“…Pesticides may have unintended harmful impacts on humans, non-target creatures, and the environment (surface, soils, and groundwater), as the products are designed to be poisonous and are intentionally discharged into the environment ( Kamal et al, 2020 ). Pesticide hazard is a function of the pesticide’s (eco) toxicological qualities and the pesticide’s ability to harm humans, flora, and animals ( Müller et al, 2014 ). In modern farming systems, pesticides have become an important part of the process.…”

Role of Insect Gut Microbiota in Pesticide Degradation: A Review

Insect pests cause significant agricultural and economic losses to crops worldwide due to their destructive activities. Pesticides are designed to be poisonous and are intentionally released into the environment to combat the menace caused by these noxious pests. To survive, these insects can resist toxic substances introduced by humans in the form of pesticides. According to recent findings, microbes that live in insect as symbionts have recently been found to protect their hosts against toxins. Symbioses that have been formed are between the pests and various microbes, a defensive mechanism against pathogens and pesticides. Insects’ guts provide unique conditions for microbial colonization, and resident bacteria can deliver numerous benefits to their hosts. Insects vary significantly in their reliance on gut microbes for basic functions. Insect digestive tracts are very different in shape and chemical properties, which have a big impact on the structure and composition of the microbial community. Insect gut microbiota has been found to contribute to feeding, parasite and pathogen protection, immune response modulation, and pesticide breakdown. The current review will examine the roles of gut microbiota in pesticide detoxification and the mechanisms behind the development of resistance in insects to various pesticides. To better understand the detoxifying microbiota in agriculturally significant pest insects, we provided comprehensive information regarding the role of gut microbiota in the detoxification of pesticides.

“…Terahertz (THz) spectroscopy with a frequency band ranging from 0.1 to 10 THz (30 μm−3 mm) is a type of electromagnetic radiation that locates between the microwave and infrared regions. Compared to other electromagnetic spectroscopy, THz spectroscopy has unique properties of high penetration, low ionization energy, and fingerprint characteristics [6,7]. Due to its superiority, THz spectroscopy has been used as an analysis tool in many fields such as environmental detection [8], food analysis [9], and biomedical diagnosis [10,11].…”

The use of pesticides will have an impact on food, organisms, and environment. Specifically, pesticide residues in food will damage human health. Because of its high permeability, low energy, high spectral resolution, and fingerprint characteristics, terahertz frequency-domain spectroscopy has been introduced into the determination of pesticides (imidacloprid, acetamiprid, and triadimefon) residues in food samples (glutinous rice flour, wheat flour, and corn flour) in our present study. These three pesticides exhibit their own absorption peaks in the region of 0.4–1.7 THz. For understanding the origins of these peaks, the experimental data are interpreted by using density functional theory calculations at the level of B3LYP/6-31G (d). It is found that these absorption peaks come from the intramolecular and intermolecular interactions. The absorption peaks of pesticides are still detectable in a mixture of pesticides and food samples when they reach a certain concentration. The results from chemometrics analysis show that quantitative detection of pesticides in food samples is feasible. The partial least squares regression models have high correlation coefficient (>0.99), low root-mean-square error of calibration (<1.5%), low root-mean-square error of cross-validation (<2.4%), and low root-mean-square error of prediction (<2.3%), indicating good quality of prediction for pesticides concentration. Our results prove that the terahertz frequency-domain spectrum combined with chemometrics can be used for the detection of pesticides in food samples.

“…Approximately 130 chemical compounds are used for this purpose as selective herbicides. Additionally, approximately 30 other chemical compounds are used as non-selective herbicides (Müller et al, 2014). Glyphosate [N-(phosphonomethyl)glycine] is the most widely used non-selective herbicide worldwide, and successfully combats a wide range of mono-and dicotyledonous weed species, both annual and perennial.…”

SummaryThe effective dose of six herbicidal ionic liquids containing glyphosate [N-(phosphonomethyl)glycine] was investigated. Varied biological activity of the tested compounds was observed depending on the type of cation and targeted plant species. In the case of common lambsquarters, the lowest effective dose was obtained for compounds containing didecyldimethylammonium and di(hydrogenated tallow)dimethylammonium cations. In the case of white mustard, the lowest ED50 and ED90 values were obtained for the reference compound, which contained glyphosate isopropylamine salt. These parameters were determined using dose efficiency curves based on log-logistic models with three or four parameters. The study indicates that ionic liquids with glyphosate may be used as a new form of this herbicide in the future.
