The arsenic species present in samples of the crayfish Procambarus clarkii caught in the area affected by the toxic mine‐tailing spill at Aznalcóllar (Seville, Southern Spain) were analyzed. The total arsenic contents ranged between 1.2 and 8.5 µg g?1 dry mass (DM). With regard to the different species of arsenic, the highest concentrations were for inorganic arsenic (0.34–5.4 µg g?1 DM), whereas arsenobetaine, unlike the situation found in marine fish products, was not the major arsenic species (0.16 ± 0.09 µg g?1 DM). Smaller concentrations were found of arsenosugars 1a (0.18 ± 0.11 µg g?1 DM), 1b (0.077 ± 0.049 µg g?1 DM), 1c (0.080 ± 0.089 µg g?1 DM), and 1d (0.14 ± 0.13 µg g?1 DM). The presence of two unknown arsenic species was revealed (U1: 0.058 ± 0.058 µg g?1 DM; U2: 0.12 ± 0.12 µg g?1 DM). No significant differences were seen with respect to the total arsenic contents between the sexes. However, significant differences in the total arsenic contents were revealed between the area affected by the spill and the area not affected, the contents being greater in the affected area.

Arsenic species in arsenic accumulating mush- rooms (Sarcosphaera coronaria, Laccaria amethystina, Sarcodon imbricatum, Entoloma lividum, Agaricus haemorrhoidaius, Agaricus placomyces, Lycoperdon perlatum) were determined. HPLC/ICP MS and ion-exchange chromatogra- phy–instrumental neutron activation analysis (NAA) combinations were used. The remarkable accumulator Sarcosphaera coronaria (up to 2000 mg As kg?1 dry wt) contained only methylarsonic acid, Entoloma lividum only arsenite and arsenate. In Laccaria amethystina dimethylarsinic acid was the major arsenic compound. Sarcodon imbricatum and the two Agaricus sp. were found to contain arsenobetaine as the major arsenic species, a form which had previously been found only in marine biota. Its identification was confirmed by electron impact MS.  相似文献

The concentrations of total arsenic and arsenic species in the complete organism of the crayfish Procambarus clarkii and its various parts (hepatopancreas, tail, and remaining parts) were analyzed in order to discover the distribution of arsenic and its species. With this information it will be possible to establish where the chemical forms of this metalloid tend to accumulate and what risks may derive from the contents and species present in the edible parts of this crustacean. The total arsenic content in the complete organism and in the various parts analyzed ranged from 2.5 to 12 µg g?1 dry mass (DM), with inorganic arsenic representing 18 to 34% of total arsenic. The arsenical composition varied according to the part of the crayfish considered. The hepatopancreas had the highest levels of total arsenic (9.2–12 µg g?1 DM) and inorganic arsenic (2.7–3.2 µg g?1 DM). The tail (edible part) had the lowest levels of both total arsenic (2.5–2.6 µg g?1 DM) and inorganic arsenic (0.46–0.64 µg g?1 DM). The predominant organoarsenical species were the dimethylarsinoylribosides: glycerol riboside in the hepatopancreas, sulfate riboside in the tail, and sulfonate and phosphate ribosides in the remaining parts.

We calculated the intake of each chemical species of dietary arsenic by typical Japanese, and determined urinary and blood levels of each chemical species of arsenic. The mean total arsenic intake by 35 volunteers was 195±235 (15.8-1039) μg As day?1, composed of 76% trimethylated arsenic (TMA), 17.3% inorganic arsenic (Asi), 5.8% dimethylated arsenic (DMA), and 0.8% monomethylated arsenic (MA): the intake of TMA was the largest of all the measured species. Intake of Asi characteristically and invariably occurred in each meal. Of the intake of Asi, 45-75% was methylated in vivo to form MA and DMA, and excreted in these forms into urine. The mean measured urinary total arsenic level in 56 healthy volunteers was 129±92.0 μg As dm?3, composed of 64.6% TMA, 26.7% DMA, 6.7% Asi and 2.2% MA. The mean blood total arsenic level in the 56 volunteers was 0.73±0.57 μg dl?1, composed of 73% TMA, 14% DMA and 9.6% Asi. The urinary TMA levels proved to be significantly correlated with the whole-blood TMA levels (r = 0.376; P<0.01).  相似文献

