Published: April 1, 2025

Numerous occupational studies have highlighted the risk of cancer associated with agricultural practices and exposure to agrochemicals in males females workplace. Women working tea plantations/gardens often face educational, health, socioeconomic challenges. They may be particularly vulnerable pesticide owing a lack health awareness education, other limitations environmental factors. The objective review was highlight problem women through comprehensive appraisal published literature. Literature searches were performed using range keywords such as women, adverse birth outcomes, plantations/gardens, placental cancer, so forth online search engines, including PubMed, Web Science, Google Scholar, on. This reports that are frequently exposed pesticides during leaf plucking activities which lead pregnancy outcomes result altered function placenta, fetal growth restrictions, low weight (LBW) babies, sex-specific differences development. These effects pose potential poor type 2 diabetes mellitus, congenital defects leading neurobehavioral disorders childhood, even later life. on fetus plantation workers explained available epidemiological data animal studies. mechanism toxicity due involve disruption signaling pathway, toxicity, restricted Considering limited epidemiological, biomonitoring, pathological there is an urgent need for well-designed cohort delineate its consequences reproductive offspring.

Combination of Cu-BTC- and FeCo-MOF-Derived Carbon Enhanced Molecularly Imprinted Electrochemical Sensor for Highly Sensitive and Selective Detection of Benomyl in Fruits and Vegetables

Molecules, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 30(9), P. 1869 - 1869

Published: April 22, 2025

The development of sensitive and selective methods for detecting pesticide residues has become paramount ensuring food safety. In this work, a high-performance molecularly imprinted electrochemical sensor based on the composite Cu-BTC- FeCo-ZIF-derived N-doped carbon (FeCo@NC), synthesized by pyrolysis electrodeposition, was developed Benomyl (BN) detection. materials were characterized scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). sensing system, Cu-BTC/FeCo@NC used as electrode substrate displayed large specific surface area, high electronic conductivity, rich active catalytic sites, demonstrating excellent electrocatalytic ability toward BN oxidation. Meanwhile, Cu-BTC, with its abundant functional groups, facilitated strong hydrogen bonding interactions template molecule 3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene (EDOT), promoting formation uniform membrane material surface. introduced MIP-PEDOT could enhance recognition enrichment target BN, leading to an amplified detection signal. Thanks synergistic effects between MIP-PEDOT, proposed achieved low limit 1.67 nM. Furthermore, fabricated exhibited selectivity, reproducibility, interference resistance in BN. method been successfully applied determination vegetable fruit samples, indicating potential use practical applications.

Pesticide residues in traditional and industrial honey marketed in Morocco and potential health risk

Food Additives and Contaminants Part B, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 17(3), P. 230 - 240

Published: June 4, 2024

This study evaluated the presence of three pesticides methomyl (MET), carbendazim (CBZ) and chlorpyrifos-ethyl (CPE), as well degradation product CPE (3,5,6-trichloro-2-pyridinol; TCP), in 44 honey samples from all 12 regions Morocco. With a validated HPLC-UV method occurrence frequencies 63.6% for MET, 54.5% CBZ, 95.1% 34.1% TCP were obtained, even at concentrations higher than maximum residue limits TCP. Based on predominant pesticide, principal component analysis separated sampling into groups. Risk assessment indicated that ingestion these pesticides, alone or combination, did not pose risk to consumers (HQ HI < 1).

Abstract Background The tea plant, Camellia sinensis (L.) O. Kuntze, is an evergreen leafy plant whose tender leaves are used in the manufacturing of world’s second most consumed beverage—tea. production and consumption worldwide have continually increased over decades. All parts plant—leaf, stem, root, flower seed, fed upon by insect pests. This study elucidates metabolomic changes occurring response to infestation two major pests gardens: red spider mites mosquito bugs. These significantly impact both quantity quality production. secondary metabolites produced due pest attack has been analysed using GC–MS analysis laboratory. Results Mostly fatty acid derivatives were biosynthesized as revealed from result. In infestations, methyl stearate was found be along with chromatographic peaks compounds such caffeine, palmitate, linoleate, stigmasta-7,25-dien-3-ol. comparison respective control samples (leaf no attack), one attacked mite showed eighteen exclusive metabolites, whereas bug infested leaf six metabolites. Conclusions Some either or decreased their amount samples. reported insecticidal pesticidal properties respect controls. markers attacks i.e. defense mechanism induced phytochemicals according literature discussed this research.
