“…Conversely, Pierattini et al ( 2018 ) observed no differences in leaves number, shoot length, and fresh or dry weight of poplar plants ( Populus alba , L. Villafranca clone) exposed to 0 and 1 mg L −1 of DCF in hydroponic solution. Similarly, Podio et al ( 2020 ) did not found differences in phenotypes of chicory plants exposed to 0 and 1 mg DCF L −1 during seed germination and early growth stages, but found a negative effect of DCF on the concentration of photosynthetic pigments and an activation of the plant detoxification system. Other authors reported induction of other enzymes following DCF exposure (i.e., catalase, glycosyltransferase and glutathione S-transferase) (Bartha et al 2014 ; Huber et al 2016 ; Majewska et al 2018 ; Pierattini et al 2018 ).…”

“…Previous studies have shown reduced plant growth due to DCF exposure (e.g., Ziółkowska et al 2014 ; Schmidt and Redshaw 2015 ; Podio et al 2020 ). Shortening of root and shoot lengths was detected on three legume plants (pea, lupin, and lentil) when the DCF concentration increased from 17.8 to 3560 mg L −1 and the negative effect increased with the increase of the DCF dose (Ziółkowska et al 2014 ).…”

Bioremediation of pharmaceuticals has gained large research efforts, but there is still a need to improve the performance of bioremediation systems by selecting effective organisms. In this study, we characterized the capability to remove clarithromycin (CLA) and diclofenac (DCF) by the bacterium Streptomyces rochei, and the fungi Phanerochaete chrysosporium and Trametes versicolor. The macrolide antibiotic CLA and the non-steroid anti-inflammatory DCF were selected because these are two of the most frequently detected drugs in water bodies. Growth and content of the PhCs and a DCF metabolite (MET) by the energy crop Arundo donax L. were also evaluated under hydroponic conditions. The removal rate (RR) by S. rochei increased from 24 to 40% at 10 and 100 µg CLA L−1, respectively, averaged over incubation times. At 144 h, the RR by P. chrysosporium was 84%, while by T. versicolor was 70 and 45% at 10 and 100 CLA µg L−1. The RR by S. rochei did not exceed 30% at 1 mg DCF L−1 and reached 60% at 10 mg DCF L−1, whereas approached 95% and 63% by P. chrysosporium and T. versicolor, respectively, at both doses. Root biomass and length of A. donax were strongly affected at 100 µg CLA L−1. CLA concentration in roots and shoots increased with the increase of the dose and translocation factor (TF) was about 1. DCF severely affected both shoot fresh weight and root length at the highest dose and concentration in roots and shoots increased with the increase of the dose. DCF concentrations were 16–19 times higher in roots than in shoots, and TF was about 0.1. MET was detected only in roots and its proportion over the parent compound decreased with the increase of the DCF dose. This study highlights the potential contribution of A. donax and the tested microbial inoculants for improving the effectiveness of bioremediation systems for CLA and DCF removal.

“…In addition to the occurrence of antibiotic and antibiotic resistance elements in different part of crops, possible phytotoxic effects on plants have been also studied (Marsoni et al 2014;Hurtado et al 2017;Podio et al 2020). Plants irrigated with TWW uptake these and other pollutants through the roots and they become transported to different plant tissues, where they undergo diverse modification by the active plant metabolism (Hurtado et al 2017).…”

The reuse of treated wastewater (TWW) has been considered a suitable alternative for agriculture and for achieving water security and management. However, this practice may contribute to the dissemination of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) into the environment, a matter of global concern. The aim of this study is to discuss the reuse of TWW in agriculture under the perspective of the risks associated to ARGs dissemination. An exhaustive bibliographic research was conducted for determining the capacity of reducing ARG loads for different wastewater treatment technologies (conventional, non-conventional and advanced technologies). Moreover, the distribution of ARG elements in crops irrigated with TWW was also reviewed for discussing the potential health risks associated to the TWW reuse. Reduction of ARG loads in conventional, non-conventional and advanced treatments fluctuated between 1.1 and 4.1, 0.1-2.1 and 0.1-9.5 log units, respectively. These variable ranges indicate that operational parameters, plant design, and water quality are fundamental parameters determining their performance and their capacity to reduce ARG dissemination. In the case of ARG distribution in crops and soil irrigated by TWW, higher abundances were observed in soil than edible parts of crops with ranges between (-0.7)-6.0 log copies/g of soil and (-0.9)-5.6 log copies/g of soil, respectively. The occurrence of ARGs in crops may represent a relevant human exposure to ARG-harbouring bacteria and therefore, a potential human health risk that requires the establishment of safe procedures and legislation for assuring a safe reuse of TWW.

“…The results attained from different studies are summarized in Table . Despite the toxic effects presented in Table and decreased root biomass in chicory (Cichorium intybus), irrigation with water containing 1000 μg L –1 diclofenac resulted in no threat to human health due to no translocation into leaves . Toxicity has been observed to be plant specific. , For example, one study found diclofenac to be more toxic in tomato than in maize .…”

The plant uptake of pharmaceuticals that include nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and analgesics from contaminated environment has benefits and drawbacks. These pharmaceuticals enter plants mostly through irrigation with contaminated water and application of sewage sludge as soil fertilizer. Aquatic plants withdraw these pharmaceuticals from water through their roots. Numerous studies have observed the translocation of these pharmaceuticals from the roots into the aerial tissues. Furthermore, the occurrence of the metabolites of NSAIDs in plants has been observed. This article provides an in-depth critical review of the plant uptake of NSAIDs and analgesics, their translocation, and toxic effects on plant species. In addition, the occurrence of metabolites of NSAIDs in plants and the application of constructed wetlands using plants for remediation are reviewed. Factors that affect the plant uptake and translocation of these pharmaceuticals are examined. Gaps and future research are provided to guide forthcoming investigations on important aspects that worth explorations.
