Moreover, addressing the complex and multi-sectoral nature of AMR requires a multifaceted response that includes enhanced surveillance, environmental monitoring, standardized methods, and innovative technologies. These efforts are essential to promote the effective implementation of regulations and policies aimed at tackling the risks posed by AMR.

This short review aims to summarize key studies on exposure pathways and sublethal effects of bioinsecticides on honey bees, highlighting outdated risk assessment paradigms and critical evaluation issues. We discuss the need for novel approaches, such as molecular techniques and AI technologies, to better understand and mitigate the effects of bioinsecticides on honey bees.

This study provides an overview of the production, use, and current data on PFOA ending in wastewater treatment plants and highlight the importance of adsorbent-based removal of PFOA from wastewater. Research studies highlight that traditional wastewater treatment methods, including using low-pressure membranes, struggle to eliminate PFOA effectively. In contrast, biochar-based nanomaterials and composites used as adsorbents have emerged as a promising removal technique. However, the adsorption of PFOA is governed by multiple mechanisms, including electrostatic interactions, hydrophobic interactions, ligand exchange processes, and hydrogen bonding. We recommend that using adsorbent-based filter beds can be a cost-effective and sustainable solution for managing PFOA in wastewater, particularly in developing economies.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":52296,"journal":{"name":"Current Opinion in Environmental Science and Health","volume":"41 ","pages":"Article 100565"},"PeriodicalIF":6.7,"publicationDate":"2024-07-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141853202","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}
