Indice biológico de lodos como bioindicador en dos sistemas de tratamiento de agua residual hospitalaria en Costa Rica

Loría Naranjo, M., Beita-Sandí, W., 2024. Índice biológico de lodos como bioindicador en dos sistemas de tratamiento de agua residual hospitalaria en Costa Rica. UNED Research Journal 16, e5334. https://doi.org/10.22458/urj.v16i1.5334

Resumen: Introducción: El monitoreo biológico en los sistemas de tratamiento de aguas residuales por lodos activados ofrece resultados integrales y es una herramienta complementaria en las decisiones de control operacional. Una herramienta para ello es el Índice Biológico de Lodos (IBL), basado en protozoos, pero en Costa Rica hay pocos datos sobre este tema. Objetivo: Evaluar el IBL como herramienta de bioindicación en agua residual hospitalaria. Métodos: De febrero a abril de 2022 tomamos, en un hospital costarricense, un total 36 muestras de un sistema de tratamiento por lodos activados Convencional y de un Biorreactor de Membrana (MBR). Resultados: La eficiencia de remoción del DBO y DQO fue mayor en el MBR, sin embargo, en ambos casos la eficiencia fue alta (mayor al 85%), y esto se relaciona con los altos valores de IBL. La eficiencia de remoción nitrógeno no superó el 50% (MBR). Ningún parámetro ambiental tuvo correlación con los valores de IBL, pero la edad del lodo afectó el valor de IBL. Conclusión: Tanto en el sistema de tratamiento convencional como en el MBR, los valores promedio de IBL demuestran un buen desempeño y una alta calidad de los lodos activados.

Predictive toxicology of chemical mixtures using proteome-wide thermal profiling and protein target properties

Lizano-Fallas, V., Carrasco del Amor, A., Cristobal, S., 2024. Predictive toxicology of chemical mixtures using proteome-wide thermal profiling and protein target properties. Chemosphere 364. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.chemosphere.2024.143228

Abstract: Our capability to predict the impact of exposure to chemical mixtures on environmental and human health is limited in comparison to the advances on the chemical characterization of the exposome. Current approaches, such as new approach methodologies, rely on the characterization of the chemicals and the available toxicological knowledge of individual compounds. In this study, we show a new methodological approach for theassessment of chemical mixtures based on a proteome-wide identification of the protein targets and revealing the relevance of new targets based on their role in the cellular function. We applied a proteome integral solubility alteration assay to identify 24 protein targets from a chemical mixture of 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin, alpha-endosulfan, and bisphenol A among the HepG2 soluble proteome, and validated the chemical mixture-target interaction orthogonally. To define the range of interactive capability of the new targets, the data from intrinsic properties of the targets were retrieved. Introducing the target properties as criteria for a multi-criteria decision-making analysis called the analytical hierarchy process, the prioritization of targets was based on their involvement in multiple pathways. This methodological approach that we present here opens a more realistic and achievable scenario to address the impact of complex and uncharacterized chemical mixtures in biological systems.

Toxicity of selected pharmaceuticals and their mixtures to the aquatic indicators Daphnia magna and Aliivibrio fischeri

Montiel-Mora, J.R., Méndez-Rivera, M., Ramírez-Morales, D., Cambronero-Heinrichs, J.C., Rodríguez-Rodríguez, C.E., 2024. Toxicity of selected pharmaceuticals and their mixtures to the aquatic indicators Daphnia magna and Aliivibrio fischeri. Ecotoxicology. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10646-024-02798-0

Abstract: Despite the beneﬁts derived from the use of pharmaceuticals, these compounds are currently considered contaminants of emerging concern because of their presence and persistence in the environment. This study aimed to determine the toxicity of 27 pharmaceuticals and the interaction effects of binary mixtures of selected compounds towards two model organisms: the microcrustacean Daphnia magna and the bacterium Aliivibrio ﬁscheri (Microtox test). Six compounds, namely polymyxin B, polymyxin E, ﬂuoxetine, diphenhydramine, clenbuterol and ketoprofen exhibited moderate toxicity towards D. magna. Additionally, three compounds (cefotaxime, polymyxin B, polymyxin E) also showed a moderate toxic effect on A. ﬁscheri. The comparison of such results with model estimations showed inaccuracy in the predicted data, highlighting the relevance of experimental ecotoxicological assays. The assayed mixtures contained four selected drugs of high-hazard according to their reported concentrations in wastewater and surface water (diphenhydramine, trimethoprim, ketoprofen, and ﬂuoxetine); data revealed interactions only in the ﬂuoxetine-containing mixtures for D. magna, while all mixtures showed interactions (mostly synergistic) for Microtox. Chronic effects on the reproduction of D. magna were observed after exposure to ﬂuoxetine and diphenhydramine, although higher sensitivity was determined for the latter, while the mixture of these compounds (which showed acute synergy in both models) also affected the reproduction patterns. Nonetheless, all the effects described at the acute or chronic level (for individual compounds or mixtures) were determined at concentrations higher than commonly reported at environmental levels. This work provides valuable ecotoxicological information for the risk assessment of pharmaceuticals and their mixtures in the environment.

Rice yield in Costa Rican Central Pacific did not improve with a urease inhibitor

Pérez-Castillo, A.G., Giraldo-Sanclemente, W., Monge-Muñoz, M., Chinchilla-Soto, C., Alpízar-Marín, M., Zaman, M., 2024. Rice yield in Costa Rican Central Pacific did not improve with a urease inhibitor. Frontiers in Agronomy 6. https://doi.org/10.3389/fagro.2024.1394143

Abstract: Urea is widely used as nitrogen (N) source for rice fertilization in Costa Rica, despite its low efficiency linked to ammonia losses. To assess urea management alternatives, two field experiments were conducted in the Central Pacific region of Costa Rica to study the effect of N-(n-butyl) thiophosphoric triamide (NBPT) on rice yield and N use efficiency (NUE). In Experiment 1 (Exp1) three tillage treatments (commercial-CT-, reduced-RT-, and reduced tillage with previous subsoiler-RTS-) were evaluated with three N managements: control (without N), urea at 124 kg N ha^-1 with and without NBPT. In Experiment 2 (Exp2), a 100 kg N ha^-1 rate (with and without NPBT) was evaluated along with a control (without N). NUE was estimated using ¹⁵N urea isotopic labeling technique for both trials. In Exp1, a significant difference of 4.8% in NUE for grain was observed among urea with and without NBPT, but no tillage effect was observed. No statistically significant differences were observed in yield among the fertilization treatments (Exp1: 3.56 ± 0.98 t ha^-1 for urea and 3.85 ± 0.85 t ha^-1 for urea with NBPT; Exp2: 3.38 ± 0.39 t ha^-1 for urea and 3.40 ± 0.58 t ha^-1 for urea with NBPT) or due to different tillage practices (CT: 3.33 ± 0.79 t ha^-1, RT: 3.56 ± 0.74 t ha^-1, and RTS: 4.23 ± 0.98 t ha^-1). Although the NBPT is a viable option to reduce ammonia losses, its adoption in tropical conditions might be restricted by the small impact on yield.
