Integrated Biosensing and Biodegradation for Sustainable Remediation of Ciprofloxacin from Hospital Wastewater.

Key Points

• The central aim is to explore an integrated approach for detecting and degrading ciprofloxacin in hospital wastewater.
• Utilized microbial strain sp. SG01 to degrade ciprofloxacin as the sole carbon source.
• Measured drug removal over a 30-day period.
• Combined interfacial sensing with microbial degradation.
• Achieved approximately 81% removal of ciprofloxacin within 30 days.
• Demonstrated effective integration of sensing and remediation methods.
