Abstract
The feasibility of using walnut shell biochar to mediate biodegradation of Cupriavidus nantongensis X1T for profenofos was investigated. The results of scanning electron microscopy, classical DLVO theory and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy indicated that strain X1T was stably immobilized on biochar by pore filling, van der Waals attraction, and hydrogen bonding. Profenofos degradation experiments showed that strain X1T immobilized on biochar significantly decomposed profenofos (shortened the half-life by 5.2 folds) by promoting the expression of the degradation gene opdB and the proliferation of strain X1T. The immobilized X1T showed stronger degradation ability than the free X1T at higher initial concentration, lower temperature and pH. The immobilized X1T could maintain 83% of removal efficiency for profenofos after 6 reuse cycles in paddy water. Thus, X1T immobilized using walnut shell biochar as a carrier could be practically applied to biodegradation of organophosphorus pesticides present in agricultural water.

Abstract
Excessive intake of benzaldehyde and its derivatives can cause irreversible damage to living organisms. Hence, benzaldehyde derivatives with different para-substitutions of push/pull electronic groups were chosen to investigate the effect of different substituent properties on the structure of human serum albumin (HSA). The binding constants, number of binding sites, major interaction forces, protein structural changes, and binding sites of benzaldehyde (BzH) and its derivatives (4-BzHD) with HSA in serum proteins were obtained based on multispectral and molecular docking techniques. The mechanism of BzH/4-BzHD interaction on HSA is mainly static quenching and is accompanied by the formation of a ground state complex. BzH/4-BzHD is bound to HSA in a 1:1 stoichiometric ratio. The interaction forces for the binding of BzH/4-BzHD to HSA are mainly hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic interaction, which are also accompanied by a small amount of electrostatic interactions. The effect of BzH/4-BzHD on HSA conformation follows: 4-Diethylaminobenzaldehyde (4-DBzH) > 4-Nitrobenzaldehyde (4-NBzH) > 4-Hydroxybenzaldehyde (4-HBzH) > 4-Acetaminobenzaldehyde (4-ABzH) > BzH, which means that the stronger push/pull electronic strength of the para-substituted benzaldehyde derivatives has a greater effect on HSA conformation. Furthermore, the concentration-lethality curves of different concentrations for BzH/4-BzHD on zebrafish verified above conclusion. This work provides a scientific basis for the risk assessment of benzaldehyde and its derivatives to the ecological environment and human health and for the environmental toxicological studies of benzaldehyde derivatives with different strengths of push/pull electron substitution.

Abstract
Fungicide carboxin was commonly used in the form of seed coating for the prevention of smut, wheat rust and cotton damping-off, leading carboxin and its probable carcinogenic metabolite aniline to directly enter the soil with the seeds, causing residual pollution. In this study, a novel carboxin degrading strain, Delftia sp. HFL-1, was isolated. Strain HFL-1 could use carboxin as the carbon source for growth and completely degrade 50 mg/L carboxin and its metabolite aniline within 24 h. The optimal temperatures and pH for carboxin degrading by strain HFL-1 were 30 to 42 °C and 5 to 9, respectively. Furthermore, the complete mineralization pathway of carboxin by strain HFL-1 was revealed by High Resolution Mass Spectrometer (HRMS). Carboxin was firstly hydrolyzed into aniline and further metabolized into catechol through multiple oxidation processes, and finally converted into 4-hydroxy-2-oxopentanoate, a precursor of the tricarboxylic acid cycle. Genome sequencing revealed the corresponding degradation genes and cluster of carboxin. Among them, amidohydrolase and dioxygenase were key enzymes involved in the degradation of carboxin and aniline. The discovery of transposons indicated that the aniline degradation gene cluster in strain HFL-1 was obtained via horizontal transfer. Furthermore, the degradation genes were cloned and overexpressed. The in vitro test showed that the expressed degrading enzyme could efficiently degrade aniline. This study provides an efficient strain resource for the bioremediation of carboxin and aniline in contaminated soil, and further revealing the molecular mechanism of biodegradation of carboxin and aniline.

Abstract
Pyrrolizidine alkaloids (PAs) and their N-oxides (PANOs) are novel contaminants in tea. However, the source of PA/PANO contamination in tea remains unclear. In this study, 15 PAs/PANOs were extracted from plant samples (tea, fresh tea leaves, and weeds) with 0.1 M sulfuric acid and from soil with 0.1 M sulfuric acid methanol after adjusting soil acidity with 0.1 M trisodium citrate. Satisfactory recoveries of PAs/PANOs from four different matrices at 0.02, 0.1, and 0.5 mg kg-1 was 72%-114% with relative standard deviations (RSD) of 0.03%-16%. Seven out of 15 PAs/PANOs were detected in tea purchased from the local market ranging from undetected to 96.2 μg kg-1. Thirteen, three, and four PAs/PANOs were detected in weeds, fresh tea leaves, and soil, respectively. Based on the types of PAs/PANOs detected in the three matrices, it was preliminarily speculated that PAs/PANOs in tea originated from weeds in the tea garden.

Abstract
Intensive livestock farming has been implicated as a notorious hotspot for antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) due to the excessive or inappropriate use of in-feed antibiotics over the past few decades. Since China implemented a ban on the use of antibiotics in animal feed since 2020, the dissemination of ARGs in the vicinity of feedlots has remained unclear. This study presents a case study that aims to investigate the dispersal of antibiotics and ARGs from a chicken feedlot (established in 2020) to the adjacent aquatic and soil environments. Comparing the sample collected from upstream area, the water and sediment samples from midstream and downstream areas showed an increase in total antibiotic residues and metal content (Cu and Zn) by 4.2-5.3 fold and 1.3-22.6 fold, respectively. The downstream water samples exhibited a 2.49-2.93-fold increase in the abundance of ARGs and a 1.48-1.75-fold increase in the abundance of metal resistance genes (MRGs). The results of Pearson correlation and metagenome-assembled genome revealed a tendency for the co-occurrence of ARGs and MRGs. The dissemination of ARGs and MRGs is primarily driven by tetracycline, tylosin, Cu, and, Mn, with mobile genetic elements playing a more significant role than bacterial communities. These findings shed light on the overlooked co-dispersal pattern of ARGs and MRGs in the environment surrounding feedlots, particularly in the context of banning in-feed veterinary antibiotics.

Abstract
Objective: To assess the levels of serum glycocalyx markers in the first 24 hours after cardiac arrest (CA) and investigate their relationship with 30-day outcomes. Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted on prospectively collected data from CA patients, who were admitted to the intensive care units of the Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University and obtained return of spontaneous circulation for more than 24 hours between September 2021 and October 2022. Serum samples obtained at the 24-hour after CA were utilized to measure the levels of glycocalyx markers, including heparan sulfate (HS), hyaluronic acid (HA), and syndecan-1 (Sdc-1). Patients were allocated into good function (CPC1-2) and poor function (CPC3-5) groups on the basis of cerebral performance category (CPC) at 30 days post-CA. Logistic regression analysis was used to determine the association between serum glycocalyx markers and neurological outcomes. Patients were regrouped in light of 30-d mortality and Cox regression analysis was used to determine the association between serum glycocalyx markers and 30-d mortality. Results: A total of 71 patients were included in the study, including 31 (43.7%) females and 40 (56.3%) males, with an average age of (59.0±17.0) years. The poor function group (n=49) demonstrated significantly elevated levels of HS and HA when compared to the good function group (n=22) [HS: 2 461.0(1 623.0, 5 492.0) μg/L vs 1 492.0 (914.0, 2 550.0) μg/L, P=0.008; HA: 124.0(97.0, 365.0)μg/L vs 337.0(135.0, 1 421.0) μg/L, P=0.033]. Adjusted logistic regression analysis revealed that HS was independently associated with poor neurological outcome [odds ratio (OR)=0.389, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.182-0.828, P=0.014]. In the 30-day mortality analysis, the death group (n=32) exhibited significantly higher levels of HS and HA when compared to the survival group (n=39) [HS: 1 880.0(1 011.0, 3 554.0) μg/L vs 2 500.0(1 726.0, 6 276.0) μg/L, P=0.027; HA: 162.0(99.0, 537.0) μg/L vs 813.0(148.0, 1 531.0) μg/L, P=0.025]. Adjusted Cox regression analysis indicated that elevated levels of HS and HA were independent risk factors (HS: HR=1.697, 95%CI: 1.126-2.557, P=0.011; HA: HR=1.336, 95%CI: 1.047-1.705, P=0.020) for 30-day mortality. Conclusions: High level of serum HS in 24 hours after CA may serve as a potential predictive marker for both neurological function and 30-day mortality. However, high level of serum HA appears to primarily predict 30-day mortality. Sdc-1 does not seem to contribute to outcome prediction.

