Abstract：
:Formaldehyde poses significant threats to the ecosystem and is widely used as a toxicity indicator to obtain electrical signal feedback in electroactive biofilm (EAB)-based sensors. Although many optimizations have been adopted to improve the performance of EAB to formaldehyde, nearly no studies have discussed the toxicity of formaldehyde to EAB. Here, EABs were acclimated with a stable current density (8.9 ± 0.2 A/m2) and then injected with formaldehyde. The current density decreased by 27% and 98% after the injection of 1 and 10 ppm formaldehyde, respectively, compared with that in the control. The ecotoxicity of formaldehyde caused the irreversible loss of current with 3% (1 ppm) and 81% (10 ppm). Confocal laser scanning microscopy and scanning electron microscopy results showed that the redox activity was inhibited by formaldehyde, and the number of dead/broken cells increased from 2% to 40% (1 ppm) and 91% (10 ppm). The contents of the total protein and extracellular polymer substances decreased by more than 28% (1 ppm) and 75% (10 ppm) because of the cleavage reaction caused by formaldehyde. Bacterial community analysis showed that the proportion of Geobacter decreased from 81% to 53% (1 ppm) and 24% (10 ppm). As a result, the current production was significantly impaired, and the irreversible loss increased. Toxicological analysis demonstrated that formaldehyde disturbed the physiological indices of cells, thereby inducing apoptosis. These findings fill the gap of ecotoxicology of toxicants to EAB in a bioelectrochemical system.
