Diclofenac (DFC) is an anti-inflammatory medication used as a first-line treatment for pain. Around 15% of DFC is unmetabolized after human consumption, leading to an increase in the opportunity to release DFC into the environment. DFC may build up in the environment over time, which increases its negative impacts on the ecosystem. Several biological, physical, and chemical techniques have been applied to treat DFC. This review provides an overview of the photodegradation of DFC including photodegradation efficiency, mechanism, the role of physicochemical parameters, and toxicity assessment. Generally, the photodegradation systems showed high efficiency in the removal. However, each experiment has been applied under different experimental conditions and different parameters such as the type and dosage of catalyst, the chosen wavelength of the radiation, pH, temperature, and additive concentration. This led to the differentiation in the photodegradation efficiency and photodegradation rate of DFC. We revealed that the physicochemical parameters of the photocatalytic process are a double edge sword. On the one hand, raising their values up to a certain point might help the treatment work well. On the other hand, a significant rise has a negative impact on the effectiveness of the treatment and raises the expense of the treatment operation. The toxicity tests indicated that most frequent DFC by-products are not safe, and their release into the environment may negatively affect the ecosystem. This review may provide a useful recommendation for future researchers who want to treat DFC by photodegradation and enables them to enhance the applicability of photodegradation.","PeriodicalId":21182,"journal":{"name":"Reviews of environmental contamination and toxicology","volume":"36 12","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135042824","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It belongs to a class of drugs called phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitors. There is a need for increased knowledge on epigenetic environmental toxicological mechanisms of new pollutant sildenafil, its metabolites and its potential environmental health impacts. The scope of the review determines the specific aspects of sildenafil metabolites and the impact of sildenafil on DNA methylation, histone modifications, and non-coding RNA expression. The review expounded that the emerging field of epigenetics has continued to reveal that sildenafil may have an impact beyond its intended purpose of treating erectile dysfunction. Several studies have suggested that sildenafil can alter the epigenetic marks on DNA, potentially leading to changes in gene expression and cellular behavior. Even though the full implications of these epigenetic changes are not yet fully understood, they may have far-reaching effects on human health and development. Further research is needed to fully understand the epigenetic effects of sildenafil and other pharmaceuticals and to develop strategies for mitigating any potential risks. It is crucial to consider the broader implications of drug use and to take a proactive approach to promoting public health and safety.","PeriodicalId":21182,"journal":{"name":"Reviews of environmental contamination and toxicology","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135996137","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

PFOS released from dumped solid waste may pose risks to humans and the environment. Great efforts have been made to identify, manage, and dispose of PFOS-containing solid wastes. Herein, we reviewed the relevant literature and regulations to give a complete view of international management practices and treatment technologies for PFOS-containing solid wastes. First, the occurrence and fate of PFOS in solid waste and in the environment, as well as the development of detection methods for PFOS in solid wastes are introduced. Then, relevant regulations from different countries and regions are reviewed and compared. Specific and feasible PFOS control regulations and standards must be developed based on the economic and pollution situations. Traditional disposal technologies such as incineration and landfill are still the mainstream methods for PFOS-containing solid wastes. However, several innovative and promising technologies, including pyrolysis, plasma, cement kiln co-treatment, and smoldering, have raised concern. The disposal efficiency, cost efficiency, and environmental impact of different technologies remain uncertain and deserve greater consideration. In addition, alternative research is briefly introduced. Based on the international experience, prospects for enhancing disposal technology research, preventing secondary pollution during disposal, and proactively developing safe alternatives are made for a summary.","PeriodicalId":21182,"journal":{"name":"Reviews of environmental contamination and toxicology","volume":"248 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136353061","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

They include many products with medical, healthcare or specific purposes for humans and/or animals, and exist ubiquitously in our daily lives. After their broad use and consumption, PPCPs are continuously released into earth's environment with pseudo persistent characteristics. More importantly, these pollutants may undergo transformation during environmental geochemistry processes, leading to the formation of transformation products (TPs) that may pose increased risks to human health and ecosystems. Particularly several TPs have been found to be higher concentrations and increased toxic effects as compared to the original PPCPs. Thus, in this critical review, we analyze the literatures on transformation mechanism of PPCPs during the environmental geochemistry processes, including hydrolysis, photochemical transformation, and biodegradation in water systems. The aquatic toxicity and health effects of PPCPs as well as their TPs are emphasized. Furthermore, the current challenges and recommendations for future research are also pointed out. This review will supply helpful information to better understand the behavior of PPCPs in environmental geochemistry processes from the viewpoint of mechanism, catalyzing a more comprehensive research on the risk assessment and management of PPCPs and their TPs in future.","PeriodicalId":21182,"journal":{"name":"Reviews of environmental contamination and toxicology","volume":"116 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136294457","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

After MNPs are released into the environment, they can interact with surrounding components and further be embedded within environmental substances, forming MNPs-carrier composites. Many studies have documented MNPs as individual particles. Yet, the specific impacts of environmental substances on the transport, fate, and eco-risks of MNPs-carrier composites have not been systematically analyzed. Here, we conducted a comprehensive review to illustrate the environmental carrier role for MNPs by different environmental substances and components, influencing their occurrence, transport route, transformation, and eco-effect, which calls for a reconsideration of the MNPs’ eco-/health-connectivity. Studies on MNPs’ environmental carrier in primary environmental domains reveal that in the atmosphere, MNPs-carrier composites are from nature-originated particulates followed by anthropogenic sources (e.g., traffic and industry exhausts); in the hydrosphere, various components (e.g., natural organic matter, extracellular polymeric substances, and proteins) can act as major carriers for MNPs; in the biosphere, microorganism and plant tissues can carry MNP-composites, which can be bioaccumulated and biomagnified through trophic transfer. Moreover, MNPs-carrier composites undergo distinct biogeochemical transformations in different environmental components, including aggregation, sedimentation, chemical transformation and dissolution, and the consequential biotransformation. Carriers’ impacts on MNPs’ environmental behavior manifested in changed bioavailability with widespread ecotoxicity via cellular uptake, oxidative stress and metal ions release, as well as in human health with adverse effects. Overall, this review can facilitate the understanding of MNPs-carrier composites’ origin, transformation, fate, and eco-/health risks in the environment, proposing future research needs.","PeriodicalId":21182,"journal":{"name":"Reviews of environmental contamination and toxicology","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135826557","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
