Abstract
This study utilized computational simulation and surface molecular imprinting technology to develop a magnetic metal-organic framework molecularly imprinted polymer (Fe3O4@ZIF-8@SMIP) capable of selectively recognizing and detecting multiple fluoroquinolones (FQs). The Fe3O4@ZIF-8@SMIP material was synthesized using the "common" template-ofloxacin, identified by computational simulation, demonstrating notable adsorption capacity (88.61-212.93 mg g-1) and rapid mass-transfer features (equilibration time: 2-3 min) for all tested FQs, consistent with Langmuir adsorption model. Subsequently, this material was employed as a magnetic solid-phase-extraction adsorbent for adsorption and detection of multiple FQs by combining with high performance liquid chromatography. The developed method exhibited good linearity for various FQs within the concentration range of 0.1-500 μg L-1, with low limit of detection (0.0605-0.1529 μg L-1) and limit of quantitation (0.2017-0.5097 μg L-1). Satisfactory recoveries (88.38-103.44%) were obtained when applied to spiked food samples, demonstrating the substantial potential of this Fe3O4@ZIF-8@SMIP material for rapid enrichment and identification for multiple FQs residues.

Abstract
The presence of fluoroquinolones (FQs) residues in food and the environment has prompted concerns regarding food safety and public health. Consequently, it is of great significance to analyze the types and levels of FQs present. However, the majority of studies have concentrated on the specific detection of individual FQs, with a notable absence of high-throughput and rapid analysis methods for the simultaneous detection of multiple FQs that may coexist in food and the environment. Hereon, a triple-channel sensor array was successfully constructed utilizing fluorescent carbon dots (TA-CDs), with the assistance of Cu2+ and Fe3+, for the qualitative discrimination and quantitative detection of eight types of FQs. The sensor array can distinguish between different concentrations of FQs and various mixtures of FQs, as well as 100 % accuracy in the discrimination of unknown samples. Impressively, the sensor platform can quantitatively detect FQs in animal-derived foods, such as honey, milk, eggs, and pork, as well as in water samples. This research has the potential to be extended to other analytes with similar chemical structures or properties.

Abstract
In recent years, due to exceptional properties like broad interlayered spacing and low working potential, MXene-derived titanate nanoribbons have been established as promising electrode materials. Herein, the electrocatalytic activity of MXene-derived potassium titanate nanoribbon was employed to develop a voltammetric sensor for the detection of enrofloxacin. The sensor's significance is to provide a sustainable solution to quantify the presence of enrofloxacin regarding food safety and environmental monitoring. Moreover, to achieve the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals by preventing antimicrobial resistance to accomplish the One Health approach. Potassium titanate nanoribbons were synthesized using 2D Ti3C2 MXene as an active precursor material, while X-ray diffraction spectroscopy, field emission scanning electron microscopy, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, selected area electron diffraction pattern, elemental mapping, and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy were used to characterize the crystallinity, surface and layered morphology of synthesized nanoribbons. The Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) technique was applied to calculate the specific surface area of the synthesized materials. The materials underwent electrochemical characterization using cyclic voltammetry (CV), differential pulse voltammetry (DPV), and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Later on, the nanoribbons were fabricated on the surface of a glassy carbon electrode, and the electro-oxidative behaviour of enrofloxacin was studied by CV, DPV, square wave voltammetry (SWV) in 0.1 M phosphate buffer (optimized pH 8). The developed sensor depicts a significantly lower limit of quantification of 0.007 μM (≈ 2.5 μg/L), and an upper limit of quantification of 18 μM (≈ 6.5 mg/L) along with a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.00279, 0.00803, 0.00881 μM obtained from CV, DPV, and SWV respectively. Furthermore, the developed electrodes show a reliable selectivity to be examined in real complex matrices, i.e. marine water, river water, agricultural soil, organic fertilizer, milk, honey, and poultry egg.

Abstract
Rapid monitoring of trace antibiotics in the field in real time is essential for environment forewarning and human health. High sensitivity and real-time on-site quantitative monitoring of antibiotic residues can be accomplished by integrating portable sensors alongside fluorescent optics to construct an intelligent sensing platform that smoothly eliminates the instability of conventional detection methods. In this study, a ratiometric fluorescence sensor for the ultrasensitive detection of pefloxacin was built employing the photoinduced electron transfer (PET) mechanism from red Eu-MOFs to Mn2+-PEF complex. A visual color change results from the photoinduced electron transfer process from manganese ions to pefloxacin weakening the ligand metal charge transfer (LMCT) process in Eu-MOFs. This enables the ultrafast visible detection of pefloxacin and produces a transient shift in visual color with a detection limit as low as 15.4 nM. For the detection of pefloxacin in water, tomato, and raw pork samples, various sensing devices based on the developed fluorescent probes exhibit good practicability and accuracy. With the development of the ratiometric fluorescence sensing probe, it is now possible to quickly and quantitatively identify pefloxacin residues in the environment, offering a new method for ensuring the safety of food and people's health.

Comprehensive analysis and risk assessment of Antibiotic contaminants, antibiotic-resistant bacteria, and resistance genes: Patterns, drivers, and implications in the Songliao Basin. ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION (BARKING, ESSEX : 1987) 2024; 361:124852.

Abstract
The pervasive use of antibiotics has raised substantial environmental concerns, especially regarding their temporal and spatial distribution across diverse water systems. This study addressed the gap in comprehensive research on antibiotic contamination during different hydrological periods, focusing on the Jilin section of the Songliao Basin in Northeast China, an area with severe winter ice cover. The study examined the occurrence, distribution, influencing factors, and potential ecological risks of prevalent antibiotic contaminants. Findings revealed antibiotic concentrations ranging from 239.64 to 965.81 ng/L, with antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) at 5.22 × 10-2 16S rRNA-1 and antibiotic-resistant bacteria (ARB) up to 5.76 log10 CFU/mL. Ecological risk assessments identified significant risks to algae from oxytetracycline, erythromycin, and amoxicillin. Redundancy analysis and co-occurrence networks with ordinary least squares (OLS) demonstrated that the dispersion of ARGs and ARB is significantly influenced by environmental factors such as total organic carbon (TOC), total phosphorus (TP), total nitrogen (TN), fluoride (F⁻), and nitrate (NO₃⁻). These elements, along with mobile genetic elements (MGEs), play crucial roles in ARG patterns (R2 = 0.94, p ≤ 0.01). This investigation offers foundational insights into antibiotic pollution dynamics in cold climates, supporting the development of targeted mitigation strategies for aquatic systems.

