Abstract

In this paper, the spatial distribution of 31 endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs), including androgens, estrogens, progesterones, glucocorticoids and industrial compounds, in the water source of upstream Huangpu River was studied, and the risk quotient method (RQ) was used to assess the ecological risk of EDCs in water. Both glucocorticoids and progesterones were not detected at 9 sampling sites. The detection frequency of industrial bisphenols was 100%. The maximum detectable concentration of most substances were lower than 10 ng·L^-1, while BPA was detected the highest concentration (26.00-64.32 ng·L^-1). Industrial compounds and estrogens were the main detectable substances with BPA as the predominant pollutant at each sampling point. The total concentration of EDCs in Lianxi Bridge was the highest(103.66 ng·L^-1) while that of Reservoir Entrance was the lowest (40.16 ng·L^-1). The total concentration of industrial compounds in the upper reaches of Taipu River was higher than that in the lower reaches. The highest total concentration of estrogens was detected in Fen lake Bridge(11.70 ng·L^-1). Compared with the concentrations of EDCs in surface water in China and abroad, EDCs in the water source of upstream Huangpu River was at low and medium pollution levels. Ecological risk assessment was carried out for 4 EDCs, including Diethylstilbestrol, Estriol, Bisphenol A and Bisphenol S, the range of RQ was 0.006-2.5, and BPS showed a higher environmental risk (RQ=2.5).
