Abstract
Dye industry plays an essential role in industrial development, contributing significantly to economic growth and progress. However, its rapid expansion has led to significant environmental concerns, especially water pollution and ecosystem degradation due to the discharge of untreated or inadequately treated dye effluents. The effluents introduce various harmful chemicals altering water quality, depleting oxygen levels, harming aquatic organisms, and disrupting food chains. Dye contamination can also persist in the environment for extended periods, leading to long-term ecological damage and threatening biodiversity. Therefore, the complex effects of dye pollutants on aquatic ecosystems have been comprehensively studied. Recently, zebrafish (Danio rerio) has proved to be an effective biomedical model for this study due to its transparent embryos allowing real-time observation of developmental processes and genetic proximity (approx. 87%) to humans for studying diverse biological responses. This review highlights the various toxicological effects of industrial dyes, including cardiovascular toxicity, neurotoxicity, genotoxicity, hepatotoxicity, and developmental toxicity. These effects have been observed at different developmental stages and dye concentrations in zebrafish. The review underscores that the structure, stability and chemical composition of dyes significantly influence toxicological impact, emphasizing the need for detailed investigation into dye degradation to better understand and mitigate the environmental and health risks posed by dye pollutants.

Abstract
Triclopyr, an auxin-like herbicide that is widely employed for managing weeds in food crops and pastures, has been identified in various environmental settings, particularly aquatic ecosystems. Limited understanding of the environmental fate of this herbicide, its potential repercussions for both the environment and human health, and its insufficient monitoring in diverse environmental compartments has caused it to be recognized as an emerging contaminant of concern. In this study, we have investigated how triclopyr affects zebrafish, considering a new alternative methodology. We focused on the endpoints of developmental toxicity, neurotoxicity, and behavior of zebrafish embryos and larvae. We determined that triclopyr has a 96 h median lethal concentration of 87.46 mg/L (341.01 µM). When we exposed zebrafish embryos to sublethal triclopyr concentrations (0.5, 1, 5, 10, and 50 μM) for up to 144 h, we found that 50 µM triclopyr delayed zebrafish egg hatchability. Yolk sac malabsorption was significant at 0.5, 1, 5, and 10 µM triclopyr. In zebrafish larvae, uninflated swim bladder was significant only at 50 µM triclopyr. Furthermore, zebrafish larvae had altered swimming activity after exposure to 10 µM triclopyr for 144 h. In summary, these comprehensive results indicate that even low triclopyr concentrations can elicit adverse effects during early zebrafish development.

Abstract
Discharge of textile dye effluents into water bodies is creating stress to aquatic life and contaminating water resources. In this study, a new biopolymer adsorbent silk fibroin (SF) was prepared from Bombyx mori silk fibroin (SF) and used for removal of Solochrome Black-T (SB-T) from water. This innovative adsorbent exhibits an exceptional adsorption capacity of 20.08 mg/g, achieving a removal efficiency of approximately 98.6 % within 60 min. Notably, the powdered SF adsorbent demonstrates rapid kinetics, surpassing the performance of previously reported similar adsorbents in adsorption capacity and reaction speed. The molecular weight and particle diameter of the material were observed to be > 1.243 kDa and 3 μm, respectively. The experimental investigations were performed on different parameters, viz., adsorbent dosage, contact time, repeatability, and desorption-adsorption study. The experimental data well fit for the Langmuir model (R2 = 0.937, qmax = 20.08 mg/g) and the pseudo-second-order kinetics (R2 = 0.921 and qe = 1.496 mg/g). Compared to the adsorbents reported in the literature, the newly prepared SF showed high adsorption capacity and faster kinetics to address real-life situations. The novelty of this work extends beyond its remarkable adsorption capabilities. The SF adsorbent offers a cost-effective, sustainable solution and regenerable adsorption material with minimal negative environmental impacts. This regenerability, with its versatility and broad applicability, positions powdered SF fibroin as a transformative technology in water treatment and environmental protection.

