TLDR
An in situ derivatization solid-phase microextraction method has been developed for the determination of parabens, triclosan and related chlorophenols in water and quantification can readily be carried out by external calibration with ultrapure water standards.Citations

Parabens. From environmental studies to human health.
TL;DR: This paper provides holistic overview of paraben usage, occurrence in the environment, methods of their degradation and removal from aqueous solution, as well as hazards related to their endocrine disrupting potential and possible involvement in carcinogenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Occurrence, fate and behavior of parabens in aquatic environments: a review
TL;DR: Being compounds containing phenolic hydroxyl groups, parabens can react readily with free chlorine, yielding halogenated by-products, which are more stable and persistent than the parent species and further studies are needed to improve knowledge regarding their toxicity.

Occurrence and toxicity of antimicrobial triclosan and by-products in the environment
Gilles Bedoux,Gilles Bedoux,Benoit Roig,Olivier Thomas,Virginie Dupont,Virginie Dupont,Barbara Le Bot +6 more
TL;DR: The excessive use of triclosan is suspected to increase the risk of emergence of TCS-resistant bacteria and the selection of resistant strains, as well as to produce cytotoxic, genot toxic, and endocrine disruptor effects.

TL;DR: In this article, the basic principles of the advanced technologies used for EDC control in water and wastewater are critically discussed with specific reference to their engineering as well as the environmental and sanitary impacts associated with EDCs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Use of a capillary tube for collecting an extraction solvent lighter than water after dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction and its application in the determination of parabens in different samples by gas chromatography--flame ionization detection.
TL;DR: A new dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (DLLME) method is presented on the basis of a safe organic solvent, octanol, which is lighter than water, that is used for the extraction and pre-concentration of some preservatives including methyl paraben (Mep), ethyl parabens (Etp) and propyl parABen (Prp) from different matrices.

Safety assessment of esters of p-hydroxybenzoic acid (parabens)
TL;DR: The possible estrogenic hazard of parabens on the basis of the available studies is equivocal, and fails to consider the metabolism and elimination rates ofParabens, which are dose, route, and species dependent.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors performed quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) analyses that suggested a propensity of TCC to persist in various environmental compartments with predicted half-lives ranging from 0.75 days in air to 540 days in sediment.
