Abstract
Triflumezopyrim (TMP), a mesoionic insecticide, is commonly used for controlling planthoppers in rice. However, the relationship between the TMP residue and toxicity against brown planthoppers (BPHs) has not been studied in detail. We are reporting the dissipation of TMP from rice plant and soil under field conditions. The median lethal dose and median lethal concentration were 0.036 ng per insect and 0.525 mg L-1, respectively. TMP at recommended dose (25 g a.i. ha-1) recorded 1.25 live BPH per hill as against 25.5 per hill in control at 14 days after treatment. TMP was considered to be harmless to the natural enemies, namely, Cyrtorhinus lividipennis and Lycosa pseudoannulata in the rice ecosystem. The residue of TMP from rice plant and soil was estimated using the QuEChERS method using three different doses (12.5, 25, and 50 g a.i. ha-1). The limit of quantitation (LOQ) of TMP in plant and soil was 5 µg kg-1 and 1 µg kg-1, respectively. The maximum content of TMP in soil was less than 1% that of plant content on day 1. The dissipation pattern of TMP both from plant and soil was better explained by the first-order double-exponential decay model (FODED) as compared to the first-order kinetic model. Overall, the half-lives of TMP were ranged from 2.21 to 3.02 days in plant tissues and 3.78 to 4.79 days in soil as per the FODED model. Based on the persistence and toxicity of TMP, we could conclude that TMP will be effective against BPH up to 7-10 days after application. Triflumezopyrim with reasonable persistence and high efficacy could be recommended as an alternate pesticide in BPH management in rice.

Sorption of diethyl phthalate and cadmium by pig carcass and green waste-derived biochars under single and binary systems. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2021; 193:110594. [PMID: 33307079 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2020.110594] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/07/2020] [Revised: 11/07/2020] [Accepted: 12/03/2020] [Indexed: 06/12/2023]
Abstract
Potentially toxic elements (PTEs) and phthalic acid esters (PAEs) often coexist in contaminated soils. Their co-existence may affect the mutual sorption behavior, and thereby influence their bioavailability and fate in soils. To our best knowledge, the impacts of plant-and animal-derived biochar on the competitive sorption-desorption of PTEs and PAEs in soils with different organic carbon content have not been studied up to date. Therefore, in this study, batch sorption-desorption experiments were conducted to investigate the influence of biochars derived from pig carcass and Platanus orientalis branches on the mono- and competitive sorption of cadmium (Cd2+) and diethyl phthalate (DEP) in soils with high (HS) and low (LS) organic carbon content. The DEP sorption was well described by Freundlich isotherm model, while Cd2+ sorption fitted better with the Langmuir isotherm model. Application of both biochars enhanced soil sorption of DEP, which increased as the application doses increased. The HS showed a stronger affinity to both DEP and Cd2+ than the LS. In the LS, the pig carcass biochar (PB) addition was more effective to increase the sorption capacity of Cd2+ and DEP and to reduce their desorption than woody biochar (WB) treatments. Moreover, the co-existing of Cd2+ could reduce the sorption of DEP, especially in the LS. The presence of DEP enhanced Cd2+ sorption in LS treated by both biochars, but the sorption of Cd2+ was suppressed with DEP addition in the PB-amended HS. In conclusion, the soil sorption capacity of DEP and Cd2+ was affected by biochar type, application dose and soil organic carbon content. The reciprocal effect between DEP and Cd2+ was also a crucial factor influencing their sorption/desorption by biochar. Therefore, PB and WB, especially PB, can be used for metal/DEP immobilization due to enhanced sorption. This approach is applicable for future remediation of soils contaminated by PTEs and PAEs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chlorantraniliprole (CAP) is widely used in agriculture and forestry to prevent and control pests. The effects of environmental CAP residue on non-target insect metamorphosis have not been reported. Our research aimed to investigate the sublethal effect of CAP on larva-pupa transformation in silkworm, and explore the mechanism of sublethal CAP exposure-mediated pupation metamorphosis defects. RESULT Sublethal CAP exposure affected the growth and development of silkworm larvae and caused defects in pupation metamorphosis. After CAP exposure, formation the of prepupa procuticle, ecdysial membrane and new epidermis was inhibited. Also, the level of 20-hydroxyecdysone (20E) and mRNA levels of the 20E signaling pathway-related genes EcR, USP, E74, E75 and Ftz-f1 were significantly reduced. Moreover, genes involved in chitin synthesis, such as ChsA, CDA1 and CDA2, were downregulated. Injection of 20E led to the upregulation of chitin synthesis-related genes and increased formation of new epidermis in CAP-treated silkworm. However, injection of 20E failed to prevent downregulation of Ftz-f1 and the defects in pupation metamorphosis. CONCLUSION Our results suggested that 20E is a target hormone of CAP exposure-mediated epidermis formation phenotype. Ftz-f1 was silenced by CAP and might be a direct target gene of sublethal CAP exposure. Our study provided new evidence of the effects of sublethal CAP exposure on insect development and metamorphosis. © 2020 Society of Chemical Industry.

Electrochemical method to study the environmental behavior of Glyphosate on volcanic soils: Proposal of adsorption-desorption and transport mechanisms. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2019; 379:120746.

