Abstract
This research, described ultrasound-assisted dispersive magnetic solid-phase microextraction, which is efficient for the enrichment and determination of sulfamethoxazole, based on magnetic molecularly imprinted polymer (USA-DMSPME-MIP). Meanwhile, the initial characterization of Fe3O4-MIP was completed by conventional methods and well-known protocols to obtain recognition and adsorbing performance at pre-specified optimum conditions. Fe3O4-MIP exhibited information regarding its selective recognition pattern towards sulfamethoxazole. The USA-DMSPME-MIP parameters were optimized by response surface methodology, and based on optimum conditions, this efficient method for the extraction and enrichment of sulfamethoxazole from spiked water samples and quantification by HPLC-UV was used. The enhanced technique indicates the limit of detection is 2 ng mL-1 for sulfamethoxazole, along with excellent linear range with coefficients of determination >0.99 and good recoveries for spiked water samples (94.2 and 98.2 %) with RSDs less than 3.5 %.

JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2024; 469:133842. [PMID: 38432088 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2024.133842] [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: 01/02/2024] [Revised: 01/25/2024] [Accepted: 02/18/2024] [Indexed: 03/05/2024]
Abstract
Antibiotic exist in various states after entering agricultural soil through the application of manure, including the aqueous state (I), which can be directly absorbed by plants, and the auxiliary organic extraction state (III), which is closely associated with the pseudo-permanence of antibiotics. However, effective analytical methods for extracting and affecting factors on fractions of different antibiotic states remain unclear. In this study, KCl, acetonitrile/Na2EDTA-McIlvaine buffer, and acetonitrile/water were successively used to extract states I, II, and III of 21 antibiotics in soil, and the recovery efficiency met the quantitative requirements. Random forest classification and variance partitioning analysis revealed that dissolved organic matter, pH, and organic matter were important factors affecting the recovery efficiency of antibiotic in states I, II, and III, respectively. Additionally, 65-day spiked soil experiments combined with Mantel test analysis suggested that pH, organic acids, heavy metals, and noncrystalline minerals differentially affected antibiotic type and state. Importantly, a structural equation model indicated that organic acids play a crucial role in the fraction of antibiotic states. Overall, this study reveals the factors influencing the fraction of different antibiotic states in soil, which is helpful for accurately assessing their ecological risk.

Antibiotics soil-solution chemistry: A review of environmental behavior and uptake and transformation by plants. JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT 2024; 354:120312. [PMID: 38340667 DOI: 10.1016/j.jenvman.2024.120312] [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: 07/22/2023] [Revised: 10/21/2023] [Accepted: 02/06/2024] [Indexed: 02/12/2024]
Abstract
The increased use of antibiotics by humans for various purposes has left the environment polluted. Antibiotic pollution remediation is challenging because antibiotics exist in trace amounts and only highly sensitive detection techniques could be used to quantify them. Nevertheless, their trace quantity is not a hindrance to their transfer along the food chain, causing sensitization and the development of antibiotic resistance. Despite an increase in the literature on antibiotic pollution and the development and transfer of antibiotic-resistant genes (ARGs), little attention has been given to the behavior of antibiotics at the soil-solution interface and how this affects antibiotic adsorption-desorption interactions and subsequent uptake and transformation by plants. Thus, this review critically examines the interactions and possible degradation mechanisms of antibiotics in soil and the link between antibiotic soil-solution chemistry and uptake by plants. Also, different factors influencing antibiotic mobility in soil and the transfer of ARGs from one organism to another were considered. The mechanistic and critical analyses revealed that: (a) the charge characteristics of antibiotics at the soil-root interface determine whether they are adsorbed to soil or taken up by plants; (b) antibiotics that avoid soil colloids and reach soil pore water can be absorbed by plant roots, but their translocation to the stem and leaves depends on the ionic state of the molecule; (c) few studies have explored how plants adapt to antibiotic pollution and the transformation of antibiotics in plants; and (d) the persistence of antibiotics in cropland soils can be influenced by the content of soil organic matter, coexisting ions, and fertilization practices. Future research should focus on the soil/solution-antibiotic-plant interactions to reveal detailed mechanisms of antibiotic transformation by plants and whether plant-transformed antibiotics could be of environmental risk.

