Neonicotinoids are a group of insecticides developed in the 1980s, reaching extensive use in agriculture in the 1990s due to their effectiveness against pests in various types of crops. In 2014, their use reached 25% of the global market. In the last decade, studies on their possible effects have been conducted, leading to bans and regulations in several European Union countries. Their persistence in soil and water can result in chronic exposure in aquatic and terrestrial organisms, including pollinator species. The accumulation of these compounds in the environment can disrupt ecosystems and affect the health of humans, plants, and animals. This review presents current knowledge on neonicotinoids, their mechanisms of action, and their transport in ecological spheres. Their presence in water and soil is evidenced, with specific concentrations reported in various regions. Their effects on non-target organisms, including aquatic animals and humans, can be negative, causing direct and indirect neurological and renal problems after exposure. More research is needed on the long-term effects on health and non-target organisms to fully understand the implications of these insecticides. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