Abstract
Glyphosate is used extensively worldwide, but current evidence suggests detrimental effects on the environment, pollinators, and human health. Glyphosate adsorption kinetics and adsorption/desorption were studied through batch sorption experiments in ten typical volcanic ash-derived soils from Andisol and Ultisol orders. Two kinetic models were used to fit the experimental data: i. Models that allowed establishment of principally kinetic parameters and modeling of the adsorption process, and ii. Models described solute transport mechanisms commonly used for remediation purposes. Adsorption kinetic data were best fitted by the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and Two-Site Nonequilibrium model. These models suggest that mechanisms are complex due to rapid surface adsorption in ultisols with mass transfer controlling adsorption kinetics across the boundary layer, as indicated by the highhand lowt1/2values. High intraparticle diffusion into macropores and micropores was observed for Andisols. The Freundlich model accurately represented adsorption equilibrium data in all cases (R2 > 0.9580) with comparatively higher adsorption capacity on Andisols. Kf values (2.50-52.28 μg1-1/n mL1/n g-1) and hysteresis were significant in all studied soils. Taken together, these data suggest that Glyphosate may be adsorbed more on Andisol soils in comparison to Ultisols.

Abstract
Potassium tungstophosphate is supported on BEA zeolite by in situ synthesis for glyphosate removal. Spectroscopic measurements identified hydrogen bonding as a primal interaction of potassium salt and BEA zeolite. Composites are evaluated for glyphosate herbicide removal and adsorption process is analyzed using two isotherm models. Obtained adsorption capacities for all prepared composites lay between 45.2 and 92.2 mg of glyphosate per gram of investigated composite. Suspension acidity revealed that glyphosate is adsorbed mainly in the zwitter-ion form at the composite surface while the amount of potassium salt in the composites is crucial for the adsorption application. Exceptional adsorption behavior is postulated to come from a high degree of homogeneity among surface active sites which is confirmed by different experimental methods. Temperature programmed desorption of glyphosate coupled with mass spectrometer detected one broad, high-temperature peak which represents overlapped desorption processes from active sights of similar strength. Introduction of potassium tungstophosphate affects active sites present in BEA zeolite for glyphosate desorption and significantly increases the amount of adsorbed pesticide in comparison to BEA zeolite. Supporting of potassium tungstophosphate on BEA zeolite via in situ synthesis procedure enables the formation of highly efficient adsorbents and revealed their perspective environmental application.

Abstract
We measured the occurrence and seasonal variations of glyphosate and its metabolite, aminomethylphosphonic acid (AMPA), in different environmental compartments within the limits of an agricultural basin. This topic is of high relevance since glyphosate is the most applied pesticide in agricultural systems worldwide. We were able to quantify the seasonal variations of glyphosate that result mainly from endo-drift inputs, that is, from direct spraying either onto genetically modified (GM) crops (i.e., soybean and maize) or onto weeds in no-till practices. We found that both glyphosate and AMPA accumulate in soil, but the metabolite accumulates to a greater extent due to its higher persistence. Knowing that glyphosate and AMPA were present in soils (> 93% of detection for both compounds), we aimed to study the dispersion to other environmental compartments (surface water, stream sediments, and groundwater), in order to establish the degree of non-point source pollution. Also, we assessed the relationship between the water-table depth and glyphosate and AMPA levels in groundwater. All of the studied compartments had variable levels of glyphosate and AMPA. The highest frequency of detections was found in the stream sediments samples (glyphosate 95%, AMPA 100%), followed by surface water (glyphosate 28%, AMPA 50%) and then groundwater (glyphosate 24%, AMPA 33%). Despite glyphosate being considered a molecule with low vertical mobility in soils, we found that its detection in groundwater was strongly associated with the month where glyphosate concentration in soil was the highest. However, we did not find a direct relation between groundwater table depth and glyphosate or AMPA detections. This is the first simultaneous study of glyphosate and AMPA seasonal variations in soil, groundwater, surface water, and sediments within a rural basin.

Abstract
Glyphosate is the most widely used herbicide worldwide and is now frequently detected in surface waters of agricultural regions, notably in Quebec (Canada). Numerous legislations require vegetated riparian buffer strips (RBS) along agricultural streams. Quebec policy requires 3-meter-wide RBS. The present study evaluates the efficiency of narrow herbaceous and low- or high-density (33,333 and 55,556stumps/ha) willow, Salix miyabeana 'SX64', RBS, to minimize leaching of glyphosate and its main degradation product (AMPA) from agricultural fields to streams. Our study compared triplicate treatments of herbaceous and willow-planted RBS located in an organic-rich soil at Boisbriand (BB) and in a mineral soil at Saint-Roch-de-l'Achigan (SR). Runoff water was sampled with surface collectors and interstitial water was collected with 35cm or 70cm tension lysimeters. Potential efficiency of the RBS is reported as the percent reduction between edge-of-field and edge-of-stream concentrations in runoff and interstitial waters. Neither glyphosate nor AMPA in runoff were significantly intercepted by the RBS. After field herbicide spraying, glyphosate measured in SR surface soils (0-20cm) was on average 210μg·kg-1 dw (range from undetected to ≤317μg·kg-1 dw). Glyphosate was found to be persistent and its infiltration towards groundwater may be enhanced by the RBS. Contrary to runoff trends, soil glyphosate was significantly less concentrated on the SR edge-of-stream compared to edge-of-field (27-54% potential efficiency). The potential efficiency of herbaceous, low- and high-density willow RBS were undifferentiated.

