Biodegradation and removal of pharmaceuticals and personal care products in treatment systems: a review 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) have been the focus of much recent research as concerns rise about their
occurrence in bodies of water worldwide. In an effort to characterize the risk and determine the prevalence of these micropollutants
in lakes and rivers, many researchers are examining PPCP removal from impaired water during wastewater treatment and water
recycling (soil passage) processes. Biodegradation studies and projects considering combinations of biodegradation and other
removal processes have been conducted over a wide range of compound categories and therapeutic classes, as well as across
different systems and scales of study. This review summarizes the extent of PPCP removal observed in these various systems. 相似文献

More than hundred pharmaceuticals, drugs of abuse or doping agents have been reported to be detectable in human hair. This article reviews the analysis of 90 drugs and drug metabolites by chromatographic procedures, including the pretreatment steps, the extraction methods, the reported limits of detection and the measured concentrations in real human hair samples. Some progress is observed in the detection of low dose drugs, like fentanyl or flunitrazepam. The general tendency in the last years, to highly sophisticated techniques (GC–MS–NCI, HPLC–MS, GC–MS–MS) illustrates well this constant fight for sensitivity. Some new findings, based on the recent experience of the authors, are also added. 相似文献

The following study set out to test the hypothesis that acute treatment with the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor, fluoxetine, would result in a rise in circulating 5-HT levels and consequently a decrease in territorial aggression in the Gulf toadfish, Opsanus beta. Size-matched pairs of toadfish were implanted intraperitoneally with the same dose of fluoxetine (0, 10 or 25 μg g− 1). After a social interaction between a pair of fish, circulating levels of serotonin (5-HT; 5-hydroxytryptamine) and cortisol were measured and relative mRNA expression of the 5-HT1A receptor in the toadfish brain was determined using quantitative (real-time) PCR (qPCR). Behavioral endpoints such as the number of aggressive acts and swimming activity were also quantified so that dominant and subordinate fish could be identified. Fluoxetine treatment resulted in an increase in circulating levels of 5-HT, regardless of social status. Circulating cortisol concentrations were unaffected by fluoxetine, but were significantly higher in subordinate individuals when compared to dominant fish. Toadfish brain 5-HT1A receptor mRNA expression was not affected by treatment or social status. Lastly and contrary to our predictions, fluoxetine treatment resulted in an increase in the number of aggressive acts made by dominant individuals, with no differences in the level of aggression or swimming activity of subordinate fish. This study is the first to describe elevated aggression in a teleost fish with elevated circulating levels of 5-HT. 相似文献

Distearoylphosphatidylcholine (DSPC)/cholesterol/distearoylphosphatidylethanolamine (DSPE)–polyethylene glycol 5000 [PEG(5000)] lipid disks, mimicking biological membranes, were used as pseudostationary phase in partial filling electrokinetic capillary chromatography (EKC) to study interactions between pharmaceuticals and lipid disks. Capillaries were coated either noncovalently with a poly(1-vinylpyrrolidone)-based copolymer or covalently with polyacrylamide to mask the negative charges of the fused-silica capillary wall and to minimize interactions between positively charged pharmaceuticals and capillary wall. Although the noncovalent copolymer coating method was faster, better stability of the covalent polyacrylamide coating at physiological pH 7.4 made it more reliable in partial filling EKC studies. Migration times of pharmaceuticals were proportional to the amount of lipids in the pseudostationary phase, and partition coefficients were successfully determined. Because the capillary coatings almost totally suppressed the electroosmotic flow, it was not practical to use the EKC-based method for partition studies involving large molecules with low mobilities. Hence, the applicability of the biomembrane mimicking lipid disks for interactions studies with large molecules was verified by the quartz crystal microbalance technique. Biotinylated lipid disks were then immobilized on streptavidin-coated sensor chip surface, and interactions with a high-molecular-mass molecule, lysozyme, were studied. Cryo-transmission electron microscopy and asymmetrical flow field-flow fractionation were used to clarify the sizes of lipid disks used. 相似文献

A multiplex PCR assay was devised and compared with standard conventional methods for quality evaluation of pharmaceutical raw materials and finished products with low levels of microbial contamination. Samples which were artificially contaminated with <10 colony forming units of Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Salmonella species and possibly contaminated samples were incubated for 16 h with different enrichment media. Primers that deduce 559 bp fragment of the 16S rRNA gene was employed in amplifying E. coli species, similarly invasion protein gene with 275 bp fragment size was used as target for detecting Salmonella spp., in case of S. aureus a 461 bp amplicon from m-RNA nuclease gene, and an 709 bp fragment from oprL gene was used for amplifying P. aeruginosa. The detection limits for artificially contaminants by multiplex PCR was 1 CFU/g, where as in case of conventional method the detection limit was >2 CFU/g. Similarly, when tested with possibly contaminated samples, 35% were detected for E. coli, Salmonella spp., S. aureus and P. aeruginosa species with multiplex PCR, while only 21% were detected with standard conventional microbial methods. Multiplex PCR assay provides sensitive and reliable results and allows for the cost-effective detection of all four bacterial pathogens in single reaction tube. 相似文献

A strain of Comamonas testosteroni JA1 known for its capacity to hydroxylate 3‐cyanopyridine to 3‐cyano‐6‐hydroxypyridine was found to be also capable to hydroxylate nicotinic acid at a higher rate. In the course of the induced cultivation the forming 6‐hydroxynicotinic acid was degraded either slightly, in the presence of nicotinic acid in the medium, or faster, in the absence of nicotinic acid. In a combined process of hydroxylation of nicotinic acid by growing culture and hydroxylation of 3‐cyanopyridine by resting cells of Comamonas testosteroni JA1, not only an additional amount of 50.38 g of solid 6‐hydroxynicotinic acid was produced from 1 L of cultivation broth with a 99.97 % molar conversion yield, but also the yield of 3‐cyano‐6‐hydroxypyridine produced was more than doubled. This can be compared to that of the resting cells from the induced cultivation broth where within 8 h an amount of 5.77 g of solid 3‐cyano‐6‐hydroxypyridine was produced by resting cells from 1 L of the cultivation broth. This also was superior to 4.39 g/L of cultivation broth of resting cells reported in the literature. 相似文献

A simple and sensitive spectrophotometric method for the determination of tryptophan (TRP) is described. The method is based on the coupling reaction of tryptophan with diazotized p-phenylenediamine dihydrochloride (PPDD) in sulfuric acid medium to give the colored product having an absorption maximum at 520 nm. The coupled product was stable for 2h. Beer's law is obeyed in the tryptophan concentration range of 0.25-11 microg/ml. The method is applied for the analysis of pharmaceutical preparations of tryptophan and also in protein samples for tryptophan. Common excipients used as additives in pharmaceutical preparations do not interfere in the proposed method and the significant feature of the method is that most of the amino acids do not interfere in the determination of tryptophan. 相似文献

Novel coupling reagents are used for the simple and sensitive spectrophotometric determination of folic acid either in pure form or in its pharmaceutical preparations. The methods are based on the probable diazotization of the p-aminobenzoylglutamic acid obtained after reductive clevage of folic acid, followed by either coupling with iminodibenzyl to give a violet product with lambda(max) of 580nm or coupling with 3-aminophenol to produce an orange yellow-colored product with lambda(max) of 460nm. Sodium molybdate and pyrocatechol are used in the third method and the pale red-colored product formed has a lambda(max) of 490nm. The methods are highly reproducible and have been applied to the determination of folic acid in tablets and the results compare favorably with the official method. Common excipients used as additives in pharmaceutical preparations do not interfere in the proposed methods. 相似文献
