[PMID: 38357703 PMCID: PMC10864596 DOI: 10.3389/fbioe.2024.1347625] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/04/2023] [Accepted: 01/16/2024] [Indexed: 02/16/2024] Open
Abstract
17β-Estradiol (E2) is a critical sex steroid hormone, which has significant effects on the endocrine systems of both humans and animals. E2 is also believed to play neurotrophic and neuroprotective roles in the brain. Biosensors present a powerful tool to detect E2 because of their small, efficient, and flexible design. Furthermore, Biosensors can quickly and accurately obtain detection results with only a small sampling amount, which greatly meets the detection of the environment, food safety, medicine safety, and human body. This review focuses on previous studies of biosensors for detecting E2 and divides them into non-biometric sensors, enzyme biosensors, antibody biosensors, and aptamer biosensors according to different bioreceptors. The advantages, disadvantages, and design points of various bioreceptors for E2 detection are analyzed and summarized. Additionally, applications of different bioreceptors of E2 detection are presented and highlight the field of environmental monitoring, food and medicine safety, and disease detection in recent years. Finally, the development of E2 detection by biosensor is prospected.

Simultaneous determination of twelve natural estrogens in dairy milk using liquid-liquid extraction and solid-phase extraction coupled with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND POLLUTION RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2023; 30:112908-112921. [PMID: 37843706 DOI: 10.1007/s11356-023-30330-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/28/2023] [Accepted: 10/04/2023] [Indexed: 10/17/2023]
Abstract
There have been many analytical methods for natural estrogens in commercial dairy milk samples, but in most of which, only four major estrogens (estrone (E1), 17β-estradiol (E2), estriol (E3), and 17α-estradiol (αE2)) were included. This work developed an effective GC-MS analytical method for simultaneous analysis of twelve natural estrogens in commercial dairy milk sample, in which eight far-less well-known natural estrogens (2-hydroxyestone (2OHE1), 4-hydroxyestrone (4OHE1), 2-hydroxyestradiol (2OHE2), 4-hydroxyestradiol (4OHE2), 16-epiestriol (16epiE3), 16α-hydroxyestrone (16αOHE1), 16-ketoestradiol (16ketoE2) and 17epiestriol (17epiE3)) were included besides the four major natural estrogens. With liquid-liquid extraction and solid phase extraction, twelve natural estrogens in commercial dairy milk could be effectively extracted. The established method showed good linearity (R2 > 0.9991), low limits of detections (LODs, 0.02-0.11 ng/g), as well as excellent recoveries (64-117%) with satisfactory low relative standard deviations (RSDs, 0.8-14.7%). This established method was applied to seven commercial dairy milk samples, and all the twelve natural estrogens were frequently detected except for 4OHE2 without detection in any sample. Our results showed that the concentration contribution ratios of the eight far-less well-known natural estrogens in commercial dairy milk samples contributed to 32-83%, while the corresponding contribution ratios based on estrogen equivalence (EEQ) were 21-62%. This work highlighted the high abundance of the eight far-less well-known natural estrogens in commercial dairy milk based on both concentration and EEQ, which has been neglected for a long time.

