Évaluation Du Danger Écotoxicologique Et Priorisation Des Fragrances Synthétiques Présentes Dans Les Produits De Soins Corporels Ou Dans Les Détergents ÉVALUATION DU DANGER ÉCOTOXICOLOGIQUE ET PRIORISATION DES FRAGRANCES SYNTHÉTIQUES PRÉSENTES DANS LES PRODUITS DE SOINS CORPORELS OU DANS LES DÉTERGENTS Par Louis-Simon Bolduc Essai présenté au Centre universitaire de formation en environnement et développement durable en vue de l’obtention du grade de maître en environnement (M. Env.) Sous la direction de madame Mélanie Desrosiers MAÎTRISE EN ENVIRONNEMENT UNIVERSITÉ DE SHERBROOKE Novembre 2018 SOMMAIRE Mots clés : Fragrances, évaluation des dangers écotoxicologiques, démarche de priorisation, outil de priorisation, indice PBT/vPvB. L’objectif général de cet essai consiste à évaluer les dangers écotoxicologiques potentiels des fragrances et à réaliser un exercice de priorisation des besoins d’études complémentaires concernant, plus particulièrement, les fragrances synthétiques présentes dans les produits de soins corporels ou dans les détergents. L’évaluation des dangers écologiques se base sur une revue de littérature qui permet de documenter la présence et la persistance des fragrances dans l’environnement en plus de leur potentiel de bioaccumulation et de toxicité. De plus, l’exercice de priorisation se réalise à l’aide d’une démarche de priorisation en conception au ministère de l’Environnement et de Lutte contre les changements climatiques. Cette démarche utilise différents critères d’évaluation basés sur la persistance, la bioaccumulation et la toxicité potentielle des substances à l’étude. Actuellement, un grand nombre de fragrances sont produites annuellement sans toutefois dresser un portrait complet de leurs effets potentiels sur l’environnement. Leur présence dans l’environnement provient principalement des effluents municipaux dans lesquels sont retrouvés plusieurs contaminants d’intérêt émergent, dont les fragrances. Vingt-deux fragrances ont ainsi été documentées et soumises à l’exercice de priorisation et à l’évaluation du danger écotoxicologique. L’étude des substances, dont leur odeur de type ambré et animal, démontre que peu de données expérimentales sont disponibles et que le recours à des données modélisées s’est avéré nécessaire. L’exercice de priorisation a d’ailleurs permis d’identifier, en appliquant un processus de précaution, onze substances avec un potentiel de danger plus important dans l’eau, c'est-à-dire, l’isocyclemone E, l’ambre kétal, le galaxolide, le moscène, le musc xylène, le musc cétone, le musc tibétène, l’ambre spirolène, le musc ambrette et le romandolide. Dans les sédiments, trois substances avec un potentiel de danger important ont été identifiées, soit l’helvetolide, le romandolide et le galaxolide, alors que dans les sols, deux substances ont été identifiées, soit le galaxolide et le musc xylène. Le manque de données dans les sédiments joue d’ailleurs un rôle important dans le classement, puisque 17 substances sur 22 n’ont pu être classées. Pour conclure, la revue de littérature et l’exercice de priorisation permettent d’affirmer que des études écotoxicologiques seraient pertinentes pour un grand nombre de ces fragrances principalement dans les sédiments. De plus, la présence de ces fragrances dans les effluents municipaux et dans des eaux de surface américaines, européennes et asiatiques démontre la pertinence de mettre en place des méthodes d’analyses et des suivis environnementaux au Québec afin de s’assurer de la présence ou non de ces substances dans les milieux aquatiques québécois. i REMERCIEMENTS Je tiens d’abord à remercier sincèrement ma directrice, Mélanie Desrosiers, pour ses conseils, ses explications, ses relectures tout au long de mon parcours de rédaction.

    toxins Article Suspect and Target Screening of Natural Toxins in the Ter River Catchment Area in NE Spain and Prioritisation by Their Toxicity Massimo Picardo 1 , Oscar Núñez 2,3 and Marinella Farré 1,* 1 Department of Environmental Chemistry, IDAEA-CSIC, 08034 Barcelona, Spain; [email protected] 2 Department of Chemical Engineering and Analytical Chemistry, University of Barcelona, 08034 Barcelona, Spain; [email protected] 3 Serra Húnter Professor, Generalitat de Catalunya, 08034 Barcelona, Spain * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 5 October 2020; Accepted: 26 November 2020; Published: 28 November 2020 Abstract: This study presents the application of a suspect screening approach to screen a wide range of natural toxins, including mycotoxins, bacterial toxins, and plant toxins, in surface waters. The method is based on a generic solid-phase extraction procedure, using three sorbent phases in two cartridges that are connected in series, hence covering a wide range of polarities, followed by liquid chromatography coupled to high-resolution mass spectrometry. The acquisition was performed in the full-scan and data-dependent modes while working under positive and negative ionisation conditions. This method was applied in order to assess the natural toxins in the Ter River water reservoirs, which are used to produce drinking water for Barcelona city (Spain). The study was carried out during a period of seven months, covering the expected prior, during, and post-peak blooming periods of the natural toxins. Fifty-three (53) compounds were tentatively identified, and nine of these were confirmed and quantified. Phytotoxins were identified as the most frequent group of natural toxins in the water, particularly the alkaloids group.

