Abstract
The degradation behavior of mandestrobin (1) was investigated in aerobic aquatic water-sediment systems exposed to continuous artificial sunlight (λ>290 nm). [14C]mandestrobin uniformly labeled at the phenoxy or benzyl ring was individually applied to the overlying water of the system at a rate equivalent to 262.5 g a.i./ha. The transformation of 1 was mainly proceeded via photoinduced bond cleavage at the benzyl phenyl ether and the subsequent rearrangement reaction. Interestingly, some of the photodegradates and microbial metabolites of 1 observed in the aquatic photodegradation and water-sediment (dark) studies, respectively, were never detected. Furthermore, the observed photoproducts were less formed and were steadily degraded or metabolized to carbon dioxide or strongly adsorbed to bottom sediment. The fate of 1 and its degradates in illuminated water-sediment systems was considered to reflect realistic conditions more precisely, as it accounts for various effects attributed to sunlight.

Short-term insecticide exposure amid co-occurring stressors reduces diversity and densities in north-east Indian experimental aquatic invertebrate communities. AQUATIC TOXICOLOGY (AMSTERDAM, NETHERLANDS) 2023; 264:106691. [PMID: 37866165 DOI: 10.1016/j.aquatox.2023.106691] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/20/2023] [Revised: 08/25/2023] [Accepted: 09/07/2023] [Indexed: 10/24/2023]
Abstract
Globally, river pesticide concentrations are associated with regional and local stream invertebrate diversity declines. Pesticides often co-occur with elevated nutrients (e.g. nitrogen and phosphorus) and sediments related to agriculture, making their individual effects difficult to disentangle. These effects are also less well studied in Asia, than in other geographic regions. Within Asia, India is one of the largest producers and users of pesticides and has approximately 60% of total land mass used for agriculture. Here we examine the responses of Indian river invertebrate communities subjected to malathion, nutrients, and sediment additions in a semi-orthogonal design, in three sequential (through time) short-term (120 h) mesocosm experiments. Additionally, a series of single-species toxicity tests were run that used 24 h exposure and 72 h recovery to examine the sensitivity of 13 local invertebrate taxa to malathion, and 9 taxa to cypermethrin, comparing these results to those from other biogeographic regions. Mesocosm results indicate that malathion exposure had a major effect compared to other stressors on communities, with a lesser effect of nutrients and/or sediments. In mesocosms, taxa richness, total abundance and the abundance of sensitive species all declined associated with malathion concentrations. Comparisons of organism sensitivities from other geographic locations and those in the current paper suggest taxa in India are relatively tolerant to malathion and cypermethrin. Our results further reinforce that the high observed aquatic pesticide concentrations known to occur in Asian freshwater ecosystems are likely to be negatively affecting biodiversity, homogenising biota towards those most stress tolerant.

Abstract
The behavior of pesticide particles or droplets might significantly influence their environmental risks. However, studies on the risk of different pesticide formulations in aqueous environments have rarely been reported. In this study, we prepared three types of pyraclostrobin formulations to evaluate their behavior in the aqueous environment and toxicological risks to zebrafish. The results showed that pyraclostrobin emulsifiable concentrate (EC) sank faster in water with increasing hydrophilicity and density of the solvent. The particles also sank faster with increasing particle size and particle density for suspension concentrate (SC) and microcapsules (MCs). Diverse behavior in water results in different temporal and spatial distributions of the active ingredient. EC-EGDA, SC-5 μm, CS-Large and EC-MO sink or float over time, therefore reducing the effective dose suspended in water. Lower toxicological risks of the pesticides were also observed by reducing the enrichment of pyraclostrobin in zebrafish. In addition to the direct toxicity of the active ingredient, the type of pesticide formulations and their specific compositions might also influence the integrated toxicity. The environmental behavior of pesticide formulations should also be considered for their systematic assessment of environmental risks to ensure the scientific application of pesticides in different scenarios.

