Article Abstract
This study established a simple and rapid method for simultaneous determination of short-chain chlorinated paraffins (SCCPs) and medium-chain chlorinated paraffins (MCCPs) in human serum by high performance liquid chromatography coupled with electron spray ionization quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (HPLC-ESI-Q-TOF/MS). A simple pretreatment procedure of protein precipitation by acetonitrile coupled with liquid-liquid extraction by n-hexane was employed for extraction and purification. The purified samples were separated by a PFP chromatographic column. This method could effectively eliminate the matrix effect by lipids and other matrix substances in serum samples with less time and solvent consuming. 76 congener groups of SCCPs and MCCPs with C-C and Cl-Cl were quantified by their [M-H] ions. Method detection limit (MDL) were 1.0-8.0 ng mL for ∑SCCPs and ∑MCCPs. Recoveries were 98.4 ± 4.42%, 98.8 ± 3.96% and 90.7 ± 2.79% for SCCPs and 93.1 ± 6.67%, 108 ± 1.21% and 90.8 ± 3.78% for MCCPs at spiking concentrations of 20, 50 and 200 ng·mL, respectively. The relative standard deviations (RSDs) of intra- and inter-day variations were 1.41% and 9.84% for SCCPs, and 4.23% and 6.26% for MCCPs. The suitability of the developed method was demonstrated through the application to analysis of SCCPs and MCCPs in human serum samples.

Chlorinated paraffins (CPs) are chemical additives mostly composed of polychlorinated alkanes (PCAs) which may impact on the environment and human health; however, little is known about their presence in Southeast Asia. To fill this knowledge gap, we assessed 74 PCA homolog groups commonly referred to as short-chain (SCCPs: PCAs-C), medium-chain (MCCPs: PCAs-C), and long-chain CPs (LCCPs: PCAs-C) in technical CP mixtures (n = 4) and polymer samples (n = 49), including recycled plastics, collected in Vietnam in 2023. The contents of measured PCA homolog groups in technical CP mixtures were 86,000-930,000 mg/kg for PCAs-C; 85,000-990,000 mg/kg for PCAs-C; and 23,000-180,000 mg/kg for PCAs-C.

As an established analytical method, high-performance thin-layer chromatography (HPTLC) offers powerful capabilities. This study focused on its application to analyze chlorinated paraffins (CP) by planar solid phase extraction (pSPE). Based on previous work, an irradiation chamber was developed to investigate the derivatization process on planar thin-layers and ensure a robust and reproducible analysis.

Chlorinated paraffins (CPs) are environmental pollutants extensively used in industries. While the use of short-chain chlorinated paraffins (SCCPs) has been restricted since 2017, the use of medium-chain chlorinated paraffins (MCCPs) has risen as their replacement. Due to lipophilic character, it can be expected that CPs enter the cells; however, the in vitro accumulation potential of CPs remains poorly understood.

Short-chain chlorinated paraffins (SCCPs) are a persistent organic pollutant, and limited information is available on their bioaccumulation and trophic transfer, which would be affected by carbon chain length, chlorine content, and hydrophobicity. In this study, relevant data on SCCPs in water, sediments, and organisms collected from Laizhou Bay were analyzed to investigate the specific distribution of SCCPs and their bioaccumulation and trophic transfer. In water and sediments, the average SCCP concentrations (ΣSCCPs) were 362.

To determine the potentially detrimental impacts of short-chain chlorinated paraffins (SCCPs), we conducted assessments of acute effects on 96-h survival rate and biochemical markers, as well as chronic and multigenerational impacts on growth and reproduction over three generations in the marine mysid, Neomysis awatschensis. Dose-dependent increase of mortality was measured in both juvenile and adult mysids for 96 h. Exposure to the LC10 value (derived from the 96-h acute toxicity value) significantly reduced feeding activity in juveniles, accompanied by a significant elevation in oxidative stress and a reduction in acetylcholinesterase activity.
