Summary: Cadmium (Cd) is a toxic metal that can cause chronic exposure and increase the risk of various cancers. It is mainly released into the environment through human activities such as industrial processes, pollution, waste incineration, and electronic waste recycling. Cd-induced carcinogenesis mechanisms include oxidative stress, inhibition of antioxidant enzymes, lipid peroxidation, and interference with DNA repair systems. Proper treatments for Cd poisoning and preventive measures to counteract chronic exposure are summarized in this paper.

Summary: An increasing number of studies have found that various organisms are stimulated by environmental contaminants. This literature review focuses on the sublethal stimulation and hormetic responses of arthropod parasitoids and parasites to pesticides and other contaminants, with a specific emphasis on their agricultural and environmental importance. The review shows that different pesticides, applied at sublethal doses either individually or in combination, can stimulate various arthropod parasitoids and parasites, affecting their physiology, behavior, and fitness. This has implications for ecological health and pesticide risk assessments, as well as potential benefits for mass rearing of biological control agents.

Summary: In this study, a real-time and in vivo untargeted analytical technique was developed to capture living gut microbial metabolites using a novel composite solid-phase microextraction (SPME) fiber. The exposure risks of a typical antibiotic, norfloxacin (NFX), to gut bacteria were investigated, and it was found that low environmentally relevant concentrations of NFX could affect the normal metabolism of gut bacteria. NFX also exhibited species-specific toxic effects on microbial growth and impacted human intestinal health. This study highlights the suitability of in vivo SPME in metabolite extraction and its potential application in environmental metabolomics.

Summary: The study investigated the effects of sublethal doses of glyphosate on oxidative stress and mitochondrial homeostasis in honeybees. The results suggest that glyphosate directly affects honeybees' health, resulting in an insufficient response of the antioxidant system to oxidative stress, leading to an increase in lipid peroxidation and oxidative damage. It is necessary to explore alternatives to glyphosate and determine their potential harm to non-target organisms.

Summary: Widespread pollution of aquatic environments by microplastics is a serious environmental threat. This study found that different types of microplastics released significant amounts of dissolved organic carbon and inorganic carbon when in contact with water for a long time. Various elements and harmful compounds were also leached from the microplastics. These results provide insight into the transfer of various compounds from microplastics to ambient water.

Summary: This paper examines the impact of China's environmental monitoring centralization on firms' greenwashing practices. The study finds that environmental centralization can effectively reduce greenwashing, especially when there is a high level of decentralization. Privately-owned firms with high pollution and technology intensity are particularly motivated to reduce greenwashing as environmental decentralization levels increase. The centralization of environmental monitoring policy shock can effectively curb greenwashing practices by strengthening environmental regulation levels.

Summary: This study used IPCC scenarios to simulate the effects of climate change on the population dynamics of the shore crab. The results showed that temperature changes have a greater impact on the species compared to salinity changes, and drought conditions accompanied by salinity changes also have negative effects on the population. Both population increase and local extinction of the shore crab can have significant impacts on temperate coastal ecosystems.

Summary: This study introduces a novel pilot-scale technology (FILTRAFLO(TM)-P reactor) for the recovery of phosphate from wastewater in a rural setting. The results demonstrate that the FILTRAFLO(TM)-P unit can efficiently remove phosphate from effluent, even at low concentrations, and has the potential for resource recovery through bio-based waste management. The adsorption mechanisms of phosphate were identified as surface microprecipitation and inner-sphere complexation.

Summary: Lead is a toxic metal that can cause death or sub-lethal effects when ingested. Recent legislation in the European Union has banned the use of lead shot in wetlands to reduce its impact on wildfowl. A study in Scotland found that strict compliance with the ban resulted in relatively low lead ingestion rates, but the potential fitness effects of chronic lead poisoning still persist.

Summary: One of the effects of climate change is sea-level rise. Recent IPCC reports project that sea levels could rise by 1-2 meters by 2100 due to greenhouse gas emissions. Satellite studies show that this effect is uneven, with certain regions experiencing sea-level rise effects sooner, such as estuaries. However, there is limited research on the prediction of sea-level rise effects in estuaries, making this study valuable for decision-makers.

Summary: By analyzing the prevalence of tuberculosis in cattle and wild boar as well as their ranging behavior and habitat use in Asturias, northern Spain from 2014 to 2020, this study found that wild boar may contribute to the re-emergence of TB in the region. Infected wild boar shared the same strains of M. bovis with infected cattle, and their spatiotemporal overlap around pastures increased the transmission risk of TB. These findings are important for monitoring and eradication efforts against tuberculosis.

Summary: Motion-sensitive cameras are widely used for non-invasive monitoring, but the estimation of movement parameters is time-consuming. A study on wildlife populations in Europe showed significant intra-species variation in movement parameters, and predicted movement data led to biased density estimates. Therefore, it is recommended that monitoring programs estimate movement parameters and use camera data for accurate density estimates.

Summary: In this study, a human physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model of diethyl phthalate (DEP) was developed to assess its toxicity. The model considers the distribution and metabolism of DEP and its active metabolite monoethyl phthalate (MEP) in different tissue compartments. Sensitivity analysis and Bayesian Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) simulations were performed to evaluate the uncertainty and variability of the model parameters. The results suggest that dermal absorption is an important route of exposure to DEP in the environment.

Summary: This study investigates the feasibility and mechanisms of a chemical-free nanobubble-based AOP for treating organic micropollutants in water. The results show that the oxygen nanobubble AOP has a significantly higher removal efficiency compared to air and nitrogen nanobubbles. The treatment performance is not affected by pH and the presence of ions. Higher initial concentrations of the micropollutant lead to slower treatment processes, but similar removal performance is achieved in the end. The presence of organic matter reduces the removal rate of the micropollutant. The results have practical feasibility for water and wastewater treatment.

It was found that increasing the application of thiencarbazone-methyl center dot isoxaflutole resulted in increased stress on soil bacterial community structure and diversity. Increasing soil pH was recognized as a key factor in improving the diversity and structure of soil microflora. Supplemental use of nitrapyrin or modified attapulgite can increase soil pH and improve bacterial diversity.
