Much more attention has been poured into microplastic pollution in freshwater systems recently. In the present study, the pollution of microplastics (MPs) in surface water and freshwater fish (crucian carp, etc.) were investigated from Gehu Lake, which is the second largest lake in southern Jiangsu after Taihu Lake. The result manifested that the average abundance of MPs was respectively 6.33±2.67 n/L for surface water and 10.7 items per individual for freshwater fish. The distribution of MPs in Gehu Lake varied from place to place, with the highest abundance of MPs was observed in the two estuaries of the eastern part of the lake. It was speculated that topographical factors and human factors were the main factors affecting the abundance and distribution of MPs. Transparent fibers were the main type of MPs in water samples, accounting for 69.70% of all detected particles. Meanwhile, most of the MPs ingested by freshwater fish were fibers, and the main colors were transparent and blue. In addition, the dominant size of the MPs was between 0.1 to 0.5 mm in water and fish samples. Moreover, PES, man-made fiber, and PP were the dominant polymer types in the surface water and fish samples. The results of this investigation can provide basic data for the research and management of MPs in freshwater systems.

Arsenic (As) speciation and bioaccumulation in fish muscle tissues have been intensively investigated in marine ecosystem. However, little is known about these in freshwater fish. In this study, freshwater fish including 120 specimens and 8 species were collected from the Xiang River, a typical mine-impacted river in China. Six As species including arsenite (AsIII), arsenate (AsV), monomethylarsonic acid (MMA), dimethylarsinic acid (DMA), arsenocholine (AsC) and arsenobetaine (AsB) were simultaneously separated and determined using HPLC-ICP-MS. The mean (± SD) concentration of total As (tAs) in the dried fish muscle was 0.748 ± 0.651 mg·kg − 1 . AsB was found as the predominant As species in most of the studied fish samples, in accordance with the reports in marine fish. However, the diversity of inorganic/organic As proportion observed in the studied freshwater fish species was larger than that in marine fish species due to greater spatial variability of As contamination, mobilization and origination in the studied catchments. The percentage of AsB (AsB%) in fish muscle was irrelevant to tAs concentration, while the percentage of iAs (iAs%) decreased with tAs concentration in a hyperbolic pattern. This can be attributed to restricted assimilation and accumulation of toxic iAs with increasing tAs concentration in fish. Chronic non-carcinogenic and carcinogenic health risks were evaluated through Monte-Carlo simulation. The result indicated that consuming freshwater fish in the Xiang River could cause considerable carcinogenic risk to local inhabitants.

Antibiotics and sedatives are used in freshwater fish culture and transportation, and residue in freshwater fish pose potential risks to human health. Therefore, a throughput method was developed to detect antibiotic and sedative residues in fish, simultaneously quantifying 68 antibiotics and 9 sedatives in freshwater fish using a modified QuEChERS extraction method and UPLC-MS/MS. Matrix-matched calibrations demonstrated good correlation coefficients (R 2 > 0.995), with a recovery range of 66.2–118.5%. The intra-day and inter-day relative standard deviation (RSD) were below 9.7% and 12.8%, respectively. The limits of detection (LOD) and quantification (LOQ) were 0.08–1.46 μg/kg and 0.25–4.86 μg/kg, respectively. 68.8% of analytes had weak matrix effects, and 13.0% had moderate matrix effects. In addition, diazepam and many types of antibiotics were detected in30 freshwater fish. The validation parameters were in agreement with the acceptable criteria of the Codex guidelines. The method was effective in analyzing antibiotic and sedative residues in freshwater fish.

Organic pollutants such as di-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) interact with nanoplastics (NPs) and change their bioavailability and toxicity to aquatic organisms. This study aims to assess the ecotoxicological impacts of NPs in the presence and absence of DEHP on juvenile largemouth bass (LMB) Micropterus salmoides . Therefore, LMB was fed with diets containing various concentrations (0, 2, 10, and 40 mg/g) of polystyrene nanoplastics (PSNPs) by the weight of diets. After a 21-day of PSNPs dietary exposure, LMB was treated with DEHP at 450 μg/L through waterborne exposure for three days. Our results showed that PSNPs were accumulated in the intestinal tissues, which significantly decreased the feeding and growth rates in LMB. The histopathological analysis showed the intestine and liver of LMB were subjected to various degrees of structural damage caused by PSNPs, and DEHP-PSNP co-exposure enhanced those histopathological damages in both tissues. Additionally, the co-exposure induced oxidative stress in terms of increased activities of glutathione S-transferase, catalase, and superoxide dismutase enzymes in the liver, intestine, spleen, and serum. Furthermore, the co-exposure significantly changed the intestinal microbial composition, i.e., the decrease in the abundance of probiotics (Bacteroidetes and Proteobacteria) and the increase in pathogenic bacteria (Firmicutes) posed a great threat to fish metabolism and health. Therefore, this study highlights that the presence of DEHP enhances the toxicity of NPs on LMB in freshwater and suggests the regulated use of plastic and its additives for improving the health status of aquaculture fish for food safety in humans.