Abstract
Organic and nanoparticle pollutants are the main environmental problems affecting marine species, which have received great attention. However, the combined effect of pollutants on marine life in the presence of predators needs to be clarified. In this study, the effects of pentachlorophenol (PCP) and titanium dioxide nanoparticles (nano-TiO2) on the energy metabolism of mussels (Mytilus coruscus) in the presence of predators were assessed through cellular energy allocation (CEA) approach. Mussels were exposed to PCP (0, 1, and 10 μg/L), nano-TiO2 (1 mg/L, 25 and 100 nm), and predators (Portunus trituberculatus presence/absence) for 14 days. Exposure to high concentrations of PCP (10 μg/L) with small particle size nano-TiO2 (25 nm) decreased cellular energy stores (carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins) and increased cellular energy demand (measured as the activity of the mitochondrial electron transport system, ETS). During the first 7 days, energy was supplied mainly through the consumption of carbohydrates, while lipids are mobilized to participate after 7 days. The presence of predators caused a further decrease in energy stores. These findings demonstrate that PCP, nano-TiO2 and predators have a negative impact on energy metabolism at the cellular level. Carbohydrates are not able to meet the metabolic demand, lipids need to be consumed, and energy metabolism was also mediated by the involvement of proteins. Overall, our results suggest that PCP, nano-TiO2 and predators disrupt the cellular energy metabolism of mussels through reduced cellular energy allocation, small particles and predators drive mussels to exert energetic metabolic adjustments for detoxification reactions when toxic contaminants are present.

Abstract
The concept of sustainability has gained prominence in recent years, enhancing the need to develop products that are less harmful to the environment. Dyes are used by various industrial sectors and have a lot of market value; they are used on a large scale mainly by the textile industry that uses large volumes of water and is one of the main contributors to the contamination of water bodies. Some natural compounds, especially anthraquinones are re-emerging as possible alternatives to synthetic dyes, some of which are known for their toxic and/or mutagenic effects. The BioColour project (https://biocolour.fi/) which is interested in promoting the development of new alternative molecules to synthetic dyes, provided us highly purified anthraquinone dyes dermocybin and dermorubin (>98% purity) extracted from a specie of fungus Cortinarius sanguineus. Dyes were tested for their acute and chronic toxicity using different aquatic organisms. Dermorubin was not toxic to any of the organisms tested for the highest test concentration of 1 mg L-1 and it was the most promising dye. Dermocybin was toxic to Daphnia similis (EC50 = 0.51 mg L-1), Ceriodaphnia dubia (IC10 = 0.13 mg L-1) and Danio rerio embryos (extrapolated LC50 = 2.44 mg L-1). A safety limit, i.e, predicted no-effect concentration (PNEC) of 0.0026 mg L-1 was derived based on the toxicity of dermocybin. The PNEC value can be used to provide hazard information for future application in commercial dyeing processes. Then, we compared the toxicity of dermocybin and dermorubin with ecotoxicity data available in the literature on other anthraquinone dyes of natural and synthetic origin. Some natural dyes can be as toxic as synthetic ones, or more toxic when chronic effects are considered. Despite natural dyes being used since centuries past, there are few ecotoxicological studies available. This study is designed to help develop a more comprehensive understanding of their toxicological properties.

Comparative Assessment of the Toxicity of Brominated and Halogen-Free Flame Retardants to Zebrafish in Terms of Tail Coiling Activity, Biomarkers, and Locomotor Activity. TOXICS 2023; 11:732.

Abstract
BDE-47, a flame retardant that is frequently detected in environmental compartments and human tissues, has been associated with various toxic effects. In turn, information about the effects of aluminum diethyl-phosphinate (ALPI), a halogen-free flame retardant from a newer generation, is limited. This study aims to assess and compare the toxicity of BDE-47 and ALPI to zebrafish by analyzing the tail coiling, locomotor, acetylcholinesterase activities, and oxidative stress biomarkers. At 3000 µg/L BDE-47, the coiling frequency increased at 26-27 h post-fertilization (hpf), but the burst activity (%) and mean burst duration (s) did not change significantly. Here, we considered that the increased coiling frequency is a slight neurotoxic effect because locomotor activity was impaired at 144 hpf and 300 µg/L BDE-47. Moreover, we hypothesized that oxidative stress could be involved in the BDE-47 toxicity mechanisms. In contrast, only at 30,000 µg/L did ALPI increase the catalase activity, while the motor behavior during different developmental stages remained unaffected. On the basis of these findings, BDE-47 is more toxic than ALPI.

Abstract
Dyes, which are very important for various industries, have very adverse effects on the aquatic environment and aquatic life. However, there are limited studies on the toxic properties of dyes on living things. This research elucidated the sublethal toxicity of acute exposure of the textile dye remazol gelb-GR (RG-GR) using zebrafish embryos and larvae for 96 h. The 96 h-LC50 for RG-GR in zebrafish embryos/larvae was determined to be 151.92 mg/L. Sublethal 96 hpf exposure was performed in RG-GR concentrations (0.5; 1.0; 10.0; 100.0 mg/L) to determine the development of toxicity in zebrafish embryos/larvae. RG-GR dye affected morphological development, and decreased heart rate, hatching, blood flow, and survival rates in zebrafish embryos/larvae. The immunopositivity of 8-hydroxy 2 deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) in larvae exposed to RG-GR at high concentrations was found to be intense. Depending on the RG-GR dose increase, some biochemical parameters such as glutathione peroxidase (GSH) level, acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity, catalase (CAT) activities, superoxide dismutase (SOD), and nuclear factor erythroid 2 (Nrf-2) levels were detected to be decreased in larvae, while malondialdehyde (MDA) content, nuclear factor kappa (NF-kB), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), DNA damage (8-OHdG level), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and apoptosis (Caspase-3) levels were found to be increased. The experimental results revealed that RG-GR dye has high acute toxicity on zebrafish embryo/larvae.