Abstract
Pyrrolizidine alkaloids (PAs) have been detected in tea and can threaten human health. However, the specific source of PAs in tea is still unclear. Here, 88 dried tea products collected from six major tea-producing areas in Anhui Province, China, were analyzed. The detection frequency was 76%. The content of total PAs in dried tea was between 1.1 and 90.5 μg/kg, which was all below the MRL recommended by the European Union (150 μg/kg). In the Shexian tea garden, PAs in the weeds and weed rhizospheric soil around tea plants and the fresh tea leaves were analyzed. Intermedine (Im), intermedine-N-oxide (ImNO), and jacobine-N-oxide (JbNO) were transferred through the weed-to-soil-to-tea route into the fresh tea leaves; only Im and ImNO were detected in dried tea samples. Potential risk of the total PAs in the tea infusion was assessed according to the margin of exposure method, and it might be a low concern for public health.

Abstract
Chiral pesticides may exhibit enantioselectivity in terms of bioconcentration, environmental fate, and reproductive toxicity. Here, chiral prothioconazole and its metabolites were selected to thoroughly investigate their enantioselective toxicity and mechanisms at the molecular and cellular levels. Multispectral techniques revealed that the interaction between chiral PTC/PTCD and lysozyme resulted in the formation of a complex, leading to a change in the conformation of lysozyme. Meanwhile, the effect of different conformations of PTC/PTCD on the conformation of lysozyme differed, and its metabolites were able to exert a greater effect on lysozyme compared to prothioconazole. Moreover, the S-configuration of PTCD interacted most strongly with lysozyme. This conclusion was further verified by DFT calculations and molecular docking as well. Furthermore, the oxidative stress indicators within HepG2 cells were also affected by chiral prothioconazole and its metabolites. Specifically, S-PTCD induced more substantial perturbation of the normal oxidative stress processes in HepG2 cells, and the magnitude of the perturbation varied significantly among different configurations (P > 0.05). Overall, chiral prothioconazole and its metabolites exhibit enantioselective effects on lysozyme conformation and oxidative stress processes in HepG2 cells. This work provides a scientific basis for a more comprehensive risk assessment of the environmental behaviors and effects caused by chiral pesticides, as well as for the screening of highly efficient and less biotoxic enantiomeric monomers.

Abstract
Phenol, as an important chemical raw material, often exists in wastewater from chemical plants and pollutes soil and groundwater. Aerobic biodegradation is a promising method for remediation of phenolic wastewater. In this study, degradation characteristics and mechanisms of phenol in Cupriavidus nantongensis X1 were explored. Strain X1 could completely degrade 1.5 mM phenol within 32 h and use it as the sole carbon source for growth. The optimal degradation temperature and pH for phenol by strain X1 were 30 °C and 7.0. The detection of 3-oxoadipate and 4-hydroxy-2-oxopentanoate indicated that dual metabolic pathways coexist in strain X1 for phenol degradation, ortho- and meta-pathway. Genome and transcriptome sequencing revealed the whole gene clusters for phenol biomineralization, in which C12O and C23O were key enzymes in two metabolic pathways. The ribosome proteins were also involved in the regulation of phenol degradation. Meanwhile, the degradation activities of enzyme C23O was 188-fold higher than that of C12O in vitro, which indicated that the meta-pathway was more efficient than ortho-pathway for catechol degradation in strain X1. This study provides an efficient strain resource for phenol degradation, and the discovery of dual metabolic pathways provides new insight into the aerobic biological metabolism and bioremediation of phenol.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Thiamethoxam (TMX) is insecticidal, but also can trigger physiological and metabolic reactions of plant cycles. The objective of this work was to evaluate the physiological and metabolic effect of TMX on tea plants and its potential benefits. RESULTS In this study, dose of TMX (0.09, 0.135 and 0.18 kg a.i./ha) were tested. Except for peroxidase (POD) and glutathione S-transferase (GST), chlorophyll, carotenoid, catalase (CAT) and malondialdehyde (MDA) were significantly affected compared with the controls. The CAT activity was increased by 3.38, 1.71, 2.91 times, respectively, under three doses of TMX treatment. The metabolic response between TMX treatment and control groups on the third day was compared using a widely targeted metabolomics. A total of 97 different metabolites were identified, including benzenoids, flavonoids, lipids and lipid-like molecules, organic acids and derivatives, organic nitrogen compounds, organic oxygen compounds, organoheterocyclic compounds, phenylpropanoids and polyketides, and others. Those metabolites were mapped on the perturbed metabolic pathways. The results demonstrated that the most perturbation occurred in flavone and flavonol biosynthesis. The beneficial secondary metabolites luteolin and kaempferol were upregulated 1.46 and 1.31 times respectively, which protect plants from biotic and abiotic stresses. Molecular docking models suggest interactions between TMX and flavonoid 3-O-glucosyltransferase. CONCLUSION Thiamethoxam spray positively promoted the physiological and metabolic response of tea plants. And this work also provided the useful information of TMX metabolism in tea plants as well as rational application of insecticides. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Strong shocks are essential components in many high-energy-density environments such as inertial confinement fusion implosions. However, the experimental measurements of the spatial structures of such shocks are sparse. In this paper, the soft x-ray emission of a shock front in a helium gas mixture (90% helium, 10% neon) and a pure neon gas was spatially resolved using an imaging spectrometer. We observe that the shock width in the helium mixture gas is about twice as large as in the pure neon gas. Moreover, they exhibit different precursor layers, where electron temperature greatly exceeds ion temperature, extending for more than ∼350µm with the helium gas mixture but less than 30µm in the pure neon. At the shock front, calculations show that the electrons are strongly collisional with mean-free path two orders of magnitude shorter than the characteristic length of the shock. However, the helium ions can reach a kinetic regime as a consequence of their mean-free path being comparable to the scale of the shock. A radiation-hydrodynamic simulation demonstrates the impact of thermal conduction on the formation of the precursors with charge state, Z, playing a major role in heat flow and the precursor formation in both the helium mixture and the pure neon gases. Particle-in-cell simulations are also performed to study the ion kinetic effects on the formation of the observed precursors. A group of fast-streaming ions is observed leading the shock only in the helium gas mixture. Both effects explain the longer precursor layer in the helium shock.

