17β-Estradiol residues and estrogenic activities in the Hawkesbury River, Australia
چکیده انگلیسی
Two highly sensitive ELISAs for the specific detection of 17β-estradiol (E2) residues were developed, showing the limits of detection (LOD, a concentration at 15% inhibition of color development) of 0.04 ± 0.02 μg/L and 0.05 ± 0.03 μg/L. The average recovery rate of the river water samples spiked with E2 at 1-50 ng/L range was 111.5% (68.6-252%) with the % relative standard deviation (RSD) of 0.5-86.3%. The ELISA demonstrated a good correlation with the GC-MS analyses of the spiked river water samples (r = 0.909). Applying the developed E2 ELISA assay to the monitoring of E2 residues in Hawkesbury River (New South Wales, Australia) found that all the tested creek samples contained E2 residues less than the biologically significant level of 10 ng/L. However, 25% of the water samples tested demonstrated the estrogen activity (determined by the yeast estrogen screening (YES) assay) above the levels that have been linked to the adverse effects in fish and other aquatic organisms (> 20 E2 Eq ng/L). It was apparent that the E2 residues together with the EE2 residues (reported in our previous study) contributed to most of the observed estrogenic activity in Hawkesbury River.