Twelve natural estrogens and ten bisphenol analogues in eight drinking water treatment plants: Analytical method, their occurrence and risk evaluation. WATER RESEARCH 2023; 243:120310. [PMID: 37473512 DOI: 10.1016/j.watres.2023.120310] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/19/2023] [Revised: 06/18/2023] [Accepted: 07/03/2023] [Indexed: 07/22/2023]
Abstract
Bisphenol analogues (BPs) and natural estrogens (NEs) as two important groups of endocrine-disrupting compounds (EDCs) in drinking water treatment plants (DWTPs) have been hardly investigated except bisphenol A (BPA) and three major NEs including estrone (E1), 17β-estradiol (E2) and estriol (E3). In this study, a GC-MS analytical method was firstly established and validated for trace simultaneous determination of ten BPs and twelve NEs in drinking water, which included BPA, bisphenol B (BPB), bisphenol C (BPC), bisphenol E (BPE), bsiphenol F (BPF), bsiphenol P (BPP), bisphenol S (BPS), bisphenol Z (BPZ), bisphenol AF (BPAF), bisphenol AP (BPAP), E1, E2, E3, 17α-estradiol (17α-E2), 2-hydroestrone (2OHE1), 16hydroxyestrone (16α-OHE1), 4-hydroestrone (4OHE1), 2-hydroxyesstradiol (2OHE2), 4-hydroxyestradiol (4OHE2), 17-epiestriol (17epiE3), 16-epiestriol (16epiE3) and 16keto-estraiol (16ketoE2). This investigation showed that eighteen out of twenty-two targeted compounds were detected in drinking source waters of eight DWTPs with concentrations ranging from not detected to 142.8 ng/L. Although the conventional treatment process of DWTP could efficiently remove both BPs and NEs with respective removal efficiencies of 74.1%-90.9% and 74.5%-100%, BPA, BPS, BPE, BPZ, E1, 2OHE1, and 2OHE2 were found in the finished drinking waters. Chlorination could remove part of BPs and NEs, but the efficiency varied greatly with DWTP and the reason was unknown. In the finished drinking waters of eight DWTPs, the highest chemically calculated estrogen equivalence (EEQ) derived from BPs and NEs was up to 6.11 ngE2/L, which was over 22 times that could do harm to zebrafish, indicating a potential risk to human health. Given the fact that many chlorination products of BPs and NEs likely have higher estrogenic activities, the estrogenic effect of BPs and NEs in finished drinking water should be accurately examined urgently with the inclusion of BPs, NEs as well as their main chlorinated by-products. This study shed new light on the occurrence, removal, and potential estrogenic effects of BPs and NEs in DWTPs.

Abstract
Bisphenol analogs (BPs) in livestock urine are important biomarkers to reflect the potential contaminants in food products derived from these animals. Nevertheless, little research has been done on their occurrence in farm animal urine. This work investigated ten BPs in swine and bovine urines collected from two Chinese farms. Results showed that all of these ten BPs were frequently detected in swine and bovine urines. The total mean concentration of the ten BPs (ΣBPs) in sow urines was 59.7 ng/mL, which was significantly higher than that of the boar urine with a mean concentration of 37.0 ng/mL (p < 0.05). On the other hand, the corresponding mean concentration of ΣBPs in dairy cattle urine was 59.6 ng/mL, which was significantly higher than that of the beef cattle urine with 37.0 ng/mL (p < 0.05). The respective mean concentration contribution ratios of BPA to ΣBPs in boar, sow, dairy, and beef cattle urines were only 14.9%, 21.4%, 9.0%, and 14.6%, which clearly indicated that BPA was no longer the dominant BP. The average daily urinary excretion rates of ΣBPs by boar, sow, dairy, and beef cattle were 37.0, 59.8, 167.0, and 36.8 times that of human, which suggested that swine and bovine likely encountered high dosage exposure of BPs in the two Chinese livestock farms. Our results showed that feeds and nutritional supplements as unintentionally added contaminants were the main sources of BPs to swine and bovine. As swine and bovine are important food sources for human being, part of BPs exposed to livestock eventually would enter human body via meat or milk. Therefore, quality controls of these feeds or nutritional supplements are quite important in order to guarantee welfare of livestock as well as protect health of our human beings.

Property of arylsulfatase and β-glucuronidase extracted from digestive tracts of Cipangopaludina chinensis and their cleavage performance on conjugated natural estrogens. ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND POLLUTION RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2022; 29:64244-64251.

Abstract
Arylsulfatase and β-glucuronidase are the two substantial enzymes having a significant role in the cleavage of conjugated natural estrogens (C-NEs). The present study reports that arylsulfatase and β-glucuronidase have been abundantly found in the digestive tracts of Cipangopaludina chinensis; in which, their corresponding activities were 60 and 5 U/g wet waste, respectively. The arylsulfatase from Cipangopaludina chinensis could show high activity at low temperatures. Hence, its activity still remained at 53.2% of maximal activity even at an extremely low temperature of 4 ℃; while the corresponding activities of arylsulfatase from Helix pomatia or activated sludge were less than 20% and 10%, respectively. The arylsulfatase and β-glucuronidase from Cipangopaludina chinensis could efficiently cleave C-NEs suggesting that they could be alternative enzymes derived from Helix pomatia that are used for cleavage of conjugated compounds in environmental or biological sample analysis. Meanwhile, they might also be used to enhance the cleavage of C-NEs in municipal wastewater.
