Adverse Outcome Pathway Network-Based Assessment of the Interactive Effects of an Androgen Receptor Agonist and an Aromatase Inhibitor on Fish Endocrine Function

Adverse outcome pathway (AOP) networks potentially provide a basis for predictive approaches to assess the toxicity of chemical mixtures. This study evaluated the utility of a simple AOP network to predict the interactive effects of a binary chemical mixture comprised of an inhibitor of the aromatase enzyme (fadrozole, a human pharmaceutical) and an agonist of the androgen receptor (trenbolone, a veterinary drug). Overall, prediction of interactive effects of the two chemicals based on the AOP network did not match actual observed effects. Rather, the two compounds seemed to interact in an independent manner in terms of their effects on the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis in the fish.

Saunders et al._Dietary bioaccumulation and biotransformation of hydrophobic organic sunscreen agents in rainbow trout

Organic ultraviolet filters (UVFs; also known as sunscreen agents) used in personal care and consumer products can enter the aquatic environment via wastewater treatment plant effluents or by loss from skin during swimming and other recreational activities.  Some UVFs are hydrophobic (log Kow > 4) which has led to concern that they may bioaccumulate in aquatic organisms.  The purpose of this study was to investigate the bioaccumulation and biotransformation of two widely-used UVFs, 2-ethylhexyl-4-methoxycinnamate (EHMC) and octocrylene (OCT) in rainbow trout exposed via the diet.  EHMC and OCT were significantly metabolized by trout and this metabolism substantially reduced bioaccumulation relative to levels observed for a set of poorly transformed chemicals having similar log Kow values.  Derived bioconcentration factors (BCFs) and biomagnification factors (BMFs) for both UVFs were well below established bioaccumulation criteria, suggesting that EHMC and OCT are unlikely to pose a bioaccumulation hazard in trout.  This research substantially increases existing knowledge concerning the fate and effects of UVFs in the environment.

Examining NTA Performance and Potential Using Fortified and Reference House Dust as Part of EPA's Non-Targeted Analysis Collaborative Trial (ENTACT)

The current study focuses on the analysis of SRM 2585 extracts that were distributed as part of ENTACT. It further introduces a separate recovery experiment, using SRM 2585, designed to shed light on factors that affect analyte loss during extraction, cleanup, instrumental analysis, and data processing. Many compounds have been measured and reported in SRM 2585 to date; cross-referencing these compounds against those detected via NTA provides a unique means with which to critically evaluate NTA performance in a real-world context. The recovery experiment described herein further informs factors (e.g., matrix, extraction procedures) that influence compound identification using NTA. Finally, by analyzing the same mixture of compounds at different concentrations and in the presence and absence of dust matrix, the performance of NTA is evaluated here from a quantitative perspective, rather than a typical qualitative perspective.

New Jersey NJDEP/EPA-ORD soil PFAS study

The toxicity and environmental persistence of anthropogenic per- and poly-fluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are of concern globally.  To address legacy PFAS concerns in the US, industry developed numerous replacement PFAS that commonly are treated as confidential information.  To investigate the distribution of PFAS in New Jersey (NJ), soils collected from across the state were subjected to nontargeted mass-spectral analyses.  Ten chloro-perfluoro-polyether-carboxylates were tentatively identified, with ≥3 congeners in all samples.  Nine congeners are ≥(CF2)7.  Distinct chemical formulas and structures, as well as geographic distribution, suggest airborne transport from an industrial source.  Lighter congeners dispersed more widely than heavier, with the most widely dispersed detected in an in-stock New Hampshire sample.  Additional data were used to develop a legacy-PFAS fingerprint for historical PFAS sources in NJ.
