Ecotoxicology has long relied on assessing the hazard potential of chemicals through traditional in vivo testing methods to understand possible risk exposure could pose ecological taxa. In past decade, development non-animal new approach (NAMs) for chemical and quickly grown. These are often cheaper faster than toxicity testing, thus amenable high-throughput (HTT), resulting large datasets. The ToxCast/Tox21 HTT programs have produced vitro data thousands covering a space biological activity. relevance these mammalian been much explored. Interest also grown using evaluate environmental exposures taxa importance such as fish, aquatic invertebrates, etc.; particularly purpose estimating from real-world complex mixtures. Understanding relationship relative sensitivity NAMs versus standardized ecotoxicological whole organism models is key component performing reliable read-across data. this work, we explore between ecotoxicity several publicly available databases We performed case studies which compare how different datasets, whether or ToxCast-based, affects conclusions based mixtures derived existing large-scale monitoring Generally, predictive value endpoints (EPs) was poor (r≤0.3). Risk conclusions, including identification drivers prioritized sites, were when vs.

Pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) are incredibly diverse in terms of chemical structures, physicochemical properties, modes action, making their environmental impacts challenging to assess. New prioritization methodologies have emerged that compare contaminant monitoring concentrations multiple toxicity data sources, including whole organism high-throughput data, develop a list "high priority" chemicals requiring further study. We applied such an approach assess PPCPs Hunting Creek, urban tributary the Potomac River near Washington, DC, which has experienced extensive human population growth. estimated potential risks 99 from surface water sediment collected upstream downstream major wastewater treatment plant (WWTP), nearby combined sewer overflows (CSO), adjacent River. The greatest aquatic ecosystem occurred WWTP CSO outfalls, but risk levels rapidly dropped below thresholds concern - established by previous studies mainstem. These results suggest tributaries, rather than larger rivers, important monitor because lower or intermittent flow may not adequately dilute contaminants concern. Common psychotropics, as fluoxetine venlafaxine, presented highest risks, with quotients often > 10 1000 sediment, indicating need for field studies.

England's 10 national parks are renowned for their landscapes, wildlife, and recreational value. However, surface waters in the may be vulnerable to pollution from human-use chemicals, such as active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), because of factors like ineffective wastewater treatment, seasonal tourism, a high proportion elderly residents, presence low-flow water bodies that limit dilution.

Abstract Pesticides enter non-target surface waters as a result of agricultural activities and may reach water bodies in protected areas. We measured southwestern Germany pesticide concentrations after heavy rainfalls streams drinking protection area near Hausen (Freiburg) the catchment Queich (Landau), which originates from biosphere reserve Palatinate Forest. On average, 32 (n = 21) 21 10) pesticides were detected per sample event 56) 17), respectively. The majority > 50% all samples fungicides, with fluopyram being throughout samples. Aquatic invertebrates exhibited highest risks 16.1% exceeding mixture toxicity thresholds, whereas lower for aquatic plants (12.9%) fish (6.5%). Mixture threshold exceedances indicate adverse ecological effects to occur at half sites (50%). This study illustrates presence mixtures highlights organisms areas Germany.
