Homegrown food serves as an important human exposure source of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), yet little is known about their spatiotemporal distribution within among private gardens. This knowledge essential for more accurate site-specific risk assessment, identification new sources evaluating the effectiveness regulations. The present study evaluated changes legacy emerging PFAS in surface soil from vegetable gardens (N = 78) chicken enclosures 102), well homegrown eggs 134) gardens, across Province Antwerp (Belgium). Hereby, potential influence wind orientation distance towards a major fluorochemical plant was examined. ∑short-chain precursor concentrations were higher garden (8.68 ng/g dry weight (dw)) compared to enclosure (4.43 dw) (0.77 wet (ww)), while long-chain sulfonates C11−14 carboxylates showed opposite trend. Short-term (2018/2019–2022) mostly absent soil, soils oriented S-SW nearby (<4 km) characterized by local, high-concentration plume. Moreover, SE remotely site widespread, diffuse but relatively low-concentration Long-term data (2010–2022) suggest that phaseout regulatory measures have been effective, PFOS declined 25.8 2.86 dw 528 39.4 ww, respectively. However, PFOA remained largely stable this timeframe site, warranting further rapid regulation remediation measures. Future monitoring efforts are needed allow long-term comparison multiple better distinction confounding variables, such variable emission outputs variability patterns.

Honey bees are renowned for producing a remarkable substance known as bee honey, which stands functional food celebrated its numerous health benefits. This natural wonder possesses spectrum of advantageous properties, including anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, analgesic, antibacterial, and wound-healing qualities. However, in our modern era heightened utilization products, new pressing global concern has emerged—the contamination honey with pesticides, antibiotics, microorganisms, heavy metals. The consumption beekeeping products containing pesticide residues been linked to range issues, genetic malformations, cellular degradation, allergic reactions, even potential carcinogenic effects. Troublingly, documented cases exist botulism newborns resulting from the ingestion contaminated honey. Additionally, use antibiotics practices associated concerning emergence antibiotic resistance. comprehensive review sheds light on substantial consequences human health. It underscores urgent need establishment rigorous monitoring system, validation minimum acceptable pollutant levels, and, at very least, regulation maximum residue limits particular emphasis
