Co-selective effect of dissolved organic matter and chlorine on the bacterial community and their antibiotic resistance in biofilm of drinking water distribution pipes
The proliferation of pathogenic bacteria and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in the biofilm of drinking water distribution pipes poses a serious threat to human health. This work adopted 15 polyethylene (PE) pipes to study the co-selective effect of dissolved organic matter (DOM) and chlorine on the bacterial community and their antibiotic resistance in biofilm. The results indicated that ozone and granular activated carbon (O3-GAC) filtration effectively removed lignins and proteins from DOM, and chlorine disinfection eliminated carbohydrate and unsaturated hydrocarbons, which both contributed to the inhibition of bacterial growth and biofilm formation. After O3-GAC and disinfection treatment, Porphyrobacter, unclassified_d_bacteria, and Sphingopyxis dominated in the biofilm bacterial community. Correspondingly, the bacterial metabolism pathways, including the phosphotransferase system, phenylalanine, tyrosine and tryptophan biosynthesis, ABC transporters, and starch and sucrose metabolism, were downregulated significantly (p < 0.05), compared to the sand filtration treatment. Under such a situation, extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) secretion was inhibited in biofilm after O3-GAC and disinfection treatment, postponing the interaction between EPS protein and pipe surface, preventing bacteria, especially pathogens, from adhering to the pipe surface to form biofilm, and restraining the spread of ARGs. This study revealed the effects of various water filtration and disinfection processes on bacterial growth, metabolism, and biofilm formation on a molecular level, and validated that the O3-GAC filtration followed by chlorine disinfection is an effective and promising pathway to control the microbial risk of drinking water.
期刊介绍:
Water Research, along with its open access companion journal Water Research X, serves as a platform for publishing original research papers covering various aspects of the science and technology related to the anthropogenic water cycle, water quality, and its management worldwide. The audience targeted by the journal comprises biologists, chemical engineers, chemists, civil engineers, environmental engineers, limnologists, and microbiologists. The scope of the journal include:
•Treatment processes for water and wastewaters (municipal, agricultural, industrial, and on-site treatment), including resource recovery and residuals management;
•Urban hydrology including sewer systems, stormwater management, and green infrastructure;
•Drinking water treatment and distribution;
•Potable and non-potable water reuse;
•Sanitation, public health, and risk assessment;
•Anaerobic digestion, solid and hazardous waste management, including source characterization and the effects and control of leachates and gaseous emissions;
•Contaminants (chemical, microbial, anthropogenic particles such as nanoparticles or microplastics) and related water quality sensing, monitoring, fate, and assessment;
•Anthropogenic impacts on inland, tidal, coastal and urban waters, focusing on surface and ground waters, and point and non-point sources of pollution;
•Environmental restoration, linked to surface water, groundwater and groundwater remediation;
•Analysis of the interfaces between sediments and water, and between water and atmosphere, focusing specifically on anthropogenic impacts;
•Mathematical modelling, systems analysis, machine learning, and beneficial use of big data related to the anthropogenic water cycle;
•Socio-economic, policy, and regulations studies.
