Abstract
A magnetic polyimide (PI) nanocomposite has been synthesized by phase inversion of PI and simultaneous encapsulation of Fe3O4 nanoparticles. The Fe3O4/PI nanocomposite was characterized by a variety of characterization techniques, including infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherms, and vibrating sample magnetometry. The results showed that the prepared nanocomposite had a homogeneous structure, adequate specific surface area (76.1 m2/g) and high saturation magnetization (42.9 emu/g). Using parabens as model analytes, the performance of the Fe3O4/PI nanocomposite as an adsorbent for magnetic solid-phase extraction (MSPE) was evaluated. The extracted parabens were desorbed and determined by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The parameters affecting the extraction and desorption efficiency of parabens were optimized. Under the optimal conditions, the developed MSPE/GC-MS method was successfully applied to the determination of parabens in cooking wine. The MSPE/GC-MS method exhibited broad linearity (0.2-100 µg/L), low detection limits (0.04-0.05 µg/L), and satisfactory extraction recoveries (79.2 %-113.3 %) with relative standard deviations (RSDs) ranging from 0.7 % to 10.4 %. For real cooking wine samples, the spiked recoveries ranged from 91.7 % to 118.7 % with RSDs of 1.0 %-11.2 %. The results demonstrated that the Fe3O4/PI nanocomposite was an effective adsorbent, and this work provides a novel reference for the easy preparation of magnetic adsorbent materials.

Analytical methods and biomonitoring results in hair for the assessment of exposure to endocrine-disrupting chemicals: A literature review. CHEMOSPHERE 2024; 353:141523. [PMID: 38417485 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2024.141523] [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: 09/14/2023] [Revised: 02/03/2024] [Accepted: 02/20/2024] [Indexed: 03/01/2024]
Abstract
Endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDC) are compounds that alter functions of the endocrine system due to their ability to mimic or antagonize endogenous hormones, or that alter their synthesis and metabolism, causing adverse health effects. Human biomonitoring (HBM) is a reliable method to assess human exposure to chemicals through measurement in human body fluids and tissues. It identifies new sources of exposure and determines their distribution, thereby enabling detection of the most exposed populations. Blood and urine are commonly used for HBM of EDC, but their interest is limited for compounds presenting short half-lives. Hair appears as an interesting alternative insofar as it provides a large exposure window. For the present study, we evaluated the relevance of hair in determining EDC exposure. With this in mind, we undertook a literature review focusing on the bioanalytical aspects and performances of methods developed to determine EDC in hair. The literature review was performed through methodical bibliographical research. Relevant articles were identified using two scientific databases: PubMed and Web of Science, with search equations built from a combination of keywords, MeSH terms and Boolean operators. The search strategy identified 2949 articles. After duplicates were removed, and following title, abstract, and full-text screenings, only 31 were included for qualitative synthesis. Hair collection was mainly performed in the back of the head and preparation involved two processes: cutting into small pieces or grounding to powder. The off-line LC-MS/MS method remains the main technique used to assess EDC through hair. Differences regarding the validation of analytical methods and interpretation of HBM results were highlighted, suggesting a need for international harmonisation to obtain reliable and comparable results. External contamination of hair was identified as a main limitation in the interpretation of results, highlighting the need to better understand EDC transfers through hair and to develop relevant hair decontamination processes.

Abstract
Parabens are compounds widely utilized in the industry as preservative additives to personal care products, cosmetics and food. They pollute the environment and penetrate to the living organisms through the digestive tract, respiratory system and skin. Till now the knowledge about exposure of terrestrial wild mammals to parabens is extremely scarce. Therefore, this study for the first time assessed the concentration levels of five parabens commonly used in industry (methylparaben-MeP, ethylparaben-EtP propylparaben-PrP, benzylparaben -BeP and butylparaben-BuP). Substances have been analyzed in hair samples collected from wild boars using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) method. The hair is a matrix, which allows to study long-term exposure of organisms to parabens. During this study MeP was noted in 96.3% of samples with mean 88.3±72.9 pg/mg, PrP in 87.0% of samples with mean 8.5±3.3 pg/mg, BeP in 44.4% of samples with mean 17.2±12.3 pg/mg and EtP in 11.1% of samples with mean 17.2±4.8 pg/mg. In turn BuP was noted only in 3.7% of samples with concentration levels below limit of quantification (2.6 pg/mg). Statistically significant intragender differences in parabens levels have not been noted. Only BeP concentration levels depended on industrialization and density of human population of area, where the animals lived. This study indicates that wild boars are exposed to parabens, especially to MeP and PrP, and analysis of the hair seems to be a useful tool of biomonitoring of parabens in wild mammals.

