“…Due to their high persistence and extensive use, DUR residues are frequently found in water, soil, and sediments ( Field et al, 2003 ; Giacomazzi and Cochet, 2004 ; Tandon and Pant, 2019 ). The highest concentration of DUR in sediment samples in the Brazilian Amazon region was 55.2 μg/kg ( Viana et al, 2019 ). In Costa Rica river basins, the highest DUR concentration in water and sediment samples were 22.8 μg/L and 11.75 μg/kg, respectively ( Carazo-Rojas et al, 2018 ).…”

“…In Costa Rica river basins, the highest DUR concentrations in water and sediment samples were 22.8 μg/L and 11.75 μg/kg, respectively. Many studies have indicated that the risk is unacceptable even under a conservative scenario and suggested a high degree of acute toxicity to the ecosystem ( Carazo-Rojas et al, 2018 ; Viana et al, 2019 ). In the Galápagos Islands, one of the last frontiers for conducting ecotoxicology research (UNESCO World Heritage region), the concentration of DUR (1.61 μg/L) between the two islands was the highest in samples from coastal waters in urban areas.…”

Diuron (DUR) is a phenylurea herbicide widely used for the effective control of most annual and perennial weeds in farming areas. The extensive use of DUR has led to its widespread presence in soil, sediment, and aquatic environments, which poses a threat to non-target crops, animals, humans, and ecosystems. Therefore, the removal of DUR from contaminated environments has been a hot topic for researchers in recent decades. Bioremediation seldom leaves harmful intermediate metabolites and is emerging as the most effective and eco-friendly strategy for removing DUR from the environment. Microorganisms, such as bacteria, fungi, and actinomycetes, can use DUR as their sole source of carbon. Some of them have been isolated, including organisms from the bacterial genera Arthrobacter, Bacillus, Vagococcus, Burkholderia, Micrococcus, Stenotrophomonas, and Pseudomonas and fungal genera Aspergillus, Pycnoporus, Pluteus, Trametes, Neurospora, Cunninghamella, and Mortierella. A number of studies have investigated the toxicity and fate of DUR, its degradation pathways and metabolites, and DUR-degrading hydrolases and related genes. However, few reviews have focused on the microbial degradation and biochemical mechanisms of DUR. The common microbial degradation pathway for DUR is via transformation to 3,4-dichloroaniline, which is then metabolized through two different metabolic pathways: dehalogenation and hydroxylation, the products of which are further degraded via cooperative metabolism. Microbial degradation hydrolases, including PuhA, PuhB, LibA, HylA, Phh, Mhh, and LahB, provide new knowledge about the underlying pathways governing DUR metabolism. The present review summarizes the state-of-the-art knowledge regarding (1) the environmental occurrence and toxicity of DUR, (2) newly isolated and identified DUR-degrading microbes and their enzymes/genes, and (3) the bioremediation of DUR in soil and water environments. This review further updates the recent knowledge on bioremediation strategies with a focus on the metabolic pathways and molecular mechanisms involved in the bioremediation of DUR.

“…ABBs have been studied in many countries, including Spain [9][10][11][12][13][14], Brazil [15][16][17][18], Japan [19][20][21], China [22], Thailand [23], France [24], Korea [25,26], Greece [27,28], Sweden [29], United Kingdom (UK) [30], Vietnam [31], Southern England [32], Italy [33,34], Panama [35], the United States of America (U.S.A) [36], the Netherlands [37], and Iran [38], largely occurring in marinas with a large flow of vessels and poor maintenance system disposal. Therefore, the presence of these biocides in the marine ecosystem is increasing in terms of both frequency and concentration levels, as confirmed by analyses of sediments [11,14,31,[39][40][41], water (including dissolved and particulate fractions) [9,13,20,35,[42][43][44] and, less commonly, biota samples [20,[45]...…”

We investigated the occurrence and the environmental risk of eight contaminants of emerging concern (CECs; acetaminophen, naproxen, diclofenac, methylparaben, 17β‐estradiol, sulfathiazole, sulfadimethoxine, and sulfamethazine) in three Brazilian water bodies, namely, the Monjolinho River Basin (São Paulo State), the Mogi Guaçu River (São Paulo State), and the Itapecuru River (Maranhão State) in three sampling campaigns. The CECs were only quantified in surface water samples collected at the Monjolinho River Basin. Acetaminophen, naproxen, and methylparaben were detected in the range of <200 to 575.9 ng L−1, <200 to 224.7 ng L−1, and <200 to 303.6 ng L−1, respectively. The detection frequencies of the three measured compounds were between 33% and 67%. The highest concentrations of CECs were associated with intense urbanization and untreated sewage discharge. Furthermore, CEC concentrations were significantly correlated with total organic carbon, electrical conductivity, and dissolved oxygen levels, suggesting that domestic pollution from urban areas is an important source in the distribution of CECs in the Monjolinho River Basin. The environmental risk assessment indicated a high risk for acetaminophen (risk quotient [RQ] values between 2.1 and 5.8), a medium risk for naproxen (RQs between 0.6 and 0.7), and a low risk for methylparaben (RQs < 0.1) to the freshwater biota of the Monjolinho River Basin. Our findings show potential threats of CECs in Brazilian water bodies, especially in vulnerable areas, and reinforce the need for improvements in environmental regulations to include monitoring and control of these compounds in aquatic systems.
