类固醇雌激素被认为具有极强的内分泌干扰性和生物活性,在极低浓度下就能引起人体或动物生殖障碍、行为异常和幼体变异等.由于水体中的类固醇雌激素的生态环境效应最为直接,因此,本文综述了近年来关于水环境中几种常见的类固醇雌激素的基本特征、污染现状、来源及迁移过程的研究,以期为类固醇雌激素的水处理技术研究提供基础信息.
Steroid estrogens are a group of biologically active endocrine disruptors.An extremely low level of steroid estrogens is sufficient to result in reproduction and behavior disorders,and larval mutation of both human being and animals.The ecological and environmental effects of steroid estrogens should be more direct on organisms in water system as compared with those in other environment systems.Therefore,in this paper we reviewed the physical and chemical properties of some frequently-used steroid estrogens,and their contamination status,origins and transfers in water system,so as to provide a theoretical basis for developing estrogen removal strategies.