Abstract
Microbial fuel cells are biochemical factories which besides recycling wastewater are electricity generators, if their low power density can be scaled up. This also adds up to work on many factors responsible to increase the cost of running a microbial fuel cell. As a result, the first step is to use environment friendly dead organic algae biomass or even living algae cells in a microbial fuel cell, also referred to as microalgal microbial fuel cells. This can be a techno-economic aspect not only for treating textile wastewater but also an economical way of obtaining value added products and bioelectricity from microalgae. Besides treating wastewater, microalgae in its either form plays an essential role in treating dyes present in wastewater which essentially include azo dyes rich in synthetic ions and heavy metals. Microalgae require these metals as part of their metabolism and hence consume them throughout the integration process in a microbial fuel cell. In this review a detail plan is laid to discuss the treatment of industrial effluents (rich in toxic dyes) employing microbial fuel cells. Efforts have been made by researchers to treat dyes using microbial fuel cell alone or in combination with catalysts, nanomaterials and microalgae have also been included. This review therefore discusses impact of microbial fuel cells in treating wastewater rich in textile dyes its limitations and future aspects.

Nanocomposites of Copper Trimesinate and Graphene Oxide as Sorbents for the Solid-Phase Extraction of Organic Dyes. JOURNAL OF COMPOSITES SCIENCE 2022.

Abstract
A nanocomposite based on graphene oxide and copper trimesinate was obtained by the in situ method. The samples have permanent porosity and a microporous structure with a large surface area corresponding to the adsorption type I. A study of the adsorption properties of the obtained composites with respect to organic dyes (malachite green, indigo carmine, brilliant green, Rose Bengal, crystal violet) showed that adsorption largely depends on the content of graphene oxide in the composites. The complex is an effective sorbent for the extraction of cationic and neutral organic dyes when the content of graphene oxide in the nanocomposite is 20% of the calculated copper trimesinate due to electrostatic forces of interaction. For anionic dyes, the maximum adsorption is achieved when using a composite containing 5% graphene oxide due to the predominance of physical sorption. Experimental results show that the obtained sorbent can be used for extraction in a wide pH range, illustrating the excellent pH window offered by this adsorbent. Kinetics data were properly fitted with the pseudo-second-order model. Equilibrium data were best correlated with the Freundlich model. The process was endothermic and spontaneous in nature. The composite makes it possible to achieve a maximum sorption of 393 mg/g, which is a sufficiently high value for the absorption of dyes.

Abstract
(1) Background: Disperse Blue 14, Disperse Red 9, Solvent Red 169 and Solvent Yellow 33 have been used to color smoke; however, they have not been comprehensively assessed for their potential health hazards. (2) Methods: To assess the effects of these dyes, zebrafish embryos were exposed from 6 to 120 h post fertilization (hpf) to 10-55 µM Disperse Red 9, 1-50 µM Solvent Red 169, 7.5-13.5 µM Solvent Yellow 33 or 133-314 µM Disperse Blue 14. Embryos were monitored for adverse effects on gene expression at 48 hpf as well as for mortality, development and behavior at 120 hpf. The dyes were examined for their potential to cross the blood-brain barrier. (3) Results: Solvent Yellow 33 and Disperse Blue 14 impaired development and behavior at all concentrations. Disperse Red 9 impaired behavior at all concentrations and development at all concentrations except for 10 µM. Solvent Red 169 caused no effects. Mortality was only seen in Disperse Blue 14 at 261.5 and 314 µM. Gene expression indicated impacts on neurodevelopment and folate and retinol metabolism as potential mechanisms of toxicity. (4) Conclusions: Smoke dyes have a high potential for causing developmental changes and neurotoxicity and should be examined more closely using comprehensive approaches as used here.