Abstract
The application of manure as a fertiliser to farmland is regarded as a major source of veterinary antibiotic (VA) contamination in the environment. The frequent detection of such emerging contaminants and their potential adverse impacts on the ecosystem and human health have provoked increasing concern for VA transport and fate. Extrinsic dissolved organic matter (DOM) may be introduced into farmland soil along with Vas, and thus exert significant effects on the transport of VAs via hydrological processes upon rainfall. The leaching of VAs can be either enhanced or reduced by DOM, depending on the nature, mobility, and interactions of VAs with DOM of different origins. From the aspect of the diversity and reactivity of DOM, the state-of-the-art knowledge of DOM-VA interactions and their resulting effects on the sorption-desorption and leaching of VAs in farmland soil was reviewed. Spectroscopic techniques for examining the extent of binding and reactive components of DOM with VAs are summarized and their usefulness is highlighted. Models for simulating VA transport under the effects of DOM were also reviewed. It is suggested that distinct impacts of DOM of various organic fertiliser/amendment origins should be considered for predicting the transport of VAs in farmland soil.

Abstract
Application of organic wastes as soil fertilizers represents an important route of agricultural soil contamination by antibiotics such as sulfamethoxazole (SMX). Soil contamination may be influenced by the storage time of organic wastes before soil spreading. The objective of this work was to study the fate of SMX in two organic wastes, a co-compost of green waste and sewage sludge and a bovine manure, which were stored between 0 and 28 days, then incorporated in an agricultural soil that has never received organic waste and monitored for 28 days under laboratory conditions. Organic wastes were spiked with 14C-labelled SMX at two concentrations (4.77 and 48.03 mg kg-1 dry organic waste). The fate of SMX in organic wastes and soil-organic waste mixtures was monitored through the distribution of radioactivity in the mineralised, available (2-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin extracts), extractable (acetonitrile extracts) and non-extractable fractions. SMX dissipation in organic wastes, although partial, was due to i) incomplete degradation, which led to the formation of metabolites detected by high performance liquid chromatography, ii) weak adsorption and iii) formation of non-extractable residues. Such processes varied with the organic wastes, the manure promoting non-extractable residues, and the compost leading to an increase in extractable and non-extractable residues. Short storage does not lead to complete SMX elimination; thus, environmental contamination may occur after incorporating organic wastes into soil. After addition of organic wastes to the soil, SMX residues in the available fraction decreased quickly and were transferred to the extractable and mostly non-extractable fractions. The fate of SMX in the soil also depended on the organic wastes and on the prior storage time for manure. However the fate of SMX in the organic wastes and soil-organic waste mixtures was independent on the initial spiked concentration.

Abstract
The emergence of antibiotic agents like sulfamethoxazole (SMX) in soils and surface water can cause serious threat to human and animal health. In this work, mechanisms for the promotive effect of gallic acid (GA) on the transformation of SMX by birnessite were studied. In the absence of GA, the observed pseudo-first-order reaction constants (kobs) decreased as the pH increased from 4.0 to 8.0, in agreement with the decrease in redox potential of birnessite with increasing pH. The changes in chemical state of surface Mn atoms suggested that Mn(IV) played a major role in SMX transformation. SMX was transformed mainly by the bond cleavage of SN and SC, NH oxidation, and self- or cross-coupling reactions, with the formation of seven transformation products. The presence of GA could significantly promote the transformation of SMX, which was more pronounced at pH 6.0 comparing to the effect observed at 4.0. This promotive effect was attributed to both the addition reactions between SMX and GA quinones and the condensation reactions between -COOH of quinones and -NH2 of SMX or its transformation products. Moreover, the addition reaction between SMX and OH coming from the GA oxidation by birnessite was also proposed, while its contribution to SMX transformation was small. Furthermore, pyrogallol and methyl gallate that do not contain electron-withdrawing substituent like -COOH group are less effective in promoting SMX transformation than GA, suggesting the electron-density of β‑carbon is key to the occurrence of addition reaction. Our results demonstrate the important role of birnessite and naturally occurring phenolic acids in abiotic transformation SMX, which will profoundly affect its mobility and bioavailability in environments.

