Integrating anaerobic and photochemical processes: UV–vis‐driven post‐treatment for micropollutant abatement and toxicity control in UASB secondary effluent

open access: yesJournal of Chemical Technology &Biotechnology, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Upflow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) reactors are widely used in low‐ and middle‐income countries, but secondary effluents may still contain organic micropollutants and residual toxicity. This study evaluated UV–Vis photolysis and UV/H2O2 as post‐treatment options for UASB secondary effluent (SE), integrating micropollutant ...

Sustainable and miniaturized electrochemical sensors for glyphosate and parabens: integrating biomass‐derived carbons, FDM fabrication, and portable instrumentation

open access: yesJournal of Chemical Technology &Biotechnology, EarlyView.
Abstract Glyphosate and parabens are chemically distinct emerging contaminants whose field monitoring is constrained by complex matrices and by the cost and infrastructure requirements of conventional laboratory methods. This review evaluates whether biomass‐derived carbon materials, fused deposition modeling (FDM), and portable electrochemical ...

Bringing the Lab to the Field: Exploring Water‐Borne Corticosterone as a Physiological Indicator in Captive and Wild Common Frog Larvae (Rana temporaria)

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Assessing physiological condition in wild populations is important for understanding how environmental variation shapes organismal performance. Water‐borne corticosterone (WB‐CORT) sampling shows promise for studying amphibian stress physiology, but its ecological relevance and limitations require evaluation, particularly when methods ...

Exposure to pesticides in bats

Science of The Total Environment, 2021
(Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) Bats provide a variety of ecological services that are essential to the integrity of ecosystems. Indiscriminate use of pesticides has been a threat to biodiversity, and the exposure of bats to these xenobiotics is a threat to their populations.

Environmental and occupational pesticide exposure and human sperm parameters: a Navigation Guide review.

Toxicology, 2021
Global sperm counts have declined in recent decades, coinciding with the proliferation of endocrine-disrupting chemicals, of which pesticides are some of the most common. Previous systematic reviews of epidemiologic studies published between 1991 through

Exposure of Spraymen to Pesticides

Archives of Environmental Health: An International Journal, 1972
Values for potential dermal and respiratory exposure, and for total exposure in terms of fraction of toxic dose were determined for 11 different pesticides during orchard spraying with air-blast application equipment. Highest total exposure was calculated to be only 1.12% of a toxic dose per hour for workers applying the organophosphorus compound ...

Biomarkers of Pesticide Exposure

1992
Incorporation of biomarkers in studies of occupational exposure hazards is now recognized as a highly useful adjunct to the surrogate measures employed in the past, for example, time worked, ambient air data, interview responses. Application to studies of workers potentially exposed to pesticides has barely begun and provides many challenges to chemist/

Pesticide exposure and risk of cardiovascular disease: A systematic review

Global Public Health, 2020
The increase in pesticide consumption has a negative health impact. Studies point to an association between exposure to pesticides and cardiovascular disease (CVD), one of the leading causes of world mortality.

Analysis of honey bee exposure to multiple pesticide residues in the hive environment.

Science of the Total Environment, 2021
Since the loss of honeybees in hives could have a greater impact on colony health than those of their foraging bees, it is imperative to know beehives' pesticide exposure via oral ingestion of contaminated in-hive matrices.

Gut microbiota: a key factor in the host health effects induced by pesticide exposure?.

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2020
In the past few decades, a large number of pesticides have been widely used for plant protection. Pesticides may enter non-target organisms through multiple ways and bring potential health risks.