Abstract
Since the middle of the twentieth century, the use of dyes has become more common in every food group as well as in the pharmaceutical, textile and cosmetic industries. Azo dyes, including carmoisine, are the most important of the dye classes with the widest color range. In this study, the effects of carmoisine exposure on the embryonic development of zebrafish at a wide dose scale, including recommended and overexposure doses (from 4 to 2000 ppm), were investigated in detail. For this purpose, many morphological and physiological parameters were examined in zebrafish exposed to carmoisine at determined doses for 96 h, and the mechanisms of action of the changes in these parameters were tried to be clarified with the metabolite levels determined. The no observed effect concentration (NOEC) and median lethal concentration (LC50) were recorded at 5 ppm and 1230.53 ppm dose at 96 hpf, respectively. As a result, it was determined that the applied carmoisine caused serious malformations, reduction in height and eye diameter, increase in the number of free oxygen radicals, in apoptotic cells and in lipid accumulation, decrease in locomotor activity depending on the dose and at the highest dose, decrease in blood flow rate. In the metabolome analysis performed to elucidate the metabolism underlying all these changes, 45 annotated metabolites were detected.

Abstract
PEN is a widely used triazole fungicide, usually used to control grape white rot. In the process of agricultural use, PEN will be scattered to the soil and water environment, which brings certain environmental safety risks. In this study, we used a 200-μg/L solution of Rac-PEN, (+)-PEN, and (-)-PEN to perform a 28-day exposure test on zebrafish. The results showed that long-term low-dose PEN exposure did not significantly change the growth factor K and the number of spawning of zebrafish. However, the content of four important hormones vitellogenin, 17β-estradiol, testosterone, and 11-ketotestosterone in zebrafish has changed significantly. Furthermore, we measured the expression of hypothalamus-pituitary-gonads-liver (HPGL) axis-related genes, and the results showed that the expressions of related genes in the brain, gonads, and liver all changed significantly. Combining the above results, we can conclude that PEN has obvious endocrine disrupting effect on zebrafish, and has gender-specific endocrine effects. Meanwhile, Rac-PEN and (+)-PEN had stronger effects on the endocrine system of zebrafish than (-)-PEN.

Abstract
Common textile dyes used in various industrial sectors are organic compounds and considered for the aquatic environment as pollutants. The textile dye industry is one of the main sectors that have serious impacts on the environment due to a large amount of wastewater released into the ecosystem. Maxilon blue 5G (MB-5G) and Reactive Blue 203 (RB-203) are widely used textile dyes. However, their potential toxicity on living organisms remains to be elucidated. Here, we investigate the acute toxicity and genotoxicity of MB-5G and RB-203 dyes using the zebrafish embryos/larvae. Embryos treated with each dye for 96 h revealed LC50 values of acute toxicity as 166.04 mg L-1 and 278.32 mg L-1 for MB-5G and RB 203, respectively. When exposed to MB-5G and RB-203 at different concentrations (1, 10, and 100 mg L-1) for 96 h, the expression of 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), a marker of oxidative DNA damage, significantly increased in brain tissues as compared to control. MB-5G and RB-203 resulted in common developmental abnormalities including tail malformation, microphthalmia, pericardial edema, curved body axis, and yolk sac/pericardial edemas. Moreover, at its highest dose (100 mg L-1), RB-203 caused premature hatching after 48 h, while MG-5G did not. Our results collectively reveal that the textile dyes MB-5G and RB-203 cause genotoxicity and teratogenicity during embryonic and larval development of zebrafish. Thus, it is necessary to eliminate these compounds from wastewater or reduce their concentrations to safe levels before discharging the textile industry wastewater into the environment.

Abstract
Spalting fungal pigments have shown potential in technologies ranging from green energy generation to natural colorants. However, their unknown toxicity has been a barrier to industrial adoption. In order to gain an understanding of the safety of the pigments, zebrafish embryos were exposed to multiple forms of liquid media and solvent-extracted pigments with concentrations of purified pigment ranging from 0 to 50 mM from Chlorociboria aeruginosa, Chlorociboria aeruginascens, and Scytalidium cuboideum. Purified xylindein from Chlorociboria sp. did not show toxicity at any tested concentration, while the red pigment dramada from S. cuboideum was only associated with significant toxicity above 23.2 uM. However, liquid cultures and pigment extracted into dichloromethane (DCM) showed toxicity, suggesting the co-production of bioactive secondary metabolites. Future research on purification and the bioavailability of the red dramada pigment will be important to identify appropriate use; however, purified forms of the blue-green pigment xylindein are likely safe for use across industries. This opens the door to the adoption of green technologies based on these pigments, with potential to replace synthetic colorants and less stable natural pigments.