Arsenic circulation in an arsenic-rich freshwater ecosystem was elucidated to detect arsenic species in the river water and in biological samples living in the freshwater environment. Water-soluble arsenic compounds in biological samples were extracted with 70% methanol. Samples containing arsenic compounds in the extracts were treated with 2 mol dm3 of sodium hydroxide and reduced with sodium borohydride. The detection of arsenic species was accomplished using a hydride generation/cold trap/cryofocus/gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (HG/CT/CF/GC-MS) system. The major arsenic species in the river water, freshwater algae and fish are inorganic arsenic, dimethylarsenic and trimethylarsenic compounds, respectively. Trimethylarsenic compounds are also detected in aquatic macro-invertebrates. The freshwater unicellular alga Chlorella vulgaris, in a growth medium containing arsenate, accumulated arsenic and converted it to a dimethylarsenic compound. The water flea Daphnia magna, which was fed on arsenic-containing algae, converted it to a trimethylarsenic species. © 1997 by John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.  相似文献

In this study the accumulation and distribution of arsenic compounds in marine fish species in relation to their trophic position was investigated. Arsenic compounds were measured in eight tissues of mullet Mugil cephalus (detritivore), luderick Girella tricuspidata (herbivore) and tailor Pomatomus saltatrix (carnivore) by high performance liquid chromatography–inductively coupled plasma‐mass spectrometry. The majority of arsenic in tailor tissues, the pelagic carnivore, was present as arsenobetaine (86–94%). Mullet and luderick also contained high amounts of arsenobetaine in all tissues (62–98% and 59–100% respectively) except the intestines (20% and 24% respectively). Appreciable amounts of dimethylarsinic acid (1–39%), arsenate (2–38%), arsenite (1–9%) and trimethylarsine oxide (2–8%) were identified in mullet and luderick tissues. Small amounts of arsenocholine (1–3%), methylarsonic acid (1–3%) and tetramethylarsonium ion (1–2%) were found in some tissues of all three species. A phosphate arsenoriboside was identified in mullet intestine (4%) and from all tissues of luderick (1–6%) except muscle. Pelagic carnivore fish species are exposed mainly to arsenobetaine through their diet and accumulate the majority of arsenic in tissues as this compound. Detritivore and herbivore fish species also accumulate arsenobetaine from their diet, with quantities of other inorganic and organic arsenic compounds. These compounds may result from ingestion of food and sediment, degradation products (e.g. arsenobetaine to trimethylarsine oxide; arsenoribosides to dimethylarsinic acid), conversion (e.g. arsenate to dimethylarsinic acid and trimethylarsine oxide by bacterial action in digestive tissues) and/or in situ enzymatic activity in liver tissue.

We examine the in vitro immunotoxicity of synthetically pure arsenobetaine [AsBe; trimethyl (carboxymethyl) arsonium zwitterion], which is a major organic arsenic compound in seafood, on various human immune cells, such as peripheral blood monocytes, monocyte‐derived macrophages and monocyte‐derived dendritic cells (DCs). In particular, we examine the differentiation of monocytes into macrophages or DCs by comparing the effects of AsBe with those pentavalent inorganic arsenate. AsBe neither enhanced nor inhibited the differentiation of human monocytes into macrophages or DCs, and also did not affect their various immune functions. Furthermore, AsBe had no cytolethality in monocyte‐derived macrophages or DCs even at a concentration of 5 mmol l−1. In contrast, inorganic arsenate showed strong cytolethality in these human immune cells in vitro at micromolar concentrations. These data indicate that the organic arsenic compound AsBe in seafood has no in vitro immunotoxicity in human immune cells. Copyright © 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.  相似文献

Tolerance bioaccumulation and biotransformation of arsenic compounds by a freshwater prawn (Macrobrachium rosenbergii) were investigated. M. rosenbergii was exposed to 10, 20, 30 and 35 μg As cm−3 of disodium arsenate [abbreviated as As(V)], 25, 50, 100 and 120 μg As cm−3 of methylarsonic acid (MMAA), or 100,200, 300 and 350 μg As cm−3 of dimethylarsinic acid (DMAA). Tolerances (50% lethal concentration: LC50) of the prawn against As(V), MMAA, and DMAA were 30, 100, and 300 μg As cm−3, respectively. The prawn accumulated arsenic compounds directly from aqueous phase and biotransformed them in part. Both methylation and demethylation of the arsenicals were observed in vivo. Highly methylated and less toxic arsenicals were less accumulated in M. rosenbergii.  相似文献