Abstract
Glyphosate (GPS) is an herbicide currently used on olive crops in Spain, and can be transported to the nearby reservoirs currently used for human consumption. The purpose of this work was to study the behaviour and environmental fate of GPS in water and sediments of the Vibora Reservoir, its tributary river, and the surrounding agricultural soils to assess the risk of water pollution of this reservoir. The adsorption of GPS by different matrices was as follows: heading of the reservoir sediment (Cabecera)>tail sediment (Cola)>soils>Vibora sediment. The highest amount of oxides (especially Fe oxides) was observed in sediments from Cabecera and Cola whereas the lowest values were recorded on Vibora sediment. Results indicate that the highest GPS adsorption is due to the amorphous oxides and the edge sites of the clay minerals. Glyphosate adsorption increased with decreasing pH from 8 to 7. The desorption percentage of GPS from the four soils studied ranged only from 0.40 to 1.22%. Desorption was almost irreversible for Cabecera and Cola sediments, with values between 0 and 1.1%. Conversely, Vibora sediment presented about 20% desorption, probably due to its coarse texture and lower levels of amorphous oxides. Hockey-stick first-order kinetics was the best descriptor for water glyphosate dissipation at the Cabecera and Cola locations, and simple first-order kinetic for the water from the tributary Vibora River. The half-lives (DT50) were between 6.3 and 11.0days. The rapid degradation of GPS in surface waters and its practically irreversible sorption on these soils and sediments implies that GPS use in similar agricultural areas is of very low environmental risk. This manuscript also outlines the importance of the presence of photo-sensitizers in waters in the degradation routes of GPS in reservoirs.

Abstract
Glyphosate has been the most widely used herbicide during the past three decades. The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) classifies glyphosate as 'practically non-toxic and not an irritant' under the acute toxicity classification system. This classification is based primarily on toxicity data and due to its unique mode of action via a biochemical pathway that only exists in a small number of organisms that utilise the shikimic acid pathway to produce amino acids, most of which are green plants. This classification is supported by the majority of scientific literature on the toxic effects of glyphosate. However, in 2005, the Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO) reported that glyphosate and its major metabolite, aminomethylphosphonic acid (AMPA), are of potential toxicological concern, mainly as a result of accumulation of residues in the food chain. The FAO further states that the dietary risk of glyphosate and AMPA is unlikely if the maximum daily intake of 1 mg kg(-1) body weight (bw) is not exceeded. Research has now established that glyphosate can persist in the environment, and therefore, assessments of the health risks associated with glyphosate are more complicated than suggested by acute toxicity data that relate primarily to accidental high-rate exposure. We have used recent literature to assess the possible risks associated with the presence of glyphosate residues in food and the environment.

Abstract
LH-2010A is a newly developed fungicide with novel mode of action in the treatment of cucurbit downy mildew. Dissipation kinetics and residue levels of LH-2010A in cucumber were investigated using a QuEChERS method with GC-ECD. Field trials were constructed at three different sites in China in 2013 and 2014. The average recoveries of LH-2010A in fortified samples were between 94.0 and 106.2% for cucumber and between 84.4% and 98.7% for soil, with relative standard deviations within 3%. The dissipation rate of LH-2010A residue was evaluated assuming a pseudo first-order kinetics. The half-lives of LH-2010A were 2.8-4.2 days and 6.3-9.4 days in cucumber and soil samples, respectively. The terminal residues in cucumber were 0.077-0.207 mg/kg and 0.109-0.307 mg/kg on the first day after spray at the recommended dosage and 1.5 times of the recommended dosage, respectively. Using this rapid and sensitive method, we determined the dissipation kinetics and residue level of HL-2010A in cucumber. The suggested MRL value of HL-2010A in cucumber is 0.5 mg/kg. The research would provide guidance for proper and safe use of this newly developed fungicide in cucumber in greenhouse ecosystems.

Abstract
Fe/Al drinking water treatment residuals (WTRs), ubiquitous and non-hazardous by-products of drinking water purification, are cost-effective adsorbents for glyphosate. Given that repeated glyphosate applications could significantly decrease glyphosate retention by soils and that the adsorbed glyphosate is potentially mobile, high sorption capacity and stability of glyphosate in agricultural soils are needed to prevent pollution of water by glyphosate. Therefore, we investigated the feasibility of reusing Fe/Al WTR as a soil amendment to enhance the retention capacity of glyphosate in two agricultural soils. The results of batch experiments showed that the Fe/Al WTR amendment significantly enhanced the glyphosate sorption capacity of both soils (p<0.001). Up to 30% of the previously adsorbed glyphosate desorbed from the non-amended soils, and the Fe/Al WTR amendment effectively decreased the proportion of glyphosate desorbed. Fractionation analyses further demonstrated that glyphosate adsorbed to non-amended soils was primarily retained in the readily labile fraction (NaHCO3-glyphosate). The WTR amendment significantly increased the relative proportion of the moderately labile fraction (HCl-glyphosate) and concomitantly reduced that of the NaHCO3-glyphosate, hence reducing the potential for the release of soil-adsorbed glyphosate into the aqueous phase. Furthermore, Fe/Al WTR amendment minimized the inhibitory effect of increasing solution pH on glyphosate sorption by soils and mitigated the effects of increasing solution ionic strength. The present results indicate that Fe/Al WTR is suitable for use as a soil amendment to prevent glyphosate pollution of aquatic ecosystems by enhancing the glyphosate retention capacity in soils.

Sorption-desorption behavior of pesticides and their degradation products in volcanic and nonvolcanic soils: interpretation of interactions through two-way principal component analysis.

