“…The mean contents of 17 a-E2, 17 b-E2 and E1 in the beef waste were 104.5, 67.7 and 216.4 lg kg -1 , respectively. E3 was below the detection limit in all samples (Wei et al 2011). In the Swiss study of (Rechsteiner et al 2020) the mean concentrations of cattle slurry were: 861 ± 367, 138 ± 126, 160 ± 205, and 397 ± 411 ng/L for 17 a-E2, 17 b-E2, E3 and E1, respectively.…”

Due to the appearance of intensive livestock-rearing systems since the 1970s, a vast amount of liquid manure (slurry) has been produced. The application and utilization are partly regulated for this special substance, which contains urine, excrement, process water, and other chemicals, such as insecticides and disinfectants. Our research was conducted on a slurry management system of a dairy cattle farm, focusing on the investigation of the presence of oestrogenic substances and toxicity of slurry before and after using a separator technology. Yeast oestrogen screen shows in this study that the separation of the liquid and solid phases of slurry contributes to the reduction in oestrogenic substances. Based on the toxicological studies, the growth inhibition of algae was 93%, and the inhibition of the germination of higher plant seeds was 25%, without separation. After separation of the phases, growth and germination were comparable with the negative control; moreover, some stimulation was detected. Consequently, harmful substances were removed with the suspended solid phase. From the present study, we can conclude that stakeholders should support separation technology in intensive livestock-rearing systems, and ecotoxicological investigations obviously help the risk management of slurry utilization. To our best knowledge, this is the first paper presenting detailed and complex toxicological study on slurry samples.

Endocrine disruptors are defined as exogenous agents that alter the function of endocrine system, which in turn, causes adverse health effects in an intact organism or its progeny. Of these compounds, 17β-estradiol is of primary importance, since it is physiologically present in both men and women, as well as, being produced synthetically as a component in some pharmaceutical products. Once it reaches the aquatic environment through domestic sewage, ground water and streams, it makes a serious threat to the aquatic life. The review tackles the biological significance of these compounds as well as the danger that they present to the surrounding environment, areas at which these compounds have been detected worldwide, the methods used in detection and fundamentally significant solutions to get rid of this hazard using different methods such as; the bioremediation process.

The estrogen pollution in the Tiaoxi River, which is the main source river for Taihu Lake, was investigated by chemical and bioassay analysis. Most estrogens species, except estrone, were not detected by the chemical analysis using liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry. The concentration of estrone in the samples ranged from ND (below the detection limit) to 17.25 ng/L. The estrogen activity in most water samples was also determined by the yeast estrogen screen. The 17β-estradiol equivalent in the intake of Taihu Lake was 17.60 ng/L and was present in all water samples. This study demonstrates that combining chemical and bioassay analysis is an effective way to detect environmental contamination by estrogen species. Furthermore, the results indicate that the risk of estrogen contamination in the Tiaoxi River should not be ignored.
