Mitigation of bacteria through discharge is essential to prevent dissemination downstream. Chemical disinfection of culture water is feasible compared to other methods of bacterial inactivation. Objective To study the effect of different disinfectant agent’s viz., chlorine, Fenton’s reagent, and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) on inactivation of bacteria from shrimp pond water Methods The water samples were subjected to treatment with various concentrations of chlorine (0.0, 1.0, 2.5, 5.0 and 10.0 mg L−1), Fenton’s reagent (1:10 mM ratio of Fe2+:H2O2; 2:20, 3:30, 4:40, 5:50) and H2O2 (20, 30, 40 and 50 mM) for different time durations (5 min, 15 min, 30 min and 60 min). Results The results indicated that all the disinfecting agents inactivated both the total heterotrophic bacteria and tetracycline-resistant bacteria with increased concentrations and time. At the end of 60 min treatment with chlorination (2.5 mg Cl2 L−1), Fenton’s reagent (2 mM Fe2+ + 20 mM H2O2) and H2O2 (50 mM H2O2), the total heterotrophic bacterial count in the water samples gradually decreased by 2.35, 2.65, and 1.38 log10 CFU mL−1, and tetracycline-resistant bacteria count reduced by 1.57, 1.66, and 1.43 log10 CFU mL−1, respectively from initial bacterial load. Conclusions The study revealed that disinfection agents can be successfully employed in the inactivation of antibiotic-resistant bacteria discharged through aquaculture water. Among three disinfection agents, Fenton’s reagent has been found effective in inhibiting both heterotrophic bacteria and tetracycline-resistant bacteria from water samples. Highlights Bacterial inactivation studies were carried with Chlorination, Fenton’s reagent, and Hydrogen peroxide. The highest decrease in HPC (2.65 log) and tetracycline-resistant bacterial (1.66 log) was noticed in the water samples treated with Fenton’s reagent. The use of disinfection agents effectively mitigates antibiotic-resistant bacteria from aquaculture wastewater.","PeriodicalId":15003,"journal":{"name":"Journal of AOAC International","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2024-09-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142268352","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Analytical methods for evaluating IVE in pharmaceutical products are found in the literature and in official compendiums. However, the vast majority of them do not have an eco-friendly approach. Objective and Method The aim of this review is to present an overview of existing analytical methods for evaluating IVE in pharmaceutical matrices in the context of Green Analytical Chemistry (GAC) and show possibilities for increasing their greenness. Results GAC is a current alternative to promote sustainable development in laboratories and chemical-pharmaceutical industries, therefore, through its principles, such as reducing the use of aggressive solvents, it is possible to make processes more ecological. However, the vast majority of analytical methods available in the literature and official compendiums do not present an eco-friendly approach. 70% of the methods are by HPLC. Among the various pharmaceutical matrices, the most evaluated are tablets (37%). Of all the solvents used in HPLC, UPLC, HPLC-MS/MS, UV and TLC methods, the combination of methanol and acetonitrile is the most chosen, accounting for more than 50% of occurrences.

Eight different laboratories throughout the world participated in the study tested the same set of 6 different laboratory samples of raw materials (commercial) and formulated products (commercial), and all the laboratories successfully generated results within the acceptance criteria. Objective The intention of the study was to evaluate specificity, precision (variation), linearity/range, system suitability, limit of detection (LOD), and limit of quantitation (LOQ) by multiple laboratories to satisfy the requirement of moving the OMA 2016.09 to the final action status. Accuracy and ruggedness were already validated in earlier work of single laboratory validation (1), and it was not necessary to include these validation parameters in the multi-laboratory validation study. Method Laboratory samples containing Aloe were sent out to participating laboratories. Each lab followed AOAC 2016.09 (First Action status) to analyze contents of aloin A, aloin B, and aloe emodin using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) instrument. The results generated by each laboratory were collected and evaluated. Results The specificity results show that blank and matrix chromatograms do not contain major interfering peaks on the retention time of aloin A, aloin B, and aloe-emodin. The precision (variation) results of duplicated preparations are not more than 0.05 parts per million (ppm) different. The linearity/range results from six standards (10 parts per billion (ppb), 20 ppb, 40 ppb, 80 ppb, 160 ppb, and 500 ppb) have correlation coefficient (R) value of ≥ 0.999. The system suitability results meet the acceptance criteria to show the instrument validity. The limit of detection (LOD) results show that the signal-to-noise (S/N) ratio of 10 ppb standards for all three components are about 3. The limit of quantitation (LOQ) results show that the S/N ratio of 20 ppb standards for all three components are about 10. Conclusions The validation parameters (specificity, precision (variation), linearity/range, system suitability, LOD, and LOQ) have been successfully analyzed, and it shows that the test method is suitable for its intended use. Highlights The test method has been successfully validated by the eight different laboratories around the world (US, UK, Germany, and Canada). Each of the laboratory is managed independently by the site lab management team.

Although environmental accumulation or inadvertent introduction of toxic elements (arsenic, cadmium, lead, and mercury) is a potential source of exposure in botanical dietary supplement products, the majority of the dietary supplement SRMs/RMs do not have values assigned for the four major toxic elements. Objective To determine As, Cd, Pb, and Hg content in the current inventory of NIST botanical dietary supplement SRMs/RMs. Methods Fifteen SRMs/RMs suites of plant part, extract, and finished products [i.e., solid oral dosage form (SODF)] were analyzed for As, Cd, Pb, and Hg using nitric acid microwave-assisted digestion followed by quantification using inductively coupled plasma—mass spectrometry. Results Results for control samples were in good agreement with certified values indicating that the analyses of 38 individual botanical SRMs/RMs were in control. Characterization of linked plant/extract SRMs/RMs derived from the same source materials demonstrated that while extraction processes can often yield extracts with lower toxic element content for Hg or As, it is also possible for mass fraction levels to remain unchanged or even increase following extraction. Conclusion The results fill significant knowledge gaps in toxic element content ranges for SRMs/RMs where no NIST assigned values existed, in particular for Hg content and for extract and SODF matrices. With comprehensive toxic element content now available, researchers can better select appropriate dietary supplement SRMs/RMs for use as controls in the analysis of dietary supplement ingredients and products.

The prevalence of mislabelling and adulterants is primarily found in FA products. Using UV-Vis spectroscopy to differentiate between real and fake FA products is practical and desirable. Objective The objective of this study was to expand the data set generated using a UV-VIS based method proposed by Mayhew et al., 2023. Methods In total, thirty (30) test samples were used to generate ninety test portions (3 replicates per test sample) for analysis using the UV-Vis methodology outlined in Mayhew et al., 2023, which in this study is referred to as the UVAC (UV absorbance confirmation) method. Results None of the thirteen FA test samples investigated were determined as humified using the UVAC method. The FA samples studied comprised of two IHSS standards, five commercial FA products (CFAP) and six full FA fractions (SFA), which were isolated from six known solid humic material sources (SHMS). There was a leonardite, a humalite, and four peat sources used as the SHMS. Analysis of the neutralized extract of the SHMS found only 3/6 SHMS were determined as humified. Six HA (SHA) test samples were also generated by isolating the HA from the SHMS and only 3/6 SHA were determined as humified. Conclusion Given the high prevalence of false determinations more work is needed to improve the method so it can be used by industry or regulators.
