Food contamination with mycotoxins has caused concern nationally and internationally because of its potential genotoxic and carcinogenic effects, and also the possible additive or synergistic effects that may result from their combination in the same food. Monitoring of mycotoxins in foods is extremely important for public health, aimed at the adoption of technological measures in order t…
Due to the expansion of intensive aquaculture the use of drugs is growing in aquacultures activities. The use of anti-infective (antibiotic and antimicrobial) in Brazilian aquaculture is relatively recent. On the other hand, the excessive use of these compounds as chimiotherapeutic prophylaxis and growth promoters in aquaculture builds a framework of uncertainties and risks to public heal…
Brazil is the largest exporter of chicken meat and the major solid waste is poultry litter, which is commonly used as agricultural fertilizer. This solid waste can contain significant amounts of antibiotics generally causing an environmental impact, little investigated until now. Currently, norfloxacin is the main antibiotic used in farms. Therefore, the objective of this study is to cond…

Pre-emergent herbicides are applied targeted to the soil. The processes of retention, transport and degradation regulate the availability of these molecules in the environment. Microorganisms are responsible for processes essential for crop establishment, such as the decomposition of organic matter, biological nitrogen fixation, and nutrient cycling. They are also the main agents of herbi…
The increase in population and the fragility of food supply in the world population indicate the need for increased agricultural production. Weed infestation reduces crop yields and has glyphosate as the most widely used herbicide worldwide for managing this weed community. A diversity of weed species show different levels of susceptibility to glyphosate and has not been effectively contr…
Environmental pollution by plastics and microplastics is considered one of the most alarming and relevant anthropogenic factors that affect biodiversity, being considered a significant global problem. Besides that, emerging contaminants can adsorb to microplastic particles, forming complex compounds that can contaminate water resources used to obtain drinking water, in addition to causing…

Increasing yield, reduction on expanses with agricultural suplies and controll erosive process are benefits that the no-tillage system (NTS) take to producer and environment. Among the limitations of no-tillage system it's possible to highlight the straw quantity to significantly weed control and the pre-emergent herbicide interceptation due the straw. The herbicides interceptation analys…
This research project aims to identify chemical markers and generate data based on wastewater epidemiology in order to obtain population-level information on behavior and public health during the COVID-19 pandemic in the São Paulo State. The presence of drugs used for treatment of COVID-19, psychotropic drugs and substances present in cleaning and personal care products will be evaluated …
Microplastics, plastic particles smaller than 5mm, are easily found in aquatic ecosystems and can be ingested by a wide variety of organisms, such as fish. The lambari-do-rabo-amarelo is a microphagous fish that feeds on microscopic beings and particles, becoming susceptible to the ingestion of microplastics in the environment. In addition, the lambari-do-rabo-amarelo has great economic a…

The environmental pollution by organic contaminants of anthropogenic origin can cause negative impact on human health, and the development of tools for the assessment of human exposure to these substances are necessary. The neonicotinoids are pesticides globally used for the control of insects, and negative effects on human health and the environment have been reported. Humans are exposed…
The development of nanopesticides has gained prominence among the applications of nanotechnology in agriculture. In particular, gains in efficiency, active ingredient protection, and targeted delivery of pesticides are the main highlights and recent discoveries in this area. Investigations of environmental behavior and regulatory issues, including effects on non-target organisms, cultures…
Considering the large-scale use of herbicides and the focus on reducing the use of these chemicals has been a challenge for agriculture. The advance in the development of nanoformulations for the delivery of pesticides has grown in agriculture. These nanoformulations have demonstrated potential for agricultural use by promoting the controlled release and protection of active ingredients, …
Herbicides represent the most used class of pesticides in the world. Reducing the amount of herbicide application without reducing its effectiveness is a significant challenge in agriculture. As it is necessary to increase food production in a sustainable way, new technologies that allow the rational use of pesticides is necessary. Developing nanotechnology strategies for the formulation …
The mixture of herbicides is a widely used technique in weed control in various crops such as maize. However, this type of interaction resulting mixture is a matter of constant concern and research, particularly of the herbicide in the soil retention capacity that directly influences the final destination of these molecules in the environment. The many advantageous properties of biochar h…