Abstract
The evaluation of a chemical substance's persistence is key to understanding its environmental fate, exposure concentration, and, ultimately, environmental risk. Traditional biodegradation test methods were developed many years ago for soluble, nonvolatile, single-constituent test substances, which do not represent the wide range of manufactured chemical substances. In addition, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) screening and simulation test methods do not fully reflect the environmental conditions into which substances are released and, therefore, estimates of chemical degradation half-lives can be very uncertain and may misrepresent real environmental processes. In this paper, we address the challenges and limitations facing current test methods and the scientific advances that are helping to both understand and provide solutions to them. Some of these advancements include the following: (1) robust methods that provide a deeper understanding of microbial composition, diversity, and abundance to ensure consistency and/or interpret variability between tests; (2) benchmarking tools and reference substances that aid in persistence evaluations through comparison against substances with well-quantified degradation profiles; (3) analytical methods that allow quantification for parent and metabolites at environmentally relevant concentrations, and inform on test substance bioavailability, biochemical pathways, rates of primary versus overall degradation, and rates of metabolite formation and decay; (4) modeling tools that predict the likelihood of microbial biotransformation, as well as biochemical pathways; and (5) modeling approaches that allow for derivation of more generally applicable biotransformation rate constants, by accounting for physical and/or chemical processes and test system design when evaluating test data. We also identify that, while such advancements could improve the certainty and accuracy of persistence assessments, the mechanisms and processes by which they are translated into regulatory practice and development of new OECD test guidelines need improving and accelerating. Where uncertainty remains, holistic weight of evidence approaches may be required to accurately assess the persistence of chemicals. Integr Environ Assess Manag 2022;18:1454-1487. © 2022 The Authors.

Abstract
To clarify the influence of organic pesticides on phytoremediation of potentially toxic metal elements, hydroponically-grown Acorus tatarinowii was used to repair copper pollution at six concentration levels with and without atrazine. Removal outcomes and processes exhibited asymmetry in an aquatic system. In plants, the addition of atrazine brought as much as 20.5% copper than control. Total amounts, percentage of protein or pectin combined copper and leaf: root ratio of copper were enhanced correspondingly. In solutions, cupric ions (Cu2+) were eliminated as much as 95.6% in plant remediation system. Though atrazine resulted in a quarter more absorption equilibrium concentration, the absorption reaction rate half declined. Copper removal in the system was contributed by both bound copper in solution and plant accumulation, and atrazine magnified contribution weight of the later one. Concurrent copper decreased absolute and relative amounts of atrazine in A. tatarinowii, indicating the influence of copper was mainly to reduce atrazine uptake by A. tatarinowii rather than to change the transformation of atrazine in plants. Copper exhibited antagonistic effects with atrazine in term of plant biomass, photosynthesis and oxidative-related responses (malondialdehyde, Ca, Fe and Mn), which might give support to asymmetry interaction between copper and atrazine accumulation in A. tatarinowii.

Sub-organism (acetylcholinesterase activity), population (survival) and chemical concentration responses reinforce mechanisms of antagonism associated with malathion toxicity.

