Wang H, Li M, Li S, Chen X, Li B, Shao H, Jin F. Dissipation and potential risk of tristyrylphenol ethoxylate homologs in peanuts by spraying and root irrigation: A comparative assessment. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2024; 472:134486. [PMID: 38714052 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2024.134486] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/15/2024] [Revised: 04/19/2024] [Accepted: 04/28/2024] [Indexed: 05/09/2024]
Abstract
Peanuts, known for their nutritional value, health benefits, and delicious taste, are susceptible to agricultural chemical contamination, posing a challenge to the peanut industry in China. While tristyrylphenol ethoxylates (TSPEOs) have garnered attention for their widespread use in pesticide formulations, their dissipation and potential risks in peanuts remain a gap in knowledge. This study, unique in its focus on TSPEOs, investigates their dissipation and potential risks under two common application modes: spraying and root irrigation. The concentration of total TSPEOs in peanut plants was significantly higher when sprayed (435-37,693 μg/kg) than in root irrigation (24-1602 μg/kg). The dissipation of TSPEOs was faster in peanuts and soil when sprayed, with half-lives of 3.67-5.59 d (mean: 4.37 d) and 5.41-7.07 d (mean: 5.95 d), respectively. The residue of TSPEOs in peanut shells and soil were higher with root irrigation (8.9-65.2 and 25.4-305.1 μg/kg, respectively) than with spraying (5.4-30.6 and 8.8-146.5 μg/kg, respectively). These results indicated that the dissipation behavior of TSPEOs in peanuts was influenced by application modes. While the healthy and ecological risk assessments of TSPEOs in soil and peanut shells showed no risks, root irrigation might pose a higher potential risk than spraying. This research provides valuable data for the judicious application of pesticides during peanut cultivation to enhance pesticide utilization and reduce potential risks.

THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2024; 918:170603. [PMID: 38325469 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2024.170603] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/17/2023] [Revised: 01/18/2024] [Accepted: 01/29/2024] [Indexed: 02/09/2024]
Abstract
Trisiloxane ethoxylates (TSEOn) are widely used as agricultural surfactants due to their significant synergism with the active ingredients of pesticides, generally, including three typical end groups which are hydroxyl (TSEOn-H), methoxy (TSEOn-CH3), and acetoxy (TSEOn-COCH3), respectively. However, the potential ecotoxicological and endocrine-disrupting risks of TSEOn congeners have recently attracted ever-growing concern. Above all, there is limited research on the concentration levels of TSEOn in agroecosystems. This study, simultaneous analysis of 39 TSEOn oligomers in citrus orchard soils in China was implemented by the modified QuEChERS (quick, easy, cheap, effective, rugged, and safe) extraction coupled with ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS). The method detection limits (MDLs) and the method quantification limits (MQLs) for TSEOn were 0.003-0.07 μg/kg and 0.01-0.20 μg/kg, respectively. The recoveries for TSEOn oligomers in soils ranged from 81 % ∼ 106 % with related standard deviations (RSDs) < 7 %. This newly developed UPLC-MS/MS method with high sensitivity and stability allows us to successfully trace the occurrence of TSEOn congeners in the citrus orchard soils from 3 provinces and 1 municipality in China. The detected concentrations of TSEOn-H oligomers in the sampled soils ranged from 0.02 to 0.288 μg/kg (dry weight). The congener profiles of TSEOn-H were dominated by TSEOn-H (n = 6- 8) in the soils. Additionally, the total concentrations of TSEOn-H congeners (ΣTSEOn-H) in the soils were in the range of 0.03 to 1.49 μg/kg. A comparison of ΣTSEOn-H distribution among the different citrus orchard soils indicated a higher level of ΣTSEOn-H in the soil samples collected from Zhejiang Province. Notably, TSEOn-CH3 or TSEOn-COCH3 oligomers were not detected in the tested soils. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report on the occurrence and distribution of TSEOn congeners in agricultural soils.

Efficient optimization and development of two methods for the determination of acrylamide in deep-frying oil by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry: Application of multifactor analysis assessment strategy. J Sep Sci 2023; 46:e2200631. [PMID: 36427354 DOI: 10.1002/jssc.202200631] [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: 08/05/2022] [Revised: 11/22/2022] [Accepted: 11/23/2022] [Indexed: 11/27/2022]
Abstract
A new multifactor analysis assessment strategy was developed for evaluating, optimizing, and comparing analytical techniques for acrylamide in frying oils. Based on five indices (absolute recovery, absolute matrix effect, the intensity of the full ion scan, and the precursor ion scan to m/z 184 and m/z 241), the proposed strategy was performed with radar analysis, relative contribution analysis, and the entropy-weighted technique for order performance by similarity to ideal solution analysis. Two novel methods based on quick, easy, cheap, effective, rugged, and safe extraction methodology and gel permeation chromatography-liquid-liquid extraction followed by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry have been developed for the analysis of acrylamide in frying oils. Two methods were suitable for rapid and sensitive analysis of acrylamide in oils in different laboratories, with a limit of quantitation at 2 μg/kg, and the average recovery ranging from 92.5% to 107.8%, with relative standard deviations below 10%. When considering automation efficiency and matrix effects, gel permeation chromatography is the most efficient method, whereas the other method has an advantage when analyzing large samples. The developed methods were used in a pilot study to analyze frying oils with acrylamide content below 9.82 μg/kg, showing that the repeated frying process did not produce significant content of acrylamide in oils.

