“…These patterns were in good agreement with those reported in soils byStrynar et al (2012), i.e. PFOS > PFOA > PFDoA > PFHpA > PFHxA but were quite different from those observed in surface water with predominance of PFOS and PFHxS(Loos et al 2013, Munoz et al 2015b or in total atmospheric fallout with the predominance of PFOA and PFNA(Kwok et al 2010). The differences of PFAS patterns might be linked to i) the degradation of PFOS precursors and ii) the higher lixiviation of shorter-chain carboxylic acids such as PFOA comparatively to PFOS, due to their lower solid-liquid partitioning coefficients(Munoz et al 2015b).…”

Soils are playing a central role in the transfer and accumulation of anthropogenic pollutants in urbanized regions. Hence, this study aimed at examining the contamination levels of selected soils collected within and around the Paris conurbation (France). This also evaluated factors controlling contamination. Twenty-three trace and major elements as well as 82 organic micropollutants including polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), phthalates (PAEs), polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs), alkylphenols (APs), and perfluoroalkylated substances (PFASs) were analyzed. Results reinforced the concern raised by the occurrence and levels of metals such as Zn, Pb, Cu, and Hg, identified as metallic markers of anthropogenic activities, but also pointed out the ubiquitous contamination of soils by organic micropollutants in the 0.2-55,000-μg/kg dw range. For well-documented compounds like PAHs, PCBs, and to a lesser extent PBDEs, contents were in the range of background levels worldwide. The pollutant stock in tested soil was compared to the annual atmospheric input. For PAHs; Pb; and to a lesser extent Zn, Cu, Cd, Hg, Sb, PAEs, and APs, a significant stock was observed, far more important than the recent annual atmospheric fluxes. This resulted from both (i) the persistence of a fraction of pollutants in surface soils and (ii) the cumulative atmospheric inputs over several decades. Regarding PBDEs and PFASs, stronger atmospheric input contributions were observed, thereby highlighting their recent dispersal into the environment.

“…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.

“…Previous published scientific studies reported that PFOS exists widely in rivers, lakes and oceans (Yamashita et al, 2005;Munoz et al, 2015;Sakurai et al, 2016). Considering Yellow-Bohai Sea as a case area, the maximal concentration in sea water of PFOS was reported to be about 30.9 ng L À1 in coastal areas of Bohai Sea (Wang et al, 2011).…”
