摘要

Studies at Irving Pulp and Paper Ltd, a bleached kraft mill in Saint John, New Brunswick, Canada, have successfully identified an in-mill waste stream (5th effect evaporator condensates) as containing endocrine disrupting substances (EDSs). These EDSs affect levels of reproductive steroids in a native estuarine fish, the mummichog or killifish (Fundulus heteroclitus). To chemically isolate suspect EDSs, a solid phase extraction protocol was used in 2009 to generate four chemically-distinct fractions, along with residual condensates. Contrary to previous work, there was no significant response in fish exposed to 4% (v/v) whole condensates, making interpretation of specific fractions impossible. The most compelling explanation in the variability of condensate effects over time is change in the chemical make-up of the condensates. Chemical fingerprinting of the condensate batch found a higher androgenic potency in the fractionation condensates than a previous exposure in 2009 that elicited plasma testosterone depressions in males at 4% (v/v). Mummichog were then exposed to model androgens methyltestosterone (100 and 1000 ng/L; MT) and dihydrotestosterone (10 and 100 μg/L; DHT). Plasma testosterone was significantly depressed by 10 μg/L DHT in males. Females had significant depression of plasma estradiol when exposed to both DHT concentrations and 1000 ng/L MT. Comparison of effects in fish exposed to pulp mill condensates and model androgens indicates androgens in the condensates may not be the source of reproductive endocrine effects in condensate-exposed mummichog. Model hormone studies of this type could help determine the classes of active compounds in reproductive-active effluents.