Front Nutr 2022; 9:1061195. [PMID: 36532553 PMCID: PMC9748182 DOI: 10.3389/fnut.2022.1061195] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/04/2022] [Accepted: 11/10/2022] [Indexed: 06/30/2024] Open
Abstract
A new method is described based on ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (UHPLC) with electrospray mass spectrometry detection for comprehensive quantitative analysis of 66 polyethoxylated tallow amine (POE-tallowamine) homologs in citrus. Efficient separation, reduced band broadening, and high sensitivity were achieved by employing an acetonitrile-aqueous solution containing a 10 mM ammonium formate gradient on a hydrophilic interaction chromatography (HILIC) column with a modified QuEChERS (quick, easy, cheap, effective, rugged, and safe) method. The quantitative accuracy and precision of the method were improved by the use of matrix-matched calibration standards. At spiked levels of (50 + 250) μg/kg, (200 + 1000) μg/kg, and (500 + 2500) μg/kg POE-5 and POE-15 (1:5), the average recoveries of the POE-tallowamine homologs ranged from 71.9 to 112%, with RSDs < 16.6%. The limits of detection (LODs) and limits of quantification (LOQs) for POE-tallowamine homologs were 0.01-2.57 and 0.03-8.58 μg/kg, respectively. The method was successfully applied to determine POE-tallowamine in citrus samples from typical Chinese regions in 2021. POE-tallowamine was detected in all 54 samples, and the highest concentration (143 μg/kg) of POE-tallowamine was found in Jelly orange from Zhejiang Province, which might indicate a higher usage and demand of glyphosate herbicides in Zhejiang.

Abstract
Tristyrylphenol ethoxylates (TSPEOn) are widely used as inert ingredients in pesticide formulations in the world. However, the information on the dissipation behavior of different homologs TSPEOn in agro-products is lacking. To investigate the dissipation behavior of TSPEOn, a cowpea field experiment treated with TSPEOn at different doses was carried out in Guangdong province, China. Different 24 TSPEO homologs were all detected in cowpea from the field terminal residue experiments, and the total concentrations of TSPEO homologs in cowpea were 40.0–1,374 μg/kg. The dissipation half-lives of 24 TSPEO homologs in soil were 1.51–2.35 times longer than those in cowpea. The long-chain homologs TSPEOn were dissipated faster than the short-chain homologs TSPEOn, suggesting a homolog-specific degradation of the TSPEOn in the cowpea ecosystem. The characteristic bimodal profiles of TSPEOn (n = 6–29) differing from that of the commercial TSPEOn were observed in the cowpea terminal residues experiment, indicating that the long-chain TSPEOn would degrade to short-chain TSPEOn in cowpea and soil. The acute and chronic dietary exposure risks of ΣTSPEOn in cowpea are within acceptable margins for human consumption across different ages and genders. But the health risks to children should be noticed in future.

Abstract
The potential for tristyrylphenol ethoxylates (TSPEOs) residues to contaminate crops or be released into the environment is of increasing concern, as they are toxic to living organisms. This study determined the dissipation of TSPEO homologues in cucumber under field conditions. TSPEOn (n = 6-29) dissipated more rapidly in cucumber than in soil samples, with half-lives of 1.80-4.30 d and 3.73-6.52 d, respectively. Short-chain TSPEOn (n = 6-11) persisted for longer than other oligomers in soil. Concentrations of the final residues (∑TSPEOs) in cucumber and soil were 24.3-1349 μg/kg and 47.3-1337 μg/kg, respectively. TSP15EO or TSP16EO was the dominant oligomer, with concentrations of 2.30-150 μg/kg. The risk assessment showed that the acute and chronic dietary exposure risks of ∑TSPEOs in cucumber were 0.03-0.57% and 0.05-0.39%, respectively, suggesting little or no health risk to Chinese consumers.

Abstract
Tristyrylphenol ethoxylates (TSPEOs) have been increasingly used in pesticide formulations as inert ingredients in China, but little information exists on the dissipation behavior of TSPEOs in foodstuffs. In this work, a rapid method for measuring TSPEO homologs in lettuce using QuEChERS and HPLC-MS/MS was established. This method was used to study the dissipation and distribution profiles of TSPEOs in lettuce. TSPEO homologs degraded rapidly under greenhouse and field conditions, with half-lives of 2.18-5.39 and 1.82-5.52 days, respectively. TSPEOn (n = 6-9) were relatively persistent in the field. The distribution profiles showed an obvious difference between the two conditions. TSPEOn (n = 14-18) degraded to shorter-chain TSPEOs with time, and a two-peak (TSP16EO and TSP10EO) homolog distribution profile occurred between 7 and 14 days of treatment under greenhouse conditions. This work improves the understanding of the dissipation behavior of TSPEO homologs in lettuce.

Abstract
Tristyrylphenol ethoxylates (TSP nEOs) are widely used as non-ionic surfactants in pesticide formulations in China. However, limited information is available regarding the occurrences of TSP nEOs in fruits. In this study, 361 fruit samples were collected from the main growing areas in China from 2016 to 2017 and analyzed for TSP nEO contamination using gel permeation chromatography-high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. TSP nEOs were detected in all samples, with a total concentration range of 0.5-14786.0 μg/kg (median of 85.0 μg/kg). The total concentrations were significantly but weakly correlated with the residues of acetamiprid ( r = 0.119; p < 0.05) and carbendazim ( r = -0.170; p < 0.01), suggesting that the TSP nEO residues are probably associated with the use of these pesticides during fruit growth. A risk assessment showed that there were little or no risks to human health. However, the risks to health associated with exposure to TSP nEOs should not be ignored because of their ubiquitousness in fruit samples.