Abstract
Solid-phase extraction (SPE) has gained an essential role in environmental analytical chemistry. Classic off-line SPE coupled with LC-MS/MS systems creates powerful analytical procedures for ultratrace analysis of contaminants of emerging concern (CECs) in water. But, being associated with tedious work and large consumption of materials, alternative SPE modes are becoming interesting. As so, the study focuses on development, evaluation, and overall comparison of established and novel SPE modes. Off-line SPE, dispersive micro SPE (DMSPE), and 'fast' single-pump on-line SPE were explored, using commercially available sorbents. Their efficiency was evaluated on their performance in water analysis of 20 multiclass CECs. Hydrophilic-lipophilic sorbent and mixture of C18/C8 sorbents were the best choice for off-line and DMSPE, respectively. All optimized SPE modes coupled with UHPLC-MS/MS reached environmentally-relevant limits of detection (LODs 0.1-12 ng L-1), acceptable repeatability (<20 % RSD), and exhibited less than ±30 % matrix effects in real river water sample. Among all, on-line SPE showed a potential to fully replace the well-established off-line SPE and even improve analytical performance. This was due to the best repeatability (<10 % RSD), automatization, simplicity, the highest multiplexing capacity, as well as comparable LODs of <2 ng L-1. DMSPE is, on the other hand, the most innovative and could be seen as a quick and green alternative to off-line SPE for determination of semi-to-nonpolar CECs, but within sub-10 ng L-1 range. Overall, the study shows workflow for the exploration of important and promising sample pretreatment techniques in water analysis. Comparison of the developed three SPE-UHPLC-MS/MS methods suggests that alternative SPE modes can compete with the well-established off-line SPE and can even improve the analysis quality if properly applied.

Abstract
Antibiotics are a new type of environmental pollutants. Due to its wide application in many fields, antibiotic residues are ubiquitous in the wastewater environments. Given their potential threat on water ecosystem functioning and public health, the detection of antibiotic residues in wastewater environments has become very necessary. Based on the complexation of Al3+ with flumequine (FLU), ciprofloxacin (CIP) and doxycycline hydrochloride (DOX), their molecular conjugated area were increased and fluorescence intensity were enhanced, combined with synchronous fluorescence spectrometry (SFS) had good selectivity and high sensitivity, a novel method of Al3+ sensitized synchronous fluorescence spectrometry for the determination of FLU, CIP and DOX residues in wastewater was established. When the wavelength difference (Δλ) was selected 115.0 nm, synchronous fluorescence spectra of the three antibiotics could be well separated and the interference of wastewater matrix were eliminated primely. The new SFS made good use of spectral separation instead of conventional chemical separation, and the actual wastewater sample could be directly determined after simple filtration. The experiment results showed that the concentrations of FLU, CIP and DOX in the range of 0.5000-800.0 ng·mL-1, 0.5000-640.0 ng·mL-1 and 10.00-3500 ng·mL-1 had a good linear relationship with fluorescence intensity. The detection limits of three antibiotics were 0.02054 ng·mL-1, 0.03956 ng·mL-1 and 0.8524 ng·mL-1, respectively. Recovery rates of three antibiotics in wastewater samples were 90.72%-98.23%, 88.68%-95.08% and 85.94%-96.70%. The new SFS established in this experiment had the advantages of simple, rapid, sensitive, accurate and good selectivity. Simultaneous and rapid detection of FLU, CIP and DOX residues in wastewater was successfully realized. It had good application prospects in real-time water quality monitoring.

Abstract
Due to the frequent detection and potential toxicity of moxifloxacin (MOX), its removal technology had attracted attention in recent years. In this research, CuFeS2/MXene was prepared and used to activate peroxymonosulfate (PMS) to remove MOX. The degradation efficiencies, kinetics, influences, and reaction mechanism of MOX by CuFeS2/MXene/PMS were investigated. The synergistic effect of CuFeS2 and MXene significantly enhanced PMS activation, producing SO4•-, HO•, and 1O2 as the main active species. By adding 0.12 g/L CuFeS2/MXene and 0.12 mM PMS, MOX removal efficiency reached 99.1% within 40 min, with a rate constant of 0.1073 min-1. The composite ratios of CuFeS2/MXene impacted PMS activation more significantly than catalyst dosages and PMS concentrations. Acidic conditions were favorable for the degradation of MOX, while HCO3-, HPO42-, Mn2+, and HA had the inhibitory effects. Twelve major products were detected by HPLC-MS, and DFT was used to illustrate possible degradation pathways of MOX, including the removal of nitrogen-containing heterocycle and transformations of quinolone moieties. Toxicity analysis showed that the developmental toxicity, mutagenicity, and acute toxicity of degradation products tended to decrease. CuFeS2/MXene could exhibit excellent reusability, maintaining an average MOX degradation efficiency of 90.8% in the 7-cycle experiments.

Abstract
Antibiotics released into water sources pose significant risks to both human health and the environment. This comprehensive review meticulously examines the ecotoxicological impacts of three prevalent antibiotics-ciprofloxacin, metronidazole, and sulfamethoxazole-on the ecosystems. Within this framework, our primary focus revolves around the key remediation technologies: adsorption and advanced oxidation processes (AOPs). In this context, an array of adsorbents is explored, spanning diverse classes such as biomass-derived biosorbents, graphene-based adsorbents, MXene-based adsorbents, silica gels, carbon nanotubes, carbon-based adsorbents, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), carbon nanofibers, biochar, metal oxides, and nanocomposites. On the flip side, the review meticulously examines the main AOPs widely employed in water treatment. This includes a thorough analysis of ozonation (O3), the photo-Fenton process, UV/hydrogen peroxide (UV/H2O2), TiO2 photocatalysis, ozone/UV (O3/UV), radiation-induced AOPs, and sonolysis. Furthermore, the review provides in-depth insights into equilibrium isotherm and kinetic models as well as prospects and challenges inherent in these cutting-edge processes. By doing so, this review aims to empower readers with a profound understanding, enabling them to determine research gaps and pioneer innovative treatment methodologies for water contaminated with antibiotics.

