“…Briefly, dissolved (<0.7 μm fraction) pesticides and PFASs were extracted using solid-phase extraction with polymeric sorbents (100-500 mL samples) followed by analysis by liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry Munoz et al 2015), while alkylphenols were determined using solid-phase microextraction and gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (Belles et al 2014). Freeze-dried sediment (1 g) or gammarid (0.2 g) samples were extracted using microwave-assisted extraction followed by solid-phase extraction adsorption chromatography cleanup (Budzinski et al 2000;Nouira et al 2013;Munoz et al 2015).…”

Quality assessment of environments under high anthropogenic pressures such as the Seine Basin, subjected to complex and chronic inputs, can only be based on combined chemical and biological analyses. The present study integrates and summarizes a multidisciplinary dataset acquired throughout a 1-year monitoring survey conducted at three workshop sites along the Seine River (PIREN-Seine program), upstream and downstream of the Paris conurbation, during four seasonal campaigns using a weight-of-evidence approach. Sediment and water column chemical analyses, bioaccumulation levels and biomarker responses in caged gammarids, and laboratory (eco)toxicity bioassays were integrated into four lines of evidence (LOEs). Results from each LOE clearly reflected an anthropogenic gradient, with contamination levels and biological effects increasing from upstream to downstream of Paris, in good agreement with the variations in the structure and composition of bacterial communities from the water column. Based on annual average data, the global hazard was summarized as "moderate" at the upstream station and as "major" at the two downstream ones. Seasonal variability was also highlighted; the winter campaign was least impacted. The model was notably improved using previously established reference and threshold values from national-scale studies. It undoubtedly represents a powerful practical tool to facilitate the decision-making processes of environment managers within the framework of an environmental risk assessment strategy.

“…Indeed, membranes used in-house assembled samplers are well described in the literature. For instance, there are nylon membranes enabling the sampling of hydrophobic pollutants and with an improved rate of accumulation for other pollutants (Belles et al 2014). An innovative approach was introduced by Chen et al (Chen et al 2012;Chen et al 2013), which used a gel-based layer instead of a membrane.…”

“…POCIS are also deployed in agricultural watersheds (Jairnes-Correa et al 2015), areas of pharmaceutical industrial activity or hospital effluents (Bailly et al 2013), to investigate the degree of contamination by particular pollutants. Spiked water samples and laboratory tests are commonly used in studies on the kinetics of uptake of new micropollutants and evaluation of various physical effects on the sampler or the characterization of the innovative features of future POCIS (Li et al 2011;Carlson et al 2013;Morin et al 2013;Belles et al 2014;Kaserzon et al 2014). These approaches often include a range of analytes with different physical-chemical properties (basic, acidic, phenolic and neutral) which provide a better insight into the new samplers' efficiency for monitoring various analytes.…”

“…A standard calibration procedure is still lacking and different approaches often involve the use of original laboratory devices, which results in variability in the determined R S values. Even though it is also virtually impossible to consider all the factors operating in the field, laboratory calibration is still the most popular method for evaluating R S (Bartelt-Hunt et al 2011;Li et al 2011;Miege et al 2012;Morin et al 2013;Vallejo et al 2013;Amdany et al 2014a;Bayen et al 2014;Belles et al 2014;Di Carro et al 2014;Kaserzon et al 2014). In situ calibration, at specific sites is more reliable but so far has rarely been used (Harman et al 2011;Jacquet et al 2012;Miege et al 2012;Shi et al 2014) because of the complexity of the process.…”

“…The use of a performance reference standard (PRC), which can eliminate the influence of environmental factors (already established for hydrophobic samplers), is still limited for hydrophilic compounds. Since Mazzella et al (2010) proposed deuterated deisopropyl-atrazine-d5 (DIA d5) as an appropriate PRC for polar herbicide sampling, other compounds have been tested Miege et al 2012;Vallejo et al 2013;Belles et al 2014). Several deuterated hormones and β-blockers are also suggested by Jacquet et al 2012.…”

Passive sampling is a rapidly developing technology, which is widely used for the monitoring of pollutants in different environments. Passive sampling offers significant advantages over traditional grab sampling. In the present review, the authors summarize the current literature on the methods of passive sampling used in the environmental monitoring of polar or semi-polar compounds in aqueous matrices. Methods of calibrating, design and deployment of samplers are also discussed. A major focus of this review is the use of polar organic compound integrative samplers (POCIS) and their use in sampling and monitoring of pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PCPs) in both equilibrium and non-equilibrium conditions.

The present study examined the potential use of polar organic chemical integrative samplers (POCIS) for exposure assessment of munitions constituents, including 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT) and hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazine (RDX), and their breakdown products (aminodinitrotoluenes [ADNTs], diaminonitrotoluenes [DANTs], and hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitroso-1,3,5-triazine [TNX]). Loss of munitions constituents from the sorbent phase after uptake was observed for the "pesticide" POCIS configuration but not for the "pharmaceutical" configuration. Therefore, the latter was selected for further investigation. Under constant exposure conditions, TNT, ADNTs, DANT, RDX, and atrazine (a common environmental contaminant) accumulated at a linear rate for at least 14 d, with sampling rates between 34 mL/d and 215 mL/d. When POCIS were exposed to fluctuating concentrations, analyte accumulation values were similar to values found during constant exposure, indicating that the sampler was indeed integrative. In contrast, caffeine (a common polar contaminant) and TNX did not accumulate at a linear rate and had a reduction in accumulation of greater than 50% on the POCIS during fluctuating exposures, demonstrating that POCIS did not sample those chemicals in an integrative manner. Moreover, in a flow-through microcosm containing the explosive formulation Composition B, TNT and RDX were readily measured using POCIS, despite relatively high turnover rates and thus reduced water concentrations. Mean water concentrations estimated from POCIS were ± 37% of mean water concentrations measured by traditional grab sample collection. Thus, POCIS were found to have high utility for quantifying exposure to most munitions constituents evaluated (TNT, ADNTs, and RDX) and atrazine.
