“…The high sample volumes in this procedure, usually from 100 mL (Goksoyr et al, 2009;Liu et al, 2010) up to 1.0 L (Kameda et al, 2011;Liu et al, 2011) is the main disadvantage of this technique. Because UV-filters are relatively polar, the great majority of authors use intermediate polarity solvents like dichloromethane (DCM) (Goksoyr et al, 2009;Kameda et al, 2011;Lambropoulou et al, 2002;Tashiro and Kameda, 2013) or ethyl acetate (EA) (Arukwe et al, 2012;Balmer et al, 2005;da Silva et al, 2015;Negreira et al, 2008;Poiger et al, 2004) to extract water samples. However, Rodil et al (2012) used a more polar solvent, methanol (MeOH), which is justified by the complex mixture analysed, containing not only very polar UV-filters (like PBSA and BP4), but also other polar compounds like pharmaceuticals and herbicides.…”

“…However, Rodil et al (2012) used a more polar solvent, methanol (MeOH), which is justified by the complex mixture analysed, containing not only very polar UV-filters (like PBSA and BP4), but also other polar compounds like pharmaceuticals and herbicides. SPE is considered a good method, easy to perform and generally yields high recoveries, ranging 60 to 100% (Giokas et al, 2004;Goksoyr et al, 2009;Kameda et al, 2011;Li et al, 2007;Liu et al, 2010;Liu et al, 2011;Tsui et al, 2014a). In order to obtain a better clean-up, SPE is also used coupled to other clean-up techniques, as gel permeation chromatography (GPC) (Balmer et al, 2005) with recoveries ranging 78 -129%.…”

“…Extractions from these devices are usually by dialysis for 24 h and the solvents used are cyclopentane/DCM (95:5) (CYPN/DCM), CYPN or hexane (Hex) (Goksoyr et al, 2009;Balmer et al, 2005;Poiger et al, 2004). These authors studied mid-polar UV-filters (BP3, OC, (1:1) (Amine, 2012), Ac/toluene (Tl) (7:3) (Kameda, 2011), EA/Hex (8:2) (Rodil et al, 2008), EA /MeOH (9:1) (Sánchez-Brunete, 2011).…”

UV-filters are a group of compounds designed mainly to protect skin against UVA and UVB radiation, but they are also included in plastics, furniture, etc., to protect products from light damage. Their massive use in sunscreens for skin protection has been increasing due to the awareness of the chronic and acute effects of UV radiation. Some organic UV-filters have raised significant concerns in the past few years for their continuous usage, persistent input and potential threat to ecological environment and human health. UV-filters end up is wastewater and because wastewater treatment plants are not efficient in removing them, lipophilic compounds tend to sorb onto sludge and hydrophilics end up in river water, contaminating the existing biota. To better understand the risk associated with UV-filters in the environment a thorough review regarding their physicochemical properties, toxicity and environmental degradation, analytical methods and their occurrence was conducted.Higher UV-filter concentrations were found in rivers, reaching 0.3 mg/L for the most studied family, the benzophenone derivatives. Concentrations in the ng to µg/L range were also detected for the paminobenzoic acid, cinnamate, crylene and benzoyl methane derivatives in lake and sea water.Although at lower levels (few ng/L), UV-filters were also found in tap and groundwater. Swimming pool water is also a sink for UV-filters and its chlorine by-products, at the µg/L range, highlighting the benzophenone and benzimidazole derivatives. Soils and sediments are not frequently studied, but concentrations in the µg/L range have already been found especially for the benzophenone and crylene derivatives. Aquatic biota is frequently studied and UV-filters are found in the ng/g-dw range with higher values for fish and mussels. It has been concluded that more information regarding UVfilter degradation studies both in water and sediments is necessary and environmental occurrences should be monitored more frequently and deeply.

Concern for the natural environment increasingly devotes more attention to growing potential hazards resulting from the release of various substances. Currently, one of the main problems associated with environmental pollution is the derivation of organic compounds from wastewater. Substances derived from sewage leaks into the environment in the form of a multicomponent mixtures often enhances the toxic effects caused by these compounds. While analyzing the reports in the literature of the last two decades it can be seen that substantial efforts are devoted to the determination of selected trace contaminants present in wastewater. Among the most marked there are endocrine disrupting compounds, residues of pharmaceuticals and personal care products, plastics and sunscreens. Recently, a new group of compounds joined the aforementioned contaminants, namely drugs, whose legality and availability is increasing every year. Exposure to these type of compounds, named in the literature as emerging contaminants (ECs), involves, among others, such effects as hormonal imbalance, reduction of the survivability of aquatic organisms and reproductive problems.This paper provides a review of the types of emerging organic groundwater contaminants (EGCs) which are beginning to be found in the natural environment in many countries all around the world.