Abstract
Hg2+ poses a great threat to human health and the environment due to its bioaccumulation and permanent damage. Herein, a reversible CHEF-based near-infrared fluorescent probe 2-(3-((E)-4-((E)-4-(diethylamino)-2- hydroxybenzylidene)amino)styryl)-5,5-dimethylcyclohex-2-en-1-ylidene)propanedinitrile (DHEY) capable of specifically recognizing Hg2+ was constructed. DHEY exhibits advantages of large Stokes shift (157 nm), excellent selectivity, high sensitivity (LOD = 3.2 μg/L), and fast response efficiency (<3 min). Interestingly, DHEY can also realize rapid and effective detection of Hg2+ after being recycled 7 times. The successful recovery of trace Hg2+ in different environmental water samples fully demonstrates the potential of DHEY for actual applications. In particular, DHEY enables real-time observation of the distribution and translocation pattern of exogenous Hg2+ in HeLa cells and zebrafish. This work provides important theoretical support for investigating the fate of heavy metal ions in the environment using fluorescence techniques.

Abstract
As a typical chiral triazole fungicide, the enantioselective toxicity of prothioconazole to environmental organisms is of increasing concern. Herein, the binding mechanism of chiral PTCs to BSA was investigated by multi-spectral technique and molecular docking. Fluorescence titration and fluorescence lifetime experiments fully established that quenching BSA fluorescence by chiral PTCs is static quenching and could spontaneously bind to BSA. Hydrophobic interactions dominate the binding process of chiral PTCs to BSA. Differently, although both chiral PTCs and BSA have a primary binding site, the difference in chiral isomerism leads to a stronger binding ability of S-PTC than R-PTC. Both configurations of PTC can change the conformation of BSA and induce changes in the microenvironment around its amino acid residues, and the effect of S-PTC is more significant. Overall, S-PTC exhibited a more substantial effect on BSA structure relative to R-PTC. That is, S-PTC may lead to more potent potential toxicological effects on environmental organisms. This study provides a comprehensive assessment of the environmental behavior of chiral pesticides and their potential toxicity to environmental organisms at the molecular level and provides a theoretical basis for the screening of highly effective and biologically less toxic enantiomers of chiral pesticides.

Abstract
Cupriavidus nantongensis X1T is a type strain of the genus Cupriavidus, that can degrade eight kinds of organophosphorus insecticides (OPs). Conventional genetic manipulations in Cupriavidus species are time-consuming, difficult, and hard to control. The clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat (CRISPR)/associated protein 9 (Cas9) system has emerged as a powerful tool for genome editing applied in prokaryotes and eukaryotes due to its simplicity, efficiency, and accuracy. Here, we combined CRISPR/Cas9 with the Red system to perform seamless genetic manipulation in the X1T strain. Two plasmids, pACasN and pDCRH were constructed. The pACasN plasmid contained Cas9 nuclease and Red recombinase, and the pDCRH plasmid contained the dual single-guide RNA (sgRNA) of organophosphorus hydrolase (OpdB) in the X1T strain. For gene editing, two plasmids were transferred to the X1T strain and a mutant strain in which genetic recombination had taken place, resulting in the targeted deletion of opdB. The incidence of homologous recombination was over 30%. Biodegradation experiments suggested that the opdB gene was responsible for the catabolism of organophosphorus insecticides. This study was the first to use the CRISPR/Cas9 system for gene targeting in the genus Cupriavidus, and it furthered our understanding of the process of degradation of organophosphorus insecticides in the X1T strain.

Abstract
Pyrrolizidine alkaloids (PAs) can be transferred between plants via soil. Indicators of PAs in tea products are useful for tea garden management. In the present work a total of 37 weed species, 37 weed rhizospheric soils and 24 fresh tea leaf samples were collected from tea gardens, in which PAs were detected in 35 weeds species, 21 soil samples and 10 fresh tea leaves samples. In Shexian tea garden, 12.9 μg/kg of intermedine (Im) in one bud plus three leaves, 1.40 and 14.6 μg/kg of intermedine-N-oxide (ImNO) in one bud plus two leaves and one bud plus three leaves were detected, which were transferred from the PA-producing weeds via soil. However, no PAs were detected in fresh tea leaves collected from Langxi tea garden. The results indicated that synthesis of PAs in weeds and their transfer through the weed-soil-fresh tea leaf route varied with soil environments in different tea gardens.

Abstract
Profenofos residues in the environment pose a high risk to mammals and non-target organisms. In this study, the biodegradation and detoxification of profenofos in an efficient degrading strain, Cupriavidus nantongensis X1T, was investigated. Strain X1T could degrade 88.82 % of 20 mg/L profenofos in 48 h. The optimum temperature and inoculation amount of strain X1T for the degradation of profenofos were 30-37 °C and 20 % (V/V), respectively. Metabolic pathway analysis showed that strain X1T could degrade both profenofos and its main metabolite 4-bromo-2-chlorophenol. Metabolite toxicity analysis results showed that dehalogenation was the main detoxification step in profenofos biodegradation. The key gene and enzyme for profenofos degradation in strain X1T were also explored. RT-qPCR shows that organophosphorus hydrolase (OpdB) was the key enzyme to control the hydrolysis process in strain X1T. The purified enzyme OpdB in vitro had the same degradation characteristics as strain X1T. Divalent metal cations could significantly enhance the hydrolysis activity of strain X1T and enzyme OpdB. Meanwhile, strain X1T could degrade 60.89 % of 20 mg/L profenofos in actual field soil within 72 h. This study provides an efficient biological resource for the remediation of profenofos residual pollution in the environment.

Abstract
A novel solid-phase microextraction device coated with an efficient and cheap thin film of polyurethane was developed for trace determination of 13 widely used pesticides in fruit and tea beverages. A round-shaped polyurethane film covering the bottom of a glass vial was fabricated as the sorbent to exhibit a superior capacity for preconcentrating target compounds and reducing matrix interferences. After optimization of the key parameters including the film type, extraction time, solution pH, ionic strength, desorption solvent, and conditions, this device allowed an efficient adsorption-desorption cycle for the pesticides accomplished in one vial. Coupled with gas chromatography-electron capture detection, the polyurethane-coated thin film microextraction method was successfully established and applied for the analysis of real fruit and tea drinks, showing low limits of detection (0.001-0.015 μg/L), wide linear ranges (1.0-500.0 μg/L, r2 > 0.9931), good relative recoveries (77.2%-106.3%) and negligible matrix effects (86.1%-107.5%) for the target pesticides. The proposed approach revealed strong potential of extending its application by flexibly modifying the type or size of the coating film. This study provides insights into the enrichment of contaminants from complex samples using inexpensive and reusable microextraction devices that can limit the environmental and health impact of the sample preparation protocol.

Abstract
Flavonoids can sensitize and quench the photolysis of pesticides such as profenofos in surface water. Profenofos has been frequently detected in surface and underground water. The present study investigated the photolysis of profenofos under various conditions, including natural and artificial light illumination, with and without cyanidin-3-O-glucoside (Cy3G) and in pure and surface water. The degradation half-lives of profenofos in distilled water with 10 equivalents Cy3G of profenofos were 21.7 min, 9.5 h, 12.5 h and 180 h under high-pressure mercury light, UV, Xenon lamp and solar irradiation, respectively, while those without Cy3G were 8.1 min, 6.1 h, 8.2 h and 89.9 h, respectively. The photolysis rate of profenofos under sunlight and artificial light was reduced by 1.5-2.7 times due to Cy3G, compared to the Cy3G-free control. Under sunlight irradiation, the effects of Cy3G on profenofos photolysis were larger than those under high-pressure mercury lamp irradiation. Cy3G also significantly reduced the photolysis rate of profenofos under different pH conditions and in natural water. In addition, Cy3G exhibited a significant capacity of scavenging hydroxyl radicals and quenching 1O2 in water. The effect of Cy3G on profenofos photolysis was demonstrated through their interrelations in the natural environment. These findings can help understanding of the effect of flavonoids on profenofos photolysis and are of significance for predicting the degradation kinetics of profenofos and accurately assessing its potential biological impacts.