Abstract
Within human modified ecosystems the effects of individual stressors are difficult to establish amid co-occurring biological processes, environmental gradients and other stressors. Coupled examination of several endpoints across different levels of organisation may help elucidate the individual and combined effects of stressors and interactions. Malathion is a commonly used organophosphate pesticide that contaminates freshwaters and has strong negative effects on aquatic biota. However, both other stressors (e.g. increased sediment) and common ecosystem components (e.g. macrophytes and variable pH) can reduce the aqueous concentrations of malathion, reducing its toxic effects. We conducted a fully orthogonal bioassay to examine how pH (at 7 and 7.8) and sorptive processes (across two levels of kaoline clay 0 and 24 g L-1) affected aqueous malathion concentrations and toxicity in an aquatic invertebrate genus. Survival and acetylcholinesterase activity as a sub-organism response were examined in the mayfly Coloburiscoides spp. (Ephemeroptera; Coluburiscidae). Measured aqueous malathion concentrations decreased with increased pH and in the presence of kaolin clay. Survival declined with increasing malathion concentrations and exposure period. Results further identify that antagonism of malathion toxicity was associated with both pH (alkaline hydrolysis) and effects associated with sediment independent of pH (driven by sorptive processes). However, model predictions varied associated with target and measured concentrations and concentrations examined. Antagonistic effects were most apparent using subset target malathion concentrations because of the dominant effect of malathion at high concentrations. Acetylcholinesterase activity, identified repression occurred across all treatments and did not identify antagonistic interactions, but these results were similar to survival responses at the time points examined (i.e. 120 h). Examination of chemistry, acetylcholinesterase, and survival, affords greater understanding of stressor effects and their interactions. Measured malathion concentrations may underestimate effects on aquatic biota; not because of synergism among stressors, but because of strong effects despite antagonism.

Abstract
Current approaches are often limited to evaluating the contribution of pesticide dissipation processes in water-sediment systems as both degradation and phase transfer, that is, sorption-desorption, contribute to the apparent decrease of pesticide concentration. Here, the dissipation of widely used herbicides acetochlor and S-metolachlor was examined in laboratory by water-sediment microcosm experiments under oxic and anoxic conditions. Compound-specific isotope analysis (CSIA) emphasized insignificant carbon isotope fractionation in the sediment, indicating prevailing pesticide degradation in the water phase. Conceptual modeling accounting for phase transfer and biodegradation indicated that biodegradation may be underestimated when phase transfer is not included. Phase transfer does not affect carbon isotope fractionation for a wide spectrum of molecules and environmental conditions, underscoring the potential of pesticide CSIA as a robust approach to evaluate degradation in water-sediment systems. CSIA coupled with the identification of transformation products by high-resolution tandem mass spectrometry suggests the degradation of acetochlor and S-metolachlor to occur via nucleophilic substitution and the predominance of oxalinic acids as transformation products under both anoxic and oxic conditions. Altogether, combining the pesticide CSIA, the identification of transformation products, and the use of conceptual phase-transfer models improves the interpretation of pesticide dissipation in water-sediment systems.

Abstract
Methiozolin is a novel herbicide for controlling annual bluegrass. After applying 14C labelled methiozolin in two sediment (clay loam and sand)-water systems under aerobic conditions, its distribution, half-life, and metabolites within 300 days were investigated. The mass balance ranged within 92.0%-104.4% of applied radioactivity (AR). Radioactivity in the water declined sharply from 94.4% to 0.5% AR, while in the sediment it increased to 83.9% AR at 14 days before declining to 9.1% AR. The volatiles were minimal (< 0.5% AR), and the evolved labelled CO2 accounted for up to ~ 33.4% AR. From Radio-HPLC analysis, labelled methiozolin in water decreased from 108.9% to 0% AR, while a maximum of 15.1% AR remained in the sediment at the end. Eight metabolites were detected, all at minor levels and accounting for < 5.5% AR. The half-life of labelled methiozolin in the total sediment-water systems were 50.7 and 38.7 days for clay loam and sand, respectively.

Abstract
Investigation of the dissipation and transformation of pesticide through laboratory experiments, conducted in accordance with standard and newly developed designs, gives us valuable information to understand their environmental behavior. We have also been investigating the mechanisms of partition and transformation reactions of pesticides, not only through kinetic analyses, but also through theoretical approaches based on their molecular properties estimated using various spectroscopies and molecular orbital calculations. Furthermore, synthetic iron porphyrin with a peroxide was shown to be a good model to simulate the P450-catalyzed oxidation in the metabolism of pesticides. Through these investigations, the knowledge of surface water, soil, sediment, and plants, such as their properties and constituents, was found indispensable to a deep understanding of the mechanism in the hydrolysis, photolysis, and metabolism of pesticides.

