Overall, the multiregression analysis is a very effective method to enrich the understanding of NO2 distributions. It can provide scientific evidence for the relationship between NO2 and traffic, beneficial for developing the targeted policies and measures to reduce NO2 pollution levels in hot spots. This research may subsidize knowledge to serve as a tool for environmental and health authorities. A bioaccumulation study of 16 emerging contaminants including preservatives, UV-filters, biocides, alkylphenols, anionic surfactants and plasticizers, in Holothuria tubulosa Gmelin, 1791 specimens was developed. Water and sediments from their coastal habitat were also analyzed. Sediment-water distribution coefficients (log Kd) were in the range 0.78 to 2.95. A rapid uptake and bioaccumulation of pollutants was found. Compounds were detected in intestine and gonads of H. tubulosa after only eight days of exposure. Field-based bioconcentration (BCF) and biota-sediment accumulation factors (BSAF) were calculated. Log BCF > 1 were obtained for most of the compounds studied, indicating their tendency to accumulate in tissue of H. Tubulosa. BCF values decrease as follow Triclocarban > anionic surfactants > benzophenone 3 > non-ionic surfactants > bisphenol A > parabens. These data provide a detailed accounting of the distribution patterns of some emerging contaminants in organisms at the lower trophic level, representing a potential source of contaminants for organisms in higher levels of the food chain. Photosynthetic organisms need to respond frequently to the fluctuation of light quality and light quantity in their habitat. In response to the fluctuation of different single wavelength lights, these organisms have to adjust and optimize the employment of light energy by redistributing excitation energy and remodeling photosystem stoichiometry or light complex structure. However, the response of whole cellular processes to fluctuations in single wavelength light is mostly unknown. Here, we report the transcriptomic and proteomic dynamics and metabolic adaptation mechanisms of Nannochloropsis oceanica to blue and red light. Preferential exposure to different light spectra induces massive reprogramming of the Nannochloropsis transcriptome and proteome. Combined with physiological and biochemical investigation, the rewiring of many cellular processes was observed, including carbon/nitrogen assimilation, photosynthesis, chlorophyll and cartenoid biosynthesis, reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenging systems, and chromatin state regulation. A strong and rapid regulation of genes or proteins related to nitrogen metabolism, photosynthesis, chlorophyll synthesis, ROS scavenging system, and carotenoid metabolism were observed during 12 h and 24 h of exposure under red light. Additionally, two light harvesting complex proteins induced by blue light and one by red light were observed. The differential responses of N. oceanica to red and blue irradiation reveal how marine microalgae adapt to change in light quality and can be exploited for biofuel feedstock development. Sodium dimethyldithiocarbamate (SDDC) is a widely used heavy metal chelating agent in harmless treatment of wastewater and hazardous waste, but SDDC and its heavy metal chelates may leak into the environment and bring potential ecological risks. In this study, the model organism Caenorhabditis elegans was used to evaluate the toxic effect of SDDC and its heavy metal Cu, Pb chelates. Multiple endpoints were investigated by subacute exposure to SDDC (0.01-100 mg/L) and micro-sized Cu, Pb chelates of SDDC (1-100 mg/L). Our data indicated that the LC50 value of SDDC was 139.39 mg/L (95% Cl 111.03, 174.75 mg/L). In addition, SDDC was found that concentration of 1 mg/L is a safe limit value for nematode C. elegans, and concentration above 1 mg/L caused adverse effects on the survival, growth, locomotion behaviors and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production of exposed nematodes. Furthermore, all tested SDDC-Cu and SDDC-Pb chelates had obviously lower toxic effect than untreated Cu, Pb metals. These two chelates also had a lower toxic effect than SDDC agent due to its more stable structure. Moreover, SDDC-Cu had a higher toxic effect than SDDC-Pb at the same concentration.  https://www.selleckchem.com/products/ziritaxestat.html  Thus, our results suggest that SDDC as a kind of chelating agent applied in harmless treatment of heavy metals, the safe addition limit should not be exceeded. Removal of tetracycline antibiotics (TCs) by biochar adsorption is emerging as a cost-effective and environmentally friendly strategy. This study developed a novel pomelo peel derived biochar, which was prepared at 400 °C (BC-400) and 600 °C (BC-600) under nitrogen conditions. To enhance the adsorption capacity, BC-400 was further activated by KOH at 600 °C with a KOH BC-400 ratio of 41. The activated biochar (BC-KOH) displayed a much larger surface area (2457.37 m2/g) and total pore volume (1.14 cm3/g) than BC-400 and BC-600. High adsorption capacity of BC-KOH was achieved for removing tetracycline (476.19 mg/g), oxytetracycline (407.5 mg/g) and chlortetracycline (555.56 mg/g) simultaneously at 313.15 K, which was comparable with other biochars derived from agricultural wastes reported previously. The adsorption data could be fitted by the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and Langmuir isotherm model successfully. The initial solution pH indicated the potential influence of TCs adsorption capacity on BC-KOH. These results suggest that pore filling, electrostatic interaction and π-π interactions between the adsorbent and adsorbate may constitute the main adsorption mechanism. BC-KOH can be used as a potential adsorbent for removing TCs from swine wastewater effectively, cheaply and in an environmentally friendly way. Cyanobacterial blooms in drinking water are worldwide concern. It is known that pre-oxidation enhanced coagulation can be more efficient at removing algae than traditional coagulation. However, its application is hindered by high oxidant/coagulant consumption and the resultant potential health risk, in the form of algal organic matter (AOM) released during oxidation. To remove the cyanobacteria and meanwhile ensure cell integrity, H2O2/Fe(II) and H2O2/Fe(III), which have been widely used to degrade organic pollutants in waters, are proposed in this study. The removal efficiency of Microcystis aeruginosa (M. aeruginosa) under various oxidant/coagulant dosages, AOM release and cell integrity, as well as floc formation and morphology were investigated with these simultaneous oxidation/coagulation processes. The results show that the removal efficiency was higher than 95% with H2O2/Fe(II) and H2O2/Fe(III) under 100 μmol/L H2O2 and Fe. In addition, neither method was found to damage the algal cells in 50-200 μmol/L H2O2 dosing concentrations.
