10种常用农药对赤子爱胜蚓(Eisenia foetida)的急性毒性效应

为了评价农药对土壤无脊椎动物种群的生态风险,采用OECD标准滤纸法和人工土壤法测定了10种常用农药对蚯蚓(Eisenia foetida)的急性毒性效应。采用滤纸法,48h测定结果表明,4种氨基甲酸酯类(异丙威、甲萘威、速灭威和丁硫克百威)和2种有机磷类(毒死蜱和哒嗪硫磷)农药对蚯蚓的急性毒性(其LC50值为3.50(2.77～4.44)～72.42(59.58～88.05)μg·cm-2)明显高于3种昆虫生长调节剂(噻嗪酮、虫酰肼和呋喃虫酰肼)和吡蚜酮对蚯蚓的急性毒性(其LC50值>629.1μg·cm-2)。采用人工土壤法,14d测定结果表明,上述4种氨基甲酸酯类农药对蚯蚓的急性毒性(其LC50值为59.61(55.13～64.44)～134.1(127.0～141.5)mg·kg-1)明显高于上述2种有机磷类农药和其他农药对蚯蚓的急性毒性(其LC50值为193.0(180.1～206.8)～386.4(359.7～414.2)mg·kg-1)。上述结果表明,不同类型的农药对蚯蚓的毒性存在较大差异,且同一类型的不同农药品种对蚯蚓的毒性也存在较大差异。总体来看,氨基甲酸酯类农药比其他类型的农药对蚯蚓具有更高的毒性。根据《化学农药环境安全评价试验准则》,本研究采用人工土壤法测定的所有农药对蚯蚓均为低毒级。     

Relative influence of the dissolved humic material on the solid-phase extraction efficiency of pesticides from environmental water

The effect of organic matter on the solid-phase extraction (SPE) efficiency for pesticides belonging to different chemical groups (urea-derivatives, carbamates and triazines) and having different polarities, was simultaneously studied for the first time in pure and simulated water samples. SPE was carried out in precolumns packed with C18 silica or styrene-divinylbenzene copolymer PLRP-S phases on-line coupled to high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis. Retention factors in water (k'_W) were estimated for 25 compounds and used for the calculation of the theoretical breakthrough volume (Vb_T) in pure water. Experimental breakthrough volumes (Vb_E) were first determined using purified and deionized water as the matrix for selected compounds having Vb_T < 500 mL; then, the same water with an added humic acid sodium salt (HA) at 0.4–5.6 mg/L of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) content, was used as the matrix for compounds having VbE < 500 mL in pure water. Several polar pesticides showed negative linear or logarithmic Vb_E curves depending on HA content; their recoveries were also determined in environmental samples having low dissolved organic carbon values, between 0.5–6.4 mg/L. A similar behavior was observed for these compounds in simulated and natural water samples, where DOC concentration and the percolated volume (Vp) mainly determine the solute recoveries values. However, the variation of recoveries as a function of DOC content could be negative or null depending on the two examined conditions (Vp lower or larger than Vb_E in pure water). Results demonstrated that breakthrough volume must always be considered to correctly interpret the participation of dissolved humic material on the SPE efficiency of organic micropollutants in water.     

Pesticides residues in the Prochilodus costatus (Valenciennes, 1850) fish caught in the São Francisco River,Brazil

The objective of this study was to determine the levels of pesticides in the fish Prochilodus costatus caught in São Francisco River, one of most important rivers in Brazil. Thirty-six fish were captured in three different areas, and samples of the dorsal muscle and pooled viscera were collected for toxicological analysis. We evaluated the presence of 150 different classes of insecticides, fungicides, herbicides and acaricides by multiresidue analysis technique using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS), with the limit of detection of 5 ppb. In this study, organophosphorus and carbamate pesticides were detected at the highest levels in the caught fish. Among the 41 organophosphorus pesticides surveyed, nine types were detected (chlorpyrifos, diazinon, dichlorvos, disulfoton, ethion, etrimfos, phosalone, phosmet and pyrazophos) in the muscle, viscera pool, or both in 22 (61.1%) fish. Sampled tissues of 20 (55.6%) fish exhibited at least one of the eight evaluated carbamate pesticides and their metabolites: aldicarb, aldicarb sulfoxide, carbaryl, carbofuran, carbosulfan, furathiocarb, methomyl and propoxur. Fungicides (carbendazim, benalaxyl, kresoxim-methyl, trifloxystrobin, pyraclostrobin and its metabolite BF 500 pyraclostrobin), herbicides (pyridate and fluasifop p-butyl), acaricide (propargite) and pyrethroid (flumethrin) were also detected. In conclusion, P. costatus fish caught in the São Francisco River contained residues of 17 different pesticides, in both muscles and the viscera pool, indicating heavy environmental contamination by pesticides in the study area.     

Toxicity and biochemical impact of certain oxime carbamate pesticides against terrestrial snail,Theba pisana (Müller)

Abstract

The bran toxic baits (0.5 % w/w) of five oxime carbamate pesticides; aldicarb, aldoxycarb, methomyl, oxamyl and thiofanox were tested for their molluscicidal activity against Theba pisana snails under Laboratory conditions. In addition, the in vivo effects of these compounds on seven vital enzymes namely Acetylcholin‐esterase (AchE), glutathion‐S‐transferase (GST), glutamic oxlaoacetic transaminase (GOT), glutamic pyruvic transaminase (GPT), acid phosphatase (AcP), alkaline phosphatase (AIP), and adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) activities of the snail tissue were also investigated after 1,3, and 5 days of exposure. The results showed that methomyl was the most potent candidate, whereas thiofanox was the least effective one against the snails. LT₅₀’s values of aldicarb, aldoxycarb, methomyl, oxamyl and thiofanox were 5.77, 4.69, 2.31, 3.97 and 6.67 days, respectively. Results of the potency of the tested pesticides against AchE activity were in harmony with the toxicity of these compounds to snails. AchE, AcP, and AIP activities were inhibited by the tested pesticides. GST activity was inhibited by aldicarb but stimulated by oxamyl and thiofanox. Methomyl and oxamyl lead to significant elevation of GOT and GPT, whereas thiofanox treated snail induced a reduction of both enzymes activities. Aldicarb and aldoxycarb caused significant induction of ATPase activity.
