One component includes hydroxybenzoic acid, hydroxybenzoate, and hy- droxybenzoic acid salt, and another component includes a variety of organic compounds ͑hydrocarbons, alcohols, halogenated hydrocarbons, carboxylic acids, esters, et al.͒ and carbon dioxide. The ternary systems include mixtures of organic substances of various classes and carbon dioxide. The total number of compilation sheets is 270 for six types of system. Almost all data are expressed as mass percent and mole fraction as well as the originally reported units, while some data are expressed as molar concentration. Critical evaluation was carried out for the binary nonaqueous systems of 2-, 3-, and 4-hydroxybenzoic acids and hydroxybenzoates ͑methylparaben, ethylparaben, propylpa- raben, and butylparaben͒ in alcohols, 1-heptane, and benzene. © 2011 American Institute of Physics. ͓doi:10.1063/1.3569816͔ Key words: hydroxybenzoic acid; hydroxybenzoic acid salt; nonaqueous systems; paraben; salicylic acid; solubility.

It may be used either alone or in combination with other paraben esters or with other antimicrobial agents. In cosmetics it is one of the most frequently used preservatives. The parabens are effective over a wide pH range and have a broad spectrum of antimicrobial activity, although they are most effective against yeasts and molds; see Section 10. Owing to the poor solubility of the parabens, paraben salts, particularly the sodium salt, are frequently used. However, this may cause the pH of poorly buffered formulations to become more alkaline. See Methylparaben for further information. 8 Description Ethylparaben occurs as a white, odorless or almost odorless, active against yeasts and molds than against bacteria. They crystalline powder. are also more active against Gram-positive than against Gram-negative bacteria. 9 Pharmacopeial Specifications The activity of the parabens increases with increasing chain See Table I.

  • Occurrence of Pharmaceuticals and Personal Care Products in the Water Environment of Poland: a Review

Witkowski Institute of Earth Sciences, Faculty of Natural Sciences, University of Silesia in Katowice, 60 B˛edzi´nskaSt., 41-200 Sosnowiec, Poland; [email protected] (S.J.-K.); [email protected] (J.R.); [email protected] (A.J.W.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: The issue of pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) in the water environment has gained increasing interest worldwide. To determine the nature and extent of this problem for Poland, this paper presents a review of research on the presence of PPCPs in Poland, looking at results for different water samples, including wastewater (before and after treatment), landfill leachate, surface water (standing water bodies and rivers), seawater, groundwater and drinking water. The review is based on over 50 scientific articles and dissertations referring to studies of PPCPs. It also briefly outlines possible sources and the fate of PPCPs in the aquatic environment. The review of Polish research has revealed that studies have previously covered at least 39 PPCP groups (270 compounds in total). These studies focused mainly on wastewater and rivers, and only a few concerned landfill leachate and seawater. They most often reported on nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and antibiotics. The highest concentrations of the analysed PPCPs were found mainly in raw wastewater (e.g., naproxen, up to 551,960 ng/L), but they were also occasionally found in surface Citation: Slósarczyk,´ K.; water (e.g., azithromycin, erythromycin, irbesartan and metoprolol) and in groundwater (e.g., N,N- Jakóbczyk-Karpierz, S.; Rózkowski,˙ J.; diethyl-meta-toluamide, known as DEET, up to 17,280 ng/L).

The evolution of analytical techniques allowed the detection of these compounds in different sources at µg/L and ng/L. Until today, parabens were already found in water sources, air, soil and even in human tissues. The impact of parabens in humans, animals and in ecosystems are a matter of discussion within the scientific community, but it is proven that parabens can act as endocrine dis- ruptors, and some reports suggest that they are carcinogenic compounds. The presence of parabens in ecosystems is mainly related to wastewater discharges. This work gives an overview about the paraben problem, starting with their characteristics and applications. Moreover, the dangers related to their usage were addressed through the evaluation of toxicological studies over different species as well as of humans. Considering this, paraben detection in different water sources, wastewater treatment plants, humans and animals was analyzed based on literature results. A review of Euro- pean legislation regarding parabens was also performed, presenting some considerations for the use Citation: Lincho, J.; Martins, R.C.; of parabens.
