“…LAS are synthesized by Friedel-Crafts alkylation of benzene followed by sulfonation of benzene, predominantly at the para position, with chain lengths ranging from C10 to C14 (Marcomini and Giger 1987). After use, most LAS are ultimately discharged into aquatic ecosystems via treated or untreated wastewater.…”

The exogenous organic pollutant linear alkylbenzene sulfonate (LAS) pollution and Microcystis bloom are two common phenomena in eutrophic lakes, but the effects of LAS alone on Microcystis remain unclear. In the present study, we investigated the effects of LAS on the growth, photochemical efficiency, and microcystin production of Microcystis aeruginosa in the laboratory. Results showed that low LAS (≤10 mg/L) concentrations improved the growth of M. aeruginosa (12 days of exposure). High LAS (20 mg/L) concentrations inhibited the growth of M. aeruginosa on the first 8 days of exposure; afterward, growth progressed. After 12 days of exposure, the concentrations of chlorophyll a in algal cells were not significantly affected by any of LAS concentrations (0.05 to 20 mg/L) in the present study; by contrast, carotenoid and protein concentrations were significantly inhibited when LAS concentrations reached as high as 20 mg/L. After 6 and 12 days of exposure, low LAS (≤10 mg/ L) concentrations enhanced the maximal photochemical efficiency (Fv/Fm) and the maximal electron transport rate (ETRmax) of M. aeruginosa. Furthermore, LAS increased the microcystin production of M. aeruginosa. Extracellular and intracellular microcystin contents were significantly increased after M. aeruginosa was exposed to high LAS concentrations. Our results indicated that LAS in eutrophic lakes may increase the risk of Microcystis bloom and microcystin production.

“…[4][5][6] However, some derivatization steps to convert LAS into a volatile compound 7,8 are unavoidable for GC procedures, because LASs are not volatile enough to permit direct measurement by GC. LC has widely been applied to the determination of LAS in various environmental samples without any derivatization using ultraviolet (UV), 9-11 fluorescence (FL), [12][13][14][15][16] and MS [17][18][19] detection. Nakae et al 12,13 obtained an excellent separation of many LAS components (homologues and isomers) by reversed-phase chromatography with FL detection.…”

Characterization and Determination of Linear Alkylbenzenesulfonates in Environmental Water Samples by High-Performance Liquid Chromatography with a Hydrophilic Polymer Column and Electrospray Ionization Mass Spectrometric Detection

A liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC/MS) method was developed for the separation and determination of linear alkylbenzenesulfonates (C10 -C14 LAS) in environmental water samples using a hydrophilic polymer column . This method involves a solid-phase extraction of the LAS samples with a Sep-Pak PS-2 cartridge. The LAS components were separated on the column with a mobile phase of 29% (w/v) acetonitrile-water containing 0.8 mM di-n-butylammonium acetate and 0.2 M acetic acid, and were detected by mass spectrometry with electrospray ionization. Detection limits of the developed method based on selected ion monitoring (SIM) technique for the C10 -C14 LAS standards were 13 -47 ng L -1 . The concentrations of the C10 -C14 LAS in the environmental water samples ranged between 5 -317 µg L -1 for a river water sample and 0.4 -6.4 µg L -1 for a seawater sample. Linear relationships between the logarithms of retention factors and the alkyl chain lengths for each phenyl positional isomer of LAS could successfully be used for the identification of the isomer peaks.
