[Spatial distribution of three endocrine disrupting chemicals in sediments of the Suzhou Creek and their environmental risks].

Three environmental endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs), named nonylphenol (NP), octylphenol (4-t-OP) and bisphenol A (BPA), in sediments of the Suzhou Creek and its branches were detected using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) method. The results showed that the concentration of three chemicals varied greatly from site to site, which ranged from < 1.0-5 800, < 0.
