contents Occurrence, Distribution and Risk Assessment of Biocides in Chao Lake and Its Tributaries. Ji, Longxiao Jiang, Lei Wang, Shengxing Hu, Xiaozhen Chen, Kaining Wu, Qinglong Zhou, Lijun Biocides, including fungicides and paraben preservatives, are widely used in medicine, agriculture and food industries, and are ubiquitous in aquatic environments, which will have adverse impacts on aquatic organisms. This study investigated the occurrence, distribution, ecological risks, and human health risks of 7 target biocides in Chao Lake, a large eutrophic urban lake, and its tributaries. Four biocides were detected, with total concentrations ranging from 186 ng/L to 853 ng/L. Carbendazim (CBD), fluconazole (FCZ), and methylparaben (MP) had detection frequencies of 100%, with mean concentrations of 234 ng/L, 35.3 ng/L, and 26.8 ng/L, respectively. Significant spatial heterogeneity was observed, with obviously elevated levels in the western region compared with the central and eastern regions. Strong correlations ( ≤ 0.01) were found between these three biocides, CBD, FCZ, and climbazole (CLI), and the following two environmental factors: total nitrogen and dissolved total nitrogen. Based on the risk quotient (RQ) evaluation, CBD was identified as a high-risk compound for aquatic organisms, particularly , with RQ values exceeding 1 and reaching up to 7.42. CLI showed moderate risks at some sampling sites, while FCZ and MP posed no risk. Human health risk quotient (RQ) analysis revealed no significant health risks to different age groups, with the RQ values of biocides at all sampling sites in Chao Lake below 0.1. The ecological risks of CBD warrant even greater attention.