External carbon source as a viable tool for controlling antibiotics and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in effluent: Influence on antibiotic removal and ARGs dissemination.

Abstract
Fluoroquinolone antibiotics and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) regarded as emerging contaminants were poorly removed in conventional wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). Nitrogen-containing heterocyclic organics were found to be biodegraded through denitrification co-metabolism. The feasibility to enhance antibiotics removal efficiency in WWTPs through denitrification co-metabolism needs to be further verified. Meanwhile, due to significant correlation between ARGs profiles and nitrogen removal that was previously observed, the dissemination of ARGs during denitrification was worthy of in-depth understanding. Herein, the antibiotic removal and ARGs dissemination in denitrification co-metabolism condition were investigated with different denitrifying consortiums that acclimated under different conditions in terms of carbon source and the exposure of Ofloxacin (OFL). The results suggest that the removal of OFL can be enhanced by the denitrification co-metabolism. The tolerance to OFL is different among various denitrifying communities. For the denitrifying consortiums acclimated with methanol, long-term exposure to trace OFL (1 μg/L) could reduce the capabilities of removal and tolerance to OFL. On the contrary, those acclimated with sodium acetate (NaAc), the capabilities of removal and tolerance to OFL, were enhanced by long-term exposure to trace OFL. According to the quantitative determination to 384 target genes with high-throughput quantitative PCR, the abundance of ARGs in consortiums greatly increased when exposed to OFL at the concentration of comparable to sewage, which was also much larger than that acclimated with methanol. It can be confirmed and supported by DNA sequencing results that the antibiotic removal and the dissemination of ARGs were determined by microbial community that could be shaped with carbon source. These conclusions suggest that selecting the right external carbon source can be a useful strategy for WWTPs to control antibiotics and ARGs in the effluent. From a new perspective on mitigating ARGs dissemination, NaAc was not an appropriate carbon source.

Abstract
A 3D printed device covered with Zn/Co-ZIF-derived carbon allows the on-site extraction of fluoroquinolones (FQs) from wastewater, avoiding the sample transportation to the laboratory, and the subsequent elution, separation and determination using an on-line flow system based on sequential injection analysis (SIA) coupled to HPLC-FL. Several parameters that affect the extraction efficiency and desorption were optimized including the sorption phase immobilization technique on the 3D device, extraction time, pH effect, sample volume as well as the type of eluent, eluent volume, and flow rate. Under optimum conditions, detection limits of 3-9 ng L-1 were achieved for norfloxacin, ciprofloxacin, danofloxacin, enrofloxacin and difloxacin. The precision expressed as relative standard deviation (%RSD, n = 3), showed intraday and interday ranges of 1.5-5.3% and 2.8-5.7%, respectively, demonstrating a good precision of the proposed methodology. To assess matrix effects and accuracy of the proposed method in real samples, recovery studies were performed without and with FQs spiked at different concentrations (0.5-10 μg L-1) to wastewater samples, showing good recoveries in the range of 91-104%. The results allow to confirm the applicability of MOF-derived carbons as adsorbents for on-site extraction, and the satisfactory separation and quantification of FQs by a SIA-HPLC-FL on-line system after their desorption with small eluent volumes.

Abstract
Fluoroquinolones are broad-spectrum antibiotics that accumulate in the environment. To assess human exposure through the food chain, we developed a pharmacokinetic model of fluoroquinolone accumulation in fish and a human pharmacokinetic model to predict gastrointestinal concentrations of ciprofloxacin, a common fluoroquinolone, following consumption of fish. At 70 ng/L ciprofloxacin, the average in North American surface waters, the fish steady-state concentration was calculated to be 7.5 × 10-6 µg/g. Upon human consumption of the FDA-recommended portion of 113 g of fish containing this ciprofloxacin level, the predicted human intestinal concentration was 2 × 10-6 µg/mL. At 4 × 106 ng/L (4 µg/mL) ciprofloxacin, the highest recorded environmental measurement, these numbers were 0.42 µg/g in fish and 0.1 µg/mL in the human intestine. Thus, based on the ciprofloxacin MIC for E. coli of 0.13 µg/mL, background environmental ciprofloxacin levels are unlikely to be problematic, but environmental pollution can result in high intestinal levels that may cause gut dysbiosis and antibiotic resistance.

Abstract
A direct electrochemical sensor based on covalent organic frameworks (COFs)/platinum nanoparticles (PtNPs) composite was fabricated for the detection of ofloxacin (OFX) in water. Firstly, the COF material was synthesized via the condensation reaction of 1,3,5-tris(4-aminophenyl)benzene (TAPB) with terephthalaldehyde (TPA) and integrated with PtNPs by in situ reduction. Then, TAPB-TPA-COFs/PtNPs composite was loaded onto the surface of the glassy carbon electrode (GCE) by drip coating to construct the working electrode (TAPB-TPA-COFs/PtNPs/GCE). The electrochemical performance of TAPB-TPA-COFs/PtNPs/GCE showed a significant improvement compared with that of TAPB-TPA-COFs/GCE, leading to a 3.2-fold increase in the electrochemical signal for 0.01 mM OFX. Under optimal conditions, the TAPB-TPA-COFs/PtNPs/GCE exhibited a wide linear range of 9.901 × 10-3-1.406 µM and 2.024-15.19 µM with a detection limit of 2.184 × 10-3 µM. The TAPB-TPA-COFs/PtNPs/GCE-based electrochemical sensor with excellent performance provides great potential for the rapid and trace detection of residual OFX.

Abstract
Since the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, the anti-epidemic drugs have been used in extraordinary quantities with high intensity, and concerns have grown about their potential ecological risks due to their continued release and persistence in the receiving environments. A systematic investigation, covering the samples from hospital wastewater, effluent from wastewater treatment plants and receiving water bodies in the Pearl River Delta Region (PRDR), was carried out and aimed at tracing the sources and fate of 30 typical anti-epidemic in different water matrixes and evaluating their ecological risk. The results showed that these typical anti-epidemic drugs residues were detected in most of the sampling sites, with the highest concentration measured in hospital wastewater, whose concentrations were as high as ppb level, while the highest concentration of the surface water samples in tributaries was lower than ppb level. Anti-epidemic drugs contained in hospital wastewater and effluent from WWTPs were the main sources of drug residues in the surface water of this region. In the surface water of PRDR, although the detected concentration anti-epidemic drugs were basically in the range of 0-10 ng/L. The risk quotient of several anti-epidemic drugs, including Ciprofloxacin (CFX), Ofloxacin (OFX), Erythromycin (ETM), Clindamycin (CLI), and Sulfamethoxazole (SMX), was calculated to be a high value, which indicated that they might cause non-negligible ecological risk to the aquatic environment.

