Diuron [DU; 3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-1,1-dimethylurea],
a widely
used herbicide for weed control, arouses ecological and health risks
due to its environment persistence. Our findings revealed that DU
at 0.125–2.0 mg L–1 caused oxidative damage
to rice. RNA-sequencing profiles disclosed a globally genetic expression
landscape of rice under DU treatment. DU mediated downregulated gene
encoding photosynthesis and biosynthesis of protein, fatty acid, and
carbohydrate. Conversely, it induced the upregulation of numerous
genes involved in xenobiotic metabolism, detoxification, and anti-oxidation.
Furthermore, 15 DU metabolites produced by metabolic genes were identified,
7 of which include two Phase I-based and 5 Phase II-based derivatives,
were reported for the first time. The changes of resistance-related
phytohormones, like JA, ABA, and SA, in terms of their contents and
molecular-regulated signaling pathways positively responded to DU
stress. Our work provides a molecular-scale perspective on the response
of rice to DU toxicity and clarifies the biotransformation and degradation
fate of DU in rice crops.
The Nd III coordination compounds [Nd(4-pytza) 3 (H 2 O) 2 ]· 2H 2 O (1) and [Nd(4-pytza) 2 (H 2 O) 4 ]Cl·2H 2 O (2) [H4-pytza = 5-(4-pyridyl)tetrazole-2-acetic acid] were synthesized by reactions of K4-pytza and NdCl 3 ·6H 2 O at different pH values. Single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis reveals that 4-pytza ligands in 1 in a μ 1,3 -COO syn-syn or μ 1,1,3 -COO bridging mode coordinate to two central Nd III atoms to
Organophosphorus magnetic molecularly imprinted polymers
(OMMIPs)
with high adsorption capacities (13.5–83.8 mg g–1) and good applicability were developed for efficient extraction
and pre-concentration of multiple organophosphorus pesticides (OPPs)
from foodstuffs. The OMMIP-based sample pretreatment coupled with
low-temperature plasma ambient ionization mass spectrometry achieved
rapid screening for 90 kinds of pesticides at default maximum residue
limits of National Standard (GB 2763-2021) in nine types of agro-products.
The OMMIP-based liquid chromatography coupled with triple quadrupole
mass spectroscopy assay demonstrated rapid magneto-actuated isolation,
efficient removal of matrix interference, and reduced signal suppression,
resulting in a short detection time (30 min), compliant recoveries
(60.1–127.5%), low detection limits (0.0001–0.073 μg
g–1), and simultaneous quantification of multi-pesticides.
The yolk–shell-structured OMMIPs (Fe3O4@mTiO2@MIPs) demonstrated additional benefits of excellent
ultraviolet light-driven catalytic degradation activity toward OPPs,
making them eco-friendly for self-cleaning regeneration and reducing
laboratory pesticide discharge. This work highlights the potential
of OMMIPs for high-throughput and in situ pesticide monitoring in
modern large-scale agricultural markets.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