Understanding the differences in odors of freshwater and marine fish surimi and their products is important for the quality control of surimi products. Aroma compounds in silver carp surimi and three kinds of marine fish surimi and their products were identified by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry/olfactometry, and aroma fingerprints of them were established based on metabolomics analysis methods. Silver carp surimi and surimi products showed the highest “fresh fish” and “grassy, earthy” notes, while the marine fish surimi and their products presented a strong “sea breeze-like” odor. Five Br-containing compounds (sea breeze-like) were identified in the marine fish samples. The aroma fingerprints showed that the odor compositions of freshwater and marine surimi/surimi products were divided into two categories, and the marine fish surimi and their products also showed differences in odors. Furthermore, four commercial surimi and their products could be distinguished according to 33 and 28 differential aroma components, respectively.

As emerging alternatives to perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS), 6:2 chlorinated polyfluoroalkyl ether sulfonic acid (6:2 Cl-PFESA) and sodium p -perfluorous nonenox-benzenesulfonate (OBS) were frequently detected in the four freshwater fish species collected from Poyang Lake. Median concentrations of 6:2 Cl-PFESA and OBS in fish tissues were 0.046–6.0 and 0.46–5.1 ng/g wet weight, respectively. The highest concentrations of 6:2 Cl-PFESA was found in fish livers, whereas OBS was found in the pancreas, brain, gonads, and skin. The tissue distribution pattern of 6:2 Cl-PFESA is similar to that of PFOS. The tissue/liver ratios of OBS were higher than those of PFOS, suggesting that OBS has a greater tendency to transfer from the liver to other tissues. The logarithmic bioaccumulation factors (log BAFs) of 6:2 Cl-PFESA in three carnivorous fish species were greater than 3.7, whereas those of OBS were less than 3.7, indicating that 6:2 Cl-PFESA had a strong bioaccumulation potential. Notably, sex- and tissue-specific bioaccumulation of OBS has also been observed in catfish. Most tissues (except the gonads) exhibited higher OBS concentrations in males than in females. However, no differences were found for 6:2 Cl-PFESA and PFOS. Maternal transfer efficiency of OBS was higher than that of 6:2 Cl-PFESA and PFOS in catfish ( p < 0.05), indicating that OBS presents a higher risk of exposure to males and offspring through maternal offloading.

A sophisticated Ultra-Performance Liquid Chromatography-Tandem Mass Spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) approach was devised for the concurrent quantification of pyrethroid pesticide residues in freshwater fish and shrimp. This analytical method involved ultrasonic extraction using acetonitrile, succeeded by sample purification employing Primary Secondary Amine (PSA) and Zirconium Dioxide Silica (Z-Sep+) following low-temperature centrifugation. Chromatographic separation was achieved with an ACQUITY UPLC BEH C18 column utilizing a mobile phase of a 2 mmol/L ammonium formate aqueous solution and methanol, with detection conducted through ESI + ionization in Multiple Reaction Monitoring (MRM) mode. The assay demonstrated exceptional linearity for seven pyrethroids across a concentration range of 0.5–10 μg/L, evidenced by correlation coefficients surpassing 0.999. Detection limits were established between 0.08 and 0.52 μg/kg, and the lower limits of quantification ranged from 0.28 to 1.72 μg/kg. Furthermore, recovery rates for blank samples were outstanding, ranging from 91.40% to 108.83% at concentrations of 1.0, 4.0, and 20.0 μg/kg, with Relative Standard Deviations (RSDs) between 0.94% and 8.13%. This methodology proved to be rapid, convenient, sensitive, and robust, offering stable recovery rates. Notably, it facilitated the detection of seven pyrethroid pesticide residues in freshwater fish and shrimp within an expedited timeframe of 15 min. This pioneering technique constitutes a significant advancement in the development of new methods for ensuring food safety.

Most of analytical community is focused on reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) for mercury speciation by employing mobile phases comprising of high salts and moderate amounts of organic solvents. This study aims at rapid mercury speciation analysis by ion-pairing RP-HPLC with inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) detection only using low salts for the sake of green analytical chemistry. Two ion-pairing HPLC methods were developed on individual usage of positively and negatively charged ion-pairing reagents (tetrabutylammonium hydroxide –TBAH and sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate –SDBS), where sodium 3-mercapto-1-propysulfonate (MPS) and l -cysteine (Cys) were individually added in mobile phases to transform mercury species into negative and positive Hg-complexes for good resolution. Addition of phenylalanine was also utilized for rapid baseline separation in combination of short C 18 guard columns. Optimum mobile phases of 2.0 mM SDBS + 2.0 mM Cys + 1.0 mM Phe (pH 3.0) and 4.0 mM TBAH + 2.0 mM MPS + 2.0 mM Phe (pH 6.0) both achieved baseline separation of inorganic mercury (Hg 2+ ), methylmercury (MeHg), ethylmercury (EtHg) and phenylmercury (PhHg) on two consecutive 12.5-mm C 18 columns. The former mobile phase was selected for mercury speciation in freshwater fish because of short separation time (3.0 min). Detection limits of 0.015 for Hg 2+ , 0.014 for MeHg, 0.028 for EtHg and 0.042 μg L −1 for PhHg were obtained along with satisfactory precisions of peak height and area (1.0-2.8% for 5.0 μg L −1 Hg-mixture standard). Good accordance of determined values of MeHg and total mercury in certified reference materials of fish tissue (GBW 10029) and tuna fish (BCR-463) with certified values as well as good recoveries (91–106%) proved good accuracy of the proposed method. An example application to freshwater fish indicated its potential in routine analysis, where MeHg was presented at 3.7–20.3 μg kg −1 as the dominate species.