Abstract
A metal-organic framework (MOF) is a good carrier for molecular imprinting due to its high surface area and strong adsorption capacity, but its poor dispersibility in aqueous solution is one of the significant drawbacks, which can severely impede its effectiveness. Amphiphilic block copolymers are good hydrophilic materials and have the potential to overcome the shortcomings of MOFs. In order to improve the hydrophilicity of molecularly imprinted fluorescent materials, we have applied a combination of molecularly imprinted technology and amphiphilic block copolymers on MOFs for the first time. Amphiphilic PAVE copolymer is selected as the molecular imprinted functional monomer to improve the hydrophilicity of UiO-66-NH2. The synthesized PAVE-MOF-MIP has adequate water dispersion ability and fluorescence activity. When encountering oxytetracycline, PAVE-MOF-MIP will produce fluorescence quenching, it is used to construct a fluorescence detection platform for oxytetracycline detection. Compared with traditional MIP@MOF, PAVE-MOF-MIP has better water dispersion ability and detection accuracy. Under optimal conditions, the linear range of oxytetracycline detection is 10-100 μmol L-1, and the minimum limit of detection (LOD) is 86 nmol L-1. This paper proposes a novel approach to use amphiphilic block copolymers as molecularly imprinted monomers on MOFs, providing an innovative idea that has not been previously explored.

Coupled multimedia fate and bioaccumulation models for predicting fate of florfenicol and fluoroquinolones in water and fish organs in the seasonal ice-sealed reservoir.

Abstract
Ice formation in reservoirs could promote the accumulation of antibiotics in fish, potentially leading to elevated concentrations in fish muscles, kidneys, and livers. However, for the seasonal ice-sealed reservoirs, antibiotic sampling and detecting conditions in water and fish are normally limited by the ice cover. Additionally, previous studies on the prediction of antibiotics accumulated in seasonal ice-sealed reservoir fish are scarce. This study presents a coupled model incorporating a multimedia fate model and a bioaccumulation model to predict antibiotic fate in water and the muscles, kidneys, and livers of fish in seasonal ice-sealed reservoirs. Prediction concentrations of florfenicol were higher than those of ofloxacin and norfloxacin in both water and fish from the seasonal ice-sealed reservoir. Log bioaccumulation factors of antibiotics in Cyprinus carpio and Hypophthalmichthys nobilis in January 2021 were higher than those in October 2020 by 21.5% and 12.6%, respectively. Antibiotics mean transfer fluxes from water to fish muscles, kidneys, and livers increased owing to the reservoir ice-cover formation date advancing by 13.0%, 77.1%, and 61.0%, respectively. This work provides a modeling tool for investigating the fate and mass transfer flux of antibiotics in biological and environmental phases in seasonal ice-sealed reservoirs.

Abstract
A simple, fast, and low-cost method of extraction using magnetic nanoparticles was developed for sample preparation in the determination of ciprofloxacin and ofloxacin in meat tissues with the use of capillary electrophoresis. This study is the first utilization of silica-coated magnetic nanoparticles with attached C18 chains to extract fluoroquinolones from meat tissues. This method is therefore characterized by a very simple sample preparation procedure, but on the other hand, by satisfactory precision and accuracy. Magnetic nanoparticles with an appropriately modified surface were placed in an Eppendorf tube, then conditioned with methanol, next rinsed with water and, finally, a homogenized tissue sample was added. At the neutral pH of the sample solution, these compounds do not have a charge and are able to adsorb on the modified particles. After extraction, the nanoparticles were dried and, then, desorption of analytes was conducted with the use of a mixture of 0.1 mol/L HCl and acetonitrile (1:1). This approach made it possible to purify the sample matrix and to obtain satisfactory LOQ levels for the method using the CE technique with UV-Vis detection. In this method, the LOD and LOQ values for both analytes were 0.04 nmol/g tissue and 0.15 nmol/g tissue, respectively. The calibration curves were linear in the entire concentration range, and the accuracy and the recovery of the method were at the satisfactory levels. The square value of the linear correlation coefficients (R2) for Cpx and Ofx were 0.9995 and 0.9992, respectively. The precision value of the method was within the range of 3-11% and accuracy was in the range of 93-110%.

Abstract
The disadvantages of narrow working pH range (2.5-4.0), accumulation of iron sludge and incomplete degradation have hindered the practical application of the traditional homogeneous Fenton technique. In this research, Fe@FeS core-shell nanowires were synthesised and the innovative Fe@FeS/Fe2+/H2O2 system was adopted for norfloxacin (NOR) degradation at an initial circumneutral pH. More than 95% NOR has been removed in the Fe@FeS/Fe2+/H2O2 system within 30 min at pH 7. After investigating the concentration change of total iron, Fe2+ and H2O2 during the degradation process, NOR degradation in the Fe@FeS/Fe2+/H2O2 system might be attributed to the combined effect of homogeneous Fenton reaction and heterogeneous Fenton process. Besides that, the added Fe@FeS has accelerated Fe3+/Fe2+ redox cycle with extremely high degree. The generated reactive ●OH has been identified by electron paramagnetic resonance spectrometer results, possible degradation intermediates have also been proposed according to Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis results. Moreover, Fe@FeS core-shell nanowires showed excellent reusability, it is a promising heterogeneous Fenton catalyst that is applicable for practical application.

Abstract
The study investigates a bimetallic organic framework (Zn/Eu-MOF) based fluorescent probe for visual detection of ofloxacin (OFL) in pork, beef and fish. The developed sensing probe recognizes OFL through internal filtration and cation-π interaction between OFL and Zn/Eu-MOF, resulting in a distinct color change from orange-red to light green. The content of OFL can be determined through RGB analysis by a mobile-phone. The developed sensing probe offers several advantages such as broad linear range (0.1 ∼ 80 μM), rapid response time (30 s), low detection line (0.44 μM). The effectiveness of the sensing probe can last for five rounds with good recovery. Moreover, the application of the sensing probe on pork, beef and fish samples are reliable, with recoveries ranging from 93.4 to 112.1%, and the relative standard deviations (RSD) within 1.17% to 2.06%. These results suggest that the developed sensing probe could have significant potential for practical on-site test in food.

