Publicación Evaluation of total phenol pollution in water of San Martin Canal from Santiago del Estero, Argentina.(Elsevier, 2018-05) Acosta Rosales, Carina Andrea; López, Clara; Paniagua González, Gema; Garcinuño Martínez, Rosa Mª; Fernández Hernando, PilarSantiago del Estero is a province located in northwestern Argentina. The Dulce River is used for irrigation through a vast network of channels and ditches, including the San Martin Canal (SMC), which crosses the capital city of Santiago del Estero. This canal's water is used for drinking, as well as recreational use for the general population. However, this river has been seriously polluted for several decades. The present study focuses on the identification and the quantification of the water pollution levels of total phenols in the SMC according to the seasonal periods. Water samples from various areas of the canal in different months of the year, extending from December to September, were collected for analysis. Additionally, the concentration of total dissolved solids (TDS), chlorides, sulphates, nitrites and organic matter, as well as water hardness and alkalinity, were analysed in order to conduct a more complete study of the contamination of this area. The results showed a worrying total phenol concentration that exceeded the limit set by Argentine legislation for drinking water, as well as water for recreational use (5 μg/L). The total phenol (TP) concentration was directly determined by a molecular absorption spectroscopy method based on a new flow injection analysis system (FIA). Under the selected experimental conditions, the detection and quantification limits were 0.0490 and 0.1633 μg/mL, respectively. The developed method provides a number of improvements related to the speed of analysis, the restricted consumption of the reagents and sample volumes and the unnecessary sample treatment that contribute to environmentally friendly analytical chemistry. The results showed that TP make a significant contribution in the SMC pollution, especially during the months of April (400 ± 110 μg/L) and September (240 ± 20 μg/L). A high sulphate concentration that was higher than the limit allowed by the legislation was also found.Publicación Statistical evaluation of fluoride contamination in groundwater resources of Santiago del Estero Province , Argentina(Elsevier, 2020-11) Rondano Gómez, Karina del Valle; López Pasquali, C. E.; Paniagua González, Gema; Fernández Hernando, Pilar; Garcinuño Martínez, Rosa MªThis study investigates the suitability of statistical techniques for evaluating the fluoride content and the groundwater quality from Robles Department (RD) and Banda Department (BD) areas in Santiago del Estero (Argentina). Groundwater mineralization is driven by many processes such as, weathering of volcanic products, geothermal activity and human activities. The original matrix consisted of 9 parameters estimated (fluoride content, pH, conductivity, environmental and water temperatures, total dissolved solids, chloride concentration, hardness and alkalinity) from 110 groundwater samples collected of 23 selected scattered rural areas. Groundwater samples were obtained by sampling in wells at different depths. The fluoride levels were determined by a standard colorimetric method in two seasonal periods, dry (from April to September) and rainy (from October to March). Parameters such as pH and total dissolved solids (TDS) reached their highest values in the rainy season; while the temperature, alkalinity, chloride concentration and hardness did it in the dry season. In both seasons, the environmental temperature average was 22 °C. Regarding the fluoride content, approximately the fifty percent of the analyzed groundwater samples exceeded the upper limit (1.0 mg/L) established by the current legislation, obtaining concentration levels between 0.01-2.80 mg/L. This study demonstrates the usefulness of univariate (quartiles calculation, interquartile range IQR) and multivariate statistical method of principal component analysis (PCA) and clusters to establish a better understanding of the environmental status of the region studied and the degree of pollution.Publicación Methacrylic acid-ethylene glycol dimethacrylate polymeric sorbent for the removal of estrogens from water(['Estrogens', 'Removal', 'Polymer', 'Sorbent', 'Waters', 'Balaban Publishers – Desalination Publications'], 2018-11) Gallego, Alejandrina; Bravo Yagüe, Juan Carlos; Paniagua González, Gema; Fernández Hernando, Pilar; Garcinuño Martínez, Rosa MªThe presence of estrogens in environmental waters can cause adverse effects to aquatic organisms. In the last years, diverse researches have been focussed on the