“…Although produced to control weeds, atrazine can migrate from soils into the aquatic environment, eventually affecting water quality [37]. Atrazine is frequently detected in soil, surface water, and groundwater, and its routes of entry into the environment mainly include runoff, leaching, and precipitation [36,37]. Atrazine has endocrine-disrupting properties, and it is a carcinogen that can interfere with ecosystems and cause severe risks to humans, animals, and aquatic life [35,38].…”

The rapid growth of anthropogenic activities in recent decades has resulted in the appearance of numerous new chemical compounds in the environment, known as “emerging pollutants” (EPs) or “contaminants of emerging concern” (CECs). Although partially or not yet regulated or monitored, there is growing research interest in these EPs among the scientific community because of their bioaccumulation, persistence, and adverse effects. Among these, endocrine disruptors, pesticides, and pharmaceuticals can have harmful impacts on human health and the ecosystem. Conventional wastewater treatment technologies are not effective in removing these contaminants, allowing them to be released into the receiving environment. In order to improve the understanding of emerging pollutants, this review discusses the source, occurrence, and impacts of bisphenol A, atrazine, amoxicillin, and paracetamol as model molecules of emerging environmental pollutants, an issue that remains underrepresented in Morocco. Then, treatment methods for EPs are reviewed, including adsorption, advanced oxidation processes, biodegradation, and hybrid treatment. It is proposed that adsorption and photocatalysis can be used as simple, effective, and environmentally friendly technologies for their removal. Thus, we summarize some of the adsorbent and photocatalyst materials applied in recent work to control these pollutants. Towards the end of this paper, the development of inexpensive and locally available (Morocco) materials to remove these compounds from wastewater is considered.

“…Furthermore, the NO co-treatment even promoted a reduction of H 2 O 2 content in roots of GLY-exposed plants. In fact, two recent studies by Vieira et al [32] and Singh et al [24] have shown that SNP application (0.05 mg L −1 (168 µM) and 250 µM) lead to decreased ROS content in Pista stratiotes treated with atrazine and P. sativum exposed to 0.25 mM GLY, respectively.…”

“…Unexpectedly, when SNP was foliar applied to GLY-exposed tomato plants, endogenous levels of the herbicide were increased in roots. Although no report is available concerning NO-mediated effects on GLY uptake and partition in plant tissues, a study aimed at evaluating the phytoremediation potential of Pistia stratiotes L. to atrazine (150 µg L −1 ) showed that NO supplementation, via SNP (0.05 mg L −1 ), contributed for a lower phytotoxicity but enhanced the bioaccumulation of this compound [32]. Thus, it appears that NO ameliorative features are most likely related to its function as a signalling molecule, capable of inducing coordinated crosstalk of distinct metabolic chains, rather than inhibiting herbicide uptake and accumulation.…”

Strategies to minimize the effects of glyphosate (GLY), the most used herbicide worldwide, on non-target plants need to be developed. In this context, the current study was designed to evaluate the potential of nitric oxide (NO), provided as 200 µM sodium nitroprusside (SNP), to ameliorate GLY (10 mg kg−1 soil) phytotoxicity in tomato plants. Upon herbicide exposure, plant development was majorly inhibited in shoots and roots, followed by a decrease in flowering and fruit set; however, the co-application of NO partially prevented these symptoms, improving plant growth. Concerning redox homeostasis, lipid peroxidation (LP) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels rose in response to GLY in shoots of tomato plants, but not in roots. Additionally, GLY induced the overaccumulation of proline and glutathione, and altered ascorbate redox state, but resulted in the inhibition of the antioxidant enzymes. Upon co-treatment with NO, the non-enzymatic antioxidants were not particularly changed, but an upregulation of all antioxidant enzymes was found, which helped to keep ROS and LP under control. Overall, data point towards the benefits of NO against GLY in tomato plants by reducing the oxidative damage and stimulating detoxification pathways, while also preventing GLY-induced impairment of flowering and fruit fresh mass.