Muungani G, van Zyl WE. A CaCuSi 4O 10/GCE electrochemical sensor for detection of norfloxacin in pharmaceutical formulations. RSC Adv 2023; 13:12799-12808.

Abstract
This study reports on a calcium copper tetrasilicate (CaCuSi4O10)/glassy carbon electrode (GCE) electrochemical sensor developed for rapid sensing and quantification of an antibacterial drug, norfloxacin, using both cyclic voltammetry and differential pulse voltammetry. The sensor was fabricated by modifying a glassy carbon electrode with the CaCuSi4O10. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy was performed and the Nyquist plot showed that the CaCuSi4O10/GCE had a lower charge transfer resistance of 22.1 Ω cm2 compared to the GCE with a charge transfer resistance of 43.5 Ω cm2. Differential pulse voltammetry showed that the optimum pH for the electrochemical detection of norfloxacin in potassium phosphate buffer solution (PBS) electrolyte was pH 4.5 and an irreversible oxidative peak was found at 1.067 V. Two linear ranges were established at 0.01 to 0.55 μM and 0.55 μM to 82.1 μM, and the limit of detection was ca. 0.0046 μM. We further demonstrated that the electrochemical oxidation was controlled by both diffusion and adsorption processes. The sensor was investigated in the presence of interferents and was found to be selective toward norfloxacin. The pharmaceutical drug analysis was done to establish method reliability and a significantly low standard deviation of 2.3% was achieved. The results suggest that the sensor can be applied in the detection of norfloxacin.

Poly-(MMA-IL) filter paper: A new class of paper-based analytical device for thin-film microextraction of multi-class antibiotics in environmental water samples using LC-MS/MS analysis. Talanta 2023; 254:124188. [PMID: 36521327 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2022.124188] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/28/2022] [Revised: 12/02/2022] [Accepted: 12/07/2022] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
A paper-based polymeric ionic liquid (p-Poly-(MMA-IL)) was successfully developed by grafting the polymeric ionic liquid on the surface of commercial filter paper (FP) by using the dipping method, presenting a new cost-effective film. The newly developed p-Poly-(MMA-IL) FP was then applied as a paper-based thin-film microextraction (p-TFME) analytical device to extract 14 compounds as representative of five groups of antibiotic drugs, which were sulfonamides, tetracyclines, fluoroquinolones, penicillin and macrolides in environmental water samples. Besides, p-Poly-(MMA-IL) FP, p-Poly-(MMA) FP, and unmodified filter paper were successfully characterised by FTIR, NMR, FESEM, TGA, and XRD techniques. They underwent significant parameters optimisation, which affected the extraction efficiency. Under optimal conditions, the proposed (p-Poly-(MMA-IL) FP-TFME) device method was evaluated and applied to analyse multi-class antibiotic drugs in environmental water samples by using a liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS). The validation method showed that a good linearity (0.1 μg L-1 - 500 μg L-1) was noted (R2 > 0.993, n = 3). Detection and quantification limits were within 0.05 μg L-1 - 4.52 μg L-1 and 0.15 μg L-1 - 13.6 μg L-1, respectively. The relative standard deviation (RSD) values ranged at 1.4%-12.2% (intra-day, n = 15) and 4.4%-11.0% (inter-day, n = 10). The extraction recoveries of environmental water samples ranged from 79.1% to 126.8%, with an RSD of less than 15.4% (n = 3). The newly developed paper-based polymeric ionic liquid (p-Poly-(MMA-IL) FP) for analysis of multi-class antibiotic drugs under the p-TFME analytical device procedure was successfully achieved with limited sample volume and organic solvent, fast extraction, and feasible in daily analysis. The detection concentration and relative RSD of multi-class antibiotics determined in various environmental water samples by the proposed method (n = 5) were within 0.44 μg L-1 - 54.41 μg L-1 and 0.69%-15.56%, respectively. These results signified the potential of the p-Poly-(MMA-IL) FP-TFME device as an efficient, sensitive and environmentally friendly approach for analysing antibiotics.

THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2023; 858:159788.

Abstract
As one of the fourth-generation fluoroquinolone antibiotics, moxifloxacin (MOX) has been frequently released to the aquatic environment, threatening local organisms. However, researches on its ecotoxicity to aquatic organisms are still limited. This study analyzed effects of MOX on the growth, photosynthesis and oxidative stress of two common types of freshwater microalgae, Chlorella sorokiniana and Scenedesmus dimorphus. The 96 h-EC50 values of MOX for C. sorokiniana and S. dimorphus were 28.42 and 26.37 mg/L, respectively. Although variations of specific indicators for photosynthetic fluorescence intensity were different, photosystems of two types of microalgae were irreversibly damaged. The malondialdehyde content and superoxide dismutase of C. sorokiniana and S. dimorphus evidently increased, indicating that the exposure of MOX caused serious oxidative stress. Chlorophyll a, b and carotenoids contents of C. sorokiniana increased, probably resulting from the resistance to oxidative stress, whereas they were inhibited due to oxidation damage as for S. dimorphus. Risk quotients (RQs) of MOX for C. sorokiniana and S. dimorphus in wastewater were 7.882 and 8.495, respectively, which demonstrated that MOX had a considerable risk to aquatic environment, especially in the context of its increasing use in practice.

