“…This can be attributed to the effects of various pollutants which are received by this lake through sewage water which is directly released to the water body which contains various pollutants. In past, it has been reported that several pesticides/pollutants can cause adverse effects on fish liver/liver enzymes (Srivastava et al, 1990a;Kumar et al, 2013;Raza et al, 2016;Mohebbi et al, 2020;Zanaty et al, 2020;Kothekar et al, 2022;Manimekalai et al, 2022;Topić Popović et al, 2023).…”

“…The discharge of industrial effluents from multiple industries into the receiving water bodies has been linked to a number of fish mortality cases (Das, 2003;Adewoye and Lateef, 2004;Adewoye et al,2005;Amte and Mhaskar, 2012) Since records of the documented use of pesticides even in developed nations reveal that less than 1% of pesticides applied to crops reach the target organisms, indiscreet and unpredictable use of agrochemicals has raised significant concerns among researchers. However, Chapman et al (1998) and Manimekalai et al (2022) have reported that more than 99 per cent pollute the air, water, and land. These pesticides can get into the natural environment either by spreading on target organisms or by transferring the synthetic compounds from the soil.…”

The present study was performed to investigate the histopathological changes in liver and kidney of Tilipia fish, Oreochromis mossambicus caught from Mallapura lake of Chitradurga district. The study indicates the toxic effect of untreated sewage water on fish organs like liver and kidney. The hepatocytes show focal lipid deposition with focal areas of degeneration. There are focal aggregates of melanomacrophages and mild mixed inflammation. In tubular region of kidney foci of infiltration of inflammatory cells or inflammation were noticed. The present findings indicate that untreated sewage is acutely toxic to the fish.

Dirty dozen chemicals (DDCs) are a group of 12 extremely toxic chemicals that were recognized at the Stockholm convention in 2001 for their severe impact on the ecosystem and human health. Despite the embargo and restraint placed on DDCs usage, these chemicals continue to find their way into the ecosystem because they are still secretly or openly applied by many nations, especially in African regions. Moreover, DDCs can still be perceived where they have been employed previously before the Stockholm convention treaty due to their persistent profile. This study aimed to critically review original works directed toward the removal of various dirty dozen chemicals using covalent and metal–organic frameworks (COFs and MOFs). Specifically, in this study, various COFs/MOFs and their composites with remarkably tailored adsorptive profiles are evaluated for their adsorption efficiency for different DDCs. In addition, the effect of various operating parameters that are of importance to environmentalists and various stakeholders for optimization purposes was empirically discussed. This review also fills knowledge vacuums about the COF/MOF‐DDCs adsorption process, offers insights into their reusability potential, fundamental mechanism, isotherm, and kinetic modeling, and offers a framework for future studies. Findings from this study revealed that COF and MOF have high DDC removal capacity and reusability potential attributed to their admirable porosity and the existence of a plethora of oxygen‐rich functional groups that allow for better interactions with DDCs through chelation, halogen bonding, H‐bonding, and π‐π interactions and stacking. This points to the upscaling potential of this remediation technique. Future researchers need to direct more efforts to the use of density functional theory for mechanism interpretation, exploration of hybrid technology, cost analysis, scalability, isotherm, thermodynamics, adsorption, and desorption kinetic modeling.
