Abstract
Imazamox (IMX), a chiral herbicide used in cereals and oilseed crops to control weeds, is commonly sold as a racemic mixture. Its enantiomers, being chiral compounds, may exhibit unique properties when exposed to chiral environments. While IMX enantiomers have been reported to degrade differently in soil and be toxic to some species, their effects on human systems remain poorly understood. This study utilized Caco-2 (human colon adenocarcinoma cell line) cells to assess the in vitro permeability of a racemic mixture of IMX and its isolated enantiomers. Additionally, the study aimed to evaluate whether the metabolite imazamox-O-desmethyl (IMX-D) forms during the permeability process. An enantioselective chromatographic method was developed, fully validated, and the apparent permeability values were obtained. The apparent permeability of rac-IMX, (+)-IMX, and (-)-IMX was determined to be 4.15 × 10-5 , 5.78 × 10-5 , and 7.33 × 10-5 cm s-1 , respectively. These findings suggest that IMX exhibits high intestinal permeability, with an enantioselective absorption for (-)-IMX as compared to (+)-IMX. Finally, the permeability study in Caco-2 cells revealed that the metabolite IMX-D was not generated.

An Innovative Chiral UPLC-MS/MS Method for Enantioselective Determination and Dissipation in Soil of Fenpropidin Enantiomers. Molecules 2022; 27:molecules27196530. [PMID: 36235065 PMCID: PMC9572594 DOI: 10.3390/molecules27196530] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/15/2022] [Revised: 09/28/2022] [Accepted: 09/29/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
As a chiral piperidine fungicide, fenpropidin has been widely used to control plant diseases. However, there are rare studies that have investigated fenpropidin at the enantiomer level. In this study, the single-factor analysis combined with a Box-Behnken design was used to obtain the optimal enantio-separation parameters of the fenpropidin enantiomers on ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. The absolute configuration of two fenpropidin enantiomers was confirmed for the first time using electron circular dichroism and optical activity. On the Lux cellulose-3 column, S-(-)-fenpropidin flowed out before R-(+)-fenpropidin. The enantio-separation mechanism was revealed by molecular docking. A modified QuEChERS method was developed for the trace determination of the fenpropidin enantiomers in seven food and environmental substrates. The average recoveries were 71.5-106.1% with the intra-day and inter-day relative standard deviations of 0.3-8.9% and 0.5-8.0%. The method was successfully verified by enantioselective dissipation of fenpropidin in soil under the field. R-(+)-fenpropidin dissipated faster than S-(-)-fenpropidin, and the half-lives were 19.8 d and 22.4 d. This study established a brand-new effective chiral analysis method for the fenpropidin enantiomers, providing a basis for accurate residue monitoring and the risk assessment of fenpropidin.

Abstract
Enantioseparation parameters of novaluron were optimized on a Chiralpak IG-3 column by ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry via response surface methodology. The absolute configuration and elution order were identified as R-(+)-novaluron and S-(-)-novaluron by polarimetry and X-ray diffraction. A modified QuEChERS method was developed for enantioselective determination of novaluron in eight food and environmental samples. Under optimal conditions, the mean recoveries of the novaluron enantiomers in the eight matrices were 74.4-108.1% with intraday relative standard deviations (RSDs) of 0.3-9.7% and interday RSDs of 0.1-4.1%. Enantioselective dissipation was observed in tomatoes. The dissipation of S-(-)-novaluron was faster than that of R-(+)-novaluron with a half-life of 7.1 and 7.9 days, and the enantiomer fraction value changed from 0.49 to 0.53 in 21 days. An effective method for monitoring novaluron enantiomer residues in food and the environment was established for the first time and had been successfully applied to real samples. This study is of great significance for strengthening the risk assessment and supervision level of chiral pesticides.

Abstract
Imazamox (IM) is a chiral pesticide that has been widely used in agriculture. Currently, few studies have investigated the toxicity mechanisms of imazamox to aquatic macrophyte from the enantiomer level. In this study, the enantioselective effects of IM on the toxicity and physiological and biochemical system of aquatic macrophyte Lemna minor were systematically investigated. Metabolomic and transcriptomic for Lemna minor were used to identify potential mechanisms of toxicity. 7 d EC50s for racemic-, R-, and S-IM were 0.036, 0.035, and 0.203 mg/L, respectively, showing enantioselective toxicity. In addition, IM caused Lemna minor lipid peroxidation and antioxidant damage, and inhibited the activities of the target enzymes. Metabolomic and transcriptomic data indicated that R-IM interferenced differentially expressed genes and metabolites of Lemna minor which were enriched in carbon fixation during photosynthesis, glutathione metabolic pathway, pentose phosphate pathway, zeatin biosynthesis, and porphyrin and chlorophyll metabolism. S-IM affected phenylalanine metabolism, phenylpropanoid biosynthesis, zeatin biosynthesis and secondary metabolite biosynthesis. Racemic-IM influenced carbon fixation during operation, glutathione metabolic pathway, zeatin biosynthesis and pentose phosphate pathway. The results provide new insights into the enantioselective toxicity mechanisms of IM to Lemna minor, and lay the foundation for conducting environmental risk assessments.

