Ecological risk assessment of fifty pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) in Chinese surface waters: A proposed multiple-level system

Environment International, Journal Year: 2020, Volume and Issue: 136, P. 105454 - 105454

Published: Feb. 4, 2020

Interest in the risks posed by trace concentrations of pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) surface waters is increasing, particularly with regard to potential effects long-term, low-dose exposures aquatic organisms. In most cases, actual studies on PPCPs were risk assessments at screening-level, accurate estimates scarce. this study, exposure ecotoxicity data 50 collected based our previous studies, a multiple-level environmental assessment was performed. The selected are likely be frequently detected China, ranging from ng L-1 low-g L-1, quotients median ranged 2046 for nonylphenol 0 phantolide. A semi-probabilistic approach screened 33 that organisms, among which 15 chemicals (nonylphenol, sulfamethoxazole, di (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate, 17β-ethynyl estradiol, caffeine, tetracycline, 17β-estradiol, estrone, dibutyl ibuprofen, carbamazepine, tonalide, galaxolide, triclosan, bisphenol A) categorized as priority compounds according an optimized assessment, then refined probabilistic indicated 12 them low high ecosystem, maximum 1.54% 17.38%. Based these results, we propose appropriate screening contaminants national scale, when more estimation required, probability useful. methodology process might provide reference other research chemical evaluation management rivers, lakes, sea waters.

Optimization of screening-level risk assessment and priority selection of emerging pollutants – The case of pharmaceuticals in European surface waters

Environment International, Journal Year: 2019, Volume and Issue: 128, P. 1 - 10

Published: April 24, 2019

Pharmaceuticals in surface waters have raised significant concern recent years for their potential environmental effects. This study identified that at present a total of 477 substances (including 66 metabolites and transformation products) been analyzed European waters. Around 60% (284) these compounds belonging to 16 different therapeutic groups were positively detected one or more 33 countries. To conveniently effectively prioritize high-risk compounds, an optimized method considers the frequency concentrations above predicted no effects levels was developed on basis traditional method, it then used identify screen candidate priority pollutants The results proved feasibility advantages method. classified into 5 categories (high, moderate, endurable, negligible safe) depending distribution pharmaceuticals. Circa 9% (45 out 477) showed risk aquatic ecosystems. Among 45 12 indicated high environments, while 17 7 moderate small-scale risks, respectively.

Abundance, fate, and effects of pharmaceuticals and personal care products in aquatic environments

Journal of Hazardous Materials, Journal Year: 2021, Volume and Issue: 424, P. 127284 - 127284

Published: Sept. 22, 2021

Pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) are found in wastewater, thus, the environment. In this study, current knowledge about occurrence fate of PPCPs aquatic systems-including wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) natural waters around world-is critically reviewed to inform state science highlight existing gaps. Excretion by humans is primary route entry into municipal systems, but significant contributions also occur through emissions from hospitals, manufacturers, agriculture. Abundance raw influenced several factors, including population density demography served WWTPs, presence hospitals drugs manufacturers sewershed, disease burden served, local regulations, climatic conditions. Based on data obtained analgesics, antibiotics, stimulants (e.g., caffeine) most abundant wastewater. conventional removal occurs during secondary treatment, overall exceeds 90% for treatable PPCPs. Regardless, total PPCP mass discharged with effluent an average WWTP receiving (7.35-20,160 g/day) still considerable, because potential adverse effects some (such as ibuprofen) organisms within measured concentrations surface waters.