Abstract
Pesticide residues have been a focus of attention of food safety. Different varietal pakchoi plants grown in open fields were studied to understand effects of morphology, leaf wax content, and vitamin C on the deposition, dissipation, and metabolism of chlorothalonil. The loose pakchoi plants and flat leaves were conducive to pesticide deposition, but not plants with erect leaves. Chlorothalonil on nine varieties of pakchoi dissipated in the first-order kinetic with T1/2 s of 1.4 ~ 2.0 days. Vitamin C in pakchoi could promote the dissipation of chlorothalonil. Carbendazim could significantly promote the dissipation of chlorothalonil on pakchoi. Interestingly, four metabolites of chlorothalonil were identified in the pakchoi and the metabolic pathway was predicted by DFT calculations. The risk assessment showed that pakchoi were safe for consumption after 10 days of application of the recommended dose. This work provides important information for the understanding of deposition, dissipation, and metabolism of chlorothalonil in pakchoi.

Abstract
Nanotechnology has been widely used in the field of pesticides. Integration of nano-pesticides and carbon dot fluorescence can fully utilize the potential for high admission of pesticides on leaves and convenience observation of its distribution and transport in the tissues. In the present study, a fluorescent mesoporous nanosilica with double hollow shells for loading imidacloprid (Im@FL-MSNs) was designed and synthesized. The physical and chemical properties of the imidacloprid nanocarriers were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), FT-IR spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and N2 adsorption/desorption. When the mass ratio of FL MSNs to imidacloprid is 6:5, Im@FL-MSNs exhibits good fluorescence properties, high loading efficiency (∼30%), great slow-release performance as well as pH controllability. Besides, Im@FL-MSNs can improve the ability of imidacloprid to adhere on the leaf surface of bok choy (Initial contact angled is greater than 80°). Importantly, Im@FL-MSNs did not reduce the biological activity of imidacloprid (LC50 (95% CI) = 1.43 mg/L). It was able to visually study the absorption and distribution of imidacloprid in bok choy plants, and provide theoretical and technical guidance for pesticide reduction.

Abstract
Antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) are important biological contamination factors in soil systems, posing direct or indirect threats to soil health, food safety and human health. The ubiquitous pollution of ARGs is usually implicated with the application of organic manures in agricultural soil ecosystem. However, little is known about the transmission and fate of ARGs after manure input concerning different soils. Herein, the transmission potential and temporal dynamics of manure-associated ARGs was characterized with three different agricultural soils collected from Jiangxi (JX), Zhejiang (ZJ), and Jilin (JL), respectively. The results show that manure input did not affect the total abundance of ARGs in the receiving soils, but remarkedly alter the compositions of ARGs in soils. The manure-associated ARGs were significantly enriched in the manure-amended soils, including genes conferring resistance to sulfonamide, aminoglycoside, tetracycline, chloramphenicol, and trimethoprim with the fold of 1.97 - 27.86. Variance partitioning analysis showed that the major variances of ARG community was explained by mobile genetic elements and bacterial profile (> 76%) but not the concentrations of heavy metals and antibiotics. Furthermore, 31, 37, and 38 ARG subtypes were identified as the potential extrinsic ARGs derived from manures in the JX, ZJ, and JL soils, respectively, including 13 shared ARG subtypes. It was also found that the manure-associated ARGs (aadA, sul1, sul2, tetC, and tetG) declined with the incubation time in the JX and ZJ soils, whereas they firstly decreased and then increased in the JL soil. The abundance of these five ARGs in the JL soil was significantly higher than that in the JX and ZJ soils. Collectively, this finding revealed that soil type was responsible for the transmission and fate of manure-associated ARGs in agroecosystem.

Abstract
An efficient synthesis method will allow a large number of tetramic acid analogues to be synthesized for property and potency optimization. In this study, a facile and efficient method was described for the synthesis of 3-acyltetramic acids. The synthesis was accomplished mainly via (1) mild intramolecular cyclization and (2) the formation of β-ketoamides between nucleophiles and acyl Meldrum's acids. 3-Acyltetramic acid exhibited phytotoxicity against Echinochloa crusgalli and Portulaca oleracea. At a dosage of 750 g ha-1, 6k and 6a showed high herbicidal activity against E. crusgalli, Digitaria sanguinalis and P. oleracea, Amaranthus retroflexus, respectively. 6k inhibited the synthesis of endogenous abscisic acid, thus seedling germination and plant growth. The incorporation of various acyl Meldrum's acids and amino acid esters was applicable to the parallel synthesis of 3-acyltetramic acids. The mode of action and herbicidal activity indicate that 3-tetramic acid had good herbicidal performance and was a promising herbicide candidate. This study will provide a reference for novel herbicide development.

Abstract
Sulfonamide antibiotics (SAs) are widely used in medicine, animal husbandry and aquaculture, and excessive intake of SAs may pose potential toxicity to organisms. The toxicological mechanisms of two classical SAs, sulfamerazine (SMR) and sulfamethoxazole (SMT), were investigated by molecular docking, DFT and multi-spectroscopic techniques using HSA and BSA as model proteins. The quenching of HSA/BSA endogenous fluorescence by SMR was higher than that by SMT due to the stronger binding effect of the pyrimidine ring on HSA/BSA compared to the oxazole ring, and that result was consistent with that predicted by DFT calculations. Thermodynamic parameters show that the binding of SAs to HSA/BSA is an exothermic process that proceeds spontaneously (ΔG < 0). Marker competition experiments illustrate that the binding site of SMR/SMT on serum albumin is located in subdomain IIIA. The combination of SAs and HSA/BSA is mainly realized by hydrogen bond and hydrophobic interaction, and the concept is also supported by molecular modeling. The reduced α-helix content of HSA/BSA induced by SMR/SMT indicates a greater stretching of the protein α-helix structure of the SMR/SMT-HSA/BSA. The results could provide useful toxicological information on the hazards of SAs in response to growing concern that SAs may pose a toxic threat to organisms.

Abstract
Bacterial adaption to heavy metal stress is a complex and comprehensive process of multi-response regulation. However, the mechanism is largely unexplored. In this study, cadmium (Cd) resistance and adaptation mechanism in Cupriavidus nantongensis X1T were investigated. Strain X1T could resist the stress of 307 mg/L Cd2+ and remove 70% Cd2+ in 48 h. Spectroscopic analyses suggested interactions between Cd2+ with C-N, -COOH, and -NH ligands of extracellular polymeric substances. Whole-genome sequencing found that the resistance of Cd2+ in strain X1T was caused by the joint action of Czc and Cad systems. Cd2+ at 20 mg/L elicited differential expression of 1157 genes in strain X1T. In addition to the reported effects of uptake, adsorption, effluxion, and accumulation system, the oxidative stress system, Type-VI secretory protein system, Fe-S protein synthesis, and cysteine synthesis system in strain X1T were involved in the Cd2+ resistance and accumulation. The intracellular accumulation content of Cd2+ in strain X1T was higher than the extracellular adsorption content made strain X1T to be an important resource strain in the bioremediation of Cd-contaminated sewage. The results provide a theoretical network for understanding the complex regulatory system of bacterial resistance and adaptation of Cd against stressful environments.

Abstract
The application of exogenous biodegradation strains in pesticide-polluted soils encounters the challenges of migration and persistence of inoculants. In this study, the degradation characteristics, vertical migration capacity, and microbial ecological risk assessment of an enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP)-tagged 2-Methyl-4-chlorophenoxyacetic acid (MCPA)-degrading strain Cupriavidus gilardii T1 (EGFP) were investigated in the laboratory and field soils. The optimum remediation conditions for T1 (EGFP) was characterized in soils. Meanwhile, leaching experiments showed that T1 (EGFP) migrated vertically downwards in soil and contribute to the degradation of MCPA at different depths. After inoculation with T1 (EGFP), a high expression levels of EGFP gene was observed at 28 d in the laboratory soil and at 45 d in the field soil. The degradation rates of MCPA were ≥ 60% in the laboratory soil and ≥ 48% in the field soil, indicating that T1 (EGFP) can efficiently and continuously remove MCPA in both laboratory and field conditions. In addition, the inoculation of T1 (EGFP) not only showed no significant impact on the soil microbial community structure but also can alleviate the negative effects induced by MCPA to some extent. Overall, our findings suggested that T1 (EGFP) strain is an ecologically safe resource for the in situ bioremediation of MCPA-contaminated soils.

