| 内容記述 | Vietnam is a developing country located in the central part of the Southeast Asian tropical region. The country comprises the Red River and Mekong River Delta, inhabiting more than 30 million people, which is one of the most populous areas in the world. These deltas have become one of the most productive agricultural regions in Southeast Asia. Agrochemicals have been used extensively in the past and until very recently for agricultural purposes and malaria eradication program. The present paper provides a comprehensive overview of the environmental distribution, patterns and trends of contamination of toxic substances including persistent organochlorines (OCs) and endocrine active compounds (EACs) in different environmental compartments from Vietnam. Monitoring data reported during the 1990s demonstrated widespread and elevated contamination of DDTs in air, water, sediments and soils from in Vietnam. Recent studies in frame of the Asia-Pacific Mussel Watch Program have also revealed that fish, mussels and resident birds from Vietnam contained higher concentrations of DDTs as compared to other countries in region, suggesting the role of Vietnamese environment as a significant emission source of DDT in the Southeast Asian region. Subsequent surveys on coastal lines from north and middle part of Vietnam likewise demonstrated that contamination of some endocrine active compounds such as alkylphenols and phthalates are ubiquitous. In particular, relatively high concentrations of bis-phenol A were found in some locations in Red River delta, comparable or higher than those reported for several locations in developed nations in Western Europe and North America. A case study on seasonal variation of alkylphenols and phthalates in surface water of river delta and estuary of north and central Vietnam indicated the differences in distribution of these compounds between dry and rainy seasons. Higher concentrations of alkylphenols and phthalates were found in dry season in estuary; while the contrasting pattern was observed in the river delta, showing elevated residues in rainy season. This result suggests the different behavior of alkylphenols and phthalates in river delta and in coastal environment. The temperature dependence in tropical ecosystem and the influence of the specific local sources may be reasons for the observed results in the seasonal variations. To our knowledge, this is the first extensive study on the widespread contamination of EACs in Vietnam. Regarding the trends of contamination by OCs, preliminary survey conducted in Read River delta water and sediments indicated a rapid decline trend in water and a slow decrease in sediments during 1995-2001. From ecotoxicological and human health perspectives, concentrations of bis-phenol A and di (2-ethylhexyl) phthalates in surface water from some locations in Vietnam exceeded the guideline values for Ecotoxicological Effects and the Environmental Risk Limit, respectively, suggesting potential for toxic implications on aquatic wildlife. Human exposure to persistent organic pollutants indicated that DDT residues levels in human breast milk from both Hanoi and Hochiminh city were among the highest values reported for Asian developing countries as well as developed nations. Daily intakes estimating based on the exposure through sea-foods indicates that intakes of DDTs by Vietnamese populations were among the highest rank in Asia-Pacific countries, suggesting potential risk for human exposure to elevated DDT pollution. Future studies should be focused on the time trends of POPs and EACs in biota of Vietnam with view of predicting the future trend of contamination and to reveal new clues for understanding possible toxic impacts on aquatic organisms. | |||