Distribution of 21 organic ophospesters and their metabolites in drinking water in Dongcheng District of Beijing and their health hazard assessment in 2023
OBJECTIVE To investigate the pollution of organophosphate esters(OPEs)and their metabolites in drinking water in Dongcheng District of Beijing,and to assess the exposure risk of adults in drinking water.METHODS The contents of 14 OPEs and 7 metabolites in drinking water were determined by automatic solid phase extraction,isotope dilution and liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry.The average daily potential dose(ADD)were calculated based on the recommended intake of drinking water.RESULTS Seventeen pieces of tap water and 30 pieces of packaged drinking water collected by supermarket were measured.OPEs and di-OPEs were widely detected in drinking water(11 kinds of OPEs and 6 kinds of di-OPEs with the detection rate of more than 50％).The ΣOPEs range was 16.8 to 177ng/L,and the Σdi-OPEs range was 0.328 to 16.3 ng/L.The average daily dose of adult population was calculated:the ADD of 14 kinds of ΣOPEs in male and female were 3.15 and 3.10 ng/(kg·BW·d),and the P95 exposure was 6.95 and 7.00 ng/(kg·BW·d),respectively.The ADD of the seven Σdi-OPEs in male and female were 0.150 and 0.147 ng/(kg·BW·d),and the P95 exposure was 0.330 and 0.332 ng/(kg·BW·d),respectively.The hazard quotient(HQ)of exposure to OPEs through drinking water,calculated using the EPA's oral reference dose assessment,was much less than 1.CONCLUSION The current exposure of OPEs via drinking water poses a low health risk to adult residents in Dongcheng District.However,due to the lack of Health-based guidance values for the metabolites of OPEs,the exposure risk may be underestimated.
