Trends in neonicotinoid pesticide residues in food and water in the United States, 1999–2015

Environmental Health, Год журнала: 2019, Номер 18(1)

Neonicotinoids are a class of systemic insecticides widely used on food crops globally. These pesticides may be found in “off-target” items and persist the environment. Despite potential for extensive human exposure, there limited studies regarding prevalence neonicotinoid residues foods sold consumed United States. Residue data seven collected between 1999 2015 by US Department Agriculture’s Pesticide Data Program (PDP) were collated summarized year across various commodities, including fruit, vegetable, meat, dairy, grain, honey, baby food, as well water to qualitatively describe examine trends contamination frequency residue concentrations. The highest detection frequencies (DFs) neonicotinoids all commodities generally below 20%. Average DFs over entire study period, 1999–2015, domestic imported similar at 4.5%. For samples (both imported) imidacloprid was with overall 12.0%. However, higher observed specific commodity-neonicotinoid combinations such as: cherries (45.9%), apples (29.5%), pears (24.1%) strawberries (21.3%) acetamiprid; cauliflower (57.5%), celery (20.9%), (26.3%), cilantro (30.6%), grapes (28.9%), collard greens (24.9%), kale (31.4%), lettuce (45.6%), potatoes (31.2%) spinach (38.7%) imidacloprid. also detected organic (DF < 6%). Individual least 5% testing positive two or more included apples, celery, cherries. Generally, did not exceed Environmental Protection Agency tolerance levels. Increases both finished untreated from 2004 2011. Analysis PDP indicates that low levels present commonly-consumed fruits vegetables US. Trends suggest an increase use acetamiprid, clothianidin thiamethoxam replacements Given these findings, surveillance supply is warranted, biomonitoring assessment cumulative daily intake high risk groups, pregnant women infants.

Portable Self-Powered/Colorimetric Dual-Mode Sensing Platform Based on Multifunctional Bioconjugates for Precise On-Site Detection of Acetamiprid

Analytical Chemistry, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 97(1), С. 928 - 935

Опубликована: Янв. 3, 2025

Neonicotinoid insecticides have been widely applied in modern agriculture to improve crop productivity, but their residues adverse impacts on the environment and human health. Hence, address these issues, a portable self-powered/colorimetric dual-mode sensing platform was developed for simple, rapid, precise, sensitive on-site detection of acetamiprid (ATM) vegetables. In this case, multifunctional bioconjugate with specific recognition capability, excellent enzyme-like activity, loading capacity is key design. Using an Eppendorf (EP) tube as miniaturized laboratory, bioconjugates colorimetric test strip were integrated into EP tube, combined nanozyme-based self-powered (with area 1.5 × cm2), accurate ATM achieved, limits low 2.9 fg·mL–1 (self-powered method) 31.5 (colorimetry), respectively. Notably, we simulated actual insecticidal situation based field application concentration quantified pesticide The relative errors our method standard high-performance liquid chromatography 0.15% (the 1.8% high sensitivity accuracy opened up new avenue development residue analysis next generation agricultural products.

Dietary risk of neonicotinoid insecticides through fruit and vegetable consumption in school-age children

Environment International, Год журнала: 2019, Номер 126, С. 672 - 681

Although the systemic property of neonicotinoid (neonics) has become most widely used insecticide worldwide since late 1990s, current literature offers limited information about human dietary intake and potential risks neonics. In this study, we aimed to assess cumulative risk total neonics intakes through fruit vegetable consumption in 58 children ages 8-12 participated Hangzhou China (HZC) study over 5 consecutive weekends. Individual neonic residues each food item were aggregated using relative potency factor approach into a single metric (IMIRPF), representing imidacloprid-equivalent We then estimated average daily (ADI) evaluated All 123 samples detected with at least one neonic. Commonly consumed foods, such as carrots, green vegetables, baby cabbage, apple found more than 6 The ADIs mean IMIRPF for apples two items, 237.1*10-6 106.8*10-6 mg/kg/day, respectively. below chronic reference dose (cRfD) imidacloprid, have stipulated possible future downward revision cRfD. health via exposure should raise public concern considering increase use ubiquitous presence fruits vegetables.

Dietary exposure to neonicotinoid insecticides and health risks in the Chinese general population through two consecutive total diet studies

Опубликована: Дек. 23, 2019

Neonicotinoid insecticides are ubiquitous in food and the environment due to their wide use. Growing evidence suggests adverse effects of neonicotinoids many species, including mammals. Some studies have reported urinary concentrations human biological monitoring, but potential risks on health based long-term chronic exposure any general population been rarely tackled. In this study, dietary Chinese adult was studied basis composite samples collected from 5th (2009–2012) 6th (2015–2018) total diet (TDS). Residue levels ten were determined 528 24 provinces China. Most (53.3% 70.5% TDS, respectively) that we analyzed contained multi-residue neonicotinoids. Imidacloprid acetamiprid most frequently detected neonicotinoids, thiamethoxam clothianidin increasingly used found TDS. The estimated daily intake (EDI) for calculated evaluate risk a relative potency factor assessment method. mean EDIs TDS respectively reached 598.95 710.38 ng/kg bw per day. Although neonics relatively higher than no statistical difference observed (p > 0.05). Vegetables main source exposure, via cereals beverages water must also be addressed average much lower current reference dose (57 μg/kg day), should not overlooked ubiquity environment.

Residues and distribution of neonicotinoid insecticides (NEOs) in soil-water-sediment systems the urban rural areas Guangzhou, South China were investigated. A total 104 soil samples from 7 different functional zones 29 water/sediment creeks collected. The results showed that at least one insecticide was detected all samples. summed levels five target neonicotinoids (∑5neonics) range 0.003–229 ng/g dw for samples, 7.94–636 ng/L water 0.017–31.3 sediment with a geometric mean 0.59 dw, 153 1.11 respectively. Soils agricultural contained highest residual NEOs, followed by commercial, traffic, residential, industrial, educational parks. Among seven studied, imidacloprid most dominant NEO commercial zones, whereas acetamiprid other land-use types.
