Vergara-Luis I, Rutkoski CF, Urionabarrenetxea E, Almeida EA, Anakabe E, Olivares M, Soto M, Prieto A. Antimicrobials in Eisenia fetida earthworms: A comprehensive study from method development to the assessment of uptake and degradation. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2024; 922:171214. [PMID: 38408672 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2024.171214] [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: 12/14/2023] [Revised: 02/20/2024] [Accepted: 02/21/2024] [Indexed: 02/28/2024]
Abstract
In this work, an accurate analytical method was developed for the simultaneous analysis of twenty-seven antimicrobials (AMs) in earthworms using liquid chromatography coupled to a triple quadrupole mass spectrometry detector (UHPLC-MS/MS). Adequate apparent recoveries (80-120 %) and limits of quantification (LOQ) (1 μg·kg-1 - 10 μg·kg-1) were obtained, with the exception of norfloxacin (34 μg·kg-1). The method was applied to evaluate the accumulation of sulfamethazine (SMZ) and tetracycline (TC) in earthworms after performing OECD-207 toxicity test, in which Eisenia fetida (E. fetida) organisms were exposed to soils spiked with 10 mg·kg-1, 100 mg·kg-1 or 1000 mg·kg-1 of SMZ and TC, individually. The results confirmed the bioaccumulation of both AMs in the organisms, showing a greater tendency to accumulate SMZ since higher bioconcentration factor values were obtained for this compound at the exposure concentrations tested. In addition, the degradation of both AMs in both matrices, soils and earthworms was studied using liquid chromatography coupled to a q-Orbitrap high resolution mass spectrometry detector. Thirteen transformation products (TPs) were successfully identified, eight of them being identified for the first time in soil/earthworm (such as 4-Amino-3-chloro-n-(4,6-dimethylpyrimidin-2-yl)benzenesulfonamide or 4-(dimethylamino)-1,11,12a-trihydroxy-6,6-dimethyl-3,7,10,12-tetraoxo-3,4,4a,5,5a,6,7,10,12,12a-decahydrotetracene-2-carboxamide, among others) and their formation/degradation trend over time was also studied. Regarding the biological effects, only SMZ caused changes in earthworm growth, evidenced by weight loss in earthworms exposed to concentrations of 100 mg·kg-1 and 1000 mg·kg-1. Riboflavin decreased at all concentrations of SMZ, as well as at the highest concentration of TC. This indicates that these antibiotics can potentially alter the immune system of E. fetida. This research represents a significant advance in improving our knowledge about the contamination of soil by AM over time. It investigates the various ways in which earthworms are exposed to AMs, either by skin contact or ingestion. Furthermore, it explores how these substances accumulate in earthworms, the processes by which earthworms break them down or metabolise them, as well as the resulting TPs. Finally, it examines the potential effects of these substances on the environment.

Complementarity of Matrix- and Nanostructure-Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization Approaches. NANOMATERIALS 2019; 9:nano9020260. [PMID: 30769830 PMCID: PMC6410089 DOI: 10.3390/nano9020260] [Citation(s) in RCA: 25] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/30/2019] [Revised: 02/08/2019] [Accepted: 02/11/2019] [Indexed: 01/06/2023]
Abstract
In recent years, matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) has become the main tool for the study of biological macromolecules, such as protein nano-machines, especially in the determination of their molecular masses, structure, and post-translational modifications. A key role in the classical process of desorption and ionization of the sample is played by a matrix, usually a low-molecular weight weak organic acid. Unfortunately, the interpretation of mass spectra in the mass range of below m/z 500 is difficult, and hence the analysis of low molecular weight compounds in a matrix-assisted system is an analytical challenge. Replacing the classical matrix with nanomaterials, e.g., silver nanoparticles, allows improvement of the selectivity and sensitivity of spectrometric measurement of biologically important small molecules. Nowadays, the nanostructure-assisted laser desorption/ionization (NALDI) approach complements the classic MALDI in the field of modern bioanalytics. In particular, the aim of this work is to review the recent advances in MALDI and NALDI approaches.

