Many regions use treated wastewater for agricultural irrigation, aquaculture, and other activities. However, in recent years, wastewater has been found to contain large amounts of pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs). Therefore, there is a potential risk of PPCPs being transported in the environment and affecting human health. In this study, we compared the uptake, transport, and accumulation of 27 PPCPs in three types of sprouts (radish, buckwheat, and okra).The bioaccumulation of amantadine, diphenhydramine, chlorpheniramine maleate, sibutramine, hemosibutramine, chlorosibutramine, N-monomethyl sibutramine, N, N-desmethyl sibutramine, and carbamazepine was found to be significantly higher in plants grown for 12 days in media containing 0.5, 5.0, and 50.0 ng\/mL PPCPs. With increasing concentration of PPCPs in the culture solution, the amount of PPCPs absorbed by plants and the degree of accumulation also showed an increasing trend. At the same time, it was demonstrated that there was an obvious uptake transfer phenomenon of PPCPs by plants, and the trend of uptake transfer became more and more obvious as the concentration of external environmental pollutants increased. In addition, amantadine, chlorpheniramine maleate, carbamazepine, N, N-desmethyl sibutramine, hemosibutramine, and chlorosibutramine showed more active translocation in some plants (TF &gt; 1.0).<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ijerph192315840","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,11,28]],"date-time":"2022-11-28T07:38:49Z","timestamp":1669621129000},"page":"15840","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":16,"title":["Uptake and Transport of Different Concentrations of PPCPs by Vegetables"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"19","author":[{"given":"Yongfu","family":"Zeng","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Public Health, Hebei Medical University, Shijiazhuang 050017, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yiming","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Wellington Livestock Pty.