Abstract
Toxification metabolism of the chiral triazole fungicide prothioconazole in the environment has attracted an increasing amount of attention. To better understand the fate of prothioconazole in aquatic ecosystems and develop a treatment strategy, the stereoselective toxicity, degradation and bioconcentration of prothioconazole were investigated in water with algae at the enantiomer level. There was remarkable enantioselectivity against Chlorella pyrenoidosa, and the highly toxic S-prothioconazole was preferentially degraded with enantiomer fraction values ranging from 0.5 to 0.74. Metabolism experiment results showed that the parent compound was quickly eliminated driven by biodegradation and abiotic degradation (hydrolysis, photolysis). Fourteen phase I and two phase II metabolites involved in the reactions of hydroxylation, methylation, dechlorinating, desulfuration, dehydration and conjugation were identified, where prothioconazole-desthio was the major metabolite. The highly toxic metabolite prothioconazole-desthio persisted in water and hardly degraded with or without C. pyrenoidosa. Furthermore, the reaction system including 1 mg of cobalt coated in nitrogen doped carbon nanotubes and 0.156 g of peroxymonosulfate was used to eliminate prothioconazole-desthio. Approximately 96% prothioconazole-desthio was eliminated and transformed to low toxicity metabolites. This work provides a strategy for the risk evaluation of prothioconazole in aquatic ecosystems and proposes a workable plan for the elimination of pesticide residues in water.

Abstract
Fluorescence-labeling technology has been widely used for rapid detection of pesticides in agricultural production. However, there are few studies on the use of this technology to investigate pesticide uptake and transport in plants with fluorescent nanoparticle formulations. Here, we investigated uptake, transport, accumulation and metabolism of imidacloprid loaded in fluorescent mesoporous SiO2 nanoparticles (Im@FL-MSNs) in tomato plants, and compared the results with the pesticide application in granular formulation. The results revealed that Im@FL-MSNs applied via root uptake and foliar spray both could effectively transport in tomato plants and carry the imidacloprid to plant tissues. Neither Im@FL-MSNs nor imidacloprid was detected inside of tomato fruits from root uptake or foliar spray applications. Compared with the foliar application of granular formulation, imidacloprid in Im@FL-MSNs demonstrated a higher concentration in leaves (1.14 ± 0.07 mg/kg > 1.08 ± 0.04 mg/kg, 1.13 ± 0.09 mg/kg > 1.11 ± 0.02 mg/kg), longer half-life (0.84 d < 1.31 d, 0.90 d < 1.36 d) and small numbers of metabolites formed. These results suggest that mesoporous silica nanoparticles could serve as an effective and efficient pesticide carrier for achieving the high use efficiency in plant protection. The information is also helpful to guide the pesticide applications and assess the risks associated with environmental quality and dietary consumption of vegetables.

Abstract
Enantioselective metabolism of chiral pesticide in plants is very important. In vitro system has become an effective means to study the metabolism of pesticides in plants, but the study on the metabolism of chiral pesticides has not been reported. This work compared the enantiomer metabolic behavior of acephate and its metabolite methamidophos between tea cell suspensions and excised tea stem with leaves. (±)-Acephate could be absorbed and transferred well to top leaves by the cut end of excised stem after 24 h. (±)-Methamidophos was derived from the metabolism of (±)-acephate in tea plants at 3-5% in leaves and 2-3% in stems at 216 h. The content of (+)-methamidophos was 1.5 times higher than that of (-)-methamidophos in excised leaves. Though both (±)-acephate and (±)-methamidophos could be metabolized well by cell suspension, (±)-acephate and (±)-methamidophos was non-enantioselectively metabolized in cell suspension. It was shown that using the excised tea stem with leaves for chiral pesticide metabolism studies was much closer to intact plant than cell suspensions. This result also established an effective and easily available in vitro metabolic model for the study of enantioselective metabolism of chiral contaminants from environment.

Abstract
Chlorothalonil, a widely used chloroisophthalonitrile fungicide, is highly toxic to aquatic organisms and amphibians. It is essential to understand the persistence and fate of chlorothalonil in aquatic environments. Cyanidin is one of the most common phytopolyphenolics in nature and is a strong antioxidant. This study was designed to understand fate of chlorothalonil and its analogs in surface water in the presence of cyanidin under sunlight and artificial lights. The photodegradation rates of chlorothalonil were increased by 9.6, 19, 26 and 9.1 fold, respectively, under solar, high-pressure mercury lamp (HPML), UV and Xenon lamp light irradiation, in comparison to the cyanidin-free control. Cyanidin also enhanced 2,5-dichloroisophthalonitrile and 2,4,5-trichloro isophthalonitrile (degradation products of chlorothalonil) for 20 and 4.7 fold under HPML irradiation compared to the absence of cyanidin. Chlorothalonil was transformed to 5-chloroisophthalonitrile quantitatively after stepwise dechlorination. The concentration profiles of chlorothalonil and its degradation products were well simulated in the cyanidin-triggered photoreductive dechlorination process, in which donation of hydrogen atom from cyanidin was also agreed by the density functional theory calculations. Cyanidin accelerated photolysis of dichlobenil for 4.3 fold as high as the cyanidin-free control under HPML irradiation. The results warrant an interest in further understanding photolysis of chloroarenes in natural waters and exploring the potential of using phytochemicals to abate chloroarenes-caused pollution.

Abstract
The bioavailability and toxicity of herbicides on the crop depend on its uptake efficiency from the soil, and thus the assessment of the bioavailable fraction of herbicides in soil is a crucial work. In this study, we investigated the uptake concentration and toxicity of imazethapyr in maize plant using four chemical measurements, including the extraction of in situ pore water (CIPW), ex situ pore water (CEPW), organic solvent (Csoil) and passive sampling (Cfree) in five soils. The results obtained that the CIPW in a specific soil had the most significant correlation with the uptake concentration of imazethapyr in maize plant (R2 = 0.8851-0.9708), followed by CEPW (R2 = 0.8911-0.9565) and Cfree (R2 = 0.7881-0.9673). However, Cfree showed a higher correlation when considering all five soils, and thus Cfree can describe the bioavailability beyond the types of soil. Additionally, the median inhibition concentrations (IC50) of imazethapyr to maize plant ranged from 5.0 to 6.9 mg/kg in five soils, and the CIPW, CEPW and Cfree had better relationships with the IC50 (R2 > 0.8681) than the Csoil (R2 = 0.6782). The effects of soil properties on the phytotoxicity of imazethapyr, including pH, organic matter content, cation exchange capacity and clay content, were studied, and the soil pH was shown to be a main factor. This study demonstrated that the freely dissolved fraction and soil pore water concentration of imazethapyr in soil can be used to evaluate its bioavailability and toxicity to maize.

