Strategies for Solving the Issue of Malachite Green Residues in Aquatic Products: A Review

Table 4

The advantages and disadvantages of different strategies for solving the issue of malachite green (MG) residues.

Strategies	Detail description	Advantages	Disadvantages
Adsorption	By bio-wasters derived materials	Low-cost	MG-loaded adsorbents might cause seconding pollution
	By artificially synthesized materials	High efficiency	Difficult to recover the MG-loaded adsorbents
Degradation	By chemical oxidation process	High efficiency	Chemical agents might cause adverse impact to water system
	By photocatalytic oxidation process	High efficiency	Chemical agents might cause adverse impact to water system
Bio-degradation	By microbes or related enzymes	Eco-friendly	Low efficiency or sensitive to environment
Substitution	Screening and applying MG alternatives	Most efficient	Complicated process of research and development
