Wastewater reuse and pharmaceutical pollution in agriculture: Uptake, transport, accumulation and metabolism of pharmaceutical pollutants within plants

Chemosphere, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 364, С. 143055 - 143055

Опубликована: Авг. 9, 2024

The presence of pharmaceutical pollutants in water sources has become a growing concern due to its potential impacts on human health and other organisms. physicochemical properties pharmaceuticals based their intended therapeutical application, which include antibiotics, hormones, analgesics, antidepressants, is quite diverse. Their wastewater, sewerage water, surface ground even drinking reported by many researchers throughout the world. Human exposure these through or consumption aquatic terrestrial organisms raised concerns about adverse effects, such as endocrine disruption, antibiotic resistance, developmental abnormalities. Once environment, they can persist, undergo transformation, degrade, leading complex mixture contaminants. Application treated compost, manures biosolids agricultural fields introduce environment. As are diverse nature, significant differences observed during uptake accumulation plants. While there have been extensive studies ecosystems, effect land more disparate. now, few reports available plant transportation within between organs. This review summarizes occurrence bodies at range concentrations uptake, accumulation, transport tissues. Research gaps pollutants' specific growth future research scopes highlighted. factors affecting including hydrophobicity, ionization, (pKa, logK

Addressing Heavy Metal Pollution in Nigeria: Evaluating Policies, Assessing Impacts, and Enhancing Remediation Strategies

Journal of applied science and environmental management, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 28(4), С. 1007 - 1051

Опубликована: Апрель 29, 2024

Heavy metal pollution is a significant environmental concern in Nigeria, posing risks to ecological integrity and public health. This study aims evaluate the existing policies regulations addressing heavy pollution, assess their effectiveness, propose recommendations for improvement. The analysis reveals that while Nigeria has established robust legislative framework, challenges implementation, enforcement, funding persist. impact of reducing influenced by resource constraints, limited capacity, need stronger collaboration between regulatory bodies industries. Community involvement education play crucial role managing emphasizing importance awareness, sustainable practices, local engagement. Remediation strategies, such as bioremediation phytoremediation, offer potential solutions. However, gaps knowledge research exist, calling long-term monitoring, assessments, comprehensive health risk assessments. To enhance effectiveness current policies, periodic reviews, increased funding, community-based monitoring programs are recommended. By these implementing proposed recommendations, can make strides towards mitigating achieving sustainability.

Novel insights into the mechanism of laccase-driven rhizosphere humification for alleviating wheat 17β-estradiol contamination

Environment International, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 185, С. 108576 - 108576

Global-scale crop contamination with environmental estrogens has posed a huge risk to agri-food safety and human health. Laccase is regarded as an unexceptionable biocatalyst for regulating pollution expediting humification, but the knowledge of estrogen bioremediation C storage strengthened by laccase-driven rhizosphere humification (LDRH) remains largely unknown. Herein, greenhouse microcosm was performed explore migration fate 17β-estradiol (E2) in water-wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) matrices LDRH. Compared non-added laccase, pseudo-first-order decay rate constants E2 solution after 10 50 μM exposures LDRH increased from 0.03 0.02 h−1 0.36 0.09 h−1, respectively. Furthermore, conferred higher yield, polymerizability, O-containing groups, functional-C signals humified precipitates, because it accelerated formation highly complex precipitates radical-controlled continuous polymerization. In particular, not only did mitigate phytotoxicity E2, also diminished metabolic load wheat tissues. This attributed rapid attenuation during LDRH, which limited uptake accumulation each subcellular fraction roots shoots. Although several typical intermediate products such estrone, estriol, oligomers were detected roots, small-molecule species found shoots, evidencing that polymeric unable be translocated acropetally due vast hydrophobicity biounavailability. For first time, our study highlights novel, eco-friendly, sustainable candidate increasing low-C treatment organics microenvironments alleviating potential risks estrogenic contaminants agroenvironments.
