Occurrence of polycyclic musks in wastewater and receiving water bodies and fate during wastewater treatment.
    Chemosphere, 2011, Volume: 82, Issue:8

    The occurrence of cashmerane (DPMI), celestolide, phantolide, traesolide (ATII), galaxolide (HHCB) and tonalide (AHTN) in sewage and surface waters and their fate during wastewater treatment and anaerobic sludge digestion is investigated. AHTN and HHCB are the most important representatives and influent concentrations of 0.41-1.8 and 0.9-13 μgL(-1) are observed. DPMI is detected in influent and effluent samples but in notably lower concentrations than AHTN and HHCB. Major sources of polycyclic musks are households, whereas industrial emitters seem to be of minor importance. This conclusion is supported by the analysis of selected industrial wastewaters (metal, textile and paper industry). Specific emissions of 0.36 ± 0.19 and 1.6 ± 1.0 mg cap(-1)d(-1) for AHTN and HHCB are calculated. Overall removal efficiencies between approx 50% and more than 95% are observed during biological wastewater treatment and removal with the excess sludge is the major removal pathway. Log K(D) values of 3.73-4.3 for AHTN, 3.87-4.34 for HHCB and 2.42-3.22 for DPMI are observed in secondary sludge. During sludge digestion no or only slight removal occurred. Mean polycyclic musk concentrations in digested sludge amounted to 1.9 ± 0.9 (AHTN), 14.2 ± 5.8 (HHCB), 0.8 ± 0.4 (ATII) and 0.2 ± 0.09 (DPMI) mgkg(-1) dry matter. In the receiving water systems a comparable distribution as during wastewater treatment is observed. AHTN, HHCB and DPMI are detected in surface waters (ND (not detected) - <0.04, ND - 0.32 and ND - 0.02 μg L(-1)) as well as AHTN and HHCB in sediments (ND - 20, ND - 120 μg kg(-1)). For HHCB an apparent K(OC) value of 4.1-4.4 is calculated for sediments. Major source for polycyclic musks in surface waters are discharges from wastewater treatment plants. For HHCB and DPMI 100% of the load observed in the sampled surface waters derive from discharges of treated wastewater.

Occurrence of synthetic musk fragrances in human blood from 11 cities in China.
    Environmental toxicology and chemistry, 2010, Volume: 29, Issue:9

    We measured two nitro musk fragrances (musk xylene) and musk ketone) and five polycyclic musk fragrances (galaxolide [HHCB], tonalide [AHTN], celestolide [ADBI], traseolide [ATII], and phantolide [AHMI]) in human blood samples from 11 cities of China (n = 204). Possible temporal trends in musk concentrations and associations with personal factors, such as gender, age, and others, were studied. Galaxolide (HHCB) showed the highest median concentration (0.85 ng/g) followed by AHTN (0.53 ng/g) with high detection frequency (91 and 77%, respectively). Concentrations of the other synthetic musk fragrances, including musk ketone and musk xylene, were all below the quantification limits. The results suggested that musk concentrations were not significantly relative to gender and body weight but positively correlated with age groups and locations. Apparent differences were also observed in the ratios of HHCB to AHTN concentrations among different cities.

The interference of nitro- and polycyclic musks with endogenous and xenobiotic metabolizing enzymes in carp: an in vitro study.
    Environmental science & technology, 2009, Dec-15, Volume: 43, Issue:24

    Synthetic musks are widely used as perfuming agents in products, such as cosmetics, detergents, and soaps. The increased detection of these substances in the aquatic environment and their high bioconcentration potential raises concerns about potential effects on aquatic species. This work aimed at assessing the interactions of the most widely used musks: nitromusks (musk xylene, musk ketone) and polycyclic musks (celestolide, galaxolide, and tonalide) with fish enzymatic systems involved in both xenobiotic and endogenous metabolism. Therefore, CYP catalyzed pathways were investigated in carp liver microsomes (CYP1A, CYP3A), ovarian microsomes (CYP19) and testicular mitochondria (CYP17 and CYP11beta) using standard substrates. Phase II activities (UDP-glucuronosyltransferases and sulfotransferases) were determined in carp liver microsomes and cytosol, respectively. Polycyclic musks (galaxolide and tonalide) were stronger inhibitors of CYP3A- (IC(50): 68-74 microM), CYP17- (IC(50): 213-225 microM), CYP11beta- and CYP19-catalyzed activities than nitromusks, while the latter showed higher ability to interfere with CYP1A (IC(50): 35-37 microM). The sulfation of estradiol was also significantly inhibited by tonalide and galoxolide (IC(50): 140-294 microM). Overall, polycyclic musks showed the highest potential to interfere with those activities involved in the synthesis and metabolism of steroids while nitromusks mainly interfered with xenobiotic metabolism (CYP1A-catalyzed reactions). The obtained data suggest that CYP isoforms are potentially sensitive targets of synthetic musk substances in fish.

In vitro genotoxicity of polycyclic musk fragrances in the micronucleus test.
    Mutation research, 1997, Dec-12, Volume: 395, Issue:2-3

    The synthetic polycyclic musk fragrance compounds galaxolide (1,3,4,6,7,8-hexahydro-4,6,6,7,8,8-hexamethylcyclopenta-(g)-2-b enzopyrane), tonalide (7-acetyl-1,1,3,4,4,6-hexamerthyltetraline), celestolide (4-acetyl-1,1-dimethyl-6-tert-butylindane), phantolide (6-acetyl-1,1,2,3,3,5-hexamethylindane), cashmeran (6,7-dihydro-1,1,2,3,3-pentamethyl-4-(5H) indanone) and traseolide (5-acetyl-1,1,2,6-tetramethyl-3-isopropylindane) were examined for their genotoxicity in the micronucleus test (MNT) with human lymphocytes in vitro in the presence and absence of an exogenous metabolizing system containing rat liver S9 and the metabolically competent human hepatoma cell line Hep G2. Compound concentrations were employed up to cytotoxic doses. Galaxolide, tonalide, celestolide, phantolide, cashmeran and traseolide revealed no genotoxicity in the micronucleus test with human lymphocytes and with the human hepatoma cell line Hep G2.