  • Other Data Relevant to an Evaluation of Carcinogenicity and Its Mechanisms
    WOOD DUST 173 3.5 Experimental data on wood shavings It has been suggested in several studies that cedar wood shavings, used as bedding for animaIs, are implicated in the prominent differences in the incidences of spontaneous liver and mammar tumours in mice, mainly of the C3H strain, maintained in different laboratories (Sabine et al., 1973; Sabine, 1975). Others (Heston, 1975) have attributed these variations in incidence to different conditions of animal maintenance, such as food consumption, infestation with ectoparasites and general condition of health, rather than to use of cedar shavings as bedding. Additional attempts to demonstrate carcinogenic properties of cedar shavings used as bedding materIal for mice of the C3H (Vlahakis, 1977) and SWJ/Jac (Jacobs & Dieter, 1978) strains were not successful. ln no ne of these studies were there control groups not exposed to cedar shavings. 4. Other Data Relevant to an Evaluation of Carcinogenicity and its Mechanisms 4.1 Deposition and clearance 4.1.1 Humans No studies of the deposition of wood dust in human airways were available to the Working Group. Particle deposition in the airways has been the object of several studies (for reviews, see Brain & Valberg, 1979; Warheit, 1989). Large particles (? 10 ¡.m) are almost entirely deposited in the nose; the deposition of smaUer particles depends on size but also on flow rates and type of breathing (mouth or nose); there is also inter-individual variation (Technical Committee of the Inhalation Specialty Section, Society of T oxicology, 1987). Particles deposited in the nasal airways are removed by mucociliary transport (for reviews, see Proctor, 1982; Warheit, 1989).

Based on screening data it is not fulfilling the PBT/vPvB criteria. A test on ready biodegradation is available with tall-oil rosin showing ready biodegradation of the test substance. The P-screening criterion is therefore not fulfilled. Regarding the B-criterion, an experimentally determined log Kow of 3.6 at pH 7 is available. Based on this value a BCF of 56 was calculated with QSAR. The B- screening criterion is therefore not fulfilled. Based on acute aquatic toxicity results with L/EC50 above 100 mg/L the screening T-criterion is not fulfilled. Data on individual constituents are not available. Based on QSAR there is no clear picture regarding persistence, bioaccumulation and toxicity because the constituents have pKa values around environmentally relevant pH values. However, no further testing is considered necessary as tall-oil rosin is readily biodegradable.

  • Colophony (Rosin) Allergy: More Than Just Christmas Trees
    Clinical AND Health Affairs Colophony (rosin) allergy: more than just Christmas trees BY LINDSEY M. VOLLER, BA; REBECCA S. KIMYON, BS; AND ERIN M. WARSHAW, MD Colophony (rosin) is a sticky resin derived from pine trees and a recognized cause of allergic contact dermatitis (ACD), a type IV hypersensitivity reaction.1 It is present in many products (Table 1) and is a common culprit of allergic reactions to adhesive products including adherent bandages and ostomy devices. ACD to colophony in pine wood is less common although has been reported from occupational exposures,2 as well as consumer contact with wooden jewelry, furniture, toilet seats, and sauna furnishings.3 We present a patient with recurrent contact dermatitis following exposure to various wood products over the course of one year.