Abstract
Abstract
In this study,90Sr was used as the test radionuclide to characterize the sorption kinetics and effects of initial 90Sr activity and remaining 90Sr in solid concentration were simulated for a near-surface repository. The study focused on the sorption characteristics of radionuclides in unsaturated groundwater environment (or vadose zone) is the important information for investigating the near-surface disposal of intermediate and low-level radioactive waste (ILLW). Moreover, the 90Sr sorption experiments reached equilibrium within 56 h, which fit to the first order sorption kinetic model, and the remaining 90Sr in mudrock samples showed obvious sorption equilibrium hysteresis, which fit to the second order sorption kinetic model. Before reaching the maximum sorption capacity, the sorption rate constant increases with 90Sr increasing; the distribution coefficient (Kd) of 56 h decreases with the remaining 90Sr decreasing. In addition, it showed that the slow sorption process dominated before the sorption reaches equilibrium. In fact, a reliable safety assessment methodology for on-going near-surface repository required a lot of the radionuclides parameters with local environment including the radionuclides sorption/desorption rate constant and maximum sorption capacity.

Abstract
An economical and effective thin film microextraction (TFME) for simultaneous analysis of ten neonicotinoid insecticides and metabolites in fruit juice and tea, was developed based on the combination of polyurethane (PU) and polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) films as the sorbent followed by ultra high performance liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry. The PU/PMMA composite was evidenced to possess rapid adsorption and strong accumulation towards neonicotinoids compared with the films used alone. A series of parameters were optimized, and the agitation mode, film size, ionic strength, desorption solvent and sample pH were found to dominate the microextraction process rather than the extraction temperature, agitation time and sample volume. The thin films are cost effective and efficient for single use analysis, but still can be reused at least 8 times with no significant loss in performance. The ten neonicotinoids were measured with good recoveries (81.1-107.9%), high enrichment factors (up to 135), low limits of detection (0.001-0.1 µg L-1), and wide linearity range (1-500 µg L-1, r2>0.9981) in fruit juice (apple, lemon, and pomegranate) and tea (green tea and black tea) samples. The proposed method was successfully applied to commercial fruit and tea drinks, and no samples were tested positive on target neonicotinoids. The PU/PMMA based TFME has shown great potential as an alternative to exhaustive extraction techniques for routine screening of trace neonicotinoids in fruit juice and tea by simplifying the analytical procedure, shortening the operation time, and lowering the material expense.

Abstract
The chiral pesticide enantiomers often show selective efficacy and non-target toxicity. In this study, the enantioselective degradation characteristics of the chiral organophosphorus insecticide isocarbophos (ICP) by Cupriavidus nantongensis X1T were investigated systematically. Strain X1T preferentially degraded the ICP R isomer (R-ICP) over the S isomer (S-ICP). The degradation rate constant of R-ICP was 42-fold greater than S-ICP, while the former is less bioactive against pest insects but more toxic to humans than the latter. The concentration ratio of S-ICP to R-ICP determines whether S-ICP can be degraded by strain X1T. S-ICP started to degrade only when the ratio (CS-ICP/CR-ICP) was greater than 62. Divalent metal cations could improve the degradation ability of strain X1T. The detected metabolites that were identified suggested a novel hydrolysis pathway, while the hydrolytic metabolites were less toxic to fish and green algae than those from P-O bond breakage. The crude enzyme degraded both R-ICP and S-ICP in a similar rate, indicating that enantioselective degradation was due to the transportation of strain X1T. The strain X1T also enantioselectively degraded the chiral organophosphorus insecticides isofenphos-methyl and profenofos. The enantioselective degradation characteristics of strain X1T make it suitable for remediation of chiral organophosphorus insecticide contaminated soil and water.

Abstract
Objectives: To examine the prognosis factors of recurrence of esophageal carcinoma within 6 months after neoadjuvant therapy followd by surgery. Methods: The clinical data of 187 patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma who underwent neoadjuvant therapy followed by curative esophagectomy between January 2018 and April 2020 at Department of Thoracic Surgery, Shanghai Chest Hospital were analyzed retrospectively. There were 160 males and 27 females, aging (63.0±7.1) years (range:43 to 76 years). The t test, χ2 test and rank-sum test were used for univariate analysis of the prognosis factors for recurrence within 6 months postoperative, while the Logistic regression was used for multivariate analysis. Results: There were 30 patients (16.0%) developed recurrence within 6 months after operation, including local recurrence in 1 case, regional recurrence in 11 cases, hematogenous recurrence in 13 cases, and combined recurrence in 5 cases. Univariate analysis suggested that there was a significant difference in T staging of tumor before neoadjuvant therapy (cT), tumor regression grade, circumferential resection margin, pathological T stage (ypT) and pathological N stage (ypN) between the recurrence patients and non-recurrence patients (all P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis suggested that the cT3-4 (OR=2.701, 95%CI: 1.161 to 6.329, P=0.021) and ypN(+)(OR=1.654, 95%CI: 1.045 to 2.591, P=0.032) were the independent prognosis factors for recurrence within 6 months. Conclusion: The combination of neoadjuvant therapy and surgery is not effective in reducing early postoperative recurrence in patients who have invaded the epineurium before treatment, and still have positive lymph nodes after neoadjuvant therapy.

Abstract
The stereoselective difference of chiral pesticide enantiomers is an important factor of risk evaluation and the subject has received wide attention. In the present work, enantioselective metabolism of chiral phenylpyrazole insecticides including fipronil, ethiprole and flufiprole in rat liver microsomes was investigated in vitro. The result showed remarkable enantioselectivity for fipronil and ethiprole with the EF values of 0.11-0.58. The metabolite fipronil-sulfone was formed with the degradation of fipronil. R-Ethiprole to S-ethiprole transformation was observed, but not S-ethiprole to R-ethiprole. No enantioselective metabolism was observed for flufiprole with the EF values of 0.49-0.51. The enzymatic assays showed that the inhibition ratio of R-fipronil and S-ethiprole was 1.5-2.1times that of the corresponding enantiomers on CYP2E1 and CYP2D2 activity, leading to the enantioselective metabolism. The result of the homology modeling and molecular docking further revealed that S-fipronil (-7.56 kcal mol-1) and R-ethiprole (-6.45 kcal mol-1) performed better binding with CYP2E1 and CYP2D2, respectively. The results provided useful data for the risk evaluation of chiral phenylpyrazole insecticides on ecological safety and human health.

Abstract
Sampling is a critical step in pesticide atmospheric analysis. Passive sampling offers advantages of inexpensive and convenient air monitoring. Polyethylene films (PE) were used as a passive sampler at multiple heights in greenhouse and agricultural field for 15 days to trap atmospheric chlorothalonil and lambda-cyhalothrin in the months of May and July. Among the two PE film thicknesses (20 and 80 μm), 20 μm PE was the most effective at absorbing target pesticides from air and attains equilibrium stage earlier than 80 μm PE film. After approximately 240 h of PE exposure in greenhouse and fields, chlorothalonil and lambda-cyhalothrin reached an equilibrium stage of partitioning between air and PE. Atmospheric concentrations of chlorothalonil (p < 0.01) and lambda-cyhalothrin (p < 0.001) at 1.5 m height were higher with the concentrations of 1855.59 ± 243.85 ng/m3 and 3682.11 ± 316.71 ng/m3, respectively, in the month of May as compared to the other three respective heights. The concentrations of chlorothalonil in air at 2 m height (1587.27 ± 284.19 ng/m3) were slightly higher than 0.5 m (1392.28 ± 205.09 ng/m3). Atmospheric concentrations of lambda-cyhalothrin at 2 m (3178.26 ± 299.29 ng/m3) were significantly lower than the other heights (p < 0.05). The greenhouse air concentrations of chlorothalonil and lambda-cyhalothrin in the months of May (1855.59 ± 243.85 and 3682.11 ± 316.71 ng/m3, respectively) and July (1749.33 ± 378.61 and 3445.08 ± 390.32 ng/m3, respectively) were higher than fields. The results indicate the usability of PE films to monitor chlorothalonil and lambda-cyhalothrin and potential other semi-volatile pesticides in agricultural fields.