Humans are exposed via air, water and food to a number of different arsenic compounds, the physical, chemical, and toxicological properties of which may vary considerably. In people eating much fish and shellfish the intake of organic arsenic compounds, mainly arsenobetaine, may exceed 1000 μg As per day, while the average daily intake of inorganic arsenic is in the order of 10–20 μg in most countries. Arsenobetaine, and most other arsenic compounds in food of marine origin, e.g. arsenocholine, trimethylarsine oxide and methylarsenic acids, are rapidly excreted in the urine and there seem to be only minor differences in metabolism between animal species. Trivalent inorganic arsenic (AsIII) is the main form of arsenic interacting with tissue constituents, due to its strong affinity for sulfhydryl groups. However, a substantial part of the absorbed AsIII is methylated in the body to less reactive metabolities, methylarsonic acid (MMA) and dimethylarsinic acid (DMA), which are rapidly excreted in the urine. All the different steps in the arsenic biotransformation in mammals have not yet been elucidated, but it seems likely that the methylation takes place mainly in the liver by transfer of methyl groups from S-adenosylmethionine to arsenic in its trivalent oxidation state. A substantial part of absorbed arsenate (AsV) is reduced to AsIII before being methylated in the liver. There are marked species differences in the methylation of inorganic arsenic. In most animal species DMA is the main metabolite. Compared with human subjects, very little MMA is produced. The marmoset monkey is the only species which has been shown unable to methylate inorganic arsenic. In contrast to other species, the rat shows a marked binding of DMA to the hemoglobin, which results in a low rate of urinary excretion of arsenic.  相似文献

Water-soluble arsenic compounds were extracted with methanol/water (1:1, v/v) from various species of bivalves and also from certified reference materials (NIES No. 6, mussel tissue, and NBS 1566, oyster tissue). The extracts were analyzed with a high-performance liquid chromatograph combined with an inductively coupled argon plasma mass spectrometer serving as an arsenic-specific detector. A certified reference material (NIES No. 6) was used to check the reproducibility of the analysis. The relative standard deviations (RSDs) of the peak area of major arsenic compounds among repeated measurements (n = 6) on the same extrct were less than 3.3%, indicating good reproducibility of the technique. The RSDs of some peaks among measurements of independent extracts, on the other hand, were more than 10%, possibly reflecting the heterogeneity of the sample in terms of the chemical species under the present experimental conditions. In many of the samples analyzed in the present study, two arsenic-containing ribofuranosides were detected in addition to arsenobetaine. A compound bearing a glycerophosphoryl glycerol moiety was dominant in such cases. Interestingly, a bivalve living in an estuary (Corbicula japonica) did not contain a detectable amount of arsenobetaine though it had arsenic-containing ribofuranosides. The distribution of arsenic species in the various parts of a clam (Meretrix lusoria) and a mussel (Mytilus coruscum) was also analyzed.  相似文献

The aim of this study was to investigate the potential impact of a coal combustion power plant in the northern part of Vietnam with regard to elemental pollution on the surrounding environment. Freshwater fishes (Clarias fucus) were sampled both at a site exposed to the emissions of the power plant and at a reference site seemingly free from industrial activities. The elemental concentrations in muscle and liver tissue were analyzed using total-reflection X-ray fluorescence and atomic absorption spectroscopy. A comparison of muscle tissue with International Standards (Food and Agricultural Organization) showed that the fishes from both sites did not constitute any health risk for human consumers with regard to the elements Cu, Zn, As, Se, Cd, Pb and Cr. Generally, concentration differences between sites were found to be small in the edible tissue. Compared to the muscle tissue, concentrations of metals were elevated in the liver. The elemental concentrations of P, S, K, Ca, Fe, Mn, Zn and Pb were significantly higher in the hepatic tissue from the exposed site, suggesting—together with measurements of airborne pollutants—emissions from the power plant as a probable source of these elements.  相似文献

Arsenic accumulated in living Chlorella vulgaris cells was solvent-fractionated with chloroform/methanol (2:1), and the fractions were analyzed for arsenic. A large part of the accumulated arsenic was localized in the extract residues. The extract residue from the same extraction of C. vulgaris, which had been, however, cultured in any arsenic-free Detmer medium (MD), adsorbed arsenic physico-chemically at a concentration of 1.1 mg As g?1 dry weight. Arsenic was found to be combined with protein with molecular weight around 3000 in the arsenicaccumulated living cells. The arsenic-bound protein was analyzed for amino acids. The experimental results showed that no metallothionein-like protein was inductively biosynthesized in C. vulgaris on the exposure to arsenic.  相似文献