Abstract
Sorption-desorption behavior of six pesticides and some degradation products was assessed on seven agricultural volcanic and nonvolcanic soils belonging to Andisol, Ultisol, Mollisol, and Alfisol orders. The global interpretation of sorption data was performed by principal component analysis. Results showed exceptionally high sorption of glyphosate and aminomethylphosphonic acid (AMPA) (the breakdown product) on volcanic soils (K f > 1500 μg(1 - 1 / n) mL(1 / n) g(-1)) related mainly to contents of amorphous aluminum oxides (Andisols) and crystalline minerals (Ultisols). The lower sorption on nonvolcanic soils was associated to low organic matter contents and lack of significant minerals. Metsulfuron-methyl and 3,5,6-trichloro-2-pyridinol (metabolite of chlorpyrifos) were weakly to substantially sorbed on Andisols and Ultisols, but the first one was not sorbed at pH > 6.4, including nonvolcanic soils. The metabolite of diazinon, 2-isopropyl-4-methyl-6-hydroxypyrimidine, was weakly sorbed on all soils (K f = 0.4 to 3.6 μg(1 - 1 / n) mL(1 / n) g(-1)). Acidic compounds would be lixiviated in Mollisols and Alfisols, but they could leach also in Andisols and Ultisols if they reach greater depths. Atrazine and deethylatrazine sorption was related to organic carbon content; therefore, they were weakly retained on nonvolcanic soils (K f = 0.7 to 2.2 μg(1 - 1 / n) mL(1 / n) g(-1)). Chlorpyrifos was highly sorbed on all soils reaching K OC values of >8000. Finally, the significant retention of chlorothalonil and diazinon on Mollisols and Alfisols in spite of their low OC contents showed the contribution of clay minerals in the sorption process.

Abstract
The assessment of the environmental fate of glyphosate and its degradation product (aminomethylphosphonic acid) is of great interest given the widespread use of the herbicide. Studies of adsorption-desorption and transport processes in soils require analytical methods with sensitivity, accuracy, and precision suitable for determining the analytes in aqueous equilibrium solutions of varied complexity. In this work, the effect of factors on the yield of the derivatization of both compounds with 9-fluorenylmethyl chloroformate for applying in aqueous solutions derived from soils was evaluated through factorial experimental designs. Interference effects coming from background electrolytes and soil matrices were established. The whole method had a linear response up to 640 ng/mL (R(2) > 0.999) under optimized conditions for high-performance liquid chromatography with fluorescence detection. Limits of detection were 0.6 and 0.4 ng/mL for glyphosate and aminomethylphosphonic acid, respectively. The relative standard deviation was 4.4% for glyphosate (20 ng/mL) and 5.9% for aminomethylphosphonic acid (10 ng/mL). Adsorption of compounds on four different soils was assessed. Isotherm data fitted well the Freundlich model (R(2) > 0.97). Kf constants varied between 93 ± 3.1 and 2045 ± 157 for glyphosate and between 99 ± 4.1 and 1517 ± 56 (μg(1-1/) (n) mL(1/) (n) ( ) g(-1) ) for aminomethylphosphonic acid, showing the broad range of applicability of the proposed method.

Abstract
Glyphosate [N-(phosphonomethyl) glycine] is a broad spectrum, post emergent herbicide and is among the most widely used agricultural chemicals globally. Initially developed to control the growth of weed species in agriculture, this herbicide also plays an important role in both modern silviculture and domestic weed control. The creation of glyphosate tolerant crop species has significantly increased the demand and use of this herbicide and has also increased the risk of exposure to non-target species. Commercially available glyphosate-based herbicides are comprised of multiple, often proprietary, constituents, each with a unique level of toxicity. Surfactants used to increase herbicide efficacy have been identified in some studies as the chemicals responsible for toxicity of glyphosate-based herbicides to non-target species, yet they are often difficult to chemically identify. Most glyphosate-based herbicides are not approved for use in the aquatic environment; however, measurable quantities of the active ingredient and surfactants are detected in surface waters, giving them the potential to alter the physiology of aquatic organisms. Acute toxicity is highly species dependant across all taxa, with toxicity depending on the timing, magnitude, and route of exposure. The toxicity of glyphosate to amphibians has been a major focus of recent research, which has suggested increased sensitivity compared with other vertebrates due to their life history traits and reliance on both the aquatic and terrestrial environments. This review is designed to update previous reviews of glyphosate-based herbicide toxicity, with a focus on recent studies of the aquatic toxicity of this class of chemicals.

Abstract
A simple and reliable analytical method was developed to detect cyantraniliprole (HGW86) and its metabolite J9Z38 in rice straw, paddy water, brown rice, and paddy soil. The fate of cyantraniliprole and its metabolite J9Z38 in rice field ecosystem was also studied. The target compounds were extracted using acetonitrile, cleaned up on silicagel or strong anion exchange column, and analyzed by ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. The average recoveries of cyantraniliprole and J9Z38 in rice straw, paddy water, brown rice, and paddy soil ranged from 79.0% to 108.6%, with relative standard deviations of 1.1-10.6%. The limits of quantification of cyantraniliprole and J9Z38 were 18 and 39μgkg(-1) for rice straw, 2.8 and 5.0μgkg(-1) for paddy water, 4.3 and 6.3μgkg(-1) for brown rice, and 3.9 and 5.3μgkg(-1) for paddy soil. The trial results showed that the half-lives of cyantraniliprole were 3.2, 4.4, and 6.3d in rice straw and 4.9, 2.0, and 6.2d in paddy water in Zhejiang, Hunan, and Shandong, respectively. The respective final residues of cyantraniliprole and J9Z38 in brown rice were lower than 0.05 and 0.02mgkg(-1) after 14d of pre-harvest interval. The maximum residue limit of cyantraniliprole at 0.1mgkg(-1) and dosage of 100g a.i.hm(-2), which could be considered safe to human beings and animals, were recommended.

