Insights into the occurrence of ten bisphenol analogues in tidal flat and deepwater sediments in the Pearl River Basin
Bisphenol analogues (BPs), known endocrine disruptors, have raised increasing concerns due to their widespread use and potential ecological risks. Despite this, limited studies have focused on BPs in river sediments. In this study, we investigated ten BPs in different sediment types, including tidal flat and deepwater, across the Pearl River Basin. Sediment samples from the 0–15 cm depth at seven sites were also analyzed to investigate the vertical profile of BPs. In tidal flat sediments, no significant seasonal variation was observed in the total concentration of BPs (Σ10BPs), with values ranging from 20.8 to 148.1 ng/g in the dry season and 18.1–112.5 ng/g in the wet season. Spatially, the average concentration of BPs was lowest in estuarine sediments, while higher pollution levels were found in urban basin sediments. Deepwater sediments showed a higher BP concentration (average: 72.9 ng/g) compared to the corresponding tidal flat sediments (average: 65.5 ng/g), likely due to more favorable biodegradation conditions in tidal flat environments. The BP concentrations in sediment columns ranged from 12.2 to 93.8 ng/g. The vertical profile revealed that mid-layer sediments (5–10 cm) generally exhibited higher BP levels than those in the top (0–5 cm) and deeper (10–15 cm) layers. BPA showed significant positive correlations with total organic carbon (TOC) in tidal flat sediments. Environmental risk assessments based on the risk quotient (RQ) indicated that BP mixtures in Pearl River sediments posed low to medium risks to fish, algae, and crustaceans, with crustaceans being the most sensitive. To our knowledge, this is the first study to report the occurrence of BPs in tidal and deepwater sediments of a river.
期刊介绍:
Environmental Pollution is an international peer-reviewed journal that publishes high-quality research papers and review articles covering all aspects of environmental pollution and its impacts on ecosystems and human health.
Subject areas include, but are not limited to:
• Sources and occurrences of pollutants that are clearly defined and measured in environmental compartments, food and food-related items, and human bodies;
• Interlinks between contaminant exposure and biological, ecological, and human health effects, including those of climate change;
• Contaminants of emerging concerns (including but not limited to antibiotic resistant microorganisms or genes, microplastics/nanoplastics, electronic wastes, light, and noise) and/or their biological, ecological, or human health effects;
• Laboratory and field studies on the remediation/mitigation of environmental pollution via new techniques and with clear links to biological, ecological, or human health effects;
• Modeling of pollution processes, patterns, or trends that is of clear environmental and/or human health interest;
• New techniques that measure and examine environmental occurrences, transport, behavior, and effects of pollutants within the environment or the laboratory, provided that they can be clearly used to address problems within regional or global environmental compartments.
