Abstract

Artificial sweeteners (ASs) and dyes are widely used in foods, beverages and pharmaceutical and are recognized as emerging environmental contaminants due to their persistence and widespread occurrence. These substances often pass through the human body unchanged and resist wastewater treatment processes, leading to continuous introduction into aquatic environments and potential long-lasting term environmental effects. This study investigated, for the first time, the biodegradability of nine commercial dietary supplements, both natural and those containing ASs and synthetic dyes, using the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) 301 F ready biodegradation test (RBT), which is a respirometry-manometric method. While the products showed good biodegradability, those containing ASs and dyes were further studied to determine their fate at the end of the RBT. The study involved developing and validating a chromatographic method to quantitatively determine the presence of Acesulfame K (1), Sucralose (2), Tartrazine (3) and Carmoisine (4) in the RBT mineral medium, using ultra-high performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC) coupled with two detectors: a high-resolution mass-spectrometer with quadrupole time-of-flight (qToF) and a UV-Vis diode array detector (DAD). Results indicated that these additives were not readily biodegraded, highlighting a potential significant environmental concern. This issue extends beyond dietary supplements to all Pharmaceutical and Personal Care Products (PPCP) including drugs and medical devices. The findings underscore the importance of raising cultural awareness about the environmental impact of persistent substances, encouraging the healthcare chain and patients to make informed choices. From a One Health perspective, reducing environmental contamination can lead to positive outcomes for human health.

摘要

人工甜味剂(ASs)和染料广泛应用于食品、饮料及制药行业,因其持久性和广泛存在而被视为新出现的环境污染物。这些物质通常未经变化就通过人体,并能抵抗废水处理过程,导致不断进入水生环境并可能产生长期的环境影响。本研究首次使用经济合作与发展组织(OECD)301 F 快速生物降解试验(RBT),这是一种测压呼吸法,研究了九种市售膳食补充剂的生物降解性,这些补充剂既有天然的,也有含人工甜味剂和合成染料的。虽然这些产品显示出良好的生物降解性,但对那些含人工甜味剂和染料的产品进行了进一步研究,以确定它们在RBT试验结束时的去向。该研究涉及开发和验证一种色谱方法,使用超高效液相色谱(UHPLC)结合两个检测器:四极杆飞行时间高分辨率质谱仪(qToF)和紫外可见二极管阵列检测器(DAD),定量测定RBT矿物培养基中乙酰磺胺酸钾(1)、三氯蔗糖(2)、柠檬黄(3)和胭脂红(4)的存在。结果表明,这些添加剂不易生物降解,突出了一个潜在的重大环境问题。这个问题不仅限于膳食补充剂,还涉及所有药品和个人护理产品(PPCP),包括药物和医疗器械。研究结果强调了提高文化意识以认识持久性物质对环境影响的重要性,鼓励医疗保健链和患者做出明智选择。从“同一健康”的角度来看,减少环境污染可对人类健康产生积极影响。
