摘要

Abstract

Environmental variability (e.g.

temperature

salinity

pH) and seasonal fluctuations in pollutant concentrations often hinder the establishment of reliable reference sites in marine biomonitoring

challenging the accurate assessment of pollutant-induced biological effects. This study employed tiered biomonitoring and assessment approaches to evaluate endocrine disrupting compounds (EDCs) using embryos of

Oryzias

melastigma

in the Jiulong River estuary (JRE) and nearby coastal seas of China

that are characterized by significant environmental variability and distinct seasonal fluctuations in pollutant concentrations. The findings demonstrated that the levels of alkylphenols and bisphenol A in the JRE and nearby coastal seas are relatively low to moderate in contrast to those found in other regions of the world. Consistent evidence from the chemical analyses

expression patterns of five EDC-inducible genes

and both integrated biomarker response (IBR) and integrated biomarker response version 2 (IBRv2) tiered-assessment systems identified sites S10 and S11 (Xiamen Western Harbor) as exhibiting the most severe EDC pollution. Correlation analysis confirmed the approximate functional equivalence between IBR and tiered-assessment approaches. It also demonstrated that IBR tiered-assessment approach provides a robust tool for biomonitoring in marine environments where establishing reference site is challenging.