Abstract
Two soils contaminated with potentially toxic metals (PTMs) contrasting in pH and mineralogy were remediated with CaEDTA, and changes in soil organic matter (SOM) composition were investigated. Previous studies showed no significant loss of SOM from CaEDTA-treated soils, but the results of our study reflected significant decreases (from 46 to 49%) in the free fraction of humic acids (HAs). Remediation affected the composition of the free HA fraction via disturbance of intermolecular bonds - an increase in phenolic and aromatic groups with a simultaneous decrease in carbohydrates - which was confirmed by FTIR spectroscopy in both soils. Because non-radical molecules such as carbohydrates were selectively removed, the concentration of free radicals in the free HA fraction increased in acidic soil. The bound fraction of HAs and fulvic acids (FAs) in SOM, which are important due to their stability and the permanent effects they have on the soil's physical properties, remained unchanged in both remediated soils. The effect of soil recultivation was observed only in the excitation emission matrix (EEM) fluorescence spectra of HAs. In terms of SOM, CaEDTA soil washing can be considered moderately conservative; however, the restoration of free humic fractions is likely to be a long-term process.

Abstract
The presence of residues of veterinary pharmaceuticals in farm wastewaters such as pig slurry represents a problem that needs to be tackled to avoid further contamination of environmental waters and the development of resistant bacteria. For their monitoring and control, it is necessary the existence of reliable analytical tools. The present paper describes for the first time the development and optimization by statistical experimental design of a specifically designed analytical method for the analysis of 21 veterinary drugs, including 18 antibiotics of several families (β-lactams, tetracyclines, fluoroquinolones, sulfonamides, macrolides, among others), 1 antiparasitic, 1 analgesic and 1 hormone, in a complex environmental matrix such as the fresh solid phase of pig slurry. The resulting method, consisted of an ultrasound assisted extraction (UAE) combined with in-situ dispersive solid phase extraction (d-SPE) from a 0.3 g of freeze-dried sample aliquot followed by a preconcentration step by compact solid phase extraction (c-SPE) and subsequent instrumental analysis by ultra-high-performance-liquid-chromatography (UHPLC) coupled to mass spectrometry in tandem (MS/MS) by a triple quadrupole, was successfully validated as a very sensitive (method limit of quantification in the low ng g-1) and reliable method (relative recoveries around 100% and method repeatability featured by a general relative standard deviation below 20%). Provided raw data was intended to be processed by matrix-matched quantification approach. The resulting methodology was applied to the characterization of several pig manures from different Spanish farms sampled across breeding season between 2018 and 2019. Sample precedence showed to have a high impact in the positives, its frequency and concentration.

Abstract
A simultaneous extraction and cleanup method was optimized and validated for the determination of 40 antibiotics from cephalosporin, fluoroquinolone, lincosamide, macrolide, nitroimidazole, quinolone, sulfonamide and tetracycline groups in sediments by liquid chromatography with tandem quadrupole mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). The method involved hydration of freeze-dried sediment sample (2.0 g) with 2.5 ml of 0.1 M Na-EDTA McIlvaine buffer and extraction with 5 ml of MeOH and MeCN (1:3 v/v) followed by dispersive solid phase extraction by using 100 mg mix of C18 and PSA (1:2 w/w) and 50 mg MgSO4 prior to LC-MS/MS analysis. The method was validated for 10, 20, 50 and 100 µg/kg spiking levels by using blank sediment sample obtained from a drinking water reservoir according to the guidelines of European Commission Decision (2002) 2002/657/EC. The method produced clean extracts with generally low matrix effect during LC-MS/MS analysis. The mean recoveries ranged between 24-162%, 48-151%, 51-159%, and 50-149% for 10, 20, 50 and 100 µg/kg spiking levels, respectively, with acceptable precision. The analytical method was sensitive enough to achieve 0.01-34.3 µg/kg and 0.03-115 µg/kg limits of detection and quantitation, respectively. The scope of the method was demonstrated by analyzing complex solid environmental matrices (chicken manure, swine manure, poultry feed and soil) spiked at 10, 20, 50 and 100 µg/kg levels. The method was also applied for the antibiotic analysis in samples with incurred residues. Different matrices in the order of the magnitude as sediments < poultry feed < swine manure < soil < chicken manure were detected with the residues of fluoroquinolone, macrolide, sulfonamide and tetracycline antibiotics.