Abstract
Solvent Violet 47 (SV47) and Disperse Blue 14 (DB14) are two anthraquinone dyes that were previously used in different formulations for the production of violet-colored smoke. Both dyes have shown potential for toxicity; however, there is no comprehensive understanding of their effects. Zebrafish embryos were exposed to SV47 or DB14 from 6 to 120 h post fertilization (hpf) to assess the dyes’ potential adverse effects on developing embryos. The potential ability of both dyes to cross the blood–brain barrier was also assessed. At concentrations between 0.55 and 5.23 mg/L, SV47 showed a dose-dependent increase in mortality, jaw malformation, axis curvature, and edemas. At concentrations between 0.15 and 7.54 mg/L, DB14 did not have this same dose-dependence but had similar morphological outcomes at the highest doses. Nevertheless, while SV47 showed significant mortality from 4.20 mg/L, there was no significant mortality on embryos exposed to DB14. Regardless, decreased locomotor movement was observed at all concentrations of DB14, suggesting an adverse neurodevelopmental effect. Overall, our results showed that at similar concentrations, SV47 and DB14 caused different types of phenotypic effects in zebrafish embryos.

Abstract
The textile industry, while of major importance in the world economy, is a toxic industry utilizing and emitting thousands of chemical substances into the aquatic environment. The aim of this project was to study the potentially harmful effects associated with the leaching of chemical residues from three different types of textiles: sportswear, children's bath towels, and denim using different fish models (cell lines, fish larvae and juvenile fish). A combination of in vitro and in vivo test systems was used. Numerous biomarkers, ranging from gene expression, cytotoxicity and biochemical analysis to behavior, were measured to detect effects of leached chemicals. Principle findings indicate that leachates from all three types of textiles induced cytotoxicity on fish cell lines (RTgill-W1). Leachates from sportswear and towels induced mortality in zebrafish embryos, and chemical residues from sportswear reduced locomotion responses in developing larval fish. Sportswear leachate increased Cyp1a mRNA expression and EROD activity in liver of exposed brown trout. Leachates from towels induced EROD activity and VTG in rainbow trout, and these effects were mitigated by the temperature of the extraction process. All indicators of toxicity tested showed that exposure to textile leachate can cause adverse reactions in fish. These findings suggested that chemical leaching from textiles from domestic households could pose an ecotoxicological threat to the health of the aquatic environment.

Abstract
The dyes Auramine and Auramine O are used in several industrial products, despite the scarce information regarding their ecotoxicity. The aim of the present study was to assess the acute and chronic toxicity of both dyes to aquatic organisms from different trophic levels (Raphidocelis subcapitata, Daphnia similis, Hydra attenuata, and Danio rerio) and calculate their predicted non-effect concentrations (PNEC). Auramine and Auramine O induced toxicity to all selected test organisms with L(E)C50 values ranging from 300 to 4800 ug/L. Both dyes induced inhibition in the growth rate of exposed algae, negatively affecting the reproduction of D. similis and induced deformities in H. attenuata (clubbed tentacles and shortened tentacles) and D. rerio (edemas, tail malformation and delay in yolk sac absorption). PNEC values of 0.92 μg/L and 4.0 μg/L were obtained for Auramine and Auramine O, respectively, based on results of the most sensitive test system (algae). Test results were analyzed using the Criteria of Reporting and Evaluating Ecotoxicity Data (CRED), confirming their reliability and relevance. Thus, PNEC values can be used in future risk assessments of those substances in freshwater systems.

Abstract
Penconazole is a widely used chiral triazole bactericide that may adversely affect the environment. It contains two corresponding enantiomers and there may be differences in toxicity between the isomers. Therefore, in this study, we exposed zebrafish embryos to different concentrations of the penconazole enantiomer to study the developmental toxicity and neurotoxicity of penconazole on zebrafish and the difference in toxicity between enantiomers. The results showed that penconazole exposure caused adverse effects on zebrafish embryos, such as autonomous motor abnormalities, heart rate slowing, and increased deformity, resulting in significant developmental toxicity. Meanwhile, also caused the zebrafish larvae to slow movement, the neurotransmitter content and nervous system related gene expression significantly changed, which proved that penconazole also caused neurotoxicity to zebrafish. Interestingly, our results also clearly show that (+)-penconazole is significantly more toxic to zebrafish than (-)-penconazole at the same concentration, whether it is developmental toxicity or neurotoxicity, which suggests that we should focus on (+)-penconazole more when conducting toxicological studies on penconazole.

Abstract
The use of 3D models in various scientific applications is becoming more popular to replace traditional monolayers models. In this work, we used a three-dimensional in-house model of epidermis using HaCaT immortalized cells to evaluate the dermal toxicity induced by Basic Blue 99 and Basic Red 51, both present in commercial hair dye formulations. Our data show that cells cultured in the 3D model respond differently to those cultured in monolayer. Basic Red 51 dye induces apoptosis an DNA breaks in both models, however, these effects is more pronounced in cells cultured in monolayer. The toxic mode of action of Basic Blue 99 seems to be the induction of cell death, without genotoxic effects, but while the necrotic pathway is observed in HaCaT monolayer cell culture, was apoptosis seen in the Equivalent Human Epidermis (EHE) model. We could also confirm that cells in EHE model, an environment that could better mimic human effects, react differently to chemical stressors than the cells cultivated in 2D.

