The four polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon markers (PAH4) of benzo[a]anthracene (BaA), chrysene (Chr), benzo[b]fluoranthene (BbF), and benzo[a]pyrene (BaP) are indicators showing polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) contamination levels in Chinese medicine raw materials (CMRMs), extracts and health food products; Samples of herbal medicine, herbal extracts, and food supplements were extracted with n-hexane, then cleaned up sequentially on Florisil and EUPAH solid-phase extraction (SPE) columns. A gas chromatography–mass spectrometry method for the determination of four polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon markers in Chinese medicine raw material, extracts, and health food products was established; In spiked-recovery experiments, the average recovery was about 78.6–107.6% with a precision of 2.3–10.5%. The limit of quantification (LOQ) and limit of detection (LOD) of the PAH4 markers in this method were 2.0 μg/kg and 0.7 μg/kg, respectively. When the developed method was utilized to determine PAH4 contents in 12 locally available health food products, 3 samples contained over 10.0 μg/kg BaP, and 5 samples contained over 50.0 μg/kg PAH4. The European Union (EU) limits for BaP and PAH4 are 10 and 50.0 μg/kg, respectively; therefore, more attention must be drawn to the exposure risk of BaP and PAH4 in CMRMs, their extracts, and health food products. According to the risk assessment based on the Margin of Exposure (MOE) method, it is recognized that the products mentioned in this study pose a low risk.

“…PAHs are organic compounds composed of two or more benzene rings bonded in multiple arrangements, released to the environment by natural or anthropogenic means, such as fossil fuel or wood burning, and automobile emissions (Mukhopadhyay et al, 2020). Their presence is commonly identified in multiple environmental compartments and poses a risk to the wellbeing of aquatic organisms (Ofori et al, 2020).…”

“…Currently, methods for the removal of PAHs in road surfaces (Gbeddy, Goonetilleke, Ayoko, & Egodawatta, 2020) and their toxicity for aquatic animals (Honda & Suzuki, 2020) have also been reported. For a comprehensive overview, a list of current review articles discussing the topic of PAHs is presented in Exhibit 3 (Abdullah et al, 2020;Gbeddy et al, 2020;Honda & Suzuki, 2020;Jalili, Barkhordari, & Ghiasvand, 2020;Jinadasa, Monteau, & Fowler, 2020;Li et al, 2020;Mojiri, Zhou, Ohashi, Ozaki, & Kindaichi, 2019;Mukhopadhyay, Dutta, & Das, 2020;Sayara & Sánchez, 2020;Sun et al, 2020;Zhang et al, 2019). A review of PAHs in wastewater has been carried out by Zhang et al (2019) and found that the LMW and HMW PAHs were dominant in wastewater and sludge.…”

Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) become a main contributor of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and their substitutions present in freshwater systems. This paper reviews PAHs and their substitutions in full‐scale WWTPs including their fate and behaviors, analytical techniques, biological treatments, feasibility examination, and modeling. In addition, challenges and future outlook are also highlighted. This study found that PAHs and their substitutions have been detected in WWTPs. GC‐MS and HPLC analytical methods have been found to be acceptable for the detection and analysis of PAHs and their substitutions. Although some biological treatments such as activated sludge and membrane bioreactors are capable for the treatment process, their technical, social, economic, and environmental aspects must be considered. The fate and treatability estimator (FATE) model has been used for the modeling of removal of PAHs in full‐scale WWTPs, but in some cases their shortcoming has been reported, which calls for an evaluation and modification of the model based on physicochemical processes.
