PRODUCT DATA SHEET Coprostanol Catalog number: 1116, 1116-k Molecular Formula: C 27 H48 O Common Name: 5-beta -Cholestane-3-beta -ol Molecular Weight: 389 Source: semisynthetic Storage: -20°C Solubility: chloroform, ethyl ether, warm, Purity: TLC >98% methanol TLC System: hexane/ethyl ether, (85:15 by vol) CAS number: 360-68-9 Appearance: solid H H H HO H Application Notes: Coprostanol is formed via the biohydrogentaion of cholesterol in many animals by intestinal bacteria. It is widely used as a biomarker for human fecal matter in the environment, especially in regards to sewage pollution of water sources. 1 Coprostanol can be converted to coprostanone, another important fecal biomarker. Whereas many sterols are found esterified in vivo rather than as free sterols, coprostanol is not usually found esterified and is absorbed through the intestine as a free sterol. 2 After absorption through the intestine a small amount of coprostanol is converted to acidic, neutral, and water soluble compounds. 3 This product is a high purity sterol that is ideal as an analytical standard. 4 Selected References: 1.

Some of these emissions occur through continental aquatic ecosystems, locations of fate and accumulation of organic and inorganic matter. Thus, the aim of this study is to evaluate the origin of organic matter in Rodrigo de Freitas Lagoon, an eutrophic, coastal and chocked lagoon in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, through the determination of n-alkanes and sterols compounds in the upper two centimeters of sediment and compare these data with methane ebullitive flux. The concentrations of n-alkanes varied between 2.43 and 25.82 µg g-1. C29 was predominant compound in most sites, but also with important petrogenic source evidenced by the occurrence of Unresolved Complex Misture. The total concentration of sterols ranged from 2.76 to 56.01 µg g-1. β-sitostanol was the most abundant compound and coprostanol was the most relevant at the sites under -2 -1 -2 -1 influence of domestic effluents. 4CH ebullitive flux averaged 199 mg m d in the dry period and 9.3 mg m d during the wet season.

Fac. Fish., Kagoshima Univ. Vol. 27, No. 1, pp. 41-47 (1978) Conversion of Cholesterol to Coprostanol and Cholestanol in the Estuary Sediment Shin-ichi Teshima* and Akio Kanazawa* Abstract This paper deals with the conversion of cholesterol-4-14C to radioactive coprosta nol, cholestanol, and cholestenone in the estuary sediment from Kagoshima Bay, Kagoshima, Japan. The incubation of cholesterol-4-14C with the sediment and sea water gave radio active coprostanol, cholestanol, and cholestenone. The identification of these radio active compounds was performed by thin-layer chromatography and preparative gas- liquid chromatography followed by radioactive measurements. However, the incu bation of cholesterol-4-14C with sterilized sediment and with sea water (or sterilized sea water) produced extremely small amounts of the above mentioned conversion products. These results indicated that the conversion of cholesterol to coprostanol, cholestanol, and cholestenone is effected by the action of microorganisms in the sediment. Several workers have attempted to use coprostanol (5^-cholestane-3y?-ol) as an indicator of fecal pollution in water1"7*. Since the feces of human and mam mals are regarded as the only source of coprostanol in natural environments, the occurrence of coprostanol has been conceived to be indicative of water pol lution in the cause of human life. As to the marine environments, the authors have pointed out the presence of coprostanol in both sea water and the sediments in Ariake Sea, indicating that the concentration of coprostanol was markedly high in the sediments as com pared with that of sea water7).

However, the geographic distribution, exposure pattern and ecological risk of emerging Chemical pollution organic pollutants are poorly understood at a global scale. This paper provides a comprehensive survey on the Risk assessment exposure level of EOPs in China, the US and the EU based on the published literature. The hazard level of three Pesticide categories of EOPs, namely pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs), pesticides and industrial Industry chemicals was further evaluated by adopting a novel Aquatic HazPi index that jointly accounts for the persis- Pharmaceutical and personal care products tence, bioaccumulation, toxicity and bioactivity. Furthermore, a correlation analysis of land use with the surface Land use water exposure status regarding the synthetic chemicals was conducted.

ABSTRACT The present study deals with the concentration of coprostanol and other sterols in sea water and sediments from the Ariake Sea and in water from the Anraku River. After extraction of lipids with hexane, coprostanol and other sterols were isolated by column chromatography on alumina with hexane-benzene. The quantitative determination of sterols was carried out by gas-liquid chromatography on 1.5% OV -17, using cholestane as an internai standard. Sea water and sediment samples from the Ariake Sea contained substantial amounts of coprostanol and a large amount of cholesterol. Coprostanol concentrations ranged from 0.06 to 1.05 j.tgjl of sea water, and from 0.02 to 1.77 j.tg/g of dry sediment, respectively. Coprostanol was also detected in the water of the Anraku River, polluted with the sewage from swineries upstream. These data show how coprostanol may be used as an indicator for the detection offaecal contamination in marine environments. Oceanol. Acta, 1978, 1, 1, 39-44.

The concentration of 1 the major sewage biomarker, coprostanol, in water overlying the oysters varied between 0.01 µg L− 1 and 1.20 µg L− . The coprostanol/epicoprostanol ratio ranged from 1.32 (September) to 33.25 (February), suggesting that human sewage represents the key input of faecal material into the estuary. However, a correlation between the sterol profile of water above the oysters with that of water that enters from Tiptree Sewage Treatment Works (r = 0.82), and a sample from a site (Quinces Corner) observed to have a high population of Brent geese (r = 0.82), suggests that both sources contribute to the faecal pollution affecting the oysters.
