“…Samples of wild mussels (M. galloprovincialis) from Portugal were studied by Groz et al (2014) and high levels were detected for EMC (1765 ng/g-dw), ODP (833 ng/g-dw) and OC (3992 ng/g-dw); however, compound UV-326 was not detected. These results are in a lower range of that detected by Bachelot et al (2012), except OC which was found at higher concentrations (7112 ng/gdw).…”

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.

“…Organic UV filters have been found in several aquatic organisms (marine invertebrates, fish, marine mammals, aquatic birds); often they were detected at significantly high concentrations (e.g., OC at up to 712 ng/g in the liver of the Brazilian dolphin Pontoporia blainvillei, [26]; octyl methoxycinnamate (OMC) at up to 256 ng/g dry weight, and OC at up to 7112 ng/g dry weight of Mytilus sp. collected along French coasts, [27]; EHMC at up to 701 ng/g lipids of the cormorant Phalacrocorax sp., [28]). Gago-Ferrero et al [29] reported that several fish species from Iberian rivers contained detectable concentrations of lipophilic UV filters (BP-3, EHMC, 4-MBC, and OC) in the range of ng/g of dry weight.…”

Cosmetic Ingredients as Emerging Pollutants of Environmental and Health Concern. A Mini-Review

2017

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Cosmetic and personal care products are used in huge quantities throughout the world; as a result of their regular use, they are continuously released into the environment in very large amounts. Many of these products are biologically active and are characterized by persistence and bioaccumulation potential, posing a threat to ecosystem and human health. On the basis of the most recent scientific literature available on this subject, this paper provides an overview of some cosmetic ingredients that are considered environmental emerging pollutants of particular concern such as UV filters, some preservatives (parabens, triclosan), and microplastics.

“…The highest observed concentration of OTC in the effluent drains was equal to 270 ng dm -3 , while the concentration of EHMC was determined at the level of 100 ng dm -3 , and OD-PABA -at 7 ng dm -3 . The concentration of the same filters in river water was equal to 1040 ng dm -3 for EHMC, 250 ng dm -3 for OTC, and 47 ng dm -3 for OD-PABA [125]. In Germany, the study was concentrated on four UV-filer related compounds: B-MDM, EHMC, 4-MBC and OTC.…”

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.
