Microcystin-RR (MC-RR), a form of microcystin with two arginine moieties, is a cyanobacterial toxin that has been detected across a wide geographic range. It is a great concern globally because of its potential liver toxicity. Herein, the abilities of BiVO₄, Ag-BiVO₄, Ag₂O-BiVO₄ and Ag/Ag₂O-BiVO₄ to photocatalytically degrade MC-RR under visible-light irradiation (λ≥420 nm) were investigated and compared. The possible degradation pathways were explored through analysis of the reaction intermediates by high-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. The results showed that the presence of Ag⁰ enhanced the photocatalytic efficiency of Ag/Ag₂O-BiVO₄ via a synergetic effect between Ag₂O and Ag⁰ at the p-n heterojunction. Moreover, the presence of Ag⁰ also greatly promoted the adsorption of MC-RR on the photocatalyst surface. Toxicological experiments on mice showed that the toxicity of MC-RR was significantly reduced after photocatalytic degradation.
