“…Their continuous introduction in the marine ecosystem means that these compounds could be accumulated in fish [16,17] and other marine organisms [18,19], even reaching trophic levels as high as marine mammals through the food chain [18,20]. BUVSs have been described as mutagenics, toxics, pseudo-persistents and bioaccumulative and could also pose significant estrogenic activity.…”

Abstract:The occurrence of organic micropollutants (OMPs) in the environment is a global concern due to their potential ecological risks. Several studies have shown that some OMPs are widely detected in environmental matrices such as surface water and sewage. Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) have received international attention over past decades because they are considered the greatest source of aquatic environmental contamination by anthropogenic micropollutants. Intensive sampling and analysis have been globally made to improve understanding of the occurrence, behavior and fate of OMPs in WWTPs using different types of analytical approach. Recently, special awareness has been devoted to developing new effective strategies to extract the micropollutants of wastewater. In particular, microextraction protocols have gained popularity because of their simplicity, low cost and in-field application for environmental analysis. Among these, fabric phase sorptive extraction (FPSE) is reported as an excellent approach due to its properties, not only reducing the required time but also employing minor solvent volume. In this overview, we summarize the results obtained by the Research Group of Environmental Chemical Analysis of the University of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria (Spain) using this technique. Its aim is to show the potential of FPSE for the extraction of some micropollutants, such as personal care products (benzotriazole ultraviolet stabilizers (BUVSs)) and pharmaceuticals (steroid hormones and cytostatic compounds) in different liquid samples, prior to their determination by liquid chromatography.

“…BUVSs have been widely detected in fish, aquatic birds, and macroinvertebrates from Japanese coastal waters, Manila Bay, Philippines, as well as in other water systems (Kim et al, 2011b(Kim et al, , 2011cLu et al, 2016;Nakata et al, 2010Nakata et al, , 2012Wick et al, 2016). Additionally, BUVSs have been reported in human breast milk (Lee et al, 2015), adipose tissue , as well as urine (Asimakopoulos et al, , 2013b, suggesting that there is internal exposure to these compounds and that they are being actively metabolized and excreted.…”

h i g h l i g h t sBUVSs decreased heart rate of zebrafish in all treatments by 6.9%e21.4%. BUVSs affected transcriptional levels of HPT axis-related genes. Disruption of thyroid-related transcripts was dependent on the structure of BUVSs. Gene networks and pathways were predicted using IMP. a r t i c l e i n f o a b s t r a c tBenzotriazole ultraviolet stabilizers (BUVSs) are widely used in industrial products as well as personalhygiene products to protect the material or skin from harmful UV-radiation. Due to their persistence and bioaccumulation, BUVSs have been ubiquitously detected in aquatic environments. Although the toxicological effects of BUVSs in aquatic organisms have been previously examined, the effects of BUVSs on the thyroid system have not been adequately addressed. In this study, we assessed putative thyroid disrupting effects of BUVSs (UV-234, UV-326, UV-329 and UV-P) in zebrafish embryos at 1, 10 and 100 mg/L for 96 h. The heart rate was assessed in zebrafish and was observed to be decreased by 6.9% e21.4% in exposure of tested BUVSs. We also observed that the transcript levels of HPT axis-related genes were affected by the 4 BUVSs tested in different ways. Specifically, mRNA levels of thyroid hormone receptors (thraa and thrb) in zebrafish embryos were differentially expressed and the direction of change in these transcripts was isoform and BUVSs dependent. Pathway analysis of the targeted genes measured indicated that cellular processes putatively affected by BUVSs included response to organic substance, regulation of transcription from RNA polymerase II promoter, intracellular receptor signaling pathway, and hypothyroidism. Upon expansion of the network, novel genes involved in this predicted gene network may provide insight into the mechanisms of thyroid disrupting mechanisms of BUVSs. Taken together, our results indicate that BUVSs can potentially impact the thyroid system, and that this is dependent upon the type or structure of BUVSs.

“…Vidal-Dorsch et al (2012) observed significant dilution of STP effluent discharge in seawater at submarine outfalls and highlighted the difficulty of determining the environmental relevance of the low level PPCPs observed in seawater. However, several authors reported the detection of PPCPs in marine organisms (Klosterhaus et al 2013;Nakata et al 2012). Hence, it is essential to evaluate the contamination range while identifying vulnerable marine sites so as to enhance assessment of marine organisms exposure.…”

Little research has been conducted on the occurrence of pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) in the marine environment despite being increasingly impacted by these contaminants. This article reviews data on the occurrence of PPCPs in seawater, sediment, and organisms in the marine environment. Data pertaining to 196 pharmaceuticals and 37 personal care products reported from more than 50 marine sites are analyzed while taking sampling strategies and analytical methods into account. Particular attention is focused on the most frequently detected substances at highest concentrations. A snapshot of the most impacted marine sites is provided by comparing the highest concentrations reported for quantified substances. The present review reveals that: (i) PPCPs are widespread in seawater, particularly at sites impacted by anthropogenic activities, and (ii) the most frequently investigated and detected molecules in seawater and sediments are antibiotics, such as erythromycin. Moreover, this review points out other PPCPs of concern, such as ultraviolet filters, and underlines the scarcity of data on those substances despite recent evidence on their occurrence in marine organisms. The exposure of marine organisms in regard to these insufficient data is discussed.
