Freshwater ecosystems face a particularly high risk of biodiversity loss compared to marine and terrestrial systems. The use pesticides in agricultural fields is recognized as relevant stressor for freshwater environments, exerting negative impact worldwide on the overall status health communities. In present work, part Horizon 2020 funded SPRINT project, occurrence 193 pesticide residues was investigated 64 small water bodies distinct typology (creeks, streams, channels, ditches, rivers,...
Intensive and widespread use of pesticides raises serious environmental human health concerns. The presence levels 209 pesticide residues (active substances transformation products) in 625 samples (201 soil, 193 crop, 20 outdoor air, 115 indoor dust, 58 surface water, 38 sediment samples) have been studied. were collected during the 2021 growing season, across 10 study sites, covering main European crops, conventional organic farming systems. We profiled found different matrices using...
Pesticides are widely used as plant protection products (PPPs) in farming systems to preserve crops against pests, weeds, and fungal diseases. Indoor dust can act a chemical repository revealing occurrence of pesticides the indoor environment at time sampling (recent) past. This turn provides information on exposure humans their homes. In present study, part Horizon 2020 funded SPRINT project, presence 198 pesticide residues was assessed 128 samples from both conventional organic farmworker...
The widespread and excessive use of pesticides in modern agricultural practices has caused pesticide contamination the environment, animals, humans, with confirmed serious health consequences. This study aimed to identify 20 most critical substances based on an analysis detection frequency (DF) median concentrations (MC) across environmental biological matrices. A sampling campaign was conducted 10 case sites Europe 1 Argentina, each encompassing conventional organic farming systems. We...
Concentrations of Dechlorane (Dec) 603 (0.75 ng/g lipid weight (lw); mean) and Dec 602 (0.38 lw; were quantified in more than 95% the franciscana (Pontoporia blainvillei) dolphin samples, whereas frequency detection decreased to 75% for Plus (DP) (1.53 lw, mean). The presence Chlordene (CP) was also observed (0.13 half samples. On contrary, 604, decachloropentacyclooctadecadiene (aCl10DP), undecachloropentacyclooctadecadiene (aCl11DP) concentrations below limit quantifications all cases. To...
Environmental contextThe potential of pollutants to migrate from biosolids must be considered when assessing the environmental risk associated with application in agriculture. We conducted semi-field tests simulating natural conditions determine leaching and runoff capacity emerging organic contaminants following fortification municipal biosolids. demonstrate transfer biosolid-amended soil leachate water generated by rainfall. AbstractAnthropogenic perfluoroalkyl substances, PFASs,...
