PG - 261-6 LID - 10.1007/s00284-010-9605-6 [doi] AB - Some fungi are able to control and remediate arsenic (As)-contaminated soil, sediment, or water. Here, we investigate potential accumulation and volatilisation of As by three fungi strains. Results indicated that the highest level of As was accumulated by Penicillin janthinellum with 39.54 mug after 10 days in the culture system amended with 2,500 mug As(V), which represents 50 mg/l As. Fusarium oxysporum showed the highest amount of volatilised As with 304.06 mug after 15 days. The As content in the treated system (filter paper + As + fungi) was significantly higher than that in the control (filter paper + As; filter paper + fungi; filter paper). Trichoderma asperellum and F. oxysporum showed superior abilities for the absorption of extracellular As and accumulation of intracellular As, which accounted for 82.2 and 63.4% of the total accumulated As, respectively. However, P. janthinellum presented an equal distribution of intracellular and extracellular As. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) analysis suggested that little impact on mycelium growth of the three fungal strains was seen after exposure to 50 mg/l As(V) for 5 days, while the growth of fungi in the control was inhibited. The present results demonstrate that P. janthinellum, F. oxysporum, and T. asperellum would be expected to tackle As-contaminated environments.