Abstract
The degradation behavior of metaflumizone was studied in a rice field ecosystem, and a simple and reliable analytical method was developed for determination of metaflumizone in soil, rice straw, paddy water and brown rice. Metaflumizone residues were extracted from samples with acetonitrile. The extract was cleaned up with QuEChERS (Quick, Easy, Cheap, Effective, Rugged and Safe) method, and determined by liquid chromatography electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (LC-ESI-MS/MS). The average recoveries of metaflumizone were 75.2-105.1 percent from soil, rice straw, paddy water and brown rice. The relative standard deviations were less than 15 percent. The limits of quantitation (LOQs) of metaflumizone were 3.0μg/L for paddy water and 3.0μg/kg for other samples. The results of the kinetic study of metaflumizone residue showed that metaflumizone degradation in soil, water and rice straw coincided with C=0.08564e(-0.0505t), C=0.04984e(-0.1982t), C=2.2572e(-0.1533t), respectively; the half-lives were about 13.7d, 3.5d, and 4.5d, respectively. The final residues of metaflumizone on brown rice were lower than maximum residue limit (MRL) of 0.05mg/kg after 28d Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI) at the recommended dosage. Therefore, a dosage of 450mLa.i.ha(-1) with 28 days before harvest was recommended, which could be considered as safe to human beings and animals.

Abstract
Many of organophosphorous insecticides are chiral compounds. In this study, the enantioselective effects of organophosphate insecticide methamidophos on the coelomocytes lysosomal membrane stability of earthworm Eisenia fetida were studied: (1) The enantiomers of methamidophos were absolutely separated by high-performance liquid chromatography with a commercial chiral column; (2) The neutral red retention assay was used to judge the lysosomal membrane stability. The results showed that with the concentration increasing, lysosomal membranes have been significantly destroyed by individual stereoisomers and racemate of methamidophos. The neutral red retention times were significantly descended from 76.88 to 29.78 min. Both (+)- and (-)-methamidophos showed more prone to destroy the integrity of the lysosomal membrane than the racemate. However, the different effect between stereoisomers is slight.

Abstract
The fate of chlorantraniliprole was studied in rice field ecosystem, and a simple and reliable analytical method was developed for determination of chlorantraniliprole in soil, rice straw, paddy water and brown rice. Chlorantraniliprole residues were extracted from samples with acetonitrile. The extract was cleaned up with QuEChERS (Quick, Easy, Cheap, Effective, Rugged and Safe) method, and determined by high-performance liquid chromatography electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (LC-ESI-MS/MS). The average recoveries were 76.9-82.4% from soil, 83.6-89.3% from rice straw, 95.2-103.1% from paddy water and 84.9-87.7% from brown rice. The relative standard deviation was less than 15%. The limits of detection (LODs) of chlorantraniliprole calculated as a sample concentration (S/N ratio of 3) were 0.012 μg L(-1) for paddy water, 0.15 μg kg(-1) for soil, brown rice and rice straw. The results of the kinetics study of chlorantraniliprole residue showed that chlorantraniliprole degradation in soil, water and rice straw coincided with C=0.01939e(-0.0434t), C=0.01425e(-0.8111t), and C=1.171e(-0.198t), respectively; the half-lives were about 16.0 d, 0.85 d and 3.50 d, respectively. The degradation rate of chlorantraniliprole in water was the fastest, followed by rice straw. The final residues of chlorantraniliprole on brown rice were lower than maximum residue limit (MRL) of 0.02 mg kg(-1) after 14 d Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI). Therefore, a dosage of 150 mL a.i.hm(-2) was recommended, which could be considered as safe to human beings and animals.

The risk assessment of groundwater pollution by pesticides may be based on pesticide sorption and biodegradation kinetic parameters estimated with inverse modeling of datasets from either batch or continuous flow soil column experiments. In the present work, a chemical non-equilibrium and non-linear 2-site sorption model is incorporated into solute transport models to invert the datasets of batch and soil column experiments, and estimate the kinetic sorption parameters for two pesticides: N-phosphonomethyl glycine (glyphosate) and 2,4-dichlorophenoxy-acetic acid (2,4-D). When coupling the 2-site sorption model with the 2-region transport model, except of the kinetic sorption parameters, the soil column datasets enable us to estimate the mass-transfer coefficients associated with solute diffusion between mobile and immobile regions. In order to improve the reliability of models and kinetic parameter values, a stepwise strategy that combines batch and continuous flow tests with adequate true-to-the mechanism analytical of numerical models, and decouples the kinetics of purely reactive steps of sorption from physical mass-transfer processes is required.

Abstract
Cyclic voltammetry (CV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) were employed to study methamidophos (MAP) and humic acid (HM) specifically adsorbed onto Pt and PtO films in pH-7.0 universal buffer. The approach was found to be sufficiently selective for use in studies involving adsorption of species in environmental systems (e.g., soil minerals), typically evaluated by batch experiments and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) or gas chromatography (GC). The proposed method allowed quantification of active hydrogen adsorption sites blocked by HM, both when this compound is adsorbed alone or co-adsorbed with MAP. At higher amounts of MAP in the adsorption solution, the compound was co-adsorbed more effectively than HM (kept at constant concentration). In the case of sequential specific adsorption, the first compound adsorbed typically predominates over the second. EIS was more effective for determining the number of blocked active sites on Pt than CV, which was superior for PtO films.