Abstract
An efficient and novel enantioseparation method was successfully developed and validated to quantify the enantiomers of cloquintocet-mexyl in soil, millet, enoki mushroom, oilseed rape, and watermelon using a modified QuEChERS technique combined with HPLC-MS/MS. This method showed reliable performances for determining both enantiomers of cloquintocet-mexyl in all five matrices. The limits of detection and limits of quantification were in the range of 0.06-0.15 μg kg-1 and 0.2-0.5 μg kg-1, respectively. Good linearities were obtained with correlation coefficients ≥0.9954. The mean recoveries were between 84.1% and 111.5%, with relative standard deviations ranging from 1.2% to 9.8% at three spiked levels. Additionally, the study of stereoselective dissipation of cloquintocet-mexyl in soil indicated that (R)-cloquintocet-mexyl was preferentially degraded. This work is the first to describe a chiral analytical method and enantioselective behavior of cloquintocet-mexyl and provide basic data for the risk evaluation of cloquintocet-mexyl in food and environmental safety.

Abstract
The pollution of aquatic environments by microplastics and herbicides has become a global concern. This study was focused on imazamox, imazapic, and imazethapyr sorption to polypropylene microplastics in water. And the potential effects of microplastics on herbicide enantiomer degradation and distributions in water, sediment, and water-sediment microcosms were investigated. Adsorption experiment results indicated that herbicide sorption to microplastics involved both chemisorption and physical adsorption. Degradation experiment results indicated that microplastics could markedly increase herbicide persistence in water and sediment. Marked stereoselective degradation was not found for the three herbicides in water and sediment, but stereoselective degradation of imazapic in water containing microplastics was found. The water-sediment microcosms experiment results indicated that microplastics have significant effect on stereoselectivity degradation and distribution in water and water-sediment microcosms for imazapic, and have little effect on stereoselectivity behaviors of imazamox and imazethapyr in water-sediment systems. Furthermore, the microcosm experiment results also indicated that herbicides can partition between water and microplastics and that microplastics could affect herbicide persistence and distributions in aquatic environments. The present study provides new insights into the fate of chiral pollutants in aquatic environments containing microplastics, and contributes to understanding behaviors of herbicides and microplastics in aquatic environments.

Abstract
The present study summarizes the new strategies including advanced equipment and validation parameters of liquid and gas chromatography methods i.e., thin-layer chromatography (TLC), column liquid chromatography (CLC), and gas chromatography (GC) suitable for the identification and quantitative determination of different natural and synthetic bioactive compounds present in food and food products, which play an important role in human health, within the period of 2019–2021 (January). Full characteristic of some of these procedures with their validation parameters is discussed in this work. The present review confirms the vital role of HPLC methodology in combination with different detection modes i.e., HPLC-UV, HPLC-DAD, HPLC-MS, and HPLC-MS/MS for the determination of natural and synthetic bioactive molecules for different purposes i.e., to characterize the chemical composition of food as well as in the multi-residue analysis of pesticides, NSAIDs, antibiotics, steroids, and others in food and food products.

Abstract
Contamination of agricultural soil with organic contaminants is a global problem due to the risks associated with food security and ecological sustainability. Besides the use of agrochemicals, hundreds of emerging contaminants enter arable lands through polluted irrigation water. In this study, an analytical workflow based on QuEChERS extraction coupled with LC-MS/MS quantification was applied to measure 65 emerging contaminants (42 pesticides and 23 multiclass industrial chemicals) in soil and rice for the first time. The method was validated on paddy and yard soil and rice plants. A recovery efficiency ranging between 70 and 120% (RSD <20%) was achieved for more than 70% of the analytes. Then, the validated method was used to quantify target contaminants in 22 soil and 9 rice samples collected mainly from paddy fields close to the Ergene River (Turkey), which is a highly polluted river used for irrigation in the region. Pesticide residues were present in all soil samples up to 2.4 mg/kg. However, their concentrations were below their maximum residual limits in rice. Azoxystrobin, prochloraz, propiconazole, imidacloprid, and epoxiconazole were the most frequently detected pesticides. In addition, industrial pollutants such as benzyldimethyldodecylammonium and tris(2-butoxyethyl) phosphate were detected in paddy soil samples at concentrations between 0.1 and 691 μg/kg. Benzyldimethyldodecylammonium and 5-methyl-1H benzotriazole were also measured in rice at concentrations up to 0.26 and 2.13 μg/kg, respectively.