Abstract
Abstract
Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), acrylic acid (AA), and β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) were used as monomers, and ammonium persulfate was used as an initiator. Orthogonal tests were optimized the experimental condition, and aqueous polymerization was used to prepare poly-β-cyclodextrin/polyvinyl alcohol/polyacrylic acid (β-CD/PVA/PAA) hydrogel. The samples were characterized by FT-IR (Fourier transform infrared), SEM (Scanning electron microscopy), and XRD (X-ray diffraction). β-CD/PVA/PAA hydrogel was analyzed, which influenced external environmental factors on the β-CD/PVA/PAA hydrogel adsorption performance, and the kinetic behavior of β-CD/PVA/PAA hydrogel on ciprofloxacin (CIP) adsorption was explored. The results concluded that the prepared β-CD/PVA/PAA hydrogel has a well-defined three-dimensional network structure. The decrease in the pH of the CIP solution and the adsorption temperature reduces the adsorption reaction of β-CD/PVA/PAA hydrogel on CIP. The kinetics of CIP adsorption by β-CD/PVA/PAA hydrogel confirmed the pseudo-second-order kinetic model (R
2 > 0.997), the maximum equilibrium adsorption amounts is 372.12 mg/g, the removal rate reaches 74.42%. The adsorption process was mainly chemisorption, the adsorption isotherm fits the Freundlich adsorption isotherm model (R
2 > 0.946), and the adsorption process was heterogeneous with multi-molecular layer adsorption. The adsorption process inclined more toward the adsorption of inhomogeneous multi-molecular layers. The β-CD/PVA/PAA hydrogel retained 80% adsorption properties after three adsorption-desorption under optimal conditions.

Abstract
Fluoroquinolones (FQs) are broad-spectrum antibiotics widely used to treat animal and human infections. The use of FQs in these activities has increased the presence of antibiotics in wastewater and food, triggering antimicrobial resistance, which has severe consequences for human health. The detection of antibiotics residues in water and food samples has attracted much attention. Herein, we report the development of a highly sensitive online solid-phase extraction methodology based on a selective molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) and fluorescent detection (HPLC-FLD) for the determination of FQs in water at low ng L−1 level concentration. Under the optimal conditions, good linearity was obtained ranging from 0.7 to 666 ng L−1 for 7 FQs, achieving limits of detection (LOD) in the low ng L−1 level and excellent precision. Recoveries ranged between 54 and 118% (RSD < 17%) for all the FQs tested. The method was applied to determining FQs in river water. These results demonstrated that the developed method is highly sensitive and selective.

Abstract
Antibiotics in water system pose a human health risk due to the rise of antibacterial activity in the environmental web. Advanced oxidation processes are the potential to become an effective treatment technology for targeting antibiotics. This study demonstrates the visible light photocatalysis of lomefloxacin using magnesium titanate (MgTiO3). The nanomaterial was subjected to computational analysis to study morphology, functional, and optical characteristics through FESEM, XRD, FTIR, BET, UV-Vis, etc. Importantly, MgTiO3 had band gap energy of 3.09 eV. The photocatalytic studies were performed to observe different parameters affecting lomefloxacin degradation such as initial concentration, catalyst dosage, and pH. The nanomaterial exhibited the maximum lomefloxacin degradation. The study revealed that 30 mg/L of catalyst was optimum to degrade 10 mg/L of lomefloxacin with 30-W LED irradiation up to 150 min. Reactive species, namely, electron, hole, hydroxyl, and superoxide radicals, comprised the primary photocatalytic mechanism for lomefloxacin degradation. Ultimately, the summative result from this study highlights the suitability of the photocatalytic system to treat persistent antibiotics in aqueous environment.

Abstract
Fluoroquinolones, a family of synthetic broad-spectrum antibiotics, are widely used in clinical medicine, farm animals and aquaculture. Residues of fluoroquinolones in samples have attracted much attention because of growing food safety and public health concerns. Here, a novel Tb3+ ion-enrofloxacin aptamer coordination probe was prepared to develop a sensitive and rapid label-free fluorescence assay for specific detection three fluoroquinolones. In presence of the target, Tb3+ ion- enrofloxacin aptamer probe specifically bound with enrofloxacin, norfloxacin and ciprofloxacin, leading to a sharp increase in fluorescence emission of the probe. Under the optimized conditions, fluorescence increased linearly in the 1.0-100.0 ng/mL range for the three fluoroquinolones, with 0.053 ng/mL limit of detection for ciprofloxacin, 0.020 ng/mL limit of detection for norfloxacin and 0.061 ng/mL limit of detection for enrofloxacin. Satisfactory recovery (80.10-102.48%) in spiked honey and water samples were obtained for the three fluoroquinolones with relative standard deviations between 0.21% and 5.44% (n = 3).

Abstract
The new RP-HPLC-DAD method for the determination of ciprofloxacin and pefloxacin, next to their degradation products after the oxidation reaction with 4,4′-azobis(4-cyanopentanoic acid) (ACVA) was developed. The method was validated according to the guidelines of the International Council for Harmonization of Technical Requirements for Pharmaceuticals for Human Use (ICH) and meets the acceptance criteria. The experimental data indicate that the course of the oxidation process depends on the type of fluoroquinolone (FQ), the incubation time and temperature. The performed kinetic evaluation allowed us to state that the oxidation of FQs proceeds according to the second-order kinetics. The degradation products of the FQs were identified using the UHPLC-MS/MS method and their structures were proposed. The results obtained by the TLC-direct bioautography technique allowed us to state that the main ciprofloxacin and pefloxacin oxidation products probably retained antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli.

Abstract
A simple, fast, and accurate capillary zone electrophoresis method has been developed for the determination of ciprofloxacin and ofloxacin. This method uses liquid–liquid extraction. Therefore, it is characterized by a very simple procedure of sample preparation but at the same time satisfactory precision and accuracy. The extraction process of the same urine sample was repeated three times. The extraction protocol was performed each time for 15 min with 1 mL of dichloromethane and chloroform mixture in a 3:1 volume ratio. A 0.1 mol/L phosphate-borate buffer (pH 8.40) was selected as the background electrolyte. UV detection was performed at 288 nm. The separation was carried out at a voltage of 16 kV, at a temperature of 25 °C. Experimentally evaluated LOQ values for ciprofloxacin and ofloxacin were 0.2 nmol/mL urine and 0.05 nmol/mL urine, respectively. For both analytes the calibration curves exhibited linearity over the entire tested concentration range of 1–6 nmol/mL urine. The precision of the method did not exceed 15%, and the recovery was in the range of 85–115%. The developed and validated procedure was applied to analyze human urine for the content of ciprofloxacin and ofloxacin.