Abstract
The fate of pymetrozine was studied in rice field ecosystem, and a simple and reliable analytical method for determination of pymetrozine in soil, rice straw, paddy water and brown rice was developed. Pymetrozine residues were extracted from samples, cleaned up by solid phase extraction (SPE) and then determined by high-performance liquid chromatography electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (LC-ESI-MS-MS). The average recovery was 81.2-88.1% from soil, 83.4-88.6% from rice straw, 87.3-94.1% from paddy water and 82.9-85.3% from brown rice. The relative standard deviation (RSD) was less than 15%. The limits of detection (LODs) of pymetrozine calculated as a sample concentration were 0.0003 mg kg(-1) (mg L(-1)) for soil and paddy water, 0.001 mg kg(-1) for brown rice and rice straw. The results of kinetics study of pymetrozine residue showed that pymetrozine degradation in water, soil, and rice straw coincided with C=0.194e(-0.986t), C=0.044e(-0.099t), and C=0.988e(-0.780t), respectively; the half-lives were about 0.70 d, 7.0 d and 0.89 d, respectively. The degradation rate of pymetrozine in water was the fastest, followed by rice straw. The highest final pymetrozine residues in brown rice were 0.01 mg kg(-1), which was lower than the EU's upper limit of 0.02 mg kg(-1) in rice. Therefore, a dosage of 300-600 g a.i.hm(-2) was recommended, which could be considered as safe to human beings and animals.

Abstract
The widespread use of pesticides results in a growing contamination of the aquatic environment. The effects of (1) a simple mixture of a glyphosate-based formulation and AMPA (Aminomethylphosphonic acid--a primary metabolite of glyphosate) and of (2) a more complex mixture of herbicides (glyphosate/AMPA/mecoprop/acetochlor/2,4D) were explored on the molecular and physiological responses of the European flounder Platichthys flesus, considering a long-term and environmentally realistic contamination. Molecular responses were identified using suppression subtractive hybridization on liver samples: the level of gene transcription was significantly different between contaminated fishes vs control ones for 532 sequences, after a 62-day contamination. Among them, 222 sequences were identified by homology with data-based sequences; they encoded several metabolic pathways including: methionine and lipid metabolism, immunity, protein regulation, coagulation and energetic metabolism. Expression pattern of nine transcripts in the liver was confirmed by real-time PCR. The molecular study underlined that potential markers of liver injury were expressed for both mixtures, in particular betaine homocysteine methyl transferase and chemotaxin. Physiological responses were analysed considering blood parameters and condition factor; after the two months contamination period; no significant physiological difference was detected between contaminated and control fish.

Abstract
SYP-1924 is a new kind of herbicide developed by Shenyang Scicncreat Chemicals. This study has been carried out to investigate the environmental fate of SYP-1924 in rice-field system. An analytical method utilizing high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with ultraviolet (UV) detection was described for the determination of new kind of herbicide SYP-1924 in rice, rice straw, soil and water. The dissipation of SYP-1924 in soil, water and rice straw was determined using the proposed method. The results showed that dissipation of SYP-1924 in rice straw and water were found to be very faster with half-life time shorter than 1.5 days. The half-life value of SYP-1924 was observed to be 4.5 days in soil. The ultimate residues of SYP-1924 in rice were found to be below the limits of the detection at level of recommended and 1.5 times recommended dosage with an interval date of 70 days.

Abstract
Soil organic matter (SOM) is generally believed not to influence the sorption of glyphosate in soil. To get a closer look on the dynamics between glyphosate and SOM, we used three approaches: I. Sorption studies with seven purified soil humic fractions showed that these could sorb glyphosate and that the aromatic content, possibly phenolic groups, seems to aid the sorption. II. Sorption studies with six whole soils and with SOM removed showed that several soil parameters including SOM are responsible for the strong sorption of glyphosate in soils. III. After an 80 day fate experiment, approximately 40% of the added glyphosate was associated with the humic and fulvic acid fractions in the sandy soils, while this was the case for only approximately 10% of the added glyphosate in the clayey soils. Glyphosate sorbed to humic substances in the natural soils seemed to be easier desorbed than glyphosate sorbed to amorphous Fe/Al-oxides.

Abstract
Glyphosate (N-phosphonometylglycine) is widely used due to its broad spectrum of activity and nonselective mode of action. In Chile it is the most used herbicide, but its adsorption behavior in the abundant and widespread variable charge soils is not well understood. In this study, three volcanic ash-derived soils were selected, including Andisols (Nueva Braunau and Diguillin) and Ultisols (Collipulli), to evaluate the adsorption kinetics, equilibrium isotherms, and the effect of pH in glyphosate adsorption. The influence of glyphosate on soil phosphorus retention was also studied. Glyphosate was rapidly and strongly adsorbed on the selected soils, and adsorption isotherms were well described by the Freundlich relationship with strong nonlinearity (n(fads) < 0.5). The n(fads) values were consistently higher than n(fdes) values, suggesting strong hysteresis. Adsorption (K(ads)) increased strongly when pH decreased. The presence of glyphosate (3200 mug mL(-1)) changed the adsorption behavior of phosphate at its maximum adsorption capacity. Andisol soils without the addition of glyphosate had similar mean K(ads) values for Nueva Braunau (5.68) and Diguillin (7.38). Collipulli had a mean K(ads) value of 31.58. During the successive desorption steps, glyphosate at the highest level increased K(ads) values for phosphate in the Andisol soils but had little effect in the Ultisol soil. This different behavior was probably due to the irreversible occupation of some adsorption sites by glyphosate in the Ultisol soil attributed to the dominant Kaolinite mineral. Results from this study suggest that in the two types of volcanic soils, different mechanisms are involved in glyphosate and phosphate adsorption and that long-term use of glyphosate may impose different effects on the retention and availability of phosphorus. Volcanic ash-derived soils have a particular environmental behavior in relation to the retention of organic contaminants, representing an environmental substrate that may become highly polluted over time due to intensive agronomic uses.

