Although banned long ago in many countries and jurisdictions, the organochlorine pesticide dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT) and compounds related to it remain in the aquatic environment, particularly in sediments, and can pose risks to aquatic life. To inform ecological risk assessment of these compounds, we tested the toxicity of six DDT congeners, specifically the p, p' (4,4') forms of DDT, dichlorodiphenyldichloroethylene (DDE), dichlorodiphenyldichloroethane (DDD), and dichlorodiphenylchloroethylene (DDMU), as well as the o, p' (2,4') isomers of DDT and DDD. The epibenthic amphipod, Hyalella azteca, was exposed for 7 days to waterborne chemical and assessed for changes in survival and growth.

Cyclaniliprole, a type of the third-generation anthranilic diamide insecticide, was mainly used for management of various pests. Myzus persicae (Hemiptera: Aphididae), known as the peach-potato aphid, is an economically essential pest with worldwide distribution. However, the risk assessment of cyclaniliprole in M.

The presence of pesticide residues in textiles poses a risk to human health. We established a robust and high-throughput liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method for the determination of 115 pesticide residues in textiles. In this study, we evaluated high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry conditions and sample extraction methods, including separation performance of different columns, mass conditions, extraction solvent, and extraction time.

Pesticides have a significant impact on the environment, harming valuable non-target organisms like bees. Honeybees, in particular, are ideal bioindicators of pesticide exposure due to extensive research on how pesticides affect their behavior, immunity, development, biomolecules, and detoxification. However, wild pollinators are less studied in terms of pesticide exposure, and their inclusion is essential for a comprehensive risk assessment.

People are continually and simultaneously exposed to various non-persistent pesticides as these chemicals are ubiquitously distributed in the environment. Toxicological studies have indicated the associations between non-persistent pesticides and liver fibrosis in vitro and in vivo. However, epidemical study on the deleterious effect of non-persistent pesticides on the risk of liver fibrosis is rather limited.