Abstract
Quantification of extractable antibiotics in soils is important to assessing their bioavailability and mobility, and ultimately their ecotoxicological and health risks. This study aimed to establish a biosensor method for detecting extractable tetracyclines in soils (Alfisol, Mollisol, and Ultisol) using whole-cell biosensors containing a reporter plasmid (pMTGFP or pMTmCherry) carrying fluorescent protein genes tightly controlled by tetracyclines-responsive control region (tetRO). This whole-cell biosensor method can simultaneously measure 96 or more samples within 6 h and is easily parallelizable, whereas a typical high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method may require 7 times more of analysis time and much greater cost to achieve similar analytical throughput. The biosensor method had a detection limit for each of six tetracyclines between 5.32-10.2 μg/kg soil, which is considered adequate for detecting tetracyclines in ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) extracts of soils. Relative standard deviation was between 19.8-51.2% for the biosensor Escherichia coli DH5α/pMTGFP and 2.98-25.8% for E. coli DH5α/pMTmCherry, respectively, suggesting that E. coli DH5α/pMTmCherry was superior to E. coli DH5α/pMTGFP for detecting extractable tetracyclines in soils. This new, fast, easily parallelizable, and cost-effective biosensor method has the potential for measuring extractable concentrations of tetracyclines for a large number of soil samples in large-scale monitoring studies.

Abstract
Micropollutants with high ecotoxicological risks are frequently detected in aquatic environments, which has aroused great concern in recent years. Humification is one of the most important natural detoxification processes of aquatic micropollutants, and the core reactions of this process are polymerization and coupling. During humification, micropollutants are incorporated into the macrostructures of humic substances and precipitated from aqueous systems into sediments. However, the similarities and differences among the polymerization/coupling pathways of micropollutants in different oxidative systems have not been systematically summarized in a review. This article reviews the current knowledge on the weak oxidation-induced spontaneous polymerization/coupling transformation of micropollutants. First, four typical weak oxidative conditions for the initiation of micropollutant polymerization reactions in aquatic environments are compared: enzymatic catalysis, biomimetic catalysis, metal oxide oxidation, and photo-initiated oxidation. Second, three major subsequent spontaneous transformation pathways of micropollutants are elucidated: radical polymerization, nucleophilic addition/substitution and cyclization. Different solution conditions are also summarized. Furthermore, the importance of toxicity evolution during the weak oxidation-induced coupling/polymerization of micropollutants is particularly emphasized. This review provides a new perspective for the transformation mechanism and pathways of micropollutants from aquatic systems into sediments and the atmosphere and offers theoretical support for developing micropollutant control technologies.

Abstract
The application of anaerobically digested cattle manure on agricultural land for both improving its quality and recycling a farm waste is an increasingly frequent practice in line with the circular economy. However, knowledge on the potential risk of spreading antibiotic resistance through this specific practice is quite scarce. The antibiotic sulfamethoxazole (SMX) is one of the most heavily prescribed in veterinary medicine. In this study, SMX dissipation and the possible effects on natural microorganisms were investigated in a soil amended with an anaerobically digested cattle manure produced from a biogas plant inside a livestock farm. Microcosm experiments were performed using amended soil treated with SMX (20 mg/kg soil). During the experimental time (61 days), soil samples were analysed for SMX and N4-acetylsulfamethoxazole, microbial abundance, activity and structure. Furthermore, the prevalence of the intI1 gene was also determined. The overall results showed that, although there was an initial negative effect on microbial abundance, SMX halved in about 7 days in the digestate-amended soil. The intI1 gene found in both the digestate and amended soil suggested that the use of anaerobically digested cattle manure as fertilizer can be a source of antibiotic resistant bacteria (ARBs) and genes (ARGs) in agroecosystems.