Abstract
Norfloxacin (NOX), a kind of quinolone antibiotic, is widely used in disease treatment and the control of human and livestock products. Due to overuse, norfloxacin has become a common organic pollutant in water. We combine the high specific surface area and high stability of metal–organic frameworks with the high selectivity of molecularly imprinted polymers. By grafting a carbon–carbon double bond on the surface of UiO-66–NH2, a molecularly imprinted layer is formed on the surface of UiO-66–NH2 upon free radical polymerization. The saturated adsorption capacity of UiO-66@MIP reaches 58.01 mg g−1. UiO-66@MIP exhibits high adsorption performance in real water samples and its recoveries range from 96.7% to 98.3%, which demonstrates a higher adsorption capacity and recovery than other molecularly imprinted materials and has potential applications in the removal of norfloxacin in real life. In this study, UiO-66@MIP was synthesized to remove NOX. The ability of UiO-66@MIP to adsorb norfloxacin in actual wastewater was also explored.![]()

The water quality of the effluents is mainly focused on physicochemical and microbiological parameters. However, the ecotoxicological assessments are crucial to ensure an effective water quality of the effluents. This work aims to assess the ecotoxicity of effluents originated from WWTPs with different wastewater treatment technologies. For that, effluent samples from three WWTPs with different treatment processes were seasonally collected. Physicochemical parameters were determined, the toxicity towards daphnia, protozoan, and microalgae organisms was evaluated, and data correlated. Toxicity assays showed different susceptibility of the organisms to the effluents and that toxicity is dependent on the season and wastewater treatment technology. No toxicity was observed to daphnia in winter and spring, but ~100% of mortality was observed in effluent from WWTP A in summer. Growth inhibition was observed for both protozoan and microalgae for all effluents and in all seasons with highest values in spring in WWTP C (~80%) for the protozoan while the highest microalgae growth inhibition percentage was observed for WWTP B in both spring (~80%) and summer (~80%). These results show that effluents might have negative impacts into their receiving water systems and highlight that a global assessment of effluent quality should include ecotoxicological assays to complement physicochemical and microbiological data for an operative environmental management of wastewater treatment plants.

Abstract
We have developed a precise and accurate method for the determination of ciprofloxacin and ofloxacin in meat tissues. Our method utilizes capillary electrophoresis with a transient pseudo-isotachophoresis mechanism and liquid–liquid extraction during sample preparation. For our experiment, a meat tissue sample was homogenized in pH 7.00 phosphate buffer at a ratio of 1:10 (tissue mass: buffer volume; g/mL). The extraction of each sample was carried out twice for 15 min with 600 µL of a mixture of dichloromethane and acetonitrile at a 2:1 volume ratio. We then conducted the electrophoretic separation at a voltage of 16 kV and a temperature of 25 °C using a background electrolyte of 0.1 mol/L phosphate–borate (pH 8.40). We used the UV detection at 288 nm. The experimentally determined LOQs for ciprofloxacin and ofloxacin were 0.27 ppm (0.8 nmol/g tissue) and 0.11 ppm (0.3 nmol/g tissue), respectively. The calibration curves exhibited linearity over the tested concentration range of 2 to 10 nmol/g tissue for both analytes. The relative standard deviation of the determination did not exceed 15%, and the recovery was in the range of 85–115%. We used the method to analyze various meat tissues for their ciprofloxacin and ofloxacin contents.

Synthesis of molecularly imprinted polymers for extraction of fluoroquinolones in environmental, food and biological samples. J Pharm Biomed Anal 2021; 208:114447.

Abstract
In recent years, fluoroquinolones have been found present in important water resources and food sources which compromises the food quality and availability, thereby, causing risks to the consumer. Despite the recent advancement in the development of analytical instrumentation for routine monitoring of fluoroquinolones in water, food, and biological samples, sample pre-treatment is still a major bottleneck of the analytical methods. Therefore, fast, selective, sensitive, and cost-effective sample preparation methods prior to instrumental analysis for fluoroquinolones residues in environmental, food and biological samples are increasingly important. Solid-phase extraction using different adsorbents is one of the most widely used pre-concentration/clean-up techniques for analysis of fluoroquinolones. Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) serve as excellent effective adsorbent materials for selective extraction, separation, clean-up and preconcentration of various pollutants in different complex matrices. Therefore, synthesis of MIPs remains crucial for their applications in sample preparation as this offers much-needed selectivity in the extraction of compounds in complex samples. In this study, the progress made in the synthesis of MIPs for fluoroquinolones and their applications in water, food and biological samples were reviewed. The present review discusses the selection of all the elements of molecular imprinting for fluoroquinolones, polymerization processes and molecular recognition mechanisms. In conclusion, the related challenges and gaps are given to offer ideas for future research focussing on MIPs for fluoroquinolones.

Abstract
Sewage treatment plants (STPs) and pharmaceutical manufactories (PMFs) are recognized as important reservoirs for aquatic pollution with antibiotics. Although the occurrence of multiple classes of antibiotics has been mostly reported for STPs and PMFs, knowledge on the effects of wastewater treatment processes on the removal of antibiotics is not well documented. In this study, wastewaters were collected from different treatment points of two STPs and two PMFs in eastern China. Thirty-seven antibiotics within the four classes of fluoroquinolones (FQs), macrolides (MACs), sulfonamides (SAs) and tetracyclines (TCs) were analyzed. Among the investigated antibiotics, 19-33 out of 37 target compounds were detected at least once in the STPs wastewaters ranging from low ng/L to approximately 12.7 μ/L. In the wastewater samples collected from PMFs, up to 34 antibiotics were present with detection frequencies up to 100%, showing generally higher concentrations (up to 19.0 μ/L) than those at the STPs. FQs and SAs were the dominant antibiotic families, which accounted for more than 90% of the total antibiotic concentration in the wastewaters. Moreover, the removal of antibiotics by anaerobic-anoxic-oxic (A2O), membrane bioreactor (MBR) and conventional activated sludge (CAS) systems was evaluated. The MBR system exhibited the best performance, mainly due to the processes of biodegradation and sorption during biological treatments. Notably, several SAs (SMP, SMZ) and FQs (CIN, ENO) antibiotics were consistently detected at concentration levels of μ/L in the effluent samples. The culturable antibiotic-resistance tests and risk assessment indicated that the antibiotic-contaminated effluents would facilitate the development of resistant bacteria and pose high toxicity to non-target organisms in the aquatic environment. Overall, the findings suggested an urgent need for improving the wastewater treatment technologies for simultaneous removal of different classes of antibiotics.

