The rare earth elements and yttrium (REY) are critical resources increasingly released into the environment due to their pivotal role for an ever-growing number of high-tech products processes. Fjords, worldwide particularly in Norway, not only high importance biodiversity but they also have great economic value. Knowledge on distribution REY Norwegian coastal riverine waters is, however, surprisingly scarce. We here report data water samples from depth profiles ten stations Trondheimfjord, one Norway's largest fjords, several rivers, two wastewater treatment plants Trondheim. Our results show that different locations Trondheimfjord yield similar concentrations correlate well with dissolved organic carbon. deepest sample at each station shows lowest concentrations. shale-normalised (SN) patterns fjord resemble those North Atlantic seawater, can be distinguished open-ocean by smaller fractionation between light middle (PrSN/TbSN ≥ 0.5).

Environmentally relevant concentrations of the tricyclic antidepressant, amitriptyline, affect feeding and reproduction in a freshwater mollusc

Antidepressant drugs (ADDs) are one of the most extensively used pharmaceuticals globally. They act at particularly low therapeutic concentrations to modulate monoamine neurotransmission, which is evolutionary conserved pathways in both humans and animal species including invertebrates. As ADDs widely detected aquatic environment (ng/L µg/L), their potential exert drug-target mediated effects has raised serious concerns. Amitriptyline (AMI) tricyclic ADD, while monoamines, target ADDs, major bioregulators multiple key physiological processes feeding, reproduction behaviour molluscs. However, AMI on mating unknown molluscs despite ecological importance, diversity reported sensitivity ADDs. To address this knowledge gap, we investigated environmentally relevant (0, 10, 100, 500 1000 ng/L) locomotor behaviours, mating, freshwater gastropod, Biomphalaria glabrata over a period 28 days. further provide insight into (exposure water hemolymph) were determined using novel extraction method.

Importantly, predicted FPM agreed closely measured levels. findings suggest that may be useful indicator feeding disruptions wild population gastropods, confirm comparative pharmaceutical hazard identification.

Amitriptyline ecotoxicity in Danio rerio (Hamilton, 1822) embryos – similar toxicity profile in the presence of nanoplastics

Interaction of nanoplastics (NPls) with other environmental contaminants could affect their uptake by the organisms and toxicity. Thus, present study aims to investigate polystyrene NPls (44 nm) interaction antidepressant amitriptyline (AMI) its toxicity Danio rerio embryos. A similar toxicological profile for + AMI exposure was found most evaluated endpoints, comparing single exposure, showing that presence did not modulate However, behavioral assessment showed a different pattern hypoactivity (NPls – hyperactivity; no effect). effects between were also in protein contents (antagonism) total glutathione content (synergism). This highlights complexity unpredictability pharmaceuticals, important an accurate risk developing effective strategies interventions against plastic pollution.

New photocatalysts with a g-C₃N₄-ZnO heterojunction were prepared following different synthetic routes, fully characterized, and evaluated for the abatement of antipsychotic drug clozapine. Experiments performed clozapine standard based commercial tablet solutions in sun simulator evaluation removal was assessed aqueous media: Milli-Q natural water (Po River) to evaluate role occurring components on efficiency. The photocatalyst via hydrothermal method (CA_1) exhibited highest efficiency, allowing achieve complete within 30 min, water. Its photocatalytic performance decreased river water, where total degradation obtained after1h, is notably inhibited Leponex tablets (80% after 1 h irradiation). Clozapine proceeds through formation nineteen (19) transformation products, all less hazardous that parent compound, as proved by acute chronic toxicity valued ECOSAR. Mechanistic studies evidenced OH⦁ radicals are key reactive species involved pollutant removal, while other such superoxide radical anion (O₂•⁻) especially singlet oxygen (O₂¹) played marginal process.