Abstract
In this paper, the photocatalytic degradation of methamidophos, an organophosphorous pesticide, was investigated in aqueous solution by using TiO(2) as a photocatalyst. The degradation was studied under different conditions such as the amount of the photocatalyst, illumination time, pH of the system, reaction temperature, initial concentration, electron acceptors, metal ions and presence of anions. The results showed that the photocatalytic degradation of methamidophos was strongly influenced by these parameters. The best conditions for the photocatalytic degradation of methamidophos were obtained. The optimum amount of the photocatalyst used is 12.0g/L. The photodegradation efficiency of methamidophos increases with the increase of the illumination time. Alkaline media are favorable for the photocatalytic degradation of methamidophos. The degradation efficiency is enhanced by increasing reaction temperature, and the photodegradation efficiency decreases with the increase in the initial concentration of methamidophos. The photodegradation efficiency of methamidophos is accelerated by adding a small amount of H(2)O(2), K(2)S(2)O(8), KBrO(3), Fe(3+) or Cu(2+). There are no obvious effects on the reactions with the addition of a small amount of Na(+), K(+), Mg(2+), Ca(2+), Zn(2+), Co(2+) and Ni(2+) or adding trace amount of SO(4)(2-), Cl(-), Br(-). The possible roles of the additives on the reactions and the possible mechanisms of effect were also discussed.

Atrazine sorption kinetics in a characterized soil: Predictive calculations. Environ. Sci. Technol. 2008, 42, 1537-1541). This was done by using equilibrium titrations forthe measurement of labile sorption capacities thetaC. The titrations were made possible by resolving total sorption into its labile and unrecovered fractions. But equilibrium was not also necessary for unrecovered fractions. The site saturation at titration plateaus defined thetaC. The first purpose of determining the stoichiometry is to permitthe use of second-order kinetics instead of unpredictive pseudo-first-order kinetics for sorption modeling. Another purpose is to replace empirical distribution coefficients such as K(D) with the law of mass action for describing equilibria as limiting states. Temperature trends and a comparison with EGME vapor deposition data from the literature indicate a control of herbicide sorption by sorbed water. A preliminary examination of limited data from different sources suggests that future research should investigate some additional correlations. ThetaC and equilibrium functions might both be influenced by soil organic matter carboxyls and carboxylate anions, as well as inorganic materials. Some disadvantages of K(D) are noted.

Abstract
Levels of glyphosate were determined in water, soil and sediment samples from a transgenic soybean cultivation area located near to tributaries streams of the Pergamino-Arrecifes system in the north of the Province of Buenos Aires, Argentina. Field work took into account both the pesticide application and the rains occurring after applications. The pesticide was analysed by HPLC-UV detection, previous derivatization with 9-fluorenylmethylchloroformate (FMOC-Cl). In addition, SoilFug multimedia model was used to analyse the environmental distribution of the pesticides. In the field, levels of glyphosate in waters ranged from 0.10 to 0.70 mg/L, while in sediments and soils values were between 0.5 and 5.0 mg/Kg. Temporal variation of glyphosate levels depended directly on the time of application and the rain events. The results obtained from the application of the model are in accordance with the values found in the field.

Abstract
Soil column experiments are used to investigate the fate of three pesticides of high, intermediate, and low solubility in groundwater: N- phosphonomethyl glycine (glyphosate); O,O-diethyl-S-[(ethylthio)methyl]phosphorodithioate (phorate); (2,4-dichlorophenoxy)acetic acid (2,4-D). Feed solutions are prepared by adding each pesticide (100 mg/L glyphosate, 50 micro g/L phorate, 50 mg/L 2,4-D) along with conservative tracer, KBr, in synthetic groundwater. The concentration of the pesticides in effluents is detected by ion chromatography (glyphosate, 2,4-D) and GC-FID (phorate). The Br(-) breakthrough curves are employed to estimate the dispersion coefficient and mean pore velocity in each column. Solute transport and reactive models accounting for equilibrium/non-equilibrium sorption and biodegradation are coupled with inverse modeling numerical codes to estimate the kinetic parameters for all pesticides.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Conservation practices often associated with glyphosate-resistant crops, e.g. limited tillage and crop cover, improve soil conditions, but only limited research has evaluated their effects on soil in combination with glyphosate-resistant crops. It is assumed that conservation practices have similar benefits to soil whether or not glyphosate-resistant crops are used. This paper reviews the impact on soil of conservation practices and glyphosate-resistant crops, and presents data from a Mississippi field trial comparing glyphosate-resistant and non-glyphosate-resistant maize (Zea mays L.) and cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) under limited tillage management. RESULTS Results from the reduced-tillage study indicate differences in soil biological and chemical properties owing to glyphosate-resistant crops. Under continuous glyphosate-resistant maize, soils maintained greater soil organic carbon and nitrogen as compared with continuous non-glyphosate-resistant maize, but no differences were measured in continuous cotton or in cotton rotated with maize. Soil microbial community structure based on total fatty acid methyl ester analysis indicated a significant effect of glyphosate-resistant crop following 5 years of continuous glyphosate-resistant crop as compared with the non-glyphosate-resistant crop system. Results from this study, as well as the literature review, indicate differences attributable to the interaction of conservation practices and glyphosate-resistant crop, but many are transient and benign for the soil ecosystem. CONCLUSIONS Glyphosate use may result in minor effects on soil biological/chemical properties. However, enhanced organic carbon and plant residues in surface soils under conservation practices may buffer potential effects of glyphosate. Long-term field research established under various cropping systems and ecological regions is needed for critical assessment of glyphosate-resistant crop and conservation practice interactions.

