Key Points

  • This research examines how sulfidated nanoscale zero-valent iron (S-nZVI) activates periodate to affect bacterial inactivation and gene transfer.
  • Utilized sulfidated nanoscale zero-valent iron (S-nZVI) and periodate (PI) in various concentrations.
  • Assessed bacterial inactivation rates and conjugative gene transfer rates.
  • Analyzed the impact on antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs).
  • S-nZVI significantly enhances the effectiveness of periodate in inactivating bacteria.
  • A marked reduction in conjugative gene transfer was observed with the application of S-nZVI and PI.
  • The findings suggest potential for addressing antibiotic resistance through this chemical strategy.