The research object was the liquid protein hydrolysate “AGROMOREE” from the rainbow trout, which was provided by the company “Russian Aquaculture LLC”. The purpose of this study was the evaluation of the effect of the hydrolysate “AGROMOREE” as a biostimulant on the growth and yield of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). Biometric indicators of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) growth were determined in the laboratory and in field tests. In the laboratory, the liquid concentrated hydrolysate was dried to facilitate its use. “AGROMOREE” promoted an increase in germination of 2–4% in all samples compared to the control samples, as well as an increase in the length and number of wheat roots. The biostimulant “AGROMOREE” was introduced in the soil in liquid form at about 3000 L/ha and 4000 L/ha in the field tests. This study showed that “ARGOMOREE” contributed to an increase in the length and quantity of wheat ears, the quantity of grains in the ear and the seed weight. At the same time, the quantity of productive stems increased, so that the biostimulant “AGROMOREE” increased the productivity by 3.9–6.3% with respect to the control sample. In general, using the biostimulant “AGROMOREE” on spring wheat seeds from 2019 in the growing season of 2021 provided an increase in yield from 0.21 t/ha to 0.28 t/ha. The maximum value of raw gluten content in the seed was 5.2%, higher than the content in the control. The content of the mass fraction of protein in the seed was in the range of 12.33–12.56%, i.e., 2% higher than that of the control sample. Thus, according to qualitative and quantitative indicators and the total productivity indicators, the biostimulant «AGROMOREE» can be used to increase wheat productivity and reduce the use of nitrogen fertilizers.  相似文献

Non-chromatographic speciation of toxic arsenic in fish   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
A rapid, sensitive and economic method has been developed for the direct determination of toxic species of arsenic present in fish and mussel samples. As(III), As(V), dimethylarsinic acid (DMA), and monomethylarsonic acid (MMA) were determined by hydride generation-atomic fluorescence spectrometry using a series of proportional equations without the need of a chromatographic previous separation. The method is based on the extraction of arsenic species from fish through sonication with HNO3 3 mol l−1 and 0.1% (m/v) Triton and washing of the solid phase with 0.1% (m/v) EDTA, followed by direct measurement of the corresponding hydrides in four different experimental conditions. The limit of detection of the method was 0.62 ng g−1 for As(III), 2.1 ng g−1 for As(V), 1.8 ng g−1 for MMA and 5.4 ng g−1 for DMA, in all cases expressed in terms of sample dry weight. The mean relative standard deviation values (R.S.D.) in actual sample analysis were: 6.8% for As(III), 10.3% for As(V), 8.5% for MMA and 7.4% for DMA at concentration levels from 0.08 mg kg−1 As(III) to 1.3 mg kg−1 DMA. Recovery studies provided percentages greater than 93% for all species in spiked samples. The analysis of SRM DORM-2 and CRM 627 certified materials evidenced that the method is suitable for the accurate determination of arsenic species in fish.  相似文献

Total arsenic concentrations and the concentrations of individual arsenic compounds were determined in liver samples of pinnipeds [nine ringed seals (Phoca hispida), one bearded seal (Erginathus barbatus)] and cetaceans [two pilot whales (Globicephalus melas), one beluga whale (Deliphinapterus leucus)]. Total arsenic concentrations ranged from 0.167 to 2.40 mg As kg−1 wet mass. The arsenic compounds extracted from the liver samples with a methanol/water mixture (9:1, v/v) were identified and quantified by anion- and cation-exchange chromatography. An ICP–MS equipped with a hydraulic high-pressure nebulizer served as the arsenic-specific detector. Arsenobetaine (0.052–1.67 mg As kg−1 wet mass) was the predominant arsenic compound in all the liver samples. Arsenocholine was present in all livers (0.005–0.044 mg As kg−1 wet mass). The tetramethylarsonium cation was detected in all pinnipeds ( < 0.009 to 0.043 mg As kg−1) but not in any of the cetaceans. The concentration of dimethylarsinic acid ranged from < 0.001 to 0.109 mg As kg−1 wet mass. Most of the concentrations for methylarsonic acid ( < 0.001 to 0.025 mg As kg−1 wet mass) were below the detection limit. Arsenous acid and arsenic acid concentrations were below the detection limit of the method (0.001 mg As kg−1). An unknown arsenic compound was present in all liver samples at concentrations from 0.002–0.027 mg As kg−1. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.  相似文献

