Prospects for application of microorganisms in bioremediation of soils contaminated with pesticides
J Environ Sci Health B. 2023 Nov 15:1-6. doi: 10.1080/03601234.2023.2281197. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe contamination of soil with residual amounts of pesticides remains an urgent challenge for human community. The most efficient approach to address this challenge is the direct microbial degradation of a pesticide in agricultural lands. To this end, the selected microorganisms, which quickly and completely utilize pesticides, are employed. In the present work, two herbicides belonging to different classes of chemical compounds, that is, imazamox and chlorsulfuron were used. The screening of promising microorganisms ...

Synthesis of CoWO 4 /g-C 3 N 4 Z-scheme heterojunction for the efficient photodegradation of diazinon with the addition of H 2 O 2 
J Environ Sci Health B. 2023 Nov 15:1-8. doi: 10.1080/03601234.2023.2273773. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPesticides are on the list of substances that are routinely monitored by agencies and organizations in various natural environments and habitats. Diazinon (DZN) is the active ingredient in more than 20 agricultural pesticides, it causes the most damage and has been prohibited in many countries around the world. The final product CoWO4/g-C3N4 Z-scheme heterojunction was successfully synthesized in this work, where CoWO4 nanoparticles were deposited on the surface of g-C3N4. CoWO4/g-C3N4 structure allowed for the effici...

Occurrence of organotin compounds in food: increasing challenge of phenyltin compounds
J Environ Sci Health B. 2023 Nov 14:1-6. doi: 10.1080/03601234.2023.2278385. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTConcentrations and distribution for 16 organotin compounds were studied in all kinds of foods, including seafood, agricultural products, and wine. Meanwhile, the degradation of the TBT or TPhT was also evaluated. Concentrations of total organotins in seafood, agricultural products, and wine were 1047.2, 469.4, and 13.5 μg Sn/kg. Meanwhile, the most frequently detected organotin in three kinds of samples were TPhT, MPhT, and MPhT, respectively. The results demonstrated that phenyltin may probably become an emerging or...

Can herbicides of different mode of action cause injury symptoms in non-herbicide-tolerant young soybean due to simulated drift?
This study examined the impact of simulated drift from ten different herbicides (2,4-D, dicamba, glyphosate, saflufenacil, oxyfluorfen, hexazinone, diuron, diquat, nicosulfuron, and isoxaflutole) on young soybean plants. These herbicides were applied at three simulated drift levels (1/4, 1/16, and 1/32) equivalent to recommended commercial doses, and the resulting symptoms were carefully evaluated. Simulated drift caused distinctive symptoms, including chlorosis, twisting, necrosis, and growth abnormalities, varying depending on each herbicide's mode of action. Dicamba proved more toxic than 2,4-D, and symptom severity inc...
