In this study, the potential sources and distribution characteristics of 12 legacy PFASs in the soil and rivers for irrigation purposes were investigated in farmland systems, and the risks posed by PFASs to earthworm and aquatic organisms were also assessed. Based on field investigations in Yangtze River Basin, we found long-chain perfluoroalkyl carboxylic acids (PFCAs) were the major contaminants in arable soil and rivers for irrigation purposes, with PFOA (Perfluorooctanoic acid) being the most dominant monomer. Concentration levels of PFASs in arable soil were strongly related to land use types, the average concentration of PFASs (341.18 ± 600.19 ng/g) in the paddy fields was 100-fold higher than that of dry fields (3.79 ± 4.11 ng/g). Source apportionment revealed that PFASs detected in paddy fields were mainly associated with industrial effluents, domestic sewage, and irrigation water. In rivers for irrigation purposes, higher PFASs contamination were primarily distributed in industrial areas, such as plastic processing, paper, textile and electronics factories. The PFASs in the irrigation river water posed a low-medium risk to daphnia and fish, while the PFASs (PFOA and perfluorododecanoic acid (PFDoDA)) in soil posed a medium-high risk to earthworms. These results provided insights that sewage irrigation caused serious pollution of PFASs in the agricultural environment, should be paid more attention.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":11539,"journal":{"name":"Emerging Contaminants","volume":"11 1","pages":"Article 100413"},"PeriodicalIF":5.3,"publicationDate":"2024-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2405665024001148/pdfft?md5=a6c9cb3ebfa345c7c67fcba69265907e&pid=1-s2.0-S2405665024001148-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142241036","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The widespread use of pesticides, such as organochlorine compounds (e.g., DDT, endrin) known for their persistence and bioaccumulation, poses significant risks to biodiversity, water quality, and food safety. By accumulating in the food chain, these substances threaten higher trophic levels and amplify the potential for adverse health outcomes, including acute poisoning, cancer, and neurological disorders. Specific examples such as glyphosate and atrazine illustrate the pervasive nature of pesticide contamination in various environments. Key findings include the association of pesticide exposure with increased risks of non-Hodgkin lymphoma and Parkinson's disease, and the development of antibiotic resistance in microbial communities. The review discusses potential remediation methods, including physicochemical techniques like photodegradation and advanced oxidation processes, as well as bioremediation strategies involving microbial degradation. Photodegradation rates are influenced by environmental factors such as sunlight intensity, soil properties, and organic matter content. Bioremediation using specific microbial consortia has shown promise in degrading persistent pesticides, enhancing soil recovery. Emphasizing the importance of integrated pest management (IPM), enhanced regulatory frameworks, and user education, this review advocates for a strategic shift towards practices that minimize environmental harm and safeguard human health. Implementing these measures can significantly contribute to the advancement of sustainable agriculture by reducing pesticide reliance and promoting ecological balance.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":11539,"journal":{"name":"Emerging Contaminants","volume":"11 1","pages":"Article 100410"},"PeriodicalIF":5.3,"publicationDate":"2024-08-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2405665024001112/pdfft?md5=70bf5c24ce40066d8914158a898a1d66&pid=1-s2.0-S2405665024001112-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142088281","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While IFMs are fortified with essential nutrients that are crucial for proper growth, they can also harbor non-essential toxic metal contaminants from various sources during the production process. Given the heightened vulnerability of newborns to such contaminants, it is imperative to thoroughly analyze, evaluate, and minimize the toxicity associated with the consumption of such IFMs. However, classical approaches to date, have been always adopted for assessing such risks by finding first the analytical concentration of metals in the IFMs followed by multiplying it by the average daily powder intake (ADI) then dividing by the average infant weight. The outcome is then compared to an established standard such a PTWI to assess the extent of toxicity. The drawback with such studies is the use of a fixed ADI for all samples as if all samples have the same and exact preparation directions while using somewhat different infant masses.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Accordingly, this study aims at assessing the toxic risk amongst newborns from IFM consumption through the identification and application of various highly important and toxicity-contributing parameters from each IFM and its directions of preparation label separately which are discussed here for the first time while providing comparisons between the classical approach versus our new approach to highlight its importance.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Seventy-three IFMs (0–6 months) were analyzed for lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd), arsenic (As), and aluminum (Al) levels and unlike previous studies, this work incorporated various feeding parameters from each IFM for calculating the intakes thus, revealing potential toxicity risks even in IFMs that are considered safe by the classical approach. Metal contamination was significant, with 97.3 % of samples containing detectable Pb, 41.1 % Cd, 16.4 % As, and 93.2 % Al while highlighting Pb in exceeding its maximum allowable level (MAL). This novel approach, which considers new diverse feeding schedules/parameters that are ironically suggested by manufacturers that have been previously overlooked elsewhere, emphasized IFMs' potential as sources of heightened metal toxicity in comparison to classical approaches. Results highlighted Pb and Al as major concerns, with As and Cd of lesser concern. Findings also emphasized the importance of such new parameters for safeguarding newborn health and should be payed attention to by caregivers. The study strongly and highly recommends adherence to &lt;em&gt;minimum feeding schedules (MFS)&lt;/em&gt; and proper scooping techniques to reduce newborn exposure to toxic metals.

Specifically, the combined exposure of PFASs was significantly associated with lipids (LP), among which serum PFNA contributed significantly to high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), and serum perfluorodecanoate (PFDeA) was significantly positively correlated with triglyceride (TG). Besides, a nonlinear dose-response relationship between PFASs and MetS was observed.

However, prior to their release, it is essential to assess the efficacy and potential effects of these protectants. Flupyradifurone (FBF) and sulfoxaflor (SFX), two insecticides commonly used to control aphids, have been found to exert negative effects on the growth and development of <em>Binodoxys communis</em> Gahan, a beneficial parasitic wasp that targets aphids. However, it remains unknown if FBF and SFX influence the symbiotic bacteria residing within <em>B. communis</em>. In this study, 16SrRNA sequencing was utilized to assess the populations of <em>B. communis</em> symbionts exposed to sublethal concentrations (LC<sub>10</sub> and LC<sub>25</sub>) of FBF and SFX. The control and treatment groups exhibited similar bacterial community structures, with <em>Bacteroidota</em> identified as the dominant phylum in each. After exposure to FBF and SFX, the diversity and richness of symbionts <em>(Firmicutes, Bacteroidota,</em> and <em>Actinobacteriota)</em> in <em>B. communis</em> changed notably. The two different insecticides and exposure durations exerted distinct effects on the microbial community. For instance, SFX stress resulted in a decrease in <em>Akkermansia</em> and an increase in <em>Escherichia Shigella</em> 1h after exposure, with both returning to baseline levels after 3d. In contrast, FBF exposure caused a reduction in <em>Akkermansia</em> presence after 1h, which persisted even after 3d. This study represents the first assessment of the effects of FBF and SFX exposure on symbiotic bacteria in <em>B. communis</em>, expanding our understanding of how insecticides influence natural enemies and their symbiotic bacterial relationships. This study provides theoretical guidance for field applications of FBF and SFX, as well as a reasonable basis for exploring chemical resistance conferred by symbiotic bacteria.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":11539,"journal":{"name":"Emerging Contaminants","volume":"11 1","pages":"Article 100395"},"PeriodicalIF":5.3,"publicationDate":"2024-07-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2405665024000969/pdfft?md5=2d976570f4ec3733b9e48917a864b4f4&pid=1-s2.0-S2405665024000969-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141952934","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