Arsenic-tolerant freshwater alga Chlorella vulgaris which had been collected from an arsenicpolluted environment were tested for uptake and excretion of inorganic arsenic. Approximately half the quantity of arsenic taken up by C. vulgaris was estimated to be adhered to the extraneous coat (10 wt %) of the cell. The remainder was bioaccumulated by the cell. Both adhered and accumulated arsenic concentrations increased with an increase in arsenic(V) concentration of the aqueous phase. Arsenic(V) accumulation was affected by the growth phse: arsenic was most actively accumulated when the cell was exposed to arsenic during the early exponential phase and then accumulation decreased with an increase in culture time exposed to arsenic. The alga grew well in the modified Detmer (MD) medium containing 1 mg As(III) dm?3 and the growth curve was approximated by a ‘logistic equation’. Arsenic(III) was accumulated up to the second day of the culture time and arsenic(III) accumulation decreased with an increase in the culture time after that. Arsenic accumulation was also largely affected by various nutrients, especially by managanese, iron and phosphorus compounds. A modified MD medium with the three nutrients was proposed for the purpose of effective removal of arsenic from the aqueous phase. Using radioactive arsenate (Na2H74AsO4), the arsenic accumulated was found to be readily excreted under conditions which were unfavourable for the multiplication of C. vulgaris.  相似文献

Blue mussels (Mytilus edulis) were exposed to 100 μg As dm?3 in the form of arsenite, arsenate, methylarsonic acid, dimethylarsinic acid, arsenobetaine, arsenocholine, trimethylarsine oxide, tetramethylarsonium iodide or dimethyl-(2-hydroxyethyl)arsine oxide in seawater for 10 days. The seawater was renewed and spiked with the arsenic compounds daily. Analyses of water samples taken 24 h after spiking showed that arsenobetaine and arsenocholine had been converted to trimethylarsine oxide, whereas trimethylarsine oxide and tetramethylarsonium iodide were unchanged. Arsenobetaine was accumulated by mussels most efficienty, followed in efficiency by arsenocholine and tetramethylarsonium iodide. None of the other arsenic compounds was significantly accumulated by the mussels. Extraction of mussel tissues with methanol revealed that control mussels contained arsenobetaine, a dimethyl-(5-ribosyl)arsine oxide and an additional arsenic compound, possibly dimethylarsinic acid. Mussels exposed to arsenobetaine contained almost all their experimentally accumulated arsenic as arsenobetaine, and mussels exposed to tetramethylarsonium iodide contained it as the tetramethylarsonium compound. Mussels exposed to arsenocholine had arsenobetaine as the major arsenic compound and glycerylphosphorylarsenocholine as a minor arsenic compound in their tissues. The results show that arsenobetaine and arsenocholine are efficiently accumulated from seawater by blue mussels and that in both cases the accumulated arsenic is present in the tissues as arsenobetaine. Consequently arsenobetaine and/or arsenocholine present at very low concentrations in seawater may be responsible for the presence of arsenobetaine in M. edulis and probably also among other marine animals. The quantity of arsenobetaine accumulated by the mussels decreases with increasing concentrations of betaine. HPLC-ICP-MS was found to be very powerful for the investigation of the metabolism of arsenic compounds in biological systems.  相似文献

Sheep on the island of North Ronaldsay (Orkney, UK) feed mostly on seaweed, which contains high concentrations of dimethylated arsenoribosides. Wool of these sheep contains dimethylated, monomethylated and inorganic arsenic, in addition to unidentified arsenic species in unbound and complexed form. Chromatographic techniques using different separation mechanisms and detectors enabled us to identify five arsenic species in water extracts of wool. The wool contained 5.2 ± 2.3 µg arsenic per gram wool. About 80% of the arsenic in wool was extracted by boiling the wool with water. The main species is dimethylarsenic, which accounted for about 75 to 85%, monomethylated arsenic at about 5% and the rest is inorganic arsenic. Depending on the separation method and condition, the chromatographic recovery of arsenic species was between 45% for the anion exchange column, 68% for the size exclusion chromatography (SEC) and 82% for the cation exchange column. The SEC revealed the occurrence of two unknown arsenic compounds, of which one was probably a high molecular mass species. Since chromatographic recovery can be improved by either treating the extract with CuCl/HCl (CAT: 90%) or longer storage of the sample (CAT: 105%), in particular for methylated arsenic species, it can be assumed that labile arsenic–protein‐like coordination species occur in the extract, which cannot be speciated with conventional chromatographic methods. It is clear from our study of sheep wool that there can be different kinds of ‘hidden’ arsenic in biological matrices, depending on the extraction, separation and detection methods used. Hidden species can be defined as species that are not recordable by the detection system, not extractable or do not elute from chromatographic columns.
