“…CIP is hardly biodegraded (Carabineiro et al, 2012), and in Italian rivers, CIP was observed at a concentration up to 60,1 ng/L (Grobin et al, 2022). Furthermore, in 2019, Zhang et al (2020) observed, that CIP level was higher in the wet season (3.453 ± 0.979 ng/L) than in the dry season (3.091 ± 0.824 ng/L) in the Yinma River in Northeast China. CIP was also observed at a mean value of 83 ng/L in summer and 3,120 ng/L in winter in hospital effluents located in Turkey (Aydin et al, 2019).…”

“…These bioactive compounds are used in both medicine and body personal care and the occurrence of PPCPs in aquatic environments has garnered great attention over the past 30 years (Schumock et al, 2014;Yang et al, 2017). PPCPs are classified as emerging contaminants due to their frequent detection in various water bodies at concentrations ranging from ng/L to µg/L (Dai et al, 2015;Yang et al, 2017;Zhang et al, 2020). Despite their high transformation rates, PPCPs are considered pseudo-persistent contaminants, since their degradation is balanced by a constant release into aquatic environments (Bottoni and Caroli, 2018).…”

“…Considering the widespread presence of antibiotics in aquatic ecosystems, it is crucial to assess the potential toxic effects of AMX, TMP, CIP, and antibiotics in general, to non-target aquatic organisms, such as marine invertebrates, whose chronic exposure to these compounds can cause detrimental effects (Kostich et al, 2014;Matozzo, 2014;Fabbri, 2015;Yang et al, 2017;Zhang et al, 2020). The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effects of the three antibiotics, both alone and as a mixture, on in vitroexposed haemocytes of the Manila clam Ruditapes philippinarum, one of the major fishery and aquaculture species in the world, widely used in ecotoxicological studies (Matozzo and Marin, 2010;Liu et al, 2011).…”

Although the presence of pharmaceutical and personal care products in aquatic ecosystems is well documented, little information is available about their sublethal effects, on aquatic invertebrates. From an ecotoxicological point of view, the use of in vitro approaches has been recommended as a tool to assess adverse effects and to understand the mechanisms of action of chemicals at the cellular level. In the present in vitro study, the effects of Amoxicillin (AMX), Trimethoprim (TMP) and Ciprofloxacin (CIP) (1 µg/L, each) were tested alone and—for the first time—as a mixture (MIX) on haemocytes of the clam Ruditapes philippinarum. After the exposure, a battery of cellular parameters was evaluated, such as haemocyte viability, lysosomal membrane stability, superoxide anion production, acid phosphatase activity, the frequency of micronuclei and chromosomal aberrations. The results demonstrated that AMX, TMP, CIP and MIX affected lysosomal membrane stability, as well as superoxide anion and acid phosphatase production, and promoted chromosomal aberrations. This study highlighted that Manila clam haemocytes are a sensitive cell model to assess the effects of exposure to pharmaceutical products on non-target species. Our study demonstrated that the effects of pharmaceutical mixtures on marine species should be experimentally evaluated because they are not predictable from single exposures as the compounds can interact in different ways on the various biological endpoints considered.

Treatment Trends and Combined Methods in Removing Pharmaceuticals and Personal Care Products from Wastewater—A Review

When discharged into wastewater, pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) become microorganic contaminants and are among the largest groups of emerging pollutants. Human, animal, and aquatic organisms’ exposures to PPCPs have linked them to an array of carcinogenic, mutagenic, and reproductive toxicity risks. For this reason, various methods are being implemented to remove them from water bodies. This report critically reviews these methods and suggests improvements to removal strategies. Biological, physical, and chemical methods such as biological degradation, adsorption, membrane filtration, and advanced electrical and chemical oxidation are the common methods used. However, these processes were not integrated into most studies to take advantage of the different mechanisms specific to each process and are synergistic in the removal of the PPCPs that differ in their physical and chemical characteristics (charge, molecular weight, hydrophobicity, hydrogen bonding, structure). In the review articles published to date, very little information is available on the use of such integrated methods for removing PPCPs. This report attempts to fill this gap with our knowledge.

The introduction of large amounts of pharmaceuticals into the environmental waters is well‐documented in literature with their occurrence reported in all different water matrices accessible to humans and animals. At the same time, the increasing consumption of coffee and tea‐based beverages results in the generation of solid waste, which is mostly disposed‐off in the environment. To minimize environmental pollution, coffee and tea‐based materials have been proposed as suitable options to remove pharmaceuticals in environmental waters. Therefore, this article provides a critical review on the preparation and applications of coffee and tea‐based materials in removing pharmaceuticals from contaminated water. In this context, most studies in literature focused on the applications of these materials as adsorbents, while only limited work on their role in degradation of pharmaceuticals is discussed. The successful application in adsorption studies is attributed to high surface areas of adsorbents and the ability to easily modify the adsorbent surfaces by incorporating functional groups that provide additional oxygen atoms, which promote easy interactions with pharmaceuticals. Hence, the adsorption mechanisms are mostly described by hydrogen bonding, electrostatic and π–π interactions with sample pH playing a dominant role in the adsorption process. Overall, the present article focused on the developments, trends and future research direction on the preparations and applications of coffee and tea‐based materials for efficient removal of pharmaceuticals in water. Practitioner Points Review of tea and coffee wastes application for removal of pharmaceuticals in water Key applications in adsorption and degradation of pharmaceuticals in water Removal mostly explained by hydrogen bonding, electrostatic, and π–π interactions Trends, gaps, and future research to be explored are reviewed and highlighted
