Elicitation of E-waste (acrylonitrile-butadiene styrene) enriched soil bioremediation and detoxification using Priestia aryabhattai MGP1
Environ Res. 2023 Sep 14:117126. doi: 10.1016/j.envres.2023.117126. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTGiven the rise in both usage and disposal of dangerous electronics, there is a catastrophic rise in assemblage of electronic waste (e-waste). E-waste including various plastic resins are among the most frequently discarded materials in electronic gadgets. In current digital era, managing e-waste has become universal concern. From the viewpoint of persisting lacuna of e-waste managing methods, the current study is designed to fabricate an eco-friendly e-waste treatment with native soil bacteria employing an enrichment culture m...

Associations of metal mixtures with thyroid function and potential interactions with iodine status: results from a cross-sectional study in MEWHC
Environ Sci Pollut Res Int. 2023 Sep 16. doi: 10.1007/s11356-023-29682-4. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTFew studies are available on associations between metal mixture exposures and disrupted thyroid hormone homeostasis; particularly, the role of iodine status was ignored. Here, we aimed to explore the cross-sectional relationship of blood cell metals with thyroid homeostasis and explore the potential modifying effect of iodine status. Among 328 workers from the manganese-exposed workers healthy cohort (MEWHC), we detected thyroid function parameters: thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), total triiodothyronine (TT3), free tr...

A comprehensive health risk assessment associated with bioaccumulation of heavy metals and nutrients in selected macrophytes of Loktak Lake, Manipur, India
Environ Sci Pollut Res Int. 2023 Sep 15. doi: 10.1007/s11356-023-29606-2. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe Loktak Lake, a Ramsar site in Northeast India, is known for its rich biodiversity that includes a variety of macrophyte species, most of which have not been studied for their phytoremediation capacities and potential toxicity via consumption of the edible species. Therefore, a comprehensive assessment was conducted to evaluate the accumulation of selected heavy metals and nutrients in 10 dominant macrophyte species growing in Loktak Lake and to assess the potential health risks associated with consumption of the edib...

Facile synthesis of novel magnesium oxide nanoparticles for pesticide sorption from water
Environ Sci Pollut Res Int. 2023 Aug 31. doi: 10.1007/s11356-023-29562-x. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe quantum of pesticides in surface as well as drinking water has become a serious health hazard. In this experiment, magnesium oxide nanoparticles (MgO NPs) were synthesized using leaves of purple-colored rice variety (Crossa) and utilized for simultaneous removal of three pesticides, namely, thiamethoxam, chlorpyriphos, and fenpropathrin from water. The biogenic MgO NPs were characterized using SEM-EDX, FTIR, XRD, DLS, etc. The optimum synthesis parameters (1 M NaOH, 80 °C, and 2 h) resulted in maximum yield of MgO N...

Characterization of airborne particulate matter and its toxic and proarrhythmic effects: A case study in Aburr á Valley, Colombia
This study characterized the PM collected from the north, south, and central zones to evaluate its chemical composition and morphology. Different elements such as silicon, carbon, aluminum, potassium, calcium, sodium, iron, magnesium, and copper and the presence of unburned fuel, motor oil, and silicon fibers were identified. In vitro and in silico studies were conducted to evaluate the toxicity of the PM, and it was found that the PM collected from the central zone had the greatest impact on cell viability and caused DNA damage. The in silico study demonstrated that PM has concentration-dependent proarrhythmic effects, re...

Prediction of water quality under the impacts of fine dust and sand storm events using an experimental model and multivariate regression analysis
Environ Pollut. 2023 Aug 25:122462. doi: 10.1016/j.envpol.2023.122462. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTMany regions of the world, especially arid and semiarid areas, occasionally experience fine dust and sandstorms, known environmental problems that make normal life difficult. Since the intrusion of large amounts of dust into treatment plants may significantly change the water quality indices, the main goal of this study was to estimate these indices during the events, which can help decision-makers to improve water quality. To achieve relationships using nonlinear multivariate regression analysis, a long-term (three years: ...

Spatio-temporal evolution of groundwater quality and its health risk assessment in Punjab (India) during 2000-2020
In this study, spatial tools are utilized to understand the evolution of groundwater in Punjab (> 315 sites) for the last two decades (2000-2020) for drinking purposes using the water quality index (WQI). The data for pH, electric conductivity (EC), bicarbonate (HCO3¯), chloride (Cl¯), sulfate (SO42¯), nitrate (NO3¯), fluoride (F¯), calcium (Ca2+), magnesium (Mg2+), sodium (Na+), and potassium (K+) collected from the Central Groundwater Board (CGWB) were analyzed. The results show that the average cation abundance is in declining order of Na > Mg > Ca > K, and anion abundance is in order of HCO3¯ > SO4...
