Here, fifteen OPEs were investigated in n = 50 floor dust samples collected from six types of indoor spaces in Nanjing, eastern China, in the year 2018. Ten OPEs, including tris(2-chloroethyl) phosphate (TCEP), tris(2-chloroisopropyl) phosphate (TCIPP), tris(1,3-dichloro-isopropyl) phosphate (TDCIPP), tris(2-ethylhexyl) phosphate (TEHP), tris(2-butoxyethyl) phosphate (TBOEP), 2-ethylhexyl-diphenyl phosphate (EHDPP), triphenyl phosphate (TPHP), tris(methyl-phenyl) phosphate (TMPP), 4-biphenylyl diphenyl phosphate (4-BPDP) and tris(2-biphenylyl) phosphate (TBPP), were detected in at least one of the analyzed samples (>method limits of quantification). Regardless of indoor spaces, EHDPP (34% of ΣOPEs, mean: 1.43 μg/g) and TDCIPP (19%, 0.81 μg/g) were the ascendant OPEs in indoor floor dust. 4-BPDP and TBPP were detectable in indoor floor dust samples, but at relatively low detection frequencies with 2% and 10%, respectively. Various indoor microenvironments exhibited different pollution characteristics of OPEs. Floor dust collected from electronic product maintenance centers contained the richest OPE contaminants with highest mean ΣOPEs concentration of 7.92 μg/g. On the basis of measured ΣOPEs concentrations in dust sample, we estimated daily intake via floor dust ingestion to be 1.37, 0.75 and 1.24 ng/kg BW/day for electronic engineers, undergraduates, and graduate students under mean-exposure scenario, respectively. Overall, our study reported the occurrence of 4-BPDP and TBPP in environmental samples for the first time, and demonstrated that indoor floor dust ingestion exposure does values were far less than reference dosage values of oral toxicity proposed by United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) Integrated Risk Information System.
这里,在 2018 年,从中国东部南京市的六种室内空间采集了 50 个地板灰尘样本,共研究了 15 种 OPEs。在至少一个分析样本中检测到了十种 OPEs,包括三(2-氯乙基)磷酸酯(TCEP)、三(2-氯异丙基)磷酸酯(TCIPP)、三(1,3-二氯异丙基)磷酸酯(TDCIPP)、三(2-乙基己基)磷酸酯(TEHP)、三(2-丁氧基乙基)磷酸酯(TBOEP)、2-乙基己基二苯基磷酸酯(EHDPP)、磷酸三苯酯(TPHP)、三(甲基苯基)磷酸酯(TMPP)、4-联苯基二苯基磷酸酯(4-BPDP)和三(2-联苯基)磷酸酯(TBPP)(>方法检出限)。无论室内空间如何,EHDPP(ΣOPEs 的 34%,平均值:1.43μg/g)和 TDCIPP(19%,0.81μg/g)是室内地板灰尘中占主导地位的 OPEs。在室内地板灰尘样本中可检测到 4-BPDP 和 TBPP,但检测频率相对较低,分别为 2%和 10%。各种室内微环境表现出不同的 OPE 污染特征。从电子产品维修中心收集的地板灰尘含有最丰富的 OPE 污染物,ΣOPEs 浓度平均值最高,为 7.92μg/g。基于灰尘样本中测量的ΣOPEs 浓度,我们估计在平均暴露情景下,电子工程师、本科生和研究生通过地板灰尘摄入的每日摄入量分别为 1.37、0.75 和 1.24ng/kg BW/day。总体而言,我们的研究首次报道了 4-BPDP 和 TBPP 在环境样本中的出现,并表明室内地板灰尘摄入暴露值远低于美国环保署(USEPA)综合风险信息系统提出的口服毒性参考剂量值。
