Risk assessment of butyltins based on a fugacity-based food web bioaccumulation model in the Jincheng Bay mariculture area: II. Risk assessment

Abstract: A fugacity-based food web bioaccumulation model was constructed, and the biotic concentrations of butyltins in the food web of the Jincheng Bay mariculture area were estimated accordingly, using the water and sediment concentrations described in the accompanying paper (Part I). This paper presents an ecological risk assessment (ERA) and a human health risk assessment (HHRA) of the butyltins, based on the estimated tissue residues in the marine life in this area. The results showed that the ecological risk prob… Show more

“…To assess the adverse biological effect of these chemicals, an comprehensive ERA were performed using multiple methodologies, which were extensively used in the ERA of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) and heavy metals in edaphic and aquatic environments (Hu et al, 2014;Rand et al, 2010;Zolezzi et al, 2005), and in the development of the environmental criteria (Posthuma et al, 2002). With regard to the SQGs being a point estimation category, this approach is merely another form of HQ and serves as a dominant powerful tool in the pollutant screening and ERA of sediment POPs.…”