development of cost-effective methods for the removal of these compounds in water. In this paper, a series of methacrylic acid-ethylene glycol dimethacrylate polymers with different monomers ratio were synthesised by photochemical (UV irradiation at 365 nm) or thermal (oven at 60°C) initiation. Batch and continuous flow experiments were carried out to evaluate the capacity of these polymers to adsorb estradiol (E2), ethinylestradiol (EE2) and dienestrol (DEN). Adsorption isotherm studies revealed that Langmuir isotherm model was fitted with a better correlation than Freundlich isotherm. Finally, continuous flow experiments were carried out by microcolumn studies to check the suitability of the polymeric sorbent for the removal of estrogens from real water samples. When continuous removal experiments at 8 mL min–1 flow rate were carried out, breakthrough adsorption capacities of 28.5, 38 and 69.7 mg g–1 for E2, EE2 and DEN, respectively, were achieved.Publicación Occurrence of common plastic additives and contaminants in raw, steamed and canned mussel samples from different harvesting areas using MSPDHPLC methodology(Elsevier, 2024-04) Garrido Gamarro, Esther; Soliz Rojas, Dulce Lucy; Paniagua González, Gema; Fernández Hernando, Pilar; Garcinuño Martínez, Rosa MªMicroplastics are a complex mix of chemicals containing polymers and certain plastic additives such as bisphenols and phthalates. These particles are porous materials that can also sorb contaminants from their surroundings, and leach chemicals from the particle under certain circumstances. Aquatic animals can ingest microplastic particles, which mostly bioaccumulate in the gastrointestinal tract of animals. In terms of dietary exposure, small animals consumed whole such as mussels, contribute more to the dietary intake of microplastic particles. Plastic additives and contaminants are not chemically bound to the polymers, and certain processing methods or cooking processes result in the release of these chemicals that leach from the plastic particles, leaving them more available for absorption when ingested. Analytical methods are crucial for a better understanding of the occurrence of plastic additives and contaminants in aquatic products, and to know certain circumstances and treatments that influence human exposure. This study uses an MSPD-HPLC methodology for the simultaneous determination of 9 analytes (BPA, BPF, BPS, DEP, DBP, DEHP, DDD, DDT, and DDE) analyzing, for the first time, the occurrence of these chemicals in raw, steamed and canned mussels of two different harvesting areas (Atlantic and the Mediterranean), becoming one of the most efficient methodologies for determining the presence of these analytes in very complex food matrices, able to define the changes in cooking and processing activities. The results showed that the heat and pressure treatment could influence the migration of plastic additives from microplastic particles present in mussels to the cooking liquids.Publicación Quantification of differential tissue biomarker responses to microplastic ingestion and plasticizer bioaccumulation in aquaculture reared sea bream Sparus aurata(Elsevier, 2022-08) Capó Fiol, Xavier; Alomar, Carme; Compa, Monserrat; Solé, Montserrat; Sanahuja, Ignasi; Deudero, Salud; Soliz Rojas, Dulce Lucy; Paniagua González, Gema; Garcinuño Martínez, Rosa MªMarine aquaculture is considered a potential source of microplastics (MPs). MPs can induce oxidative stress and damage in marine species. In this study we evaluated the impact of MPs intake in the commercial fish, Sparus aurata , from aquaculture facilities and the antioxidant response associated to this MPs ingestion in caged specimens for 120 days. Sampling was carried out at the beginning of the study T 0 at 60 days (T 60 ) and at 120 days (T 120 ). At each sampling stage, gastrointestinal tract, blood, plasma, liver and muscle samples were obtained to analyse MPs intake (gastrointestinal tract), oxidative stress markers (blood, plasma and liver) and plasticizers bioaccumulation (muscle). Fish sampled at T 60 presented the highest MPs intake and plasticizers accumulated in muscle over time, but with a different pattern according to type: bisphenols and phthalates. This indicates MPs ingestion induces a differential tissue response in S. aurata . Similarly, stress biomarkers presented a differential response throughout the study, depending on the analysed tissue. In the case of oxidative damage markers, for malondialdehyde (MDA) an increase throughout the study was observed both in liver and blood cells but with a progressive decrease in plasma. In the case of phase I detoxifying enzyme activities in liver, 7-ethoxyresorufin