  • Rapid Discrimination of Fatty Acid Composition in Fats and Oils by Electrospray Ionization Mass Spectrometry
    ANALYTICAL SCIENCES DECEMBER 2005, VOL. 21 1457 2005 © The Japan Society for Analytical Chemistry Rapid Discrimination of Fatty Acid Composition in Fats and Oils by Electrospray Ionization Mass Spectrometry Shoji KURATA,*† Kazutaka YAMAGUCHI,* and Masatoshi NAGAI** *Criminal Investigation Laboratory, Metropolitan Police Department, 2-1-1, Kasumigaseki, Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo 100–8929, Japan **Graduate School of Bio-Applications and Systems Engineering, Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology, 2-24-16 Nakamachi, Koganei, Tokyo 184–8588, Japan Fatty acids in 42 types of saponified vegetable and animal oils were analyzed by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) for the development of their rapid discrimination. The compositions were compared with those analyzed by gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC-MS), a more conventional method used in the discrimination of fats and oils. Fatty acids extracted with 2-propanol were detected as deprotonated molecular ions ([M–H]–) in the ESI-MS spectra of the negative-ion mode. The composition obtained by ESI-MS corresponded to the data of the total ion chromatograms by GC-MS. The ESI-MS analysis discriminated the fats and oils within only one minute after starting the measurement. The detection limit for the analysis was approximately 10–10 g as a sample amount analyzed for one minute. This result showed that the ESI-MS analysis discriminated the fats and oils much more rapidly and sensitively than the GC-MS analysis, which requires several tens of minutes and approximately 10–9 g. Accordingly, the ESI-MS analysis was found to be suitable for a screening procedure for the discrimination of fats and oils.

Illman Received: 27 February 2006 /Revised: 14 August 2006 /Accepted: 24 August 2006 / Published online: 3 November 2006 # Springer Science + Business Media, Inc. 2006 Abstract Diterpene resin acids are major constituents of conifer oleoresin and play important roles in tree defense against insects and microbial pathogens. The tricyclic C-20 carboxylic acids are generally classified into two groups, the abietanes and the pimaranes. The abietanes have conjugated double bonds and exhibit characteristic UV spectra. Here, we report the analysis of abietanes by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatog­ raphy using multiwavelength detection to optimize quantification of underivatized abietic, neoabietic, palustric, levopimaric, and dehydroabietic acids. The utility of the method is demonstrated with methanol extracts of white Piceaspruce glauca () phloem, and representative concentrations are reported. Keywords Abietic . Neoabietic . Palustric . Levopimaric . Dehydroabietic . White spruce. Diterpenes . HPLC Introduction Resin acids have been shown to have broad and highly active biological properties, being involved, for example, in both constitutive and induced plant defenses against numerous insects and microorganisms (Björkman and1993 Gref,; Franich and Gadgil,1983 ; Gref 1987; Kopper et 2005al.,). The high concentrations, patterns of storage, and elicitation by both herbivore feeding and pathogen infection further suggest important defensive roles (Gref and Ericsson,1985 ; Tomlin et 2000al., ).

Abstract: The increased complexity due to the emergence and rapid spread of new viral infections prompts researchers to search for potential antiviral and protective agents for mucous membranes among various natural objects, for example, plant raw materials, their individual components, as well as the products of their chemical modification. Due to their structure, resin acids are valuable raw materials of natural origin to synthesize various bioactive substances. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to confirm the possibility of using resin acid derivatives for the drug design. As a result, we studied the cytotoxicity and biological activity of resin acid derivatives. It was shown that a slight decrease in the viral load in the supernatants was observed upon stimulation of cells (II) compared with the control. When using PASS-online modeling (Prediction of Activity Spectra for Substances), the prediction of the biological activity spectrum showed that compound (I) is capable of exhibiting antiviral activity against the influenza virus.

  • The Purpose of Fume Extraction This Article Is Based On
    The Purpose of Fume Extraction This article is based on an original publication by Hakko. Solder technicians inhaling flux smoke for prolonged periods of time may develop short- and long-term respiratory illnesses, eye irritations, headaches and more. The activators found in fluxes are often organic compounds that release byproducts of incomplete combustion when heated. Byproducts containing noxious fumes, particulate matter, aerosols and gasses may be responsible for workers’ symptoms. Therefore, the extraction of fumes is necessary to minimize exposure to contaminants. Flux types include resin-based, no-clean and water-soluble. Resin-based flux is the oldest, most popular and the most effective. It primarily consists of colophony, a complex resin found in pine trees and linked to allergic reactions. The active agents are abietic and plicatic acids, which react with the metallic oxides on the joint to facilitate wetting. When these organic acids are exposed to high temperatures and combine with oxygen they yield products of partial combustion. These products may irritate the skin and eyes or worsen existing respiratory conditions. Abietic acid at room temperature may also cause skin irritations. Some resin-based fluxes facilitate soldering by making the compound more acidic than usual with the addition of organic fatty acids or other chemical activators. This addition may introduce more airborne irritants. Resin-based flux leaves a residue on the board upon completion that must be cleaned. Usually isopropyl alcohol or methyl alcohol is used for this purpose as they are effective, fast and inexpensive. However, alcohol fumes may be offensive. No-clean fluxes do not leave a residue behind, so no cleaning is required after use.
