Multigenerational and transgenerational effects of azoxystrobin on Folsomia candida
Environ Pollut. 2023 Aug 16:122398. doi: 10.1016/j.envpol.2023.122398. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTSoil organisms are exposed to various pollutants during several generations. However standard toxicity tests are often based on exposure in only one generation. Research of multigenerational (MG) and transgenerational (TG) effects are still quite scarce, however evidence accumulates that effects observed in one generation can be significantly different in some of the following generations, with different effects observed. Some studies suggest adaptation to pollutants, while others report severe effects in following generati...

Validation of biomarkers for neonicotinoid exposure in Folsomia candida under mutual exposure to diethyl maleate
Environ Sci Pollut Res Int. 2023 Aug 5. doi: 10.1007/s11356-023-28940-9. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTNeonicotinoid insecticides are harmful to non-target soil invertebrates, which are crucial for sustainable agriculture. Gene expression biomarkers could provide economic and high-throughput metrics of neonicotinoid exposure and toxicity to non-target invertebrates. Thereby, biomarkers can help guide remediation efforts or policy enforcement. Gene expression of Glutathione S-Transferase 3 (GST3) has previously been proposed as a biomarker for the neonicotinoid imidacloprid in the soil ecotoxicological model species Folsomi...

Additive and dose-dependent mixture effects of Flumite 200 (flufenzin, acaricide) and Quadris (azoxystrobin, fungicide) on the reproduction and survival of Folsomia candida (Collembola)
Ecotoxicol Environ Saf. 2023 Jul 7;263:115219. doi: 10.1016/j.ecoenv.2023.115219. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTChemical plant protection is still a dominant agricultural practice in the world, and usually fields are treated with several pesticides many times per year. This means that not only the single substances affect the environment and the non-target organisms, but their mixtures. Our model organism was Folsomia candida (Collembola). We aimed to gain information on the toxicity of Quadris (azoxystrobin) and Flumite 200 (flufenzine aka. diflovidazine) on survival and reproduction and whether the animals can mitigate t...

Chemical and ecotoxicological indicators for evaluating the treatment of coal mining wastes
Environ Sci Pollut Res Int. 2023 Jul 1. doi: 10.1007/s11356-023-28477-x. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThis paper consists of the evaluation in regards to the ecotoxicological effectiveness of a treatment applied to a coal mining waste. The treatment consisted of separating the particles based on gravimetric concentration in spirals, generating three fractions: heavy, intermediate, and light, with high, moderate, and low pyrite content, respectively. The intermediate fraction represents the larger disposal volume of the waste on soils. To evaluate the effectiveness of the treatment, metal determination and bioassays Eiseni...

Candida tropicalis as a novel dietary additive to reduce methane emissions and nitrogen excretion in sheep
Environ Sci Pollut Res Int. 2023 Jun 17. doi: 10.1007/s11356-023-28245-x. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe goal of this study was to investigate Candida tropicalis as a kind of environmentally friendly dietary additive to manipulate ruminal fermentation patterns, reduce methane emissions and nitrogen excretion, and to screen the appropriate dose for sheep. Twenty-four Dorper × thin-tailed Han crossbred ewes (51.12 kg ± 2.23 kg BW) were selected and randomly divided into four groups which were fed Candida tropicalis at dose of 0 (control), 4 × 108 (low dose), 4 × 109 (medium dose), and 4 × 1010 (high dose) colony-form...

Ecofriendly fabrication of cobalt nanoparticles using Azadirachta indica (neem) for effective inhibition of Candida-like fungal infection in medicated nano-coated textile
This study involves the formulation of cobalt nanoparticles by means of ethanolic Azadirachta indica (neem) extract (CoNP@N). Later, the formulated buildup was incorporated into cotton fabric in order to mitigate antifungal infection. Optimization of the formulation was carried out by considering the effect of plant concentration, temperature, and revolutions per minute (rpm) used, through design of the experiment (DOE), response surface methodology (RSM), and ANOVA of the synthetic procedure. Hence, graph was potted with the aid of effecting parameters and the related factors (size of particle and zeta potential). Further...

Prediction of soil ecotoxicity against < em > Folsomia candida < /em > using acute and chronic endpoints
In this study, three available soil ecotoxicity data (pLC50, pLOEL and pNOEL) against the soil invertebrate Folsomia candida were collected from the ECOTOX database (cfpub.epa.gov/ecotox) and subjected to quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) analysis using 2D descriptors. The collected data for each endpoint were initially curated and used to develop a partial least squares (PLS) regression model based on the features selected through a genetic algorithm followed by the best subset selection. Both internal and external validation metrics of the models' predictions are well-balanced and within the acceptable ...

Noteworthy biocompatibility of effective microorganisms (EM) like microbial beneficial culture formulation with metal and metal oxide nanoparticles
This study concluded that biocompatible, eco-friendly formulations of microbial inoculants could be used for the desirable agro active properties that show extreme tolerance or biocompatibility to the nanoparticles. This present study also suggests the utilisation of the above said beneficial microbial formulation and metal-based nanoparticles with desirable agro active properties in a synergistic manner due to their high tolerance or compatibility towards the metal or metal oxide nanoparticles.PMID:37209987 | DOI:10.1016/j.envres.2023.116150
