摘要

Abstract

The composition of chlorophenols in marine organisms from the southern coast of Hangzhou Bay

China

was analyzed and the health risks posed to humans assessed. A total of 19 chlorophenols from 16 types of marine organism were analyzed across nine survey sections in Hangzhou Bay. The chlorophenols were analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry using a DB-5MS quartz capillary column. The concentrations of monochlorophenol

dichlorophenol

trichlorophenol

tetrachlorophenol

and pentachlorophenol ranged from below the detection limit (ND) to 132 μg/kg

ND-51.0 μg/kg

ND-42.5 μg/kg

ND-69.0 μg/kg

and ND-9.06 μg/kg

respectively. Additionally

concentration differences between each type of chlorophenol were not significant (

0.05). However

significant differences were found between monochlorophenol (

=8.13

0.01) and total chlorophenol (

=5.19

0.01) concentrations. As the noncarcinogenic risk indices were

0.1 (10

-5

-10

-2

) for all of the organisms

no high risk was posed by 2-chlorophenol

4-dichlorophenol

6-trichlorophenol

5-trichlorophenol

6-tetrachlorophenol

and pentachlorophenol to humans consuming marine organisms from the study area. Furthermore

the carcinogenic risks posed by 2

6-trichlorophenol and pentachlorophenol were lower than limits set by the International Commission on Radiological Protection and the US Environmental Protection Agency. However

the noncarcinogenic and carcinogenic risks posed by chlorophenols in marine organisms from four of the survey sections (Sizaopu

Niluoshan

Longshan Town and Xinhong zha) were higher than the other survey sections.