O-deethylase (EROD), 7-benzyloxy-4-[trifluoromethyl]coumarin-O-debenzyloxylase (BFCOD) and carboxylesterases (CE), showed a comparable decrease at T 60 with a slight recovery at T 120 . In contrast, glutathione- S -transferase (GST) activity was significantly enhanced at T 60 compared to the other sampling stages. In conclusion, MPs ingestion occurs in aquaculture reared seabream where potentially associated plasticizers accumulate in the muscle and both could be responsible for plasma and liver oxidative stress damage and alterations on detoxifying biomarkers responsesPublicación Assessing microplastic ingestion and occurrence of bisphenols and phthalates in bivalves, fish and holothurians from a Mediterranean marine protected area(Elsevier, 2022-08-07) Rios Fuster, Beatriz; Alomar, Carme; Deudero, Salud; Paniagua González, Gema; Soliz Rojas, Dulce Lucy; Fernández Hernando, Pilar; Garcinuño Martínez, Rosa MªMicroplastic (MP) ingestion, along with accumulated plasticizers such as bisphenol A (BPA), bisphenol F (BPF), and bisphenol S (BPS), and phthalates represented by diethyl phthalate (DEP), dibutyl phthalate (DBP) and bis (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP), were quantified in bivalves, fish, and holothurians collected from a coastal pristine area at the western Mediterranean Sea. MP ingestion in sediment-feeders holothurians (mean value 12.67 ± 7.31 MPs/individual) was statistically higher than ingestion in bivalves and fish (mean 4.83 ± 5.35 and 3 ± 4.44 MPs/individual, respectively). The main ingested polymers were polyethylene, polypropylene, and polystyrene. The levels of BPS, BPF, and DEHP were highest in bivalves' soft tissue; BPA and DBP had the highest levels in the holothurians’ muscle. In addition, the levels of all plasticizers assessed were lowest in fish muscle; only BPA levels in fish were higher than in bivalves, with intermediate values between those of bivalves and holothurians. This study provides data on exposure to MPs and plasticizers of different species inhabiting Cabrera Marine Protected Area (MPA) and highlights the differences in MP ingestion and levels of plasticizers between species with different ecological characteristics and feeding strategies.Publicación Identification and morphological characterization of different types of plastic microparticles(Elsevier, 2024-05-15) Soliz Rojas, Dulce Lucy; Paniagua González, Gema; Muñoz Arnanz, Juan; Bravo Yagüe, Juan Carlos; Fernández Hernando, Pilar; Garcinuño Martínez, Rosa MªThe knowledge of the polymeric composition of microplastics (MPs) is interesting because offers useful information on the resistance, durability, and degradability of these materials, also allowing progress in the control of this contamination. However, there is currently a lack of reliable standardized methods for the identification, and characterization of the plastic microparticles. This work uses different techniques in a complementary manner for the identification, and characterization of MPs that more frequently are found in the environment. A total of 10 types of plastics were collected (polystyrene (PS), polyethylene terephthalate (PETE), polyethylene (PE), high- and low-density polyethylene (HDPE and LDPE, respectively), polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polypropylene (PP), polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), Polyamide (PA, Nylon 6,6) and poly-carbonate (PC)) and their chemical identification were analyzed by reflectance-attenuated infrared (FTIR-ATR). Furthermore, the samples were observed using light microscopy, and scan-ning electron microscopy (SEM). Also, staining with 12 different dyes was performed to improve the identification of microplastics. The results of this study revealed that PETE, PE, HDPE and LDPE, whose SEM images exhibited smoothness and flat uniformity of their surface, were not (or less) susceptible to adsorb staining solutions while PP, PA, PVC, and PTFE, were capable of adsorbing the dye solutions.Publicación Synthesis and characterization of a molecularly imprinted polymer for the determination of spiramycin in sheep milk(Elsevier, 2017-04-15) Durand Alegría, J.S.; García Mayor, M Asunción; Paniagua González, Gema; Fernández Hernando, Pilar; Garcinuño Martínez, Rosa MªA series of molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) comprising reactionary sites which are complementary to macrolide antibiotic spiramycin (SPI) were synthetized by noncovalent bulk polymerization technique. MIPs were synthesized under different polymerization process and their recognition efficiency was evaluated in binding studies in comparison with non-imprinted polymers. The best MIP was morphologically