Due to many special characteristics, zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) are widely used all over the world, leading to their wide distribution in the environment. However, the toxicities and mechanisms of environmental ZnO NP-induced changes of physiological processes and metabolism remain largely unknown. Here, we found that addition of dietary ZnO NPs disturbed hepatic Zn metabolism, increased hepatic Zn and lipid accumulation, downregulated lipolysis, induced oxidative stress, and activated mitophagy; N,N,N′,N′-tetrakis (2-pyridylmethyl) ethylenediamine (TPEN, Zn2+ ions chelator) alleviated high ZnO NP-induced Zn and lipid accumulation, oxidative stress, and mitophagy. Mechanistically, the suppression of mitochondrial oxidative stress attenuated ZnO NP-activated mitophagy and ZnO NP-induced lipotoxicity. Taken together, our study elucidated that mitochondrial oxidative stress mediated ZnO NP-induced mitophagy and lipotoxicity; ZnO NPs could be dissociated to free Zn2+ ions, which partially contributed to ZnO NP-induced changes in oxidative stress, mitophagy, and lipid metabolism. Our study provides novel insights into the impacts and mechanism of ZnO NPs as harmful substances inducing lipotoxicity of aquatic organisms, and accordingly, metabolism-relevant parameters will be useful for the risk assessment of nanoparticle materials in the environment.

Microplastics (MPs) discharged from wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) have emerged as serious pollutants in aquatic environments. Herein, a new magnetic filter (MFA) was prepared using an acidification–magnetization method with fly ash (FA) as the base material. The filter specifically targeted the removal of 1-μm polystyrene microspheres (PSMPs) because of the challenges they pose in filtration processes. The findings demonstrated that MFA filter exhibited superior PSMPs removal efficiency, with increases of 219%, 250%, and 288% compared to FA at flow rates of 1, 3, and 5 mL min −1 , respectively. Scanning electron microscopy and other characterizations provided insights into the removal mechanisms of PSMPs using the MFA filter, which combined electrostatic attraction, π–electron conjugation, hydrogen bonding, and complexation. Environmental variables, such as solution pH, ionic strength, and dissolved organic matter, were identified as considerable influences in the removal process of PSMPs. The practical application confirmed that the MFA filter considerably promoted the elimination of MPs from the secondary treatment effluent of WWTPs without having any toxic effects on freshwater fish. Thus, this study provides a new approach to the resource utilization of FA, which would prominently promote its application prospects in MPs immobilization and removal from wastewater effluent.

Feeding faba beans to freshwater fish could crisp its muscle texture to avoid softening. However, the dynamic crisping mechanism was unclear. Herein, a 120-day feeding trial was conducted to systemically investigate the textural crisping mechanism of crisp grass carp (CGC) via molecular-level, gene/protein expression analysis. In the early crisping stage (0–30 days), the total antioxidant capacity significantly decreased (by 16.79%), TUNEL staining and qRT-PCR results revealed that apoptosis occurred, which was induced by oxidative stress validating by proteomics. Meanwhile, the content of dityrosine and hydroxylysyl pyridinoline rose, thereby substantially increasing the hardness and chewiness of CGC by 37.51% and 40.84%, respectively. With further crisping (30–90 days), Masson staining exhibited collagen gradually filling the gap between myofibrils, the content and cross-linking degree of collagen further increased, finally elevating the hardness and chewiness of CGC. This study laid a theoretical foundation for producing and supplying aquatic raw materials with different texture characteristics.

Endocrine disruption chemicals (EDCs) in food can seriously harm human health. In this study, a hydroxyl and carboxyl group functionalized conjugated microporous nanomaterial (CMP) was prepared by Friedel-Crafts reaction and used as solid-phase extraction (SPE) adsorbent. A functionalized CMP based SPE combined with high performance liquid chromatography-diode array detection was built for the determination of phenolic EDCs from nine fish samples. The extraction conditions were optimized by both single factor and response surface methodology (Box-Behnken Design). The established method performed well in terms of the response linearity (in the range of 0.50–100 ng g −1 with coefficient of determination larger than 0.9942), limits of detection (0.15–0.30 ng g −1 , S/N of 3), limits of quantification (0.50–1.00 ng g −1 , S/N = 10), method recoveries (78.4–121 %) and repeatability (relative standard deviation < 11 %). It can be used as an efficient method to detect trace phenolic EDCs in real fish samples.
