Abstract:

In order to study the changes of oxidative stress of Aspergillus flavus TL-F3 and its adsorption capacity of nano silver particles (AgNPs) under AgNPs stress, a sequential batch experiment was carried out. The effects of AgNPs on the growth, cell morphology, extracellular polymer (EPS) secretion, antioxidant enzymes and adsorption capacity of A. flavus TL-F3 were investigated. It was shown that AgNPs could inhibit the growth of A. flavus TL-F3, and the inhibitory effects were positively correlated with the concentration of AgNPs. Scanning electron microscope analysis showed that, the hyphae of A. flavus TL-F3 was incompletely and the surface was damaged under AgNPs stress. Compared with the control group (without AgNPs),when the AgNPs concentration was 80 mg·L-1, the EPS content of A. flavus TL-F3 rose to 237.55 mg·g-1, and malondialdehyde content, superoxide dismutase activity and reduced glutathione peptide content were significantly (P<0.05) increased, and Na+K+-ATP enzyme activity was significantly (P<0.05) decreased by 50.37%. A. flavus TL-F3 had a certain adsorption capacity for AgNPs, and when the concentration of AgNPs was 1, 30, 50, 80 mg·L-1, the adsorption rate for AgNPs could reach 68.54% and above. In conclusion, A. flavus TL-F3 could be used for removing Ag and AgNPs from contaminated water bodies.
