Even though groundwater provides the largest share of German drinking water supply, regionally, these resources have to be complemented by surface waters, which are locally exceeding the German drinking water guidance value of 5 μg/L. Contamination predominantly originates from wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) effluents as major point sources. Case studies show that commonly applied raw water extraction methods such as river bank filtration (RBF) do not act as sufficient barriers against source water contamination with 1,4-dioxane, consequently, drinking water concentrations of up to > 2 μg/L were determined. Emission mitigation measures as advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) were assessed and resulted in a reduction of surface and drinking water concentrations. Since 1,4-dioxane has also been proven to be a contaminant in German groundwater in concentrations of up to 152 μg/L at selected sites, drinking water relevant groundwater should be increasingly monitored.</div>","PeriodicalId":52296,"journal":{"name":"Current Opinion in Environmental Science and Health","volume":"30 ","pages":"Article 100391"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76369095","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Soil fauna includes many different organisms such as earthworms, Collembola, mites, and nematodes and its activity is essential for maintaining a correct level of soil productivity and health. Once MNPs are ingested by terrestrial animals, they can cause several negative physiological effects including gut dysbiosis. MNPs driven changes in gut microbiota are often overlooked but could result in significant ecosystemic risks. Our current opinion is that gut dysbiosis can have repercussions on soil microbial community composition, functioning and on ecosystemic services. Furthermore, the current number of studies on the effects of MNPs on soil fauna gut microbiome is still very limited. Future research should thus further investigate the effects of MNPs on gut microbiota.

Metallic toys and jewelry form the most problematic category. Children's exposure scenarios to contaminated items include ingestion, mouthing, and dermal contact (in order of severity). Using PTE bioaccessibility (migratable fraction in physiological fluids) in risk characterization helps assessing risks more accurately than using total PTE concentrations. Key research challenges with bioaccessibility include test improvements, standardization, and in vivo validation. Legal limits should be ideally implemented on migratable (instead of total) PTE concentrations for toys, children's jewelry, and other children's goods. Furthermore, jewelry testing for legal limits should be conducted on damaged items (simulating mouthing behavior) as damage to metallic items could cause drastic increases in PTE bioaccessibility.
