“…While clayey and loamy soils retained high neonicotinoid concentrations in topsoil, sandy soils eluted neonicotinoids easily into deep soil (Mörtl et al, 2016). Moreover, when neonicotinoid concentrations were measured in greenhouse soils (Wu et al, 2020), the highest concentrations were observed in topsoil samples relative to deep soil samples. Bonmatin et al (2019; consistently observed that the distributions of neonicotinoid concentrations in agricultural soils differ among crop types.…”

“…Several reports provided evidence of neonicotinoid infiltrations into soils in countries worldwide. For instance, Wu et al (2020) detected seven neonicotinoids in soils of tomato greenhouses and six neonicotinoids in soils of cucumber greenhouses in Shouguang, East China (concentrations 0.731-11.383 μg / kg and 0.363 -19.224 μg / kg). Yu et al (2021) determined the residual levels of neonicotinoids in 351 agricultural soil samples from Zengcheng, a typical agricultural zone in South China, and found that at least one neonicotinoid was detected in 95% of the soil samples.…”

Neonicotinoid insecticides are exclusively used for insect control in many parts of the globe. Since early 1992, various neonicotinoid active compounds have been used for pest control in Japan. At present, all seven major neonicotinoid active compounds, imidacloprid, acetamiprid, dinotefuran, clothianidin, thiamethoxam, thiacloprid, and nitenpyram, are used in Japan, and the total shipment amount of these chemicals in the country was estimated 337.9 tons in 2022. Due to the massive neonicotinoid application in Japan, concerns have been raised about their potential infiltrations into nontarget ecosystems and their effects on human and ecological species. These concerns have inspired several studies, extensively investigating the environmental contamination levels and exposure tendencies in humans and several other invertebrate species. The current status report harmonized the up-to-date data on neonicotinoids in Japan and identified the incoherencies or knowledge gaps existing in the neonicotinoid literature reported in Japan. The report further summarized extensive neonicotinoid publications globally to illustrate the distributions of various neonicotinoid compounds in agricultural soils and surface waters and their exposures in humans and nontarget animal species. This report represents a few perspectives with detailed data from Japan into perspective.

“…Because of their extensive use, NEOs have become ubiquitous in water, − soils, − indoor dust, , and fruits and vegetables − in China, creating a potential exposure risk to humans. Following exposure, parent NEOs (p-NEOs) can be partly metabolized by cytochrome P450 enzymes in organisms to form specific metabolites (m-NEOs) that are excreted in the urine within 24 h …”

Studies on neonicotinoid (NEO) exposure in pregnant women and fetuses are scarce, and transplacental transfer of these insecticides is unknown. In this study, parent NEOs (p-NEOs) and their metabolites (m-NEOs) were determined in 95 paired maternal (MS) and cord serum (CS) samples collected in southern China. Imidacloprid was the predominant p-NEO in both CS and MS samples, found at median concentrations of 1.84 and 0.79 ng/mL, respectively, whereas N-desmethylacetamiprid was the most abundant m-NEO in CS (median: 0.083 ng/mL) and MS (0.13 ng/mL). The median transplacental transfer efficiencies (TTEs) of p-NEOs and m-NEOs were high, ranging from 0.81 (thiamethoxam, THM) to 1.61 (olefinimidacloprid, of-IMI), indicating efficient placental transfer of these insecticides. Moreover, transplacental transport of NEOs appears to be passive and structuredependent: cyanoamidine NEOs such as acetamiprid and thiacloprid had higher TTE values than the nitroguanidine NEOs, namely, clothianidin and THM. Multilinear regression analysis revealed that the concentrations of several NEOs in MS were associated significantly with hematological parameters related to hepatotoxicity and renal toxicity. To our knowledge, this is the first analysis of the occurrence and distribution of NEOs in paired maternal−fetal serum samples.

“…Agricultural soil for crop production is generally used under two cultivated models, open-elds and greenhouses. Especially for greenhouses, it is a technology-based approach, which have been widely popularized and applied in elds of vegetables, fruits and owers by creating a micro-scale environment (Wu et al 2020). It has been characterized by strong risk resistance, highly concentrated knowledge and technology, and multiple effects in the economy, society and ecology (Kumar et al 2006).…”

Combined with the physical isolation feature of greenhouse, the popularization of greenhouse throughout China makes the pollution of greenhouse soils more noteworthy as a result of its high yielding food exposed to human beings. Here, a national-scale survey was conducted to evaluate the contamination status, contaminated sources and human health risks of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and hexachlorobutadiene (HCBD) in greenhouse and open-field soils of 20 regions across China. The PCBs contents ranged from <LOD to 673.78 ng/g with the mean content of 77.38 ng/g in greenhouse soils and ranged from <LOD to 552.53 ng/g with the mean content of 61.90 ng/g in open-field soils. The HCBD contents ranged from 0.85 ng/g to 24.18 ng/g with the mean content of 8.33 ng/g in greenhouse soils and ranged from <LOD to 20.19 ng/g with the mean content of 6.39 ng/g in open-field soils. Among divided seven regions, higher levels of PCBs in greenhouse and open-field soils were found in north and south China. Furthermore, in most regions, correlation analysis indicated that soil PCBs in greenhouse and open-field were likely from the same emission sources. Higher levels of soil pollutants in greenhouse than in open-field may be contributed to the limited air-soil exchange. Compared with higher levels of ΣPCBs in greenhouse soils, the health risks of ΣPCBs in open-field soils were higher due to the higher percentages of high-toxicity PCBs, especially for the carcinogenic risks to children (> 10-6). This study provided a full insight into the contamination status and risks of PCBs and HCBD when guiding greenhouse agriculture activities.
