Liquid crystal monomers (LCMs) are emerging organic pollutants due to their potential persistence, toxicity, and bioaccumulation. This study first characterized the levels compositions of 19 LCMs in organisms Pearl River Estuary (PRE), estimated bioaccumulation trophic transfer potential, identified priority contaminants. were generally accumulated from sediment, LCM concentrations all ranged 32.35 1367 ng/g lipid weight. The main biphenyls analogues (BAs) (76.6%), followed by cyanobiphenyls (CBAs) (15.1%), least fluorinated (FBAs) (11.2%). most abundant BAs, FBAs, CBAs 1-(4-propylcyclohexyl)-4-vinylcyclohexane 1-ethoxy-2,3-difluoro-4-(4-(4-propylcyclohexyl) cyclohexyl) benzene (EDPBB, 10.1%), 4'-propoxy-4-biphenylcarbonitrile (5.1%), respectively. niche studies indicated that PRE food web was composed terrestrial-based diet marine chains. Most exhibited biodilution chains, except for EDPBB 4,4'-bis(4-propylcyclohexyl) biphenyl (BPCHB). hydrophobicity, position fluorine substitution LCMs, biological habits may be important factors affecting LCMs. BPCHB, 1-(prop-1-enyl)-4-(4-propylcyclohexyl) cyclohexane, as reports processes mechanisms biomonitoring PRE.