Abstract
A total 190 experiments were performed to study the dissipation kinetics of monochloramine (NH2Cl, CAS no 10599-90-3) in surface water samples from six rivers (Loire, Rhône, Meuse, Garonne, Seine and Moselle) and an artificial reservoir (Mirgenbach), all located in France. Experiments were conducted in an open reactor, under relevant controlled environmental conditions. The impact of various parameters such as initial NH2Cl concentration, temperature, pH, presence of sediments, sampling site and collection period was investigated. It was found that NH2Cl dissipated rapidly without any lag phase, and that decay follows an apparent first-order kinetics (r2 > 0.99). Presence of sediment greatly accelerated decay. Half-lives were generally <1 h in river water in presence of natural sediment, but of several hours without sediment. The impact of pH was low for the normal river water pH range. However, increase in temperature significantly accelerated decay. The combination of high initial NH2Cl concentrations and elevated temperatures generally gives half-lives similar to those obtained at lower temperatures and lower concentrations. Short half-lives (0.06 to 1.50 h) were found in all the surface waters examined, regardless of geographic location of sampling site or collection period, indicating no temporal or site-specific effects on NH2Cl dissipation. Decay was slightly faster at lower initial concentrations, which supports extrapolation of half-lives measured in this study to a wide range of environmental concentrations. It can thus be assumed that NH2Cl degradation in river and reservoir waters is mainly determined by presence of sediments and temperature.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In Japan, while experimental data for the dissipation behavior of paddy pesticides under a standardized test system are available, the application of a mathematical model is limited. This paper proposes a new model calibration procedure for inversely deriving the model parameters from the experimental data. This procedure is tested in the open software R by running an improved Pesticide Concentration in Paddy Field-1 (PCPF-1) model with R packages to analyze the dissipation of simetryn and molinate in flooded lysimeters and paddy fields. RESULTS The model fitting was performed by a random minimization routine. Furthermore, the uncertainties of the model parameters envisioned by the global sensitivity analysis were successfully reduced using the Markov chain Monte Carlo technique. The calibrated simulation was validated at each test plot by confirming multiple statistical indices (i.e. Nash-Sutcliffe efficiency 0.88-1.00, percent bias <±5%). The dissipation pathways of two herbicides were quantitatively clarified by the mass balance of calibrated simulations and the effect of the unexpected herbicide runoff was quantified. The case study showed that the adjustment of daily percolation rate in the lysimeter experiment is the key to simulate the actual paddy field condition more accurately, especially in a case where pesticides show higher water solubility and soil mobility. CONCLUSION The developed procedure can analyze the experimental data with acceptable accuracy and extract the unobservable information quantitatively. Our approach is applicable to the optimization of not only the model but also future experimental design. © 2018 Society of Chemical Industry.

Part 1: Submerged application of granular pesticides. JOURNAL OF PESTICIDE SCIENCE 2019; 44:48-60. [PMID: 30820173 PMCID: PMC6389839 DOI: 10.1584/jpestics.d18-048] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/10/2018] [Accepted: 11/13/2018] [Indexed: 06/09/2023]
Abstract
Three-year comprehensive experiments were conducted to compare the dissipation patterns of a total of 16 pesticides, including 3 metabolites, as granular formulations applied in lysimeters and paddy fields with two soil types. Analytical concentrations of the target pesticides in paddy water were analyzed using a granular kinetic model consisting of the following parameters: release rate, decrease rate, and dissolved concentration. Results of parameter grouping analyses of the kinetic models showed that 56% of data reproducibility (entire grouping) was obtained between replicates for the lysimeters. In comparisons between the lysimeters and paddy fields, 48% of decrease rates and 34% of release rates were grouped, although significant differences were observed with a nearly 90% difference for dissolved concentrations. These differences might be attributed to the hydrological components such as water management and meteorological covariates in paddy fields, the daily percolation in lysimeters and the adsorption-desorption kinetics between paddy water and soil.