Abstract
Sorption mechanisms of an antibiotic sulfamethazine (SMT) to humin (HM) isolated from a peat soil and its subfractions after sequential treatments were examined. The treatments of HM included removal of ash, O-alkyl carbon, lipid, and lignin components. The HF/HCl de-ashing treatment removed a large amount of minerals (mainly silicates), releasing a fraction of hydrophobic carbon sorption domains that previously were blocked, increasing the sorption of SMT by 33.3%. The de-O-alkyl carbon treatment through acid hydrolysis greatly reduced polarity of HM samples, thus weakening the interaction between sorbents with water at the interfaces via H-bonding, leaving more effective sorption sites. Sorption of SMT via mechanisms such as van der Waals forces and π-π interactions was enhanced by factors of 2.04-2.50. After removing the lipid/lignin component with the improved Soxhlet extraction/acid hydrolysis, the organic carbon content-normalized sorption enhancement index Eoc was calculated. The results demonstrated that the Eoc-lipid for SMT (16.9%) was higher than Eoc-lignin (10.1%), implying that removal of unit organic carbon mass of lipid led to a higher increase in sorption strength than that of lignin. As each component was progressively removed from HM, the sorption strength and isotherm nonlinearity of the residual HM samples for SMT were gradually enhanced. The Koc values of SMT by HM samples were positively correlated with their aromatic carbon contents, implying that π-π electron donor-acceptor interactions between the benzene ring of sorbate and the aromatic domains in HM played a significant role in their interactions.

Abstract
Manure composting has general benefits for production of soil amendment, but the effects of composting on antibiotic persistence and effects of antibiotics on the composting process are not well-characterized, especially for antibiotics commonly used in dairy cattle. This study provides a comprehensive, head-to-head, replicated comparison of the effect of static and turned composting on typical antibiotics used in beef and dairy cattle in their actual excreted form and corresponding influence on composting efficacy. Manure from steers (with or without chlortetracycline, sulfamethazine, and tylosin feeding) and dairy cows (with or without pirlimycin and cephapirin administration) were composted at small scale (wet mass: 20-22 kg) in triplicate under static and turned conditions adapted to represent US Food and Drug Administration guidelines. Thermophilic temperature (>55°C) was attained and maintained for 3 d in all composts, with no measureable effect of compost method on the pattern, rate, or extent of disappearance of the antibiotics examined, except tylosin. Disappearance of all antibiotics, except pirlimycin, followed bi-phasic first-order kinetics. However, individual antibiotics displayed different fate patterns in response to the treatments. Reduction in concentration of chlortetracycline (71-84%) and tetracycline (66-72%) was substantial, while near-complete removal of sulfamethazine (97-98%) and pirlimycin (100%) was achieved. Tylosin removal during composting was relatively poor. Both static and turned composting were generally effective for reducing most beef and dairy antibiotic residuals excreted in manure, with no apparent negative impact of antibiotics on the composting process, but with some antibiotics apparently more recalcitrant than others.

Abstract
Batch sorption of sulfamethazine was conducted using five soils with organic carbon (OC) contents ranging from 0.1% to 3.8% and solution pHs ranging from 5.5 to 9. Sorption of sulfamethazine was found to be impacted by OC, soil surface area and soil solution pH, with higher K(d) values for soils with higher OC and lower K(d) values as the pH increased. However, OC was found to be the more dominant parameter. Linear partition coefficients at pH 5.5 were found to be 0.58+/-0.17 Lkg(-1) for soil with 0.1% OC and 3.91+/-0.36 Lkg(-1) for soil with 3.8% OC. At pH 9, the K(d) values were found to decrease by more than 50% to 0.23+/-0.06 Lkg(-1) (soil with 0.1% OC) and 1.16+/-0.05 Lkg(-1) (soil with 3.8% OC). Hydrophobic sorption was probably involved for pH<7.4 (pK(a,2)=7.4 for sulfamethazine) due to the non-ionized form of sulfamethazine while surface sorption was probably involved for pH>7.4 due to the ionized form of sulfamethazine. This was confirmed by regressing the estimated sorption coefficients of cationic, uncharged, and anionic species against the soil properties. A stepwise linear regression model incorporating the anionic fraction of sulfamethazine ionization and soil properties were developed and were found to estimate the K(d) values of other studies using soils of different pH and soil properties.

Abstract
There has been recent emphasis on developing better methods for detecting diseases of zoonotic and veterinary importance. This has been prompted by an increase in human disease agents detectable in environmental samples, the potential for bioterrorism, and the lowering of international trade barriers and expansion of personal travel, which are bringing previously considered exotic diseases to new geographical localities. To appreciate the complexities of developing detection methods and working with environmental samples, it is appropriate to review technologies currently in use, as well as those in development and presently limited to research laboratories. Discussion of parasite detection would not be possible without including methods for parasite sampling, concentration, and purification because it is often necessary to process large sample volumes prior to analysis, and no reliable methods are available for significantly amplifying parasites in vitro. Reviewing proven methods currently in use will provide a baseline for generating, accepting and implementing the more sensitive and specific methods under development today.
