“…However, Fe-/Mn-ox data were largely absent from the compiled literature during data screening, precluding its inclusion in predictive modeling across all studies. Therefore, to develop a more robust and generalizable model using commonly reported parameters, soil pH and clay content were selected as the independent variables for the toxicity prediction equation [ 38 , 39 ]. Two equations were derived (for barley and wheat) by normalizing the limited toxicological data available from laboratory experiments and literature ( Table 2 ).…”

“…Several papers show the toxicity of organic pollutants [103,104], domestic effluents [105], hydrocarbons [106], solvents from biomass [25], and heavy metals [107] in terrestrial environments. However, no existing literature on terrestrial toxicity has been found.…”

Deep Eutectic Solvents: Are They Safe?

Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) are a relatively new type of solvent that have attracted the attention of the scientific community due to their environmentally friendly properties and their versatility in many applications. Many possible DESs have been described and, thus, it is not easy to unequivocally characterize and generalize their properties. This is especially important in the case of the (eco)toxicity information that can be found for these mixtures. In this review, we collect data on the human and environmental toxicity of DESs, with the aim of gathering and exploring the behavioral patterns of DESs. The toxicity data found were analyzed attending to different factors: hydrogen bond donors or acceptors that form part of the eutectic mixture, pH, and the presence of organic acids in the DES molar ratio of the components, or interactions with natural compounds. In the case of ecotoxicity, results generally depend on the biomodel studied, along with other factors that have been also revised. Finally, we also carried out a revision of the biodegradation of DESs.

“…Therefore, these differences should be fully considered in the formulation of risk assessment methods. Although some studies have established the relationship between toxic effects and soil physicochemical properties, and the relationship between toxic effects and bioavailable concentration, such research data are very limited [ 16 , 17 , 18 , 19 , 20 ]. The combined effects of different pollutants have been investigated and concentration addition (CA) and independent action (IA) models were applied in the risk assessment process [ 21 , 22 , 23 ].…”

Ecological risk assessment of combined polluted soil has been conducted mostly on the basis of the risk screening value (RSV) of a single pollutant. However, due to its defects, this method is not accurate enough. Not only were the effects of soil properties neglected, but the interactions among different pollutants were also overlooked. In this study, the ecological risks of 22 soils collected from four smelting sites were assessed by toxicity tests using soil invertebrates (Eisenia fetida, Folsomia candida, Caenorhabditis elegans) as subjects. Besides a risk assessment based on RSVs, a new method was developed and applied. A toxicity effect index (EI) was introduced to normalize the toxicity effects of different toxicity endpoints, rendering assessments comparable based on different toxicity endpoints. Additionally, an assessment method of ecological risk probability (RP), based on the cumulative probability distribution of EI, was established. Significant correlation was found between EI−based RP and the RSV−based Nemerow ecological risk index (NRI) (p < 0.05). In addition, the new method can visually present the probability distribution of different toxicity endpoints, which is conducive to aiding risk managers in establishing more reasonable risk management plans to protect key species. The new method is expected to be combined with a complex dose–effect relationship prediction model constructed by machine learning algorithm, providing a new method and idea for the ecological risk assessment of combined contaminated soil.
