Probing the roles of pH and ionic strength on electrostatic binding of tetracycline by dissolved organic matters: Reevaluation of modified fitting model

The binding performance of dissolved organic matters (DOM) plays a critical role in the migration, diffusion and removal of various residual pollutants in the natural water environment. In the current study, four typical DOMs (including bovine serum proteins BSA (proteins), sodium alginate SAA (poly...

In the current study, four typical DOMs (including bovine serum proteins BSA (proteins), sodium alginate SAA (polysaccharides), humic acid HA and fulvic acid FA (humus)) are selected to investigate the binding roles in zwitterionic tetracycline (TET) antibiotic under various ionic strength (IS = 0.001–0.1 M) and pH (5.0–9.0).

The higher binding capability of HA and FA is mainly attributed to their richer functional groups, lower zeta potential (HA/FA = −15.92/-13.54 mV) and the bigger molecular size (HA/FA = 24668/27750 nm).