Abstract
Sorption of acetamiprid ((E)-N1-[(6-chloro-3-pyridyl)methyl]-N2-cyano-N1-methylacetamidine), carbendazim (methyl benzimidazol-2-ylcarbamate), diuron (N-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-N, N-dimethyl urea) and thiamethoxam (3-(2-chloro-thiazol-5-ylmethyl)-5-methyl-[1,3,5]oxadiazinan-4-ylidene-N-nitroamine) was evaluated in two Brazilian tropical soils, Oxisol and Entisol, from Primavera do Leste region, Mato Grosso State, Brazil. To describe the sorption process, batch experiments were carried out. Linear and Freundlich isotherm models were used to calculate the K(d) and K(f) coefficients from experimental data. The K(d) values were utilized to calculate the partition coefficient normalized to soil organic carbon (K(oc)). For the pesticides acetamiprid, carbendazim, diuron and thiamenthoxan the K(oc) (mL g(- 1)) values ranged in both soils from 98 - 3235, 1024 - 2644, 145 - 2631 and 104 - 2877, respectively. From the studied pesticides, only carbendazim presented correlation (r(2) = 0.82 and p < 0.01) with soil organic carbon (OC) content. Acetamiprid and thiamethoxam showed low sorption coefficients, representing a high risk of surface and ground water contamination.

Abstract
An analytical method based on on-line solid-phase extraction-liquid chromatography coupled to electrospray tandem mass spectrometry (SPE-LC-ESI-MS/MS) for the determination of glyphosate and aminomethylphosphonic acid (AMPA) residues has been applied to the analysis of water samples within a Round Robin Study. The method had been previously validated in a variety of water samples and it fulfilled all the parameters of precision, accuracy, sensitivity and unequivocal confirmation. The results within the study that we participated were highly satisfactory in all cases with the only exception of glyphosate in groundwater samples, where surprisingly recoveries around 15% were obtained despite the use of isotope-labeled glyphosate as internal standard (I.S.). A slight modification has been introduced in the method, simply consisting of the acidification of sample with hydrochloric acid (HCl) to pH 1. Then, the sample is neutralized and immediately derivatized with 9-fluorenylmethylchloroformate (FMOC) before LC-MS/MS determination. Round Robin Study samples were reanalyzed using this approach, and the recoveries increased up to 98%. A possible explanation might be the slow kinetic interaction between glyphosate and some components of the matrix. These components might act as chelating agents, making glyphosate unavailable for derivatization and therefore for analysis. Several water samples collected at the Mediterranean area of Spain, and previously analyzed and being found to contain glyphosate, were also reanalyzed using this approach, obtaining higher concentrations (between 2 and 14 times) in most of cases.

Yi X, Lu Y. Residues and dynamics of probenazole in rice field ecosystem. CHEMOSPHERE 2006; 65:639-43. [PMID: 16529792 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2006.01.066] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/24/2005] [Revised: 01/27/2006] [Accepted: 01/27/2006] [Indexed: 05/07/2023]
Abstract
The simple and efficient method for determination of probenazole in soil, rice plant, and paddy water was developed, and the fate of probenazole in rice field ecosystem was also studied. Probenazole residues were extracted from sample, cleaned up by liquid/liquid partition and chromatographic column and then determined by gas chromatography with flame photometric detection. As far as the accuracy and precision was concerned, the method met certain standard. The LODs of probenazole calculated as a sample concentration (S/N ratio of 3) was 0.02 mg kg-1. The minimum detectable limit was 5x10(-10) g. The degradation of probenazole in soil, rice straw, and water was determined. The results showed that probenazole degradation in soil and rice straw coincided with C=0.576e-0.147t, C=17.858e-0.414t, respectively; the half-lives were about 4.7 and 1.7 d, respectively. The degradation rate of probenazole in rice straw was faster than that of in soil. Probenazole residue at 0.02 mg kg-1 could only be detected in paddy water within the first day after application. The final probenazole residues in soil, brown rice, and water were undetectable at levels of recommended and doubled dosage with an interval of 63 d. Therefore, a dosage of 1800-3600 g a.i. hm-2 was recommended, which could be considered as safe to human beings and animals. These would contribute to provide the scientific basis of using this fungicide.

Kumar M, Philip L. Adsorption and desorption characteristics of hydrophobic pesticide endosulfan in four Indian soils. CHEMOSPHERE 2006; 62:1064-77. [PMID: 15990147 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2005.05.009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/06/2005] [Revised: 04/19/2005] [Accepted: 05/04/2005] [Indexed: 05/03/2023]
Abstract
Adsorption and desorption characteristics of endosulfan in four Indian soils were studied extensively. The soils used were clayey soil (CL--lean clay with sand), red soil (GM--silty gravel with sand), sandy soil (SM--silty sand with gravel) and composted soil (PT--peat) as per ASTM (American Society for Testing and Materials) standards. Adsorption and desorption rates were calculated from kinetic studies. These values varied for alpha and beta endosulfan depending on the soil type. Maximum specific adsorption capacities (qmax) for different soils were calculated by Langmuir model. The values varied from 0.1 to 0.45 mg g(-1) for alpha endosulfan and 0.0942-0.2722 mg g(-1) for beta endosulfan. Maximum adsorption took place in clay soil followed by composted soil and red soil. Adsorptions of alpha and beta endosulfan were negligible in sand. The binding characteristics of various functional groups were calculated using Scatchard plot. Effect of functional groups was more predominant in clayey soil. Organic matter also played a significant role in adsorption and desorption of endosulfan. Endosulfan adsorption decreased drastically in clay soil when the pH was reduced. Desorption was higher at both acidic and alkaline pH ranges compared to neutral pH. Results indicated that alpha endosulfan is more mobile compared to beta endosulfan and mobility of endosulfan is maximum in sandy soil followed by red soil. It can be inferred that crystal lattice of the clay soil plays a significant role in endosulfan adsorption and desorption. Immobilization of endosulfan is more advisable in clay soil whereas biological and or chemical process can be applied effectively for the remediation of other soil types.
