ECOTOXICOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY 2024; 284:116895. [PMID: 39151370 DOI: 10.1016/j.ecoenv.2024.116895] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/24/2024] [Revised: 08/12/2024] [Accepted: 08/13/2024] [Indexed: 08/19/2024]
Abstract
Neonicotinoids are widely used pesticides around the world, but the photolysis of neonicotinoids in cold agricultural region are still in blank. This paper aimed to study the influence of cold temperature over photolysis of neonicotinoids. To this end, the photolysis rates and photoproducts of dinotefuran and nitenpyram in water, ice and freeze-thawing condition were determined. Coupled with quantum chemistry calculation, the influence mechanisms of temperature and medium were investigated. The results showed the photolysis rates of neonicotinoids in water condition slightly declined with the lowered temperature due to the photolysis reactions were endothermic reactions. However, the photolysis rates increased by 89.8 %, 59.2 %, 49.4 % and 9.5 % for dinotefuran and nitenpyram in ice and thawing condition, respectively. This phenomenon was posed by the concentration-enhancing effect and change of photo-chemical properties of neonicotinoids in ice condition, which included lowered bond cleavage energy, lowered first excited singlet state energy and expanded light absorption range. The photolysis pathways of the two neonicotinoids did not change in different medium, but the concentration of carboxyl products was relatively higher than that of water condition due to the more amounts of reactive oxygen species in ice medium, which might increase the secondary pollution risk after ice-off in spring due to the higher ecotoxicity to nontarget organism of these photoproducts. The influence of cold temperature and medium change should be considered for the environmental fate and risk assessment of neonicotinoids in cold agricultural region.

Adsorption of antibiotics by bentonite-chitosan composite: Phenomenological modeling and physical investigation of the adsorption process. Int J Biol Macromol 2023:125156. [PMID: 37270136 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.125156] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/26/2023] [Revised: 05/18/2023] [Accepted: 05/28/2023] [Indexed: 06/05/2023]
Abstract
The increased use of antibiotics worldwide turned into a serious preoccupation due to their environmental and health impacts. Since the majority of antibiotic residuals are hardly eliminated from wastewater, based on usual methods, other treatments receive considerable attention. Adsorption is known as the most effective method of the treatment of antibiotics. In this paper, the adsorption isotherms of doripenem, ampicillin, and amoxicillin on bentonite-chitosan composite are determined at three temperatures, T = 303.15, 313.15 and 323.15 K, which are used to achieve a theoretical investigation of the removal phenomenon, based on a statistical physics theory. Three analytical models are utilized to describe the AMO, AMP, and DOR adsorption phenomena at the molecular level. From the fitting results, all antibiotic adsorption on a BC adsorbent is associated with the monolayer formation with one type of site. Concerning the number of adsorbed molecules per site (n), it is concluded that multi-docking (n < 1) and multi-molecular (n > 1) phenomena are feasible for AMO, AMP, and DOR adsorption on BC. The adsorption amounts at saturation of the BC adsorbent, deduced by the monolayer model, are found to be 70.4-88.0 mg/g for doripenem, 57.8-79.2 mg/g for ampicillin and 38.6-67.5 mg/g for amoxicillin indicating that the antibiotics adsorption performance of BC was greatly depended on temperature where the adsorption capacities increased with the increment of this operating variable. All adsorption systems are demonstrated by a calculation of the energy of adsorption, considering that the extrication of these pollutants implies physical interactions. The thermodynamic interpretation confirms the spontaneous and feasible nature of the adsorption of the three antibiotics on BC adsorbent. In brief, BC sample is regarded as a promising adsorbent to extract antibiotics from water and presents important potentials to be effected in wastewater handling at industrial level.

Abstract
To guarantee an adequate food supply for the world's growing population, intensive agriculture is necessary to ensure efficient food production. The use of pesticides helps maintain maximum productivity in intensive agriculture by minimizing crop losses due to pests. However, pesticide contamination of surface waters constitutes a major problem as they are resistant to degradation and soluble enough to be transported in water. In recent years, all groups of pesticides defined by the World Health Organization have increased their use and, therefore, their prevalence in the different environmental compartments that can have harmful effects. Despite this effort, there is no rigorous monitoring program that quantifies and controls the toxic effects of each pesticide. However, multiple scientific studies have been published by specialized research groups in which this information is disseminated. Therefore, any attempt to systematize this information is relevant. This review offers a current overview of the presence and distribution of the most widely-used pesticides (insecticides, herbicides, and fungicides) by crop type and an evaluation of the relationships between their uses and environmental implications in Spain. The data demonstrated that there are correlations between the presence of specific pesticides used in the main crops and their presence in the environmental compartments. We have found preliminary data pointing to existing associations between specific pesticides used in the main crops and their presence in environmental compartments within different geographical areas of Spain; this should be the subject of further investigation.
