The extensive use of fungicides causes their continuous release into the environment through spraying, soil seepage, leaching, and runoff. It has been observed that residues can be found in foods a variety environmental compartments, such as wastewater, lakes, rivers, sediments, drinking water sources (groundwater surface water), treated water, water. A sensitive GC-MS/MS, using dynamic multiple reaction monitoring, an analytical method was developed to determine 10 (azoxystrobin, boscalid, captan, cyproconazole, cyprodinil, hexaconazole, metalaxyl, myclobutanil, paclobutrazol, prochloraz) solid-phase extraction for sample preparations validations performed according SANTE 2019 guidelines. All demonstrated mild or medium matrix effects (ME) ranging from 40.1% 11.2%. Their recoveries ranged between 60% 110%. limits detection were equal higher than 0.01 μg/L. employed on 18 samples collected public taps Northern Evros, Greece, distributed six sampling sites.

The study investigated the dissipation ability of a vegetated free water surface (FWS) constructed wetland (CW) in treating pesticides-contaminated agricultural runoff/drainage rural area belonging to Bologna province (Italy). experiment simulated 0.1% pesticide event from 12.5-ha farm by dissolving acetamiprid, metalaxyl, S-metolachlor, and terbuthylazine 1000 L pumping it into CW. Water sediment samples CW were collected for 4 months at different time intervals determine concentrations multiresidue extraction chromatography-mass spectrometry analyses. In parallel, no active compounds detected sediments during experimental period. Pesticides compartment was modeled according best data practices fitting Single First Order (SFO), Multi-Compartment (FOMC) Double Parallel (DFOP) kinetic models. SFO (except metalaxyl), FOMC DFOP models adequately predicted four molecules, with model that better fitted observed data. distribution each between biomass highly correlated environmental indexes as Kow bioconcentration factor. Computed DT50 2.169, 8.019, 1.551 2.047 days terbuthylazine, respectively. Although exact degradation mechanisms require further study, FWS found be effective within an acceptable time. Therefore, this technology proved valuable tool mitigating pesticides runoff occurring after intense rain events.

Grape cultivation is crucial due to its significant dietary benefits and the production of various byproducts. Fungicides, like boscalid, are frequently applied protect grape crops from several disease, ensuring both yield quality. However, excessive or inappropriate application boscalid may pose health risks humans. Therefore, objectives this field study were (a) assess pre-harvest interval (PHI) dissipation in two table-grape varieties (Soultanina Crimson) under conditions (b) evaluate potential associated with consumption for adults children. The residue grapes was determined using a modified QuEChERS method coupled high-performance liquid chromatography diode array detector (HPLC–DAD). followed first- second-order kinetics, half-lives ranging 3.32 6.42 days PHIs 8.11 10.90 days. risk assessment indicated that early mid-post period could age groups, children facing three times adults.

Thirty-nine different fungicide molecules found; its detection frequency was dominated by rabenzazole (61%, 92%) ethoxyquin (54%, 77%); among the five fungicides with similar catching rates, ferimzone most polluting 54%); oxadixyl (61%), kresoxim-methyl (61%) fenamidone (46%) primarily designated surface water contaminants; azoles, occurrence ranged from residual (10%) moderate rate two compounds (31%—propiconazole tebuconazole). Surprisingly, 51% of authorised. The frequently that either authorised (ethoxyquin impurity, furmecyclox, oxadixyl), without EU (rabenzazole, ferimzone), or at national level (fenamidone), should be included monitoring programmes followed emerging (micro)contaminants.
