BTO 2015.062 | October 2015 Datamining in non-target chemical screeningsdata BTO Managementsamenvatting Suspect screening met verdere identificatie ondersteunt opsporing nieuwe antropogene stoffen in brede screeningsdata Auteur(s) Rosa Sjerps MSc; ing. Dennis Vughs; dr.ir. Dirk Vries; dr. Thomas ter Laak; ing. Ton van Leerdam Suspect screening is in staat om betere toegang te verschaffen tot de omvangrijke databestanden met meerdere jaren aan LC-MS-gegevens over (voornamelijk onbekende) microverontreinigingen. Dat blijkt uit onderzoek naar snellere en effectievere verwerking van de bulk aan brede screeningsdata voor het ontsluiten van informatie over relevante antropogene stoffen. De aanpak biedt kansen voor toekomstig waterkwaliteitsonderzoek met behulp van brede screeningsmethoden. Daarnaast laat de dataset significante verschillen zien tussen de monsters van uiteenlopende watertypen: het aantal stoffen, de somconcentratie en de gemiddelde retentietijd bij chromatografische analyse. Met Principle Component Analysis en een statistische clusteringsmethode konden suspects naar chemische eigenschap worden gegroepeerd. De gebruikte methodiek bleek echter niet geschikt om uit de huidige dataset clusters te vinden die relateren aan watertype of het voorkomen in water. Voor verdere data-analyse wordt aanbevolen om de zekerheid van de stofidentiteit te verhogen en een kleinere set van typische chemische eigenschappen (expert- of data-gedreven) te selecteren. 100 10 1 0.1 0.01 0.001 Somconcentratie (ug/l IS-eq) EFF (n=17) OW (n=73) GW (n=39) DW (n=20) Watertype De verschillen in somconcentratie van de stoffen per monster (in interne standaard equivalenten) tussen de verschillende watertypen.

The liquid chromatography-high resolution mass spectrometry (LC-HRMS) analysis is a more comprehensive method for broad screening water quality than the commonly used target analysis (Ter Laak., 2010) and provides qualitative information on a broad spectrum of chemicals present in the water samples. However, the identification and quantification of all observed compounds remains challenging. The collected large set of water quality monitoring data contains much information on the presence of chemicals. In the last years, over 150 samples were analysed of waste water effluent, surface water, groundwater and drinking water samples all over The Netherlands. Besides the presence of chemicals, this large dataset contains information on the occurrence of chemicals related to geographical setting, hydrology and land use. However, uncertainties on identification and quantification of compounds make it hard to distil relevant information and obtain knowledge on water quality (Hogenboom et al., 2009). Therefore, in this study we extract information from the derived data in non-target chemical screening. The study is divided in two phases. The first phase deals with the selection of potential candidates for identification of chemicals using suspect screening. The second phase links the occurrence of compounds to different water types. In the first phase we extract most relevant information from the non-target screening LC- HRMS dataset. Therefore we use software to study the presence of compounds in the samples through the years. The identification of the compounds is based on ‘suspect screening’, a recently developed tool to link peaks of an exact mass in chromatograms to known molecular formulas of suspect chemicals. The size of the suspects screening makes this study unique; the study is performed with 5219 suspects, represented by chemicals on the European market, and LC-HRMS screening data of 151 water samples. This tool focusses on the presence of anthropogenic compounds and has the advantage to make a selection of potential relevant compounds being produced at large scale or containing toxic properties. The second phase focusses on the relation between the presence or absence of (groups of) compounds and the water types. First it is studied if the water types (waste water effluent, surface, groundwater and drinking water) show different characteristics for chromatographical parameters (retention time, total concentration). Second, multivariate statistical methods are used to obtain information on the chemical properties of compounds present in different water types. This last method can be considered as a try-out for the application of multivariate statistics in suspect screening results.

  • Factors Influencing Pesticide Resistance in Psylla Pyricola Foerster and Susceptibility Inits Mirid
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF: Hugo E. van de Baan for the degree ofDoctor of Philosopbv in Entomology presented on September 29, 181. Title: Factors Influencing Pesticide Resistance in Psylla pyricola Foerster and Susceptibility inits Mirid Predator, Deraeocoris brevis Knight. Redacted for Privacy Abstract approved: Factors influencing pesticide susceptibility and resistance were studied in Psylla pyricola Foerster, and its mirid predator, Deraeocoris brevis Knight in the Rogue River Valley, Oregon. Factors studied were at the biochemical, life history, and population ecology levels. Studies on detoxification enzymes showed that glutathione S-transferase and cytochrome P-450 monooxygenase activities were ca. 1.6-fold higherin susceptible R. brevis than in susceptible pear psylla, however, esterase activity was ca. 5-fold lower. Esterase activity was ca. 18-fold higher in resistant pear psylla than in susceptible D. brevis, however, glutathione S-transferase and cytochrome P-450 monooxygenase activities were similar. Esterases seem to be a major factor conferring insecticideresistance in P. Pvricola. Although the detoxification capacities of P. rivricola and D. brevis were quite similar, pear psylla has developed resistance to many insecticides in the Rogue River Valley, whereas D. brevis has remained susceptible. Biochemical factors may be important in determining the potential of resistance development, however, they are less important in determining the rate at which resistance develops. Computer simulation studies showed that life history and ecological factors are probably of greater importancein determining the rate at which resistance develops in P. pvricola and D. brevis. High fecundity and low immigration of susceptible individuals into selected populations appear to be major factors contributing to rapid resistance development in pear psylla compared with D.

Koeppe, Kelly K. Ferguson, Justin A. Colacino, John D. Meeker ⁎ Department of Environmental Health Sciences, University of Michigan School of Public Health, Ann Arbor, MI, United States HIGHLIGHTS ► Triclosan and parabens are widely used in the US and elsewhere. ► Biomarkers of exposure were examined in relation to serum thyroid hormone levels. ► In adults, we observed inverse associations between parabens and thyroid hormones. ► In adolescents, we observed positive associations between triclosan and total T3. ► Future research is necessary to confirm findings and explore clinical relevance. article info abstract Article history: Triclosan and parabens are broad spectrum antimicrobials used in a range of consumer products. In vitro and Received 28 September 2012 animal studies have suggested the potential for these compounds to disrupt thyroid function, though studies Received in revised form 17 December 2012 in humans have been limited.

We conducted an exploratory, cross-sectional analysis of data on urinary biomarkers of triclosan and paraben exposure and serum thyroid measures obtained from 1831 subjects (ages≥12 years) as part of the Keywords: – Biomarkers 2007 2008 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES).