Abstract
The fate of antibiotics and their metabolites in soils after application of organic waste depends on their environmental availability, which depends on the quality and biodegradability of the added exogenous organic matter (EOM). This study aimed at better understanding the fate of sulfamethoxazole (SMX) and N-acetyl-sulfamethoxazole (AcSMX) metabolite added to soils via sludge compost or cow manure application, during a 28-day incubation. Experimental results obtained for mineralized, extractable, and non-extractable fractions as well as EOM mineralization were used to couple SMX and AcSMX dynamics to the EOM evolution using the COP-Soil model. According to various mechanisms of extraction, CaCl2, EDTA and cyclodextrin solutions extracted contrasted available fractions (31-96% on day 0), resulting in different sets of parameter values in the model. CaCl2 extraction was the best method to assess the sulfonamide availability, leading to low relative root mean squared errors and best simulations of SMX and AcSMX dynamics. The decrease of SMX and AcSMX availability over time went with the formation of non-extractable residues, mostly of physicochemical origin. Using the COP-Soil model, the co-metabolism was assumed to be responsible for the formation of biogenic non-extractable residues and the low mineralization of SMX and AcSMX.

Abstract
Antibiotics are frequently introduced into agricultural soils with the application of sewage sludge or farm organic fertilizers. Repeated exposure of soils to a pollutant can enrich for microbial populations that metabolize the chemical, reducing its environmental persistence. In London, Canada, soils from a long-term field experiment have received different concentrations of antibiotics annually for several years. The purpose of the present study was to assess the bioavailability of sulfamethazine, erythromycin, or ciprofloxacin through aqueous extractions with borax or EDTA solutions and their biodegradation following different soil exposure scenarios. Control soils and soils treated annually in the field with 10 mg antibiotics per kg were sampled, supplemented in the laboratory with radiolabeled antibiotic either added directly or carried in dairy manure. Sulfamethazine and erythromycin were initially more bioavailable than ciprofloxacin, with aqueous extractabilities representing 60, 36, and 8%, respectively. Sulfamethazine and erythromycin were degraded in soils, with a larger fraction mineralized in the long-term exposed soil (20 and 65%, respectively) than in control soil (0.4 and 3%, respectively) after 7 days of incubation. In contrast, ciprofloxacin was not mineralized neither in control nor long-term exposed soils. The mineralized fractions were similar for antibiotics added directly to soil or carried in dairy manure.

Abstract
Sludge recycled in agriculture may bring antibiotics into cropped soils. The nature, total amount, and availability of the antibiotics in soil partly depend on the sludge treatments. Our paper compares the fate of N-acetyl sulfamethoxazole (AC-SMX) residues between soils incubated with the same sludge but submitted to different processes before being added in soil. The fate of 14C-AC-SMX residues was studied in mixtures of soil and sludges at different treatment levels: 1) activated and 2) centrifuged sludges, both enriched with 14C-AC-SMX, and 3) limed and 4) heat-dried sludges obtained by treating the previously contaminated centrifuged sludge. The evolution of the extractability of 14C residues (CaCl2, methanol) and their mineralization were followed during 119 days. More than 80% of the initial 14C-activity was no longer extractable after 14 days, except in soil with limed sludge. Liming and drying the centrifuged sludge decreased the mineralized 14C fraction from 5.7-6.4% to 1.2-1.8% and consequently, the corresponding soils contained more 14C residues after 119 days. Although 14C residues were more CaCl2-extractable in soil with limed sludge, they seemed to be poorly bioavailable for biodegradation. For all solid sludges, the mineralization rate of 14C-AC-SMX residues was strongly correlated to that of sludge organic carbon, with a coefficient three times lower for the limed and dried sludges than for the centrifuged sludge after 14 days.
