“…Some benzodiazepine pharmaceuticals and the corresponding human metabolites could form benzophenone derivatives during the aqueous photo-transformation process (West and Rowland, 2012). Jeon et al (2008) found that, in rats, BPs could be converted to benzohydrol and 4-hydroxy-BP, and 2-hydroxy-4-methoxy-BP could be converted to 2,4-dihydroxy-BP, 2,3,4-trihydroxy-BP, and 2,2′-dihydroxy-4-methoxy-BP. Detection of BP-type UV filters have been found within multiple environmental media and organisms (Balmer et al, 2005;Jeon et al, 2006;Loraine and Pettigrove, 2006;Negreira et al, 2011;Poiger et al, 2004).…”
