The presence of pharmaceuticals in the aquatic environment presents a challenge to modern science. most significant impact this can induce is emergence antibiotic resistance, which lead global health emergency. It important note that not limited resistance. Pharmaceuticals also affect behaviour and reproductive systems organisms, with cascading effects on entire ecosystems. Numerous studies have reported due uncontrolled disposal polluted domestic, agricultural, industrial wastewater water bodies. This work discusses potential one hand are highly for mankind, yet their non-judicious usage equally intriguing problematic conditions systems. Pathways through pharmaceutics make way into bodies discussed. Furthermore, risk imposed by life elaborated. possible pragmatic remediation methods pharmaceutical products be treated Emphasis placed phytoremediation advanced oxidative process, factors affecting efficacy these

Bioaccumulation/bioconcentration of pharmaceutical active compounds in aquatic organisms: Assessment and factors database

The Science of The Total Environment, Год журнала: 2022, Номер 861, С. 160638 - 160638

There is increasing evidence that the presence of certain pharmaceuticals in environment leads to biota exposure and constitute a potential risk for ecosystems. Bioaccumulation an essential focus assessment evaluate at what degree emerging contaminants are hazard both individuals inhabit it. The main goals present review 1) summarize describe research factors should be taken into account evaluation bioaccumulation aquatic organisms; 2) provide database critical bioaccumulation/bioconcentration (BAF or BCF) these compounds organisms different trophic levels. Most studies fall one two categories: laboratory-scale absorption purification tests field and, lesser extent, large-scale, semi-natural system tests. Although last 5 years there has been considerable progress this field, especially species fish molluscs, still limited on other like crustaceans algae. This revision includes >230 bioconcentration (BCF) >530 (BAF), determined 113 pharmaceuticals. most commonly studied antidepressant group, followed by diclofenac carbamazepine. currently no reported accumulation data compounds, such as anti-cancer drugs. BCFs highly influenced experimental (notably level, time temperature). Field BAFs superior laboratory BCFs, highlighting importance reliable assessments true environmental conditions. BAF appears organ, compound-specific. impact food web transfer also considered. Among species, lower levels benthic exhibit relatively higher uptake compounds.

Occurrence, Bioaccumulation, Metabolism and Ecotoxicity of Fluoroquinolones in the Aquatic Environment: A Review

Toxics, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 11(12), С. 966 - 966

Опубликована: Ноя. 29, 2023

In recent years, there has been growing concern about antibiotic contamination in water bodies, particularly the widespread presence of fluoroquinolones (FQs), which pose a serious threat to ecosystems due their extensive use and phenomenon "pseudo-persistence". This article provides comprehensive review literature on FQs summarizing analyzing levels global surface over past three as well bioaccumulation metabolism patterns aquatic organisms, ecological toxicity, influencing factors. The results show that is across surveyed 32 countries, with ciprofloxacin norfloxacin being most heavy contaminants. Furthermore, are generally higher developing developed countries. It observed compound types, species, environmental factors influence bioaccumulation, metabolism, toxicity organisms. tend accumulate more organisms lipid content, experiments have shown exhibit highest bacteria weakest mollusk. summarizes analyzes current research status shortcomings FQs, providing guidance theoretical support for future directions.