Assessment of Endocrine Disruptor Exposure in Hospital Professionals Using Hair and Urine Analyses: An Awareness Campaign. Ther Drug Monit 2024; 46:102-110. [PMID: 37559216 DOI: 10.1097/ftd.0000000000001132] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/31/2023] [Accepted: 06/04/2023] [Indexed: 08/11/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND In 2021, French public authorities initiated the fourth National Environmental Health Plan to prevent environment-related health risks. This plan primarily focuses on the sensitization of health professionals and health care institutions. Endocrine disruptors (EDs) are environmental factors associated with several adverse health effects, such as reproductive disorders, obesity, and cancer. This study aimed to conduct an awareness campaign among professionals at a general hospital center on the risks related to EDs. METHODS Hospital professionals were directly involved in this study, and urine and hair samples were collected to determine bisphenol and paraben exposure levels. Analyses were performed using validated liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry methods, enabling the simultaneous determination of bisphenols and parabens. A questionnaire on lifestyle habits was distributed to assess its relationship with the exposure profiles. Nineteen professionals were recruited for the study. RESULTS Bisphenol A was detected in 95% of the urine samples, and the chlorinated derivatives of bisphenol A were between 16% and 63%. parabens showed detection frequencies between 37% and 100%, and methylparaben was quantified at an average concentration of 0.45 ± 0.46 ng/mL. In hair samples, bisphenols A, F, and S were detected at 95%-100%, chlorinated derivatives of bisphenol A were detected at 37%-68%, and parabens were detected at 100%. CONCLUSIONS This awareness campaign may encourage health care institutions to adopt a policy of reducing endocrine disruptor exposure among their patients and professionals, who could be educated regarding the risks associated with EDs. Conducting a multicenter study to refine the results herein and establish a dynamic to prevent endocrine disruptor and environmental risks in health care systems would be valuable.

Bisphenol A and chlorinated derivatives of bisphenol A assessment in end stage renal disease patients: Impact of dialysis therapy. ECOTOXICOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY 2024; 270:115880.

Abstract
Patients with end stage kidney disease treated by dialysis (ESKDD) process dialysis sessions to remove molecules usually excreted by kidneys. However, dialysis therapy could also contribute to endocrine disruptors (ED) burden. Indeed, materials like dialyzer filters, ultrapure dialysate and replacement fluid could exposed ESKDD patients to Bisphenol A (BPA) and chlorinated derivatives of BPA (ClxBPAs). Thus, our aim was to compare BPA and ClxBPAs exposure between ESKDD patients, patients with stage 5 chronic kidney disease (CKD5) not dialyzed and healthy volunteers. Then we describe the impact of a single dialysis session, according to dialysis modalities (hemodialysis therapy (HD) versus online hemodiafiltration therapy (HDF)) and materials used with pre-post BPA and ClxBPAs concentrations. The plasma levels of BPA and four ClxBPAs, were assessed for 64 ESKDD patients in pre and post dialysis samples (32 treated by HD and 32 treated by HDF) in 36 CKD5 patients and in 24 healthy volunteers. BPA plasma concentrations were 22.5 times higher for ESKDD patients in pre-dialysis samples versus healthy volunteers (2.208 ± 5.525 ng/mL versus 0.098 ± 0.169 ng/mL) (p < 0.001). BPA plasma concentrations were 16 times higher for CKD5 patients versus healthy volunteers, but it was not significant (1.606 ± 3.230 ng/mL versus 0.098 ± 0.169 ng/mL) (p > 0.05). BPA plasma concentrations for ESKDD patients in pre-dialysis samples were 1.4 times higher versus CKD5 patients (2.208 ± 5.525 ng/mL versus 1.606 ± 3.230 ng/mL) (p < 0.001). For healthy volunteers, ClxBPAs were never detected, or quantified while for CKD5 and ESKDD patients one ClxBPAs at least has been detected or quantified in 14 patients (38.8%) and 24 patients (37.5%), respectively. Dialysis therapy was inefficient to remove BPA either for HD (1.983 ± 6.042 ng/mL in pre-dialysis versus 3.675 ± 8.445 ng/mL in post-dialysis) or HDF (2.434 ± 5.042 ng/mL in pre-dialysis versus 7.462 ± 15.960 ng/mL in post dialysis) regarding pre-post BPA concentrations (p > 0.05). The same result was observed regarding ClxBPA analysis. Presence of polysulfone in dialyzer fibers overexposed ESKDD patients to BPA in pre-dialysis samples with 3.054 ± 6.770 for ESKDD patients treated with a polysulfone dialyzer versus 0.708 ± 0.638 (p = 0.040) for ESKDD patients treated without a polysulfone dialyzer and to BPA in post-dialysis samples with 6.629 ± 13.932 for ESKDD patients treated with a polysulfone dialyzer versus 3.982 ± 11.004 (p = 0.018) for ESKDD patients treated without a polysulfone dialyzer. This work is to our knowledge the first to investigate, the impact of a dialysis session and materials used on BPA and ClxBPAs plasma concentrations and to compare these concentrations to those found in CKD5 patients and in healthy volunteers.

THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2023; 905:167076.

Abstract
Bisphenols are widely used in various branches of industry for the production of plastics. They penetrate to the natural environment and thus living organisms. As endocrine disruptors, bisphenols have adverse effects on various internal organs and systems. Contrary to humans, the knowledge of the exposure of wild terrestrial mammals to bisphenols is extremely limited. Therefore, this study for the first time assessed the exposure level of wild boars to three bisphenols commonly used in industry (i.e. bisphenol A - BPA, bisphenol S - BPS and bisphenol F - BPF) using hair sample analysis in liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS). The presence of BPA and/or BPS has been noted in the samples collected from >80 % of animals included in the study (n = 54), while the presence of BPF was not found in any sample. At least one of the bisphenols was present in every sample tested. Mean concentrations of BPA and BPS in the hair of wild boars were 151.40 ± 135.10 pg/mg dry weight (dw.) and 29.40 ± 36.97 pg./mg dw, respectively. Concentrations of BPA and BPS in females were statistically higher than in males (p < 0.05). Moreover, statistically significantly higher concentration levels of BPA (and not BPS) in the areas with higher degree of industrialization and higher human population density were also found. This is the first study concerning the use of hair samples to assess the exposure of wild terrestrial mammals to bisphenols. The obtained results show that an analysis of the hair may be a useful tool of biomonitoring bisphenols in wild animals. The presence of BPA and BPS in wild boar hair in relatively high concentration also suggests that these substances may have an influence on the health status not only in humans and aquatic animals, but also in wild terrestrial mammals. However, many aspects connected with this issue are not clear and require further study.

Abstract
Endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) were defined as "an exogenous substance or mixture that alters function(s) of the endocrine system and consequently causes adverse health effects". These compounds are mainly eliminated by the renal route. However, patients with end-stage kidney disease treated by dialysis (ESKDD) can no longer eliminate these EDCs efficiently. Furthermore, EDCs exposure could occur via leaching from medical devices used in dialysis therapy. As a result, ESKDD patients are overexposed to EDCs. The aims of this study were to summarize EDCs exposure of ESKDD patients and to evaluate the factors at the origin of this exposure. To handle these objectives, we performed a literature review. An electronic search on PubMed, Embase and Web of science databases was performed. Twenty-six studies were finally included. The EDCs reported in these studies were Bisphenol A (BPA), Bisphenol S (BPS), Bisphenol B (BPB), Nonylphenol, Di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP), Di-n-butyl phthalate (DBP), and Butylbenzyl phthalate (BBP). Regarding the environment of dialysis patients, BPA, BPB, BPS, DEHP, DBP and nonylphenol have been found. Environmental exposure affects EDCs blood levels in ESKDD patients who are overexposed to BPA, BPS, BPB and DEHP. For ESKDD patients, dialyzers with housing in polycarbonate and fibers in polysulfone seem to overexpose them to BPA. Regarding dialysis therapy, peritoneal dialysis seems to decrease patient exposure vs hemodialysis therapy, and hemodiafiltration therapy seems to reduce this exposure vs hemodialysis therapy. Regarding DEHP, levels tend to increase during dialysis and when DEHP plasticizer is used in PVC devices. Finally, in the European Union a regulation on medical devices was adopted on 5 April 2017 and has been applied recently. This regulation will regulate EDCs in medical devices and thereby contribute to reconsideration of their conceptions and, finally, to reduction of ESKDD patients' exposure.

