▎ 摘  要

The application of graphene oxide (GO) has attracted increasing concerns in the past decade regarding its environmental impacts, except for the impact of GO on a metal-contaminated soil system, due to its special properties. In the present work, the effects of GO on the migration and transformation of heavy metals and soil bacterial communities in Cd-contaminant soil were systematically evaluated. Soil samples were exposed to different doses of GO (0, 1, and 2 g kg(-1)) over 60 days. The Community Bureau of Reference (BCR) sequential extraction procedure was used to reflect the interaction between GO and Cd. Several microbial parameters, including enzyme activities and bacterial community structure, were measured to determine the impacts of GO on polluted soil microbial communities. It was shown that Cd was immobilized by GO throughout the entire exposure period. Interestingly, the structure of the bacterial community changed. The relative abundance of the major bacterial phyla (e.g., Acidobacteria and Actinobacteria) increased, which was possibly attributed to the reduced toxicity of Cd in the presence of GO. However, GO exerted an adverse influence on the relative abundance of some phyla (e.g., WD272 and TM6). The diversity of bacterial communities was slightly restricted. The functional bacteria related to carbon and the nitrogen cycling were also affected, which, consequently, may influence the nutrient cycling in soil. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
