ABSTRACT
While laccase humification has an efficient capacity to convert estrogenic pollutants, the roles of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) root exudates (W-REs) in the enzymatic humification remain poorly understood. Herein, we presented the research into the effects of W-REs on 17ß-estradiol (E2) and bisphenol A (BPA) conversion in vitro laccase humification. W-REs inhibited E2 removal but promoted BPA conversion in the enzymatic humification, and the first-order kinetic constants for E2 and BPA were 0.27-0.69 and 0.28-0.55 h-1, respectively. Specialized small phenols and amino acids in W-REs were susceptible to laccase humification, resulting in increased copolymerization of estrogen and W-REs. In greenhouse hydroponics, the accumulated amounts of E2 (BPA) in the roots and shoots were estimated to be 0.87 (2.15) and 0.43 (0.51) nmol·plant-1 at day 3, respectively. By forming low- and eventually non-toxic copolymeric precipitates between estrogen and W-REs, laccase humification lowered the phytotoxicity and bioavailability of estrogen in the rhizosphere solution, consequently relieving its uptake, accumulation, and distribution in the wheat cells. This work sheds light on the roles of W-REs in regulating laccase-catalyzed estrogen humification, and gives an insight into the path of addressing organic contamination in the rhizosphere and ensuring food safety.
