Abstract
Naproxen (NPX) as an emerging anthropogenic contaminant was detected in many water sources, which can pose a serious threat to the environment and human health. Peroxymonosulfate (PMS) decomposed by Cu(I) has been considered an effective activation method to produce reactive species. However, this decontamination process is restricted by the slow transformation of Cu(II)/Cu(I) by PMS. Herein, new N-(L-cysteine/triazine)-O-(carboxymethyl)-chitosan/cobalt ferrate-rice hull hybrid biocomposite was constructed to anchor the mixed-valent Cu(I)-Cu (II) (CuI, II-CCCF) for removing pharmaceutical pollutants (i.e., naproxen, ciprofloxacin, tetracycline, levofloxacin, and paracetamol). The structural, morphological, and catalytic properties of the CuI,II-CCCF have been fully identified by a series of physicochemical characterizations. Results demonstrated that the multifunctional, hydrophilic character, and negative ζ-potential of the activator, accelerating the redox cycle of Cu(II)/Cu(I) with hydroxyl amine (HA). The negligible metal leaching, well-balanced thermodynamic-kinetic properties, and efficient adsorption-catalysis synergy are the main reasons for the significantly enhanced catalytic performance of CuI,II-CCCF in the removal of NPX (98.6 % at 7.0 min). The main active species in the catalytic degradation of NPX were identified (●OH > SO4●- > 1O2 > > O2●-) and consequently suggested a degradation path. It can be noted that these types of carbohydrate-based nanocomposite offer numerous advantages, encompassing simple preparation, excellent decontamination capabilities, and long-term stability.

ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION (BARKING, ESSEX : 1987) 2022; 315:120384.

Abstract
Although the presence of pharmaceuticals in the environment is an issue widely addressed in research over the past two decades, still little is known about their transformation products. However, there are indications that some of these chemicals may be equally or even more harmful than parent compounds. Diclofenac (DCF) is among the most commonly detected pharmaceuticals in the aquatic environment, but the potential effects of its metabolites on organisms are poorly understood. Therefore, the present study aimed to evaluate and compare the toxicity of DCF and its metabolite, 4-hydroxy diclofenac (4-OH DCF), in mussels using a multi-biomarker approach. Mytilus trossulus mussels were exposed to DCF and 4-OH DCF at 68.22 and 20.85 μg/L (measured concentrations at day 0), respectively, for 7 days. In our work, we showed that both tested compounds have no effect on most of the enzymatic biomarkers tested. However, it has been shown that their action can affect the protein content in gills and also be reflected through histological markers. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPLICATION: Studies in recent years clearly prove that pharmaceuticals can negatively affect aquatic organisms. In addition to parent compounds, metabolites of pharmaceuticals can also be a significant environmental problem. In the present work, the effects of diclofenac and its main metabolite, 4-hydroxy diclofenac, on marine mussels were evaluated. Both compounds showed negative effects on mussels, which was primarily observed through histological changes. The present study therefore confirms that not only diclofenac, but also its main metabolite can have negative effects on aquatic organisms.

Abstract
Electron transfer plays a crucial role in ROS generation in living systems. Molecular oxygen acts as the terminal electron acceptor in the respiratory chains of aerobic organisms. Two main mechanisms of antioxidant defense by exogenous antioxidants are usually considered. The first is the inhibition of ROS generation, and the second is the trapping of free radicals. In the present study, we have elucidated both these mechanisms of antioxidant activity of glycyrrhizin (GL), the main active component of licorice root, using the chemically induced dynamic nuclear polarization (CIDNP) technique. First, it was shown that GL is capable of capturing a solvated electron, thereby preventing its capture by molecular oxygen. Second, we studied the effect of glycyrrhizin on the behavior of free radicals generated by UV irradiation of xenobiotic, NSAID—naproxen in solution. The structure of the glycyrrhizin paramagnetic intermediates formed after the capture of a solvated electron was established from a photo-CIDNP study of the model system—the dianion of 5-sulfosalicylic acid and DFT calculations.

Abstract
Nowadays, a huge scientific attention is being paid to the chemicals of emerging concern, which may pose a significant risk to the human and whole ecosystems. Among them, residues of pharmaceuticals are a widely investigated group of chemicals. In recent years it has been repeatedly demonstrated that pharmaceuticals are present in the environment and that some of them can be toxic to organisms as well as accumulate in their tissues. However, even though the knowledge of the presence, fate and possible threats posed by the parent forms of pharmaceuticals is quite extensive, their transformation products (TPs) have been disregarded for long time. Since last few years, this aspect has gained more scientific attention and recently published papers proved their common presence in the environment. Also the interest in terms of their toxicity, bioconcentration and stability in the environment has increased. Therefore, the aim of our paper was to revise and assess the current state of knowledge on the fate and effects resulting from the presence of the pharmaceuticals' transformation drugs in the environment. This review discusses the metabolites of compounds belonging to six major pharmaceutical groups: SSRIs, anticancer drugs, antibiotics, antihistamines, NSAIDs and opioids, additionally discussing other individual compounds for which literature data exist. The data presented in this paper prove that some TPs may be as harmful as their native forms, however for many groups of drugs this data is still insufficient to assess the risk posed by their presence in the environment.