Abstract
Iron is one of the essential trace elements in the human body, which is involved in many important physiological processes of life. The abnormal amount of iron in the body will bring many diseases. Therefore, a novel near-infrared fluorimetric method was developed. The method is based on a fluorescent probe (E)-4-(2-(3-(dicyanomethylene)-5,5-dimethylcyclohex-1-en-1-yl)vinyl)-N, N-diethylaniline oxide (DDED) which uses N-oxide as a recognition group to real-time monitoring and imaging of Fe2+ in vivo and in vitro. The method exhibits excellent selectivity and high sensitivity (LOD = 27 nM) for Fe2+, fast reaction rate (< 4 min), extremely large Stokes shift (> 275 nm), low cytotoxicity. The strip test strongly illustrates the potential application of DDED in real environment. In particular, DDED has been successfully applied to real-time monitoring and imaging of Fe2+ in HepG2 cells and zebrafish. That is, the method has great potential for the detection of Fe2+ in living systems.

Abstract
Hydrazine (N2H4) is an environment pollutant with high acute toxicity and potential carcinogenicity, and detection of N2H4 has attracted increasing attention. In the present study, a low toxicity near-infrared fluorescent probe (DCDB) based on the intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) principle was developed. The probe DCDB exhibits excellent selectivity and high sensitivity (LOD = 1.27 ppb) for N2H4, fast reaction rate (5 min), extremely large Stokes shift (160 nm). The color transformation of the DCDB-N2H4 system from purple to pink can be observed with the naked eye. The success of N2H4 test strips to detect trace N2H4 in actual sewage strongly illustrates the practical application potential of DCDB. Importantly, DCDB can be utilized to monitor the distribution of exogenous N2H4 in vivo and in vitro.

Abstract
Chlorpyrifos is an important organophosphorus insecticide. It is highly toxic to mammals and can pollute the environment. Cupriavidus nantongensis X1T can efficiently degrade chlorpyrifos. Immobilization technology can also improve the viability, stability and catalytic ability of bacteria. In this study, strain X1T was, therefore, captured on various composite immobilized carriers, sodium alginate (SA), diatomite (KLG), chitosan (CTS) and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA). The four types of immobilized beads (SA, SA + KLG, SA + CTS and SA + PVA) could form a slice and honeycomb structure to capture strain X1T. The results showed that SA + CTS (SC) was an optimal material combination for the immobilization of strain X1T to degrade chlorpyrifos. Compared with SA-X1T, after adding CTS, the specific surface area and adsorption capacity for chlorpyrifos were increased 3.4 and 1.7 fold, respectively. SC-X1T could degrade 96.6% of chlorpyrifos at 20 mg/L within 24 h and the degradation rate constant was 4.8 fold greater than immobilized strain LLBD2, a well-studied chlorpyrifos-degrading strain. The immobilized beads SC-X1T also showed a more stable and greater degradation ability than X1T free cells for chlorpyrifos in industrial wastewater. The synergy of adsorption and degradation of immobilized strain X1T is suitable for in-situ remediation of chlorpyrifos contaminated environment.

Abstract
Objective: To examine the preliminary clinical efficacy of Chinese magnetic sphincter augmentation (MSA) in the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Methods: According to the enrollment criteria for the MSA developed by ShengJieKang Co. and Shanghai Chest Hospital (SS-MSA) clinical trial, a total of 19 GERD patients were treated with SS-MSA from August 2018 to January 2020 at Department of Thoracic Surgery, Shanghai Chest Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University. The majority of registered cases were male patients with age of (32.2±7.3) years (range: 22 to 50 years), height of (170.7±6.2) cm (range: 160 to 179 cm) and weight of (65.2±10.3) kg (range: 47.5 to 90.0 kg). SS-MSA was implanted via laparoscopy. The major evaluation indexs of postoperative efficacy were the total time of acid exposure within 24 hours and the total number of reflux. Secondary efficacy indicators included: (1) evaluation of the average daily dose of proton pump inhibitor medications; (2) the score of GERD health related quality of life questionnaire (GERD-Q) before and after MSA implantation. Paired design t-test was used to evaluate the efficacy of the SS-MSA. Results: A total of 19 patients underwent SS-MSA surgery successfully. The history of the GERD were 19 (54) months (M(Q(R))). The operation time was 63 (22) minutes and the in-hospital stay was 3 (2) days. No obvious surgical complications occurred. Postoperative adverse events included 14 cases with mild to moderate dysphagia exited after surgery, gradually eased within 1 to 3 months, 1 case with the removal of the device after 1 month of severe swallowing difficulties, 1 case of diarrhea. No corrosion, perforation, displacement occurred. The GERD-Q score (11.0(4.5) vs. 6(1.0), t=4.274, P=0.013), 24-hour acid exposure time (6.2(4.8)% vs. 0.1(0.9)%, t=5.814, P=0.004), and Demeester score (23.72(16.20) vs. 0.96(3.10), t=6.678, P=0.003) were significantly decreased 1 year after surgery(n=5). Proton pump inhibitor reuse rates were 6/18, 5/15, 3/10, and 1/5 in 1, 3, 6 and 12 months after the operation, respectively. Conclusions: SS-MSA implantation is feasible and safe with short hospital stay and rare perioperative complications. The preliminary results is good after 1 year follow-up. It could be expected to be an ideal substitutive for future GERD treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chlorothalonil is a conventional chloroaromatic fungicide and is toxic to many aquatic species. This study was designed to investigate the effects of six flavonoids on the photolysis of chlorothalonil under sunlight and artificial light. RESULTS Flavonoids sensitized the photolysis of chlorothalonil under sunlight and artificial light by 6.7-18.3 and 2.4-7.5 times, respectively, in comparison with a flavonoid-free control. Photosensitization effect of each of the six flavonoids was greater under sunlight irradiation than under high-pressure mercury lamp irradiation. Cyanidin showed greater photosensitization effects than luteolin, galangin, quercetin, morin and kaempferol. Chlorothalonil underwent photo-reductive dechlorination and no hydrolysis product was formed in the presence of flavonoids. Hydroxyl and hydrogen radicals were detected in the absence and presence of cyanidin, respectively, under light irradiation. CONCLUSION The photosensitization effect of flavonoids on chlorothalonil photolysis is apparently related to flavonoid structure and might be due to their hydrogen donation capacity. These results highlight benefit of using flavonoids to manage aquatic pollution and reduce aquatic toxicity, and have great relevance in predicting the degradation kinetics and biological impacts of chlorothalonil in surface water. © 2020 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Functional durability of bio-augmented microbes in contaminated fields remains a major challenge in bioremediation. In the present study, various immobilization materials and compositional combinations were designed and compared to enhance the functional durability of Pseudomonas stutzeri sp. Y2 for degradation of simazine, one of the most used herbicides, in industrial wastewater and maize fields. Among four combinations of materials tested, the optimal combination obtained from the orthogonal array trials was 14% polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), 1-3% sodium alginate (SA), 2% activated carbon (AC), and 1-2% Y2 cells (PSC-Y2), which yielded 1.7 fold faster degradation of simazine at 50 mg L-1 than that by free Y2 cells in the industrial wastewater. The degradation half-lives (DT50) of simazine (10 mg L-1) by free Y2 cells and PSC-Y2 was 1.1 d and 5.3 d in laboratory soil, respectively. The DT50 of simazine by PSC-Y2 at the recommended and double dosages of simazine (0.45 and 0.9 g ai·m-2) was 17.2 d and 12.4 d in the maize fields, respectively, in comparison with 23 d and 17.4 d by free Y2 cells. In addition, the PSC-Y2 degraded 100% of atrazine and terbuthylazine, and 96% of propazine at an initial concentration of 50 mg L-1 each in 4 days. This study provides an immobilization strategy to stabilize bacteria and prolong bacterial functions to treat s-triazine herbicides contaminated water and soil.