Abstract
In this paper, we reported the extraction process of five different flowering plants utilizing different dye extraction methods and solvents (ethanol and water) to choose the best dye removal process. The FTIR spectra revealed the presence of several clear functional groups for all five natural dyes. The analytical studies such as UV spectroscopy, column chromatography, and vacuum evaporation were performed to isolate the dyes from their solutions. The UV-Vis studies on the pigments of flower extracts indicated broad absorption peaks in the visible region including clear bandgaps. Among the studied pigments, Alternanthera ficoidea showed the lowest direct bandgap of 1.69 eV and an Urbach energy value of 6.33 meV. The dye extraction yield rate improvement was extended from 11.7 to 24.7% (water solvent) and 11.3-32.4% (ethanol solvent). Throughout the studies, it was observed that ethanol produced a better extraction for organic dyes than water as a solvent. Aging studies revealed that all the dyes at the room temperature showed better stability with minor changes in the observed optical parameters in oxygen-rich conditions; however, these parameters have shown significant variations at a 60 °C temperature.

Abstract
Azo dyes are the largest class of dyes extensively used by industries despite their mutagenic potential for humans. As such, natural dyes have been reemerging as an important alternative to human safety. However, limited studies have focused on the effect of dyes on the environment, thus their ecotoxicological investigation is imperative. Here, we aimed to evaluate toxic effects induced by the synthetic azo dye Basic Red 51 (BR51) in comparison with natural dye erythrostominone (Ery) in the microcrustacean Daphnia magna, a standard organism used to assess the risk of chemicals to aquatic organisms. The colorless product formed after the photodegradation of Ery (DEry) was also evaluated, addressing an easy and low cost alternative for industrial effluent treatments. The results showed that both dyes are acutely toxic to D. magna. BR51 and Ery reduced the intrinsic rate of D. magna population increase, which generated fewer neonates per brood. BR51 also increased daphnids respiration rates. In contrast, DEry did not alter any of the analyzed parameters. No locomotor changes were observed when daphnids were exposed to sub-lethal concentrations of Ery or BR51. These results indicate that both dyes can induce deleterious consequences for daphnids including population level effects, but the natural dye Ery presents 100-fold lower toxicity in comparison with the azo dye BR51. Also, that photodegradation of Ery is an efficient method to reduce and prevent previously observed toxic effects, suggesting an inexpensive, fast and easy alternative for treatment of effluents containing this natural dye.

Abstract
Aquatic pollution caused by dyes has increased together with the growth of activities using colorants such as the textile, leather, food, and agrochemicals industries. Because most popular azo dyes are synthesized from benzidine, a carcinogenic compound, a threat to aquatic biota could be expected. The use of single species for toxicity assessment provides limited data, so a battery of test organisms, including representatives of different trophic levels such as algae, zooplankters, and fish, could undoubtedly provide more information. Therefore, our study was aimed at evaluating the toxic effect of the azo dye Direct blue 15 (DB15) on a battery of bioassays using a primary producer (Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata), a primary consumer (Ceriodaphnia dubia), and a secondary consumer (Danio rerio). P. subcapitata was more sensitive to DB15 (IC50 = 15.99 mg L-1) than C. dubia (LC50: 450 mg L-1). In the algae exposed to DB15, chlorophyll-a and -b were significantly increased, and carotenoids were reduced. The concentrations of protein, carbohydrates, and lipids per cell in P. subcapitata exposed to all DB15 concentrations were significantly higher than that measured in control. At 25 mg L-1 of DB15, survival, total progeny, and the number of released clutches were significantly decreased, and the start of reproduction was delayed in C. dubia. DB15 did not induce lethal or sublethal effects in D. rerio embryos at any of the tested concentrations from 24 to 72 h post-fertilization (hpf), but from 96 to 144 hpf, the larvae exposed to 100 and 500 mg L-1 developed yolk sac edema, curved tail, and skeletal deformations. After 144 hpf, DB15 produced a significant increase in embryos without a heartbeat, as the concentration of dye raised. The textile-used, azo dye DB15, caused toxic effects of different magnitude on microalgae, cladocerans, and zebrafish embryos; for this reason, the discharge of this colorant into waterbodies should be regulated to prevent environmental impacts.

