrificans showed high denitrification efficiency (98.5%). However, the efficiency decreased to 78.5, 63.9, and 9.3% with 0.50, 0.75, and 1.0% (v/v) 1,4-dioxane dose, respectively. The dose-induced inhibition of denitrification by 1,4-dioxane could be partially attributed to the negative effects on proliferation and viability of functional microorganisms by conjugating and disrupting the cell membranes. Furthermore, 1,4-dioxane caused biotoxicity to the intracellular activities of denitrifiers via disturbing carbon source utilization and interfering the key enzymes responsible for glycolysis. The decrease of microbial viability and activity inevitably resulted in the decline of key enzymes (NAR, NIR, NOR, and N2OR) closely related with denitrification process, which could be the direct reason for the decrease of denitrification performance.
