Conteúdo:  Many pollutants are known to adversely affect development and physiology by interfering with normal endocrine functions. Among them, numerous pesticides are described as able to change the endocrine system, since the differentiation and development of the reproductive system are dependent of the action of hormones. Endocrine-disrupter chemicals (EDCs) are substances in the environment, food, and consumer products that interfere with hormone biosynthesis, metabolism, or action, resulting in a deviation from normal homeostatic control or reproduction. Exposure to an EDC may have different consequences for an adult compared with a developing fetus or infant. The developing organism interaction with these chemicals may lead to the development of a disease or dysfunction later in life. Results from animal models and epidemiological studies converge to implicate them as a significant concern to public health since their mechanisms involve different pathways that are present in wildlife and humans. Furthermore, effects of different classes of EDCs may be additive or even synergistic, but there are limited data on the interactions between them. An increased understanding of the potential human and environmental health risks of exposure to single and mixtures of EDCs as well as the efficient removal process of EDCs from water are important but remain understudied. This entry presents an overview of the environmental EDC contamination and its possible effects on different organisms. H... Mostrar Tudo

Conteúdo:  abstract Socioeconomic and environmental losses caused by water erosion have highlighted the importance of quantifying and understanding the dynamics of soil redistribution in the landscape to develop effective soil management practices. Several methods are applied to estimate erosion/deposition rates and identify sources of sediments, among them, the one that uses rare earth elements (REE) as a tracer stands out. However, an alternative not yet explored that can benefit the accuracy of the estimates provided by the method is using a tracer containing a chemical signature composed of more than one REE. The present study aimed to evaluate the performance of a new water erosion tracer based on montmorillonite labeled with rare earth elements (La40-MMT). The innovative aspects of this La40-MMT tracer include its highly stable multi-chemical signature (Nd3þ, La3þ, and Pr3þ), which enhances tracer detection in the environment, and its low production cost due to the use of an industrial residue in the synthesis process. The tracer was evaluated for a typical soil of the Cerrado biome, using a natural rainfall field-scale plot - NRFP (5 m 20 m) and a physical predictive erosion model (WEPP). The results showed that the La40-MMT tracer could be used to estimate erosion/deposition rates, with agreement between the values observed with the tracer and the WEPP model. Thus, this study confirmed the great potential of La40-MMT as a tool to identify patterns of soil redistribution at the ... Mostrar Tudo
