“…These authors found that the mass of SMT retained increased as a function of the OC content of the soils, varying from 0.16 mg for a soil with 0.4% OC, to 0.19 mg for a soil with 2.9% OC. Similar results were obtained by Srinivasan and Sarmah [88] and by Conde-Cid et al [104], who confirmed that soils with a lower organic matter content gave rise to curves that were narrow and high in shape, indicating little retention, while soils richer in organic matter gave rise to more elongated and flat curves, characteristics of a higher retention. The descriptive parameters of the breakthrough curves confirm these observations.…”

“…The adsorption curves described for sulfonamides are C type, which is indicative of a constant distribution of antibiotics between the soil and the solution, suggesting that the adsorption of sulfonamides is independent of their concentration. Due to the linear nature of the curves, they are satisfactorily described by the K d parameter, and also by the Freundlich's K F parameter, as indicated by numerous authors for SDZ [84,85], for SMT [86][87][88], and for SCP [65,70,87,89].…”

“…These authors also found variations in the form of the curves for each of the soils, as well as in the delay in the exit of the maximum relative concentration (C/C 0 ) for the different sulfonamides. Moreover, Srinivasan and Sarmah [88] investigated the transport of sulfamethoxazole, SMT and SCP in two acid soils with different organic matter contents (2.1 and 4.0% OC), obtaining that the outflow of the three SAs was affected by a greater delay with respect to the inert tracer in the soil with a higher organic matter content. Finally, Kurwadkar et al [179] investigated the transport of seven SAs in different agricultural soils, at different pH values, obtaining that under acidic conditions, the SAs were practically immobile in soils with high OC and eCEC contents, while they were relatively mobile in the other soils, in a similar way to what was obtained by Conde-Cid et al [104].…”

Tetracycline and Sulfonamide Antibiotics in Soils: Presence, Fate and Environmental Risks

Veterinary antibiotics are widely used worldwide to treat and prevent infectious diseases, as well as (in countries where allowed) to promote growth and improve feeding efficiency of food-producing animals in livestock activities. Among the different antibiotic classes, tetracyclines and sulfonamides are two of the most used for veterinary proposals. Due to the fact that these compounds are poorly absorbed in the gut of animals, a significant proportion (up to ~90%) of them are excreted unchanged, thus reaching the environment mainly through the application of manures and slurries as fertilizers in agricultural fields. Once in the soil, antibiotics are subjected to a series of physicochemical and biological processes, which depend both on the antibiotic nature and soil characteristics. Adsorption/desorption to soil particles and degradation are the main processes that will affect the persistence, bioavailability, and environmental fate of these pollutants, thus determining their potential impacts and risks on human and ecological health. Taking all this into account, a literature review was conducted in order to shed light on the current knowledge about the occurrence of tetracycline and sulfonamide antibiotics in manures/slurries and agricultural soils, as well as on their fate in the environment. For that, the adsorption/desorption and the degradation (both abiotic and biotic) processes of these pollutants in soils were deeply discussed. Finally, the potential risks of deleterious effects on human and ecological health associated with the presence of these antibiotic residues were assessed. This review contributes to a deeper understanding of the lifecycle of tetracycline and sulfonamide antibiotics in the environment, thus facilitating decision-making for the application of preventive and mitigation measures to reduce its negative impacts and risks to public health.

“…Similarly, it was argued by Boxall et al [12] that SCP was highly mobile in clay sites; thus, would easily be transported to surface waters due to its low sorption potential, increasing the risk of surface water contamination. An experimental sorption modeling study undertaken by Srinivasan and Sarmah [47], indicated low K oc (s) values for the sulphonamide group in general, and concluded that sulphonamides were likely to have high mobility that makes them a potential threat to surface and ground water. Measured antibiotic concentrations in the analyzed soil samples (MEC soil ), and predicted values of concentrations leaching from manure to soil (PEC soil ) calculated by using the model algorithms, are compared in Fig.…”

Veterinary antibiotics have widely been used for promoting animal health, especially in the last few decades. As a result of application of manure on agricultural lands, leaching of antibiotics from manure to soil and antibiotic transport via runoff may cause both soil and water quality degradation. Moreover, an increased antibiotic concentration in soil stimulates the development of antibiotic resistant bacteria in the environment. The aim of this study was to develop environmental risk maps for the Marmara Region by taking into account the antibiotic transport from the pasture lands. By using geographical information systems, the region was divided into manageable modelling units according to different topographical and hydrodynamic characteristics. A storm water management model was applied for runoff prediction. The transport of previously analyzed antibiotics in the region was determined by using an exposure model developed by the National Institute of Public Health and the Environment, the Netherlands. The environmental risk of antibiotics was mapped by undertaking a multi‐criteria decision analysis approach for all pasture lands. The risk maps showed that the potential risk of antibiotic transport from pasture lands is moderate across the Marmara Region, however, a high level of risk prevailed in some areas, particularly in Balıkesir.

“…The physiochemical properties of SMZ indicate a weak sorption behavior and it is very water soluble and mobile in soil. Due to this mobility, SMZ has the potential to move deep into the soil profile and leaching has been demonstrated in several studies (Srinivasan andSarmah, 2014: Unold et al, 2009). The lack of SMZ detection could be related to the low concentrations of SMZ in the swine manure.…”

This dissertation is dedicated to my family, specifically to my grandfather who is still watching over me today. From a sixth-grade education, to working on the railroad for 40 plus years, providing for the entire family, and sending mommy to college. You were the epitome of what a man should be. You always told me to get my lesson done, and I thank you for emphasizing the importance of education. This is for you! Thank you for all your sacrifices, I miss you.
