This study employed a meta-analysis to systematically investigate the aforementioned issues on the basis of 1,085 published datasets of indoor hydroponic simulation experiments. A hierarchical meta-analysis model with an embedded variance covariance matrix was constructed to eliminate the non-independence and shared controls of the data. Overall, the co-exposure resulted in a notable reduction in PFAS bioaccumulation (cumulative effect size, CES = − 0.4287, p < 0.05) and bioconcentration factor (R<sup>2</sup> = 0.9507, k < 1, b < 0) in hydroponics. In particular, the inhibition of PFAS bioconcentration induced by dissolved organic matter (percentage form of the effect size, ES<sub>P</sub> = − 48.98%) was more pronounced than that induced by metal ions (ES<sub>P</sub> = − 35.54%), particulate matter (ES<sub>P</sub> = − 24.70%) and persistent organic pollutants (ES<sub>P</sub> = − 18.66%). A lower AS concentration and a lower concentration ratio of ASs to PFASs significantly promote PFAS bioaccumulation (p < 0.05). The bioaccumulation of PFASs with long chains or high fluoride contents tended to be exacerbated in the presence of ASs. Furthermore, the effect on PFAS bioaccumulation was also significantly dependent on the duration of co-exposure (p < 0.05). The findings of this study provide novel insights into the fate and bioconcentration of PFAS in aquatic environments under co-exposure conditions.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":8377,"journal":{"name":"Archives of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology","volume":"87 3","pages":"270 - 286"},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2024-10-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142374995","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"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}

All three compounds led to arrested fertility after 24 h of exposure, except for the 7-day EE2 treatment which still decreased reproduction. Moreover, independently of time of exposure, EE2 induced VTG production in males, and decreased estrogen levels in females and testosterone levels in males. In contrast, TRB-induced VTG production in males, while the levels were not different from controls in females even though testosterone levels increased, and masculinization was observed. Finally, PRP led to a decrease in VTG levels which was only significant during the 21-day exposure, and surprisingly, no effect on steroid levels were observed despite its known effects on steroidogenesis. For two of the three EDCs tested, both times of exposure led to similar outcomes supporting the shortening of the FSTRA to seven days.

The geothermal power plant of Bouillante (Guadeloupe, Lesser Antilles) artificially enhances the release of hydrothermal water in shallow areas of the bay.

Concentrations of Hg in all samples from Bouillante were greater than those from the Control Site (2–627 times higher).

In agricultural basins, wetlands are exposed to agrochemical loads. This study aims to assess the attenuation effect of the ubiquitous macrophyte <i>Azolla</i> spp. on the toxicity of lambda-cyhalothrin to sensitive aquatic organisms. An indoor mesocosm experiment was conducted to compare the concentration of lambda-cyhalothrin at different time points after pesticide application in vegetated and unvegetated treatments, including a control without pesticide addition. Toxicity tests were performed throughout the experiment on three organisms: a fish (<i>Cnesterodon decemmaculatus</i>), a macroinvertebrate (<i>Hyalella curvispina</i>), and an amphibian (<i>Boana pulchella</i>). The results demonstrated that lambda-cyhalothrin concentration and toxicity in water were significantly lower in the <i>Azolla</i> spp. treatment. Furthermore, the half-life of lambda-cyhalothrin decreased from 1.2 days in the unvegetated treatment to 0.4 days in the vegetated treatment. The vegetated treatment also resulted in a significantly lower mortality rate for both <i>H. curvispina</i> and <i>C. decemmaculatus.</i> However, no mortality was observed in <i>B. pulchella</i> for any of the treatments. Sublethal effects were observed in this organism, such as lateral bending of the tail and impairment of the ability to swim, which were attenuated in the vegetated treatment. We conclude that <i>Azolla</i> spp. can effectively reduce the concentration and toxicity of lambda-cyhalothrin, suggesting its potential use in farm-scale best management practices to mitigate the effects of pesticide loads from adjacent crops.</p><h3>Graphical Abstract</h3>\u0000<div><figure><div><div><picture><source><img></source></picture></div></div></figure></div></div>","PeriodicalId":8377,"journal":{"name":"Archives of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology","volume":"87 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2024-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141858920","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"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}