Abstract
The disadvantages of limited working pH range and poor stability have hindered the practical application of traditional electro-Fenton process. In this research, a novel heterogeneous electro-Fenton (HEF) process with FeIIFeIII layered double hydroxide/carbon felt (FeIIFeIII LDH/CF) as cathode was developed for the rapid destruction of ciprofloxacin (CIP) in bulk solution. Effects of crucial influencing factors (initial pH, current intensity) on CIP degradation were investigated. Results indicated that FeIIFeIII LDH/CF cathode was efficient for CIP degradation (88.11%). Furthermore, CIP degradation performance in HEF could remain stable over wide range of pH (pH 3-9). The catalytic degradation of CIP in HEF process might be a combined effect of homogeneous EF reaction, anodic oxidation, and surface catalysis process via≡FeII/≡FeIII cycle. Possible degradation pathways were proposed. The results suggested that FeIIFeIII LDH/CF cathode showed great application potential for CIP degradation.

Electrolysis-sulfate-reducing up-flow sludge bed-biological contact oxidation reactor for Norfloxacin removal from wastewater with high sulfate content. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2021; 196:110455.

Abstract
This study investigated the treatment of 100-mg/L Norfloxacin (NOR) wastewater containing high concentrations of sulfate through a combination of electrolysis, sulfate-reducing up-flow sludge bed (SRUSB), and biological contact oxidation reactor (BCOR) treatments. Results revealed that after 62 h, the reaction system had processed over 97% of the NOR. Additionally, electrolysis with sodium sulfate as the electrolyte transformed 87.8% of the NOR but only 33.5% of the total organic carbon (TOC). In the SRUSB, the TOC and SO42- contents were simultaneously reduced by 87.4% and 95.6%, respectively, providing a stable environment to the BCOR. In the BCOR, 36.3% and 85.9% of the NOR and TOC were degraded. High-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry analysis identified three possible degradation pathways under the attack of -OH during electrolysis, including defluorination, piperazinyl ring transformation, and quinolone ring transformation. Furthermore, the Illumina HiSeq sequencing results demonstrated that the sulfate-reducing bacteria (represented by Desulfobacter and Desulfobulbus) in the SRUSB and the sulfate-oxidizing bacteria (mainly consisting of Gammaproteobacteria and Alphaproteobacteria) in the BCOR played important roles in carbon chain oxidation and benzene ring opening and thoroughly degraded the electrolysis products. Thus, this method effectively overcomes the incomplete degradation and low removal efficiency issues associated with single electrolysis or biological methods in traditional processes.

Abstract
The magnetic molecular imprinting polymers nanoparticles (MMIPs NPs) for the extraction of norfloxacin (NOR) were prepared by self-polymerization of dopamine onto the surface of (3-Aminopropyl)triethoxysilane (APTES)-modified Fe3O4 NPs. The MMIPs NPs were characterized by FT-IR spectroscopy, XRD, VSM and TEM. The characterization results show that the MMIPs NPs possess superparamagnetic characteristic with the saturated magnetization value of 38.6 emu/g, and the average particle size of about 14.3 nm. Furthermore, the adsorption performance of the MMIPs NPs was evaluated by the static, dynamic, selective adsorption and reusability experiments. The adsorption capacity of MMINs NPs for NOR is 14.2 mg/g with an imprinted factor of 2.1. About 82.4-102.4% of the added NOR (20, 40, 60 μg/mL) were recovered from fortified milk samples with MMIPs NPs as sorbent. Moreover, the MMIPs NPs can be reused for at least six times.

Abstract
Herein, the hydrophobic carboxyl-functionalized ionic liquid (IL-COOH) was encapsulated into the prepared Fe3O4@Zr-MOFs, and the novel water-stable IL-COOH/Fe3O4@Zr-MOF nanocomposites were first synthesized. The polydopamine-functionalized Fe3O4 was introduced to construct the core-shell structure via layer-by-layer modification, and the controlled growth of Zr-MOFs was achieved, which realized the adjustment of charged properties of nanocomposites and simplified the adsorption or extraction process. The IL-COOH/Fe3O4@Zr-MOFs were fully studied by IR, HNMR, XRD, N2 adsorption-desorption isotherms, TEM, EDS mapping, VSM, and so on. Then, they were employed for the selective adsorption and detection of fluoroquinolone antibiotics (FQs). The adsorption isotherms and kinetics demonstrated that the adsorption process followed a pseudo-second-order kinetic model and the Langmuir isotherm model. Among them, IL-COOH/Fe3O4@UiO-67-bpydc showed the best adsorption performance, and the maximum adsorption capacity of ofloxacin was 438.5 mg g-1. Coupled magnetic solid-phase extraction with HPLC-DAD, a convenient, sensitive, and efficient method for extraction and detection of FQs in environmental water, was developed based on IL-COOH/Fe3O4@UiO-67-bpydc. The recoveries of environmental water were ranging from 90.0 to 110.0%, and the detection limits were lower than 0.02 μg L-1. The novel functionalized composites served as solid-phase adsorbents and liquid-phase extractants. This study also provided a promising strategy for designing and preparing multi-functionalized nanocomposites for the removal or detection of pollutants in environmental samples.

Abstract
Antibiotics are widely used in the treatment of human and veterinary diseases and are being used worldwide in the agriculture industry to promote livestock growth. However, a variety of antibiotics that are found in aquatic environments are toxic to aquatic organisms. Antibiotics are not completely removed by wastewater treatment plants and are therefore released into aquatic environments, which raises concern about the destruction of the ecosystem owing to their non-target effects. Since antibiotics are designed to be persistent and work steadily in the body, their chronic toxicity effects have been studied in aquatic microorganisms. However, research on the toxicity of antibiotics in fish at the top of the aquatic food chain is relatively poor. This paper summarizes the current understanding of the reported toxicity studies with antibiotics in fish, including zebrafish, to date. Four antibiotic types; quinolones, sulfonamides, tetracyclines, and macrolides, which are thought to be genetically toxic to fish have been reported to bioaccumulate in fish tissues, as well as in aquatic environments such as rivers and surface water. The adverse effects of these antibiotics are known to cause damage to developmental, cardiovascular, and metabolic systems, as well as in altering anti-oxidant and immune responses, in fish. Therefore, there are serious concerns about the toxicity of antibiotics in fish and further research and strategies are needed to prevent them in different regions of the world.