Abstract
Oxathiapiprolin is a novel chiral piperidine thiazole isooxazoline fungicide that contains a pair of enantiomers. An effective analytical method was established for the enantioselective detection of oxathiapiprolin in fruit, vegetable, and soil samples using ultraperformance liquid chromatography-tandem triple quadrupole mass spectrometry. The optimal enantioseparation was achieved on a Chiralpak IG column at 35 °C using acetonitrile and 0.1% formic acid aqueous solution (90:10, v/v) as the mobile phase. The absolute configuration of the oxathiapiprolin enantiomers was identified with the elution order of R-(-)-oxathiapiprolin and S-(+)-oxathiapiprolin by electron circular dichroism spectra. The bioactivity of R-(-)-oxathiapiprolin was 2.49 to 13.30-fold higher than that of S-(+)-oxathiapiprolin against six kinds of oomycetes. The molecular docking result illuminated the mechanism of enantioselectivity in bioactivity. The glide score (-8.00 kcal/mol) for the R-enantiomer was better with the binding site in Phytophthora capsici than the S-enantiomer (-7.50 kcal/mol). Enantioselective degradation in tomato and pepper under the field condition was investigated and indicated that R-(-)-oxathiapiprolin was preferentially degraded. The present study determines the enantioselectivity of oxathiapiprolin about enantioselective detection, bioactivity, and degradation for the first time. The R-enantiomer will be a better choice than racemic oxathiapiprolin to enhance the bioactivity and reduce the pesticide residues at a lower application rate.

Abstract
Deep eutectic solvents are versatile, green and new generation solvents that can be used during dispersive liquid-liquid micro-extraction techniques for pesticides. They have tunable physico-chemical properties that can be easily changed by varying the ratios of hydrogen bond donors and hydrogen bond acceptors in their structures. Deep eutectic solvents are non-flammable, chemically and thermally stable solvents with low vapour pressure. Thus, they have characteristics that are similar to those of ionic liquids. However, they have simpler synthetic procedures, less expensive and are more biodegradable than ionic liquids. One of the limitations of deep eutectic solvents is their toxicity to the environment but they are less toxic than ionic liquids. This paper gives a focused and comprehensive recent review on the applications of deep eutectic solvents during dispersive liquid-liquid micro-extraction of pesticides in food samples for the period starting from 2016 to 2020. Emphasis was placed on the modifications done to the deep eutectic solvent-based dispersive liquid-liquid micro-extraction techniques in order to enhance their greenness during pesticide pre-concentration in food samples. In addition, hyphenated dispersive liquid-liquid micro-extraction techniques were also reviewed and lastly, the paper outlined the challenges associated with the use of DESs during the DLLME techniques.

THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2020; 707:135476. [PMID: 31771851 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2019.135476] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/05/2019] [Revised: 10/30/2019] [Accepted: 11/09/2019] [Indexed: 06/10/2023]
Abstract
Imidazolinone herbicides are a group of chiral herbicides that are widely used to control weeds in crops. Despite their wide use, few studies on the behavior of enantiomers in terrestrial systems have been reported. In this study, the bioaccumulation of imazamox, imazapic, and imazethapyr enantiomers in earthworm and their degradation in soils were assessed using earthworm-soil microcosms. The bioaccumulation of the three herbicides in earthworm was not significantly enantioselective. Imazamox and imazethapyr did not significant stereoselective degradation in soil (p > 0.05), while the enantioselectivity of the degradation of imazapic was significant (p < 0.05). Furthermore, biota to soil accumulation factor (BSAF) values were also calculated for three herbicides. Relationships between BSAF values and organic matter content of soil and log KOW of herbicides were investigated. The BSAFs values were negatively correlated with the log KOW of herbicides, and were positively correlated with organic matter content of soil in earthworm-soil microcosms. These relationships indicated that chemical hydrophobicity (Kow) and organic matter content of soil were good predictors to estimate the bioavailability of imidazolinone herbicides to earthworm.
