Palabras Clave: patrón de uso, exposición laboral, ecosistemas, contaminación, agricultura RESUMENEl presente trabajo analiza la investigación que se ha llevado a cabo en México con relación al uso y efecto de los plaguicidas en el ambiente y salud humana. Se revisaron 394 artículos publicados en los últimos 20 años en revistas indizadas o arbitradas. Las publicaciones se agruparon en 7 temas principales: 1) patrón de uso de plaguicidas, 2) efectos en el ambiente; 3) estudios ecotoxicológicos; 4) exposición en población humana; 5) residuos en alimentos; 6) toxicología de plaguicidas (estudios in vitro e in vivo); y 7) bioplaguicidas y biorremediación. El análisis de estas investigaciones indican que actualmente se utilizan Plaguicidas Altamente Peligrosos (PAPs) en las zonas agrícolas del país, su uso histórico y actual se relaciona con efectos negativos en ecosistemas terrestres y costeros, se han reportado efectos en la salud de los trabajadores agrícolas y sus familias, tales como alteraciones hematológicas, hormonales, daños genéticos, alteraciones del comportamiento y daños celulares; los niños constituyen el grupo más vulnerable a la exposición, además se han documentado daños genéticos, reproductivos y neuronales en modelos celulares y en organismos de laboratorio y se reportan residuos en alimentos como leche, hortalizas y granos. Como medidas de mitigación, se documentan procesos de biorremediación de suelos y agua contaminada,
During the last decade, organic acids (OA) and their salts have been used as additives in aquafeed to increased nutritional values due their participation in some metabolic pathways and energy generation in organisms. Benzoic acid (BA) is one of the most used for its properties as a fungal growth inhibitor. It is used as a preserver in a wide variety of human consumption products included wine. Additionally, is also demonstrates health and growth benefits when its included in chickens, turkeys, cattle, and pig diets by modifying the energy metabolism and the microbiota and intestinal tract morphology. There is scarce information of BA inclusion in aquafeed and is non-existent in white shrimp, P. vannamei. This study evaluated the effects on growth, survival, feed conversion rate (FCR), energy content, and health status, through lipid quantification in hepatopancreas, histological analysis, and saline stress tests of white shrimp juveniles (Penaeus vannamei) by including BA at different concentrations (C0:0, C1:1.0, C2:1.5, and C3:2 g kg− 1) in a commercial feed. Increased BA inclusion presented significant differences (p ˂ 0.05) in the hepatosomatic index (Initial: 4.51 ± 0.65, C0: 4.01 ± 0.92, C1: 3.44 ± 1.68, C2: 2.37 ± 0.84, C3: 3.18 ± 1.60), hepatopancreas lipid content (Initial: 402.02 ± 48.76, C0: 293.48 ± 22.30, C1: 229.15 ± 11.46, C2: 136.69 ± 20.50, C3; 88.44 ± 6.19 mg g− 1) and histopathological damage in all BA concentrations. The lowest survival was 94.44% in C1. The FCR is within the ranges registered by the FAO except for that obtained in the C0. Calorimetric analysis and BA detection in muscle revealed no significant differences between concentrations. Due to the results obtained, the evaluated inclusions of BA in juvenile white shrimp (P. vannamei) diets are not recommended.
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.
