“…In addition, our results suggest that omnivorous species can accumulate POPs to a higher extent compared with carnivorous. Similar outcomes were previously found in several studies on terrestrial animals, where carnivorous and omnivorous animals showed a higher tendency to accumulate POPs than herbivores (Bentzen et al, 2008;Braune et al, 1999;Christensen et al, 2005;Hoshi et al, 1998;Mateo et al, 2012;Polder et al, 2009;Tomza-Marciniak et al, 2014, (Herceg Romanić et al, 2015). Since wild cats feed at the top of the food chain, they are prone to store high amounts of pollutants in their bodies and therefore being more sensitive to their potential advers effects (Ali et al, 2013).…”

“…En osos pardos y lobos grises en Croacia se identificaron en tejido adiposo, residuos de organoclorados de hexaclorobenceno (HCB), isómeros del hexaclorociclohexano (a-, by c-HCH), 1,1-dicloro-2,2-di (4-clorofenil) etileno (DDE), 1,1-dicloro-2,2-di (4-clorofenil) etano (DDD) y 1,1,1-tricloro-2,2-di (4-clorofenil) etano (DDT). Las concentraciones variaron entre 0.45 a 4.09 ng/g en osos y de 1.18 a 5.67 ng/g en lobos, estas concentraciones se consideraron bajas y que no representaban un peligro para las especies estudiadas, al contrario, a la concentración del insecticida organoclorado endosulfán que se detectó en las muestras de suelo analizadas de 0.1 mg/g las cuales son mucho mayores (Romanić et al, 2015). Se ha comprobado que los plaguicidas pueden transportarse hasta sitios distintos a los que se aplican, llegando incluso a lugares más altos como montañas, bioacumulándose en pequeños mamíferos que se encuentran presentes.…”

RESUMENEl perrito de la pradera (Cynomys mexicanus) es un roedor endémico de los pastizales del Norte de México, considerada una especie clave para el mantenimiento de su ecosistema. La principal problemática a la que enfrenta es el aumento de la frontera agrícola, por lo que se encuentra en constante exposición a productos químicos utilizados en zonas de cultivo cercanas, como los plaguicidas. El objetivo de este estudio fue detectar y cuantificar residuos de plaguicidas en muestras de suelo de colonias de C. mexicanus de los estados de Zacatecas y San Luis Potosí. Se analizaron un total de 5 muestras de suelo y se analizaron por medio de la técnica de Cromatografía Líquida de Alta Eficiencia (HPLC). Se detectaron ocho plaguicidas presentes en el 100% de las muestras analizadas, de los cuales el glifosato y el metamidofos tuvieron concentraciones mayores, de hasta 5.5 mg/g y 4.8 mg/g respectivamente. Los resultados muestran que en el suelo se encuentran altas concentraciones de los plaguicidas mencionados comparadas con las detectadas en otros estudios y mayores a la DL5O establecida para ambos. Por lo que el suelo es una fuente de exposición importante y medio para la entrada hacia el organismo de C. mexicanus. Palabras clave: suelo, plaguicidas, Cynomys mexicanus, cromatografía líquida de alta eficiencia, glifosato.

“…Insecticides are among the most influential xenobiotics that have harmful effects on animals. Several negative effects on wild mammals of persistent and highly toxic insecticides such as organochlorines and organophosphates have been reported in the past (Blus, 2011; Grue et al, 1997; Kwon et al, 2004; Herceg Romani et al, 2015). However, the use of such compounds has decreased (Van Den Berg et al, 2017).…”

Toxicological effects of neonicotinoid insecticides (NNIs) have been reported for mammals, such as humans, rats, and mice. However, there are limited reports on their toxic effects on wild mammals. To predict NNI‐induced toxic effects on wild mammals, it is necessary to determine the exposure levels and metabolic ability of these species. We considered that raccoons could be an animal model for evaluating NNI‐induced toxicities on wildlife because they live near agricultural fields and eat crops treated with NNIs. The objective of the present study was to estimate the effects of NNI exposure on wild raccoons. Urinary concentrations of NNI compounds (n = 59) and cytochrome P450‐dependent metabolism of NNIs (n = 3) were evaluated in wild raccoons captured in Hokkaido, Japan, in 2020. We detected either one of the six NNIs or one metabolite, including acetamiprid, imidacloprid, clothianidin, dinotefuran, thiacloprid, thiamethoxam, and desmethyl‐acetamiprid in 90% of raccoons (53/59); the average cumulative concentration of the seven NNI compounds was 3.1 ng/ml. The urinary concentrations were not much different from those reported previously for humans. Furthermore, we performed an in vitro assessment of the ability of raccoons to metabolize NNIs using hepatic microsomes. The amounts of NNI metabolites were measured using liquid chromatography–electrospray ionization–tandem mass spectrometry and compared with those in rats. Raccoons showed much lower metabolic ability; the maximum velocity/Michaelis–Menten constant (Vmax/Km) values for raccoons were one‐tenth to one‐third of those for rats. For the first time, we show that wild raccoons could be frequently exposed to NNIs in the environment, and that the cytochrome P450‐dependent metabolism of NNIs in the livers of raccoons might be low. Our results contribute to a better understanding of the effects of NNIs on raccoons, leading to better conservation efforts for wild mammals.