Abstract
Deltamethrin is widely used because of its low toxicity and high efficiency. Although its potential toxicity has been reported, its effects on cardiovascular system and motor behavior and its underlying mechanisms have remained unclear. In this study, the effects of deltamethrin on the development, cardiovascular system and motor behavior of zebrafish larvae and their possible mechanisms were evaluated using the transgenic zebrafish Tg (kdrl:mCherry) and Tg(myl7:GFP). At 72 hpf, the body length of larvae shortened, the head and eye area decreased, and the hatching rate increased. Acridine orange staining showed that treated zebrafish larvae produced different degrees of apoptosis in the head, body, heart and tail regions. Quantitative fluorescence intensity showed a dose-dependent increase in apoptosis signal, indicating that deltamethrin could induce apoptosis. Confocal images and fluorescence intensity quantification of red fluorescent protein-labeled vascular endothelial cell and green fluorescent protein-labeled transgenic zebrafish more clearly reflected the dose-dependent cardiac and vascular morphology and the damage caused by deltamethrin. Deltamethrin significantly induced vascular endothelial growth factor flk1 and fli-1, cardiac development-related gene myl7 decreased in a dose-dependent manner. In addition, deltamethrin increased the thigmotaxis of zebrafish larvae, causing anxiety-like behavior. Our study showed that deltamethrin could cause developmental toxicity, apoptosis, cardiovascular system damage and anxiety-like behavior, which provided a reference for the use of deltamethrin in agricultural production.

Abstract
Clean and safe water is fundamental for human and environmental health. Traditional remediation of textile dye-polluted water with chemical, physical, and biological processes has many disadvantages. Due to this, nano-engineered materials are drawing more attention to this area. However, the widespread use of nano-particles for this purpose may lead to photocatalytic degradation of xenobiotics, while increasing the risk of nano-particle-induced ecotoxicity. Therefore, we comparatively evaluated the toxicity of novel synthesized core@shell TiO2 and SiO2 nano-particles to embryonic stages of Danio rerio and Xenopus laevis. The ability of photocatalytic destruction of the synthesized nano-particles was tested using toxic azo dye, disperse red 65, and the effects of reducing the toxicity were evaluated. The reflux process was used to synthesize catalysts in the study. The samples were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy, X-ray diffractometry, BET surface area, and UV-vis-diffuse reflectance spectra. It was determined that the synthesized nano-particles had no significant toxic effect on D. rerio and X. laevis embryos. On the other hand, photocatalytic degradation of the dye significantly reduced lethal effects on embryonic stages of the organisms. Therefore, we suggest that specific nano-particles may be useful for water remediation to prevent human health and environmental impact. However, further risk assessment should be conducted for the ecotoxicological risks of nano-particles spilled in aquatic environments and the relationship of photocatalytic interaction with nano-particles and xenobiotics.

[PMID: 29471168 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2018.02.094] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/14/2018] [Revised: 02/14/2018] [Accepted: 02/15/2018] [Indexed: 06/08/2023]
Abstract
Penconazole is a widely used fungicide that is toxic to a variety of organisms including fish. In the present study, we investigated the developmental toxicity of penconazole on zebrafish embryos by exposing to different concentrations of penconazole (0.8, 1.6 and 2.4 mg/L) from 4-h post-fertilization (hpf). Hatching, survival, and heart rates, body length, malformation and expression of several genes were detected. The results showed that penconazole exposure induced developmental toxicity, including delayed hatching, reduced survival, and heart rate. In addition to this, exposure to penconazole caused malformations, including pericardial edema, yolk sac edema, axial malformation, tail malformation and spinal curvature. Furthermore, RT-PCR results showed that mRNA levels of antioxidant genes were down-regulated after penconazole exposure. On the other hand, mRNA levels of interleukin 1 beta and interferon in embryos were up-regulated after exposure to penconazole. In summary, our data indicated that penconazole cause embryonic development toxicity on zebrafish embryos.

Developmental toxicity and neurotoxicity of synthetic organic insecticides in zebrafish (Danio rerio): A comparative study of deltamethrin, acephate, and thiamethoxam. CHEMOSPHERE 2018; 199:16-25.