characterized and equilibrium assays were carried out. The MIP was evaluated as a sorbent for extraction and preconcentration of SPI from aqueous and sheep milk samples, and an off-line MISPE method followed by high-performance liquid chromatography with UV diode-array detection was established. Good linearity were obtained for SPI in a range of 24–965 μg kg−1 and the average recoveries at three spiked levels in milk samples were higher than 90% (RSD < 5%). Limit of quantification was 24.1 μg kg−1. Cross-reactivity studies from other macrolides with similar structure were tested. The optimum imprinted polymer showed a good selectivity and affinity for SPI, demonstrating the potential of the proposed MISPE for rapid, sensitive and effective sample pretreatment for selective determination of SPI in sheep milk samples.Publicación On-line flow injection molecularly imprinted solid phase extraction for the preconcentration and determination of 1-hydroxypyrene in urine samples(Elsevier, 2017-05-01) Serrano, Montserrat; Bartolomé, Mónica; Gañán Aceituno, Judith; Gallego Picó, Alejandrina; Bravo Yagüe, Juan Carlos; Paniagua González, Gema; Garcinuño Martínez, Rosa MªNew analytical strategies tend to automation of sample pre-treatment and flow analysis techniques provided a number of enhanced analytical methods allowing high throughput. Flow techniques are usually faster, more robust and more flexible than their batch equivalents. In addition, flow methods use less sample and reagent amounts and reduce analytical costs and waste. A flow injection solid-phase extraction pre-concentration system using a molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) packed micro-column was developed for the determination of 1-hydroxypyrene in human urine with fluorescence detection. The pre-concentration of 1-hydroxypyrene on the MIP was carried out based on the specific retention of analyte by on-line introducing the sample into the micro-column system. Methanol and dichloromethane mixture was used to elute the retained analyte for fluorometric analysis. Important influencing factors were studied in detail, in batch and in flow (MISPE procedure optimisation, sample and eluent volumes, flow rate, dimensions of MIP micro-column and amounts of packing material, etc). To the best of our knowledge, this is the first on-line flow injection molecularly imprinted solid phase extraction for the pre-concentration and determination of hydroxylate PAH metabolite in urine samples. The optimised method was successfully applied to the determination of 1-Hydroxypyrene in spiked urine samples, with recoveries in the range of 74–85% and RSD<4.6%. Under optimum experimental conditions, the linearity concentration range used was 10–400 μg L−1, R2>0.996. We obtained limit of detection and quantification of 3.1 μg L−1 and 10.5 μg L−1, respectivelyPublicación Assessment of the impact of aquaculture facilities on transplanted mussels (Mytilus galloprovincialis): Integrating plasticizers and physiological analyses as a biomonitoring strategy(Elsevier, 2022-02-15) Rios Fuster, Beatriz; Alomar, Carme; Capó, Xavier; Silva, Mónica; Solé, Montserrat; Freitas, Rosa; Deudero, Salud; Paniagua González, Gema; Soliz Rojas, Dulce Lucy; Fernández Hernando, Pilar; Garcinuño Martínez, Rosa MªThe growing plastic production and its continuous use is a significant problem. In addition, aquaculture practices have experienced a considerable growth and plastic is widely used in these activities, hence plasticizers must be considered due to their potential ecotoxicological impacts on species. Mussels placed inside an Integrated Multi-Trophic Aquaculture (IMTA) system and at two control locations were employed to quantify the ingestion of anthropogenic particles and associated chemical plasticizers, such as bisphenol A (BPA) jointly to bisphenol F (BPF) and bisphenol S (BPS), and phthalates represented by diethyl phthalate (DEP), dibutyl phthalate (DBP) and bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP). In addition, some metabolism and oxidative stress related parameters were measured in mussels’ whole soft tissue. Anthropogenic particle ingestion of mussels increased over time at the three locations and the following order of abundance of pollutants was observed: BPA> BPF> DEHP> DBP> BPS> DEP. Even though no differences according to location were found for pollutants’ occurrence, time trends were evidenced for BPA and DEHP. On the other hand, a location effect was observed for biomarkers with highest values detected in mussels located at the vicinities of the aquaculture facility. In addition, a reduced detoxification activity was observed over time parallel to BPA decrease.