Abstract
Passive sampling to regularly identify the occurrence of pyrethroid insecticides in urban streams is a crucial work of risk management with respect to intrinsic toxicity of pyrethroids to aquatic organisms. Polymeric films, based on an equilibrium sampling principle, have found increasing use as passive samplers for hydrophobic contaminants. Herein, we investigated two thin-film samplers, namely silicone rubber (SR) and polyvinylchloride (PVC), compatible with a suite of 8 pyrethroids, for measuring freely dissolved concentrations (Cfree) in water. The characteristics of SR and PVC samplers were estimated in terms of equilibrium partitioning coefficients (Kf) with log units of 3.90-4.67 and sampling rates (Rs) of 0.011-0.016 L/h. The parameters were correlated positively with octanol-water partition coefficients of the compounds, whereas independent on water solubility. A strong agreement between Cfree obtained from the two samplers was observed in a range of 0.1-10 μg/L for pyrethroids under laboratory simulated conditions. Both of SR and PVC were confirmed as equilibrium samplers with faster sampling rates of pyrethroids that equilibrated on films within only one week, and higher accumulation at factors of 5.3-12.5 and 1.5-2.4 compared to a performance reference compound (PRC)-preload sampler. Additionally, the comparable results of the two passive sampling methods in multiple field applications indicated that the direct deployment of the two samplers without PRCs calibration can provide reliable assessment of trace concentrations. This study demonstrated the routine utilization of SR and PVC as promising tools for rapid and sensitive in-situ monitoring of pyrethroids, and indicators for the bioavailability against total chemical concentrations in variable aquatic environments.

Abstract
Organophosphorus insecticides account for approximately 28% of the global commercial insecticide market, while 40% of them are chiral enantiomers. Chiral enantiomers differ largely in their toxicities. Enantiomers that are less active or inactive do not offer the needed efficacy but pollute the environment and cause toxicities to non-target species. Cupriavidus nantongensis X1T, a recently isolated bacterial strain, could degrade S-profenofos 2.3-fold faster than R-profenofos, while the latter is the active enantiomer potently against pest insects and has greater mammalian safety. The degradation enzyme encoded by opdB was expressed via Escherichia coli and purified. The degradation kinetics of R- and S-profenofos showed that both the purified OpdB and crude enzyme extracts had no enantiomer degradation selectivity, which strongly indicated that the degradation selectivity occurred in the uptake process. Metabolite analyses suggested a novel dealkylation pathway. This is the first report of bacterial selective uptake of organophosphates. Selective degradation of S-profenofos over R-profenofos by the strain X1T suggests a concept of co-application of racemic pesticides and degradation-selective bacteria to minimize contamination and non-target toxicity problems.

Abstract
Controversy exists on the advantages of robotic McKeown esophagectomy (RME) versus thoraco-laparoscopic McKeown esophagectomy (TLME). The aim was to evaluate the short- and mid-term outcomes of RME and TLME in the treatment of patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). A consecutive series of 652 patients, 280 in RME and 372 in TLME, who underwent minimally invasive McKeown esophagectomy for ESCC at our department from November 2015 to June 2018 was analyzed. A propensity score-matched comparison with clinicopathological covariates was performed between the two groups. Complications were categorized based on the Esophagectomy Complications Consensus Group (ECCG) recommendation. To identify the recurrence, all patients with R0 resection were followed with a median follow-up period of 20.2 months (range 1-33 months). After propensity score matching, 271 patients were identified for each cohort. In the matched cohorts, two patients died within 90 days in TLME, whereas no patients died in RME. RME was associated with similar intraoperative blood loss (P = 0.895), but with shorter surgical duration (244.5 vs. 276.0 min, P < 0.001), shorter thoracic duration (85.0 vs. 102.9 min, P < 0.001) and lower thoracic conversions (0.7% vs. 5.9%, P = 0.001). In spite of the similar results on total and thoracic lymph nodes dissection, RME yielded more lymph nodes along recurrent laryngeal nerve (4.8 vs. 4.1, P = 0.012), as well as the higher incidence of recurrent nerve injury (29.2% vs. 15.1%, P < 0.001) when compared to TLME. Tumor recurrence occurred in 30 patients and was locoregional only in 9 (3.5%) patients, systemic only in 17 (6.7%) patients, and combined in 4 (1.6%) patients in RME, while in 26 patients and was locoregional only in 10 (10.6%) patients, systemic only in 7 (2.8%) patients, and combined in 9 (3.6%) patients in TLME. RME was associated with a lower rate of mediastinal lymph nodes recurrence (2.0% vs. 5.3%, P = 0.044). Overall and disease-free survival was not different between the two cohorts (P = 0.097 and P = 0.248, respectively). RME was shown to be a safe and oncologically effective approach with favorable short- and mid-term outcomes in the treatment of patients with ESCC.

Abstract
Dihalophenols such as dichlorophenols (DCPs) are important industrial chemical intermediates, but also persistent pollutants in the environment. Oxidative dehalogenation by microbes is an efficient biological method to degrade halophenols, but the mechanism is unclear yet. Cupriavidus nantongensis X1T was a type strain of genus Cupriavidus, and could degrade 2,4-dichlorophenol of 50 mg/L within 12 h. The degradation rate constant was approximately 84 fold greater than that by Bacillus endophyticus CP1R43, a well-studied 2,4-DCP-degrading bacterial strain. The genes encoding 2,4,6-trichlorophenol monooxygenase (TcpA) and NAD(P)H:FAD reductase (Fre) from strain X1T were cloned and expressed. The expressed TcpA Fre were purified. The molecular docking of TcpA with DCPs and point mutation experiments showed that the degradation activity of TcpA was associated with the length of the hydrogen bond between the substrates and the amino acids in the active pocket. DCPs were degraded via a stepwise oxidative dechlorination in a positive relationship between the oxidation ability and the electron-withdrawing potential of the p-position group. In addition, TcpA has dual dehalogenation and denitration functions. The results demonstrate that either strain X1T or TcpA and Fre can effectively dehalogenate dihalophenols, which can be useful for the treatment of dihalophenols in wastewaters and remediation of DCP-contaminated environments.

Abstract
Diclofenac (DCF), a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, is widespread in aquatic environments and coexists with heavy metals to form combined pollution. However, the interactive effects of DCF and heavy metals on aquatic organisms remain unknown. This study aimed to investigate the interactive effects of DCF and copper (Cu) on the bioconcentration, oxidative stress status and detoxification-related gene expression in crucian carp (Carassius auratus). Fish were exposed to Cu (100 μg L-1) and DCF (1, 10, 100 and 1000 μg L-1) alone or in combination for 7 days. Results obtained showed that the treatment of Cu combined with high levels of DCF (100 and 1000 μg L-1) significantly decreased tissue concentrations of DCF and Cu compared to the correspondingly individual exposure. Concerning oxidative stress status, as reflected by the activities of antioxidant enzymes and malondialdehyde content, low exposure concentrations of DCF (1 and 10 μg L-1) seemed to mitigate the oxidative stress induced by Cu, whereas the co-exposure of Cu with the highest level of DCF (1000 μg L-1) led to stronger oxidative damage in fish liver than Cu exposure alone. With regarding to detoxification-related genes, in most cases, the expressions of cyp 1a, cyp 3a, gstα, gstπ, pxr and P-gp in crucian carp were significantly altered upon exposure to the compounds in combination compared to exposure to the compounds individually. Collectively, these findings indicate the capacity of each of these pollutants to alter bioconcentration potential, pro-oxidative effects and detoxification-related gene responses of the other when both co-occur at specific concentrations.