Abstract
Synthetic organic insecticides, including pyrethroids, organophosphates, neonicotinoids and other types, have the potential to alter the ecosystems and many are harmful to humans. This study examines the developmental toxicity and neurotoxicity of three synthetic organic insecticides, including deltamethrin (DM), acephate (AP), and thiamethoxam (TM), using embryo-larval stages of zebrafish (Danio rerio). Results showed that DM exposure led to embryo development delay and a significant increase in embryo mortality at 24 and 48 h post-fertilization (hpf). DM and AP decreased embryo chorion surface tension at 24 hpf, along with the increase in hatching rate at 72 hpf. Moreover, DM caused ntl, shh, and krox20 misexpression in a dose-dependent manner with morphological deformities of shorter body length, smaller eyes, and larger head-body angles at 10 μg/L. TM did not show significant developmental toxicity. Furthermore, results of larval rest/wake assay indicated that DM (>0.1 μg/L) and AP (0.1 mg/L) increased activity behavior with different patterns. Interestingly, as an insect-specific pesticide, TM still could alter locomotor activity in zebrafish larvae at concentrations as low as 0.1 mg/L. Our results indicate that different types of synthetic organic insecticides could create different toxicity outcomes in zebrafish embryos and larvae.

Abstract
Dyes are widely distributed worldwide, and can be found in wastewaters resulting from industrial or urban effluents. Dyes are of particular concern as contaminants of the aquatic environment, since their toxicity remain poorly understood. Thus, the current study was designed to assess the effects induced by the synthetic azo dye Basic Red 51 (BR51) and by the natural naphthoquinone dye erythrostominone (ERY) on zebrafish early life stages (Danio rerio) at different biological organization levels, i.e., studying how changes in biochemical parameters of important physiological functions (neurotransmission and cellular energy allocation) may be associated with behavior alterations (swimming activity). This approach was also used to assess the effects of ERY after its photodegradation resulting in a colorless product(s) (DERY). Results showed that after 96 h exposure to BR51 and Ery, zebrafish embryos consumed less energy (LOEC = 7.5 mg/L), despite the unaltered levels of available energy (carbohydrates, lipids and proteins). Hence, cellular energy allocation (CEA) was significantly increased. On the other hand, only ERY decreased the acetylcholinesterase activity (LOEC = 15 mg/L). Despite that, zebrafish larvae exposed to both dyes until 144 h were less active. In contrast, DERY did not affect any parameter measured. These results indicate an association between a decrease consumption of energy and decrease swimming activity resulting from an environmental stress condition, independently of the neurotoxicity of the dyes. Degradation of ERY by light prevented all toxic effects previously observed, suggesting a cheap, fast and easy alternative treatment of effluents containing this natural dye. All tools assessed in our current study were sensitive as early-warning endpoints of dyes toxicity on zebrafish early life stages, and suggest that the CEA assay might be useful to predict effects on locomotor activity when cholinergic damage is absent.

Abstract
In the quest for developing novel narrow band gap semiconductor materials, the research in metal chalcogenides has gained a strong attraction. In the present investigation, a surfactant-free hydrothermal route has been followed to design hierarchical self-assembled flower-like ZnIn2S4 structures through control over precursor concentration and hydrothermal processing parameters. Uniform hexagonal marigold flower-like ZnIn2S4 architectures (∼4 μm) were formed with self-assembly of petals (thickness ∼8-12 nm) forming rose-like structures and finally forming marigold flowers in 24 h duration. The hierarchical ZnIn2S4 flower structure has been used as photocatalysts for the degradation of dye and chlorinated phenols. Photodegradation demonstrates that the high surface area from the porous flower architecture (∼72 m2/g) with an enhanced visible light absorption giving low band gap energy (2.15 eV) is responsible for higher photocatalytic performance. Complete degradation of the organic pollutants has been observed within 90 min in the presence of natural sunlight. To understand the participating reactive species contributing to degradation, scavenger studies were performed for deducing the plausible photocatalytic degradation pathways. This study might open new insights into the design of novel hierarchical structures.

Abstract
Zebrafish early life stages were found to be sensitive to several synthetic dyes widely used in industries. However, as environmental concentrations of such contaminants are often at sublethal levels, more sensitive methods are required to determine early-warning adverse consequences. The aim of this study was to utilize a multibiomarker approach to examine underlying oxidative stress mechanisms triggered by sublethal concentrations of synthetic azo dye Basic Red 51 (BR51), the natural dye erythrostominone (ERY), and its light-degraded product using zebrafish embryos. Biochemical biomarkers included parameters of detoxification and markers of antioxidant system, as well as oxidative damage. Results showed pro-oxidant mechanisms attributed to BR51 and ERY as evidenced by increased glutathione S-transferase (GST) activity, a phase II detoxification enzyme related to reactive oxygen species detoxification. BR51 also elevated total glutathione (GSH+GSSG) levels and catalase activity. However, both dyes induced oxidative damage as evidenced by elevated lipid peroxidation content. In contrast, when the natural dye was photodegraded, no marked effects were observed for all biomarkers assessed. Data indicate that such dyes are pro-oxidants at sublethal concentrations, predominantly involving GSH and/or related enzymes pathway.
