Abstract:
Pesticides exert a long-term negative influence on the aquatic organism and even the aquatic environment. It is necessary to find some potential biomarkers to give insight into the pesticides pollution and provide a rapid, sensitive, early-warning method. In this study, ultra-performance liquid chromatography with quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometry(UPLC-QTOF-MS) was applied to analyze the effect of pesticides on the metabolomics in liver and brain of Crucian carp. Three pesticides, namely trichlorfon, β-cypermethrin and imidacloprid were investigated, respectively. Data was collected by masslynx software in MSE mode, analyzed by UNIFI software for automatic detection and data filtering, compared to the online metabolome database. The metabolic difference of liver was more significant than that of the brain. The triglycerides(TGs) species were identified as the different metabolites. Among these three pesticides, imidacloprid had the most significant influence on the metabolism of TGs. The low concentration of acute exposure induced the accumulation of TGs in the liver, and the relationship between the content and the exposure concentration was in line with the growth trend of Michaelis-Menten equation. The results showed that TGs can sensitively reflect the low concentration exposure of imidacloprid pesticides(≤ 20 ng/mL) in a short period of time(≤ 2 h), which can be used as a potential biomarker to investigate the toxicity of imidacloprid to aquatic organisms, and help to establish a new method for estimation the pesticides contamination in aquatic environment. © 2020, Higher Education Press.