Abstract
Antibiotics are a group of drugs used for the treatment of bacterial diseases. They are used in both human and veterinary medicine and, although they are not permitted, they are sometimes used as growth promoters. The present research compares two extraction techniques: ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) and microwave-assisted extraction (MAE) in order to evaluate their efficiency in the determination of 17 usually prescribed antibiotics in human nails. The extraction parameters were optimized using multivariate techniques. Once both techniques were compared, MAE was selected as optimal due to its greater experimental practicability together with the better extraction efficiencies it provides. Target analytes were detected and quantified by ultra-high performance liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry detection (UHPLC-MS/MS). The run time was 20 min. The methodology was then successfully validated, obtaining acceptable analytical parameters according to the guide used. Limits of detection were between 0.3 and 3 ng g-1 and limits of quantification were in the range from 1.0 to 4.0 ng g-1. Recovery percentages ranged from 87.5% to 114.2%, and precision (in terms of standard deviation) was less than 15% in all cases. Finally, the optimized method was applied to nails taken from 10 volunteers and the results revealed the presence of one or more antibiotics in all the samples examined. The most commonly found antibiotic was sulfamethoxazole, followed by danofloxacin and levofloxacin. The results demonstrated, on the one hand, the presence of these compounds in the human body and, on the other hand, the suitability of nails as a non-invasive biomarker of exposure.

Abstract
Endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) are xenobiotics presented in a variety of everyday products that may disrupt the normal activity of hormones. Exposure to bisphenol A as EDC at trace and ultra-trace levels is associated with adverse health effects, and children are recognized as the most vulnerable group to EDCs exposure. In this review, a summary is presented of up-to-date sample preparation methods and instrumental techniques applied for the detection and quantification of bisphenol A and its structural analogues in various biological matrices. Biological matrices such as blood, cell-free blood products, urine, saliva, breast milk, cordial blood, amniotic and semen fluids, as well as sweat and hair, are very complex; therefore, the detection and later quantification of bisphenols at low levels present a real analytical challenge. The most popular analytical approaches include gas and liquid chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry, and their enhanced reliability and sensitivity finally allow the separation and detection of bisphenols in biological samples, even as ultra-traces. Liquid/liquid extraction (LLE) and solid-phase extraction (SPE) are still the most common methods for their extraction from biological matrices. However, many modern and environmentally safe microextraction techniques are currently under development. The complexity of biological matrices and low concentrations of analytes are the main issues for the limited identification, as well as understanding the adverse health effects caused by chronical and ubiquitous exposure to bisphenols and its analogues.

Abstract
Parabens are alkyl esters of p-hydroxybenzoic acid that are commonly used in pharmaceutical and cosmetic products. Humans are exposed to parabens when they use these products and through diet. There are growing concerns that paraben exposure can adversely impact human health. The endocrine-disrupting and obesogenic properties of parabens have been observed in animal studies and in vitro, prompting the increase in population-based studies of paraben exposure and adiposity-related endpoints. In this review, we summarize epidemiological studies published between 2017 and 2022 that examined paraben exposure in utero, between birth and adolescence, and in adulthood, in relation to adiposity-related measures. Overall, these studies provide some evidence that suggests that paraben exposure, especially during critical development windows, is associated with adiposity-related measures. However, we have noted several limitations in these studies, including the predominance of cross-sectional studies, inconsistent sample collection procedures, and small sample sizes, which should be addressed in future studies.
