At present, there is a lack of understanding the combined ecotoxicity carbon-based nanomaterials and co-contaminants. In this paper, we report on toxicity three carbon (fullerene-soot, multiwall nanotubes, graphene). Two standardized bioassays, immobilization invertebrate Daphnia magna bioluminescence inhibition marine bacteria Vibrio fischeri, have been used. Synergistic antagonistic effects binary mixtures composed fullerene soot organic co-contaminants as malathion, glyphosate, diuron,...
The climate change and increasing anthropogenic pressures are expected to limit the availability of water resources. Hence, active measures must be planned in vulnerable regions ensure a sustainable supply minimize environmental impacts. A pilot test was carried out Llobregat River (NE Spain) aiming provide useful procedure cope with severe droughts through indirect reuse. Reclaimed used restore minimum flow lower River, ensuring suitable downstream for Barcelona. monitoring performed assess...
This work describes the assessment of a selection fullerenes including C(60) and C(70) fullerene, N-methylfulleropyrrolidine, pyrrolidine tris-acid ethyl ester, [6,6]-Phenyl-C(61) butyric acid butyl ester [6,6]-Thienyl C(61) methyl in airborne particulate from Mediterranean Sea collected during two sampling campaigns Barcelona to Istanbul Alexandria, respectively. The analysis samples was carried out using new method based on liquid chromatography coupled mass spectrometry (LC-MS) presenting...
Volatile methyl siloxanes (VMS) are high-production synthetic compounds, ubiquitously found in the environment of source regions. Here, we show for first time occurrence VMS soils, vegetation, phytoplankton, and krill samples from Antarctic Peninsula region, which questions previous claims that these compounds "flyers" do not significantly reach remote ecosystems. Cyclic predominant with concentrations ranging limits detection to 110 ng/g soils. Concentrations cyclic phytoplankton negatively...
The presence of anthropogenic nanoparticles (NPs) in the aquatic environment has become an emerging concern terms environmental and health safety. In present study, we assessed Ag-bearing, Ti-bearing, Ce-bearing NPs Barcelona catchment area, including Besòs River basin coast, Ebro Delta, using single particle inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (sp-ICP-MS). Ti-NPs Ce-NPs were ubiquitously detected surface waters, their was related to a high natural background. Concentrations ranged...
Besides anthropogenic contamination, freshwater environments can also be affected by the presence of natural toxins. Mycotoxins, plant toxins and cyanotoxins are most relevant groups that found in aquatic system. However, until now, only have been more carefully studied. In present work, single workflow for assessment waters, based on suspect screening target a selected group is presented. The approach triple-stage solid-phase extraction (SPE) able to isolate wide range different polarities,...
The presence of nanomaterials in the environment has caught attention scientific because uncertainties their fate, mobility and potential toxic effects. However, few studies have determined experimentally concentration levels aquatic systems up to date, which complicates development an adequate risk assessment. In present study, occurrence ten fullerenes been assessed Sava River (Southeastern Europe): 27 freshwater samples 12 sediment from sampling points analysed during two campaigns. C60...
In this study, Mediterranean mussels (Mytilus galloprovincialis) were exposed through the diet to fullerene soot at three concentrations in parallel a control group. Their metabolomics response was assessed by high-performance liquid chromatography coupled high-resolution mass spectrometry (HPLC-HRMS). The experiments conducted marine mesocosms, during 35 days (7 of acclimatization, 21 exposure, and 7 depuration). Real conditions emulated terms physicochemical habitat. Results confirmed...
By using a normal phase column, this method is capable of unambiguously identifying and quantifying (functionalised) fullerenes in sewage water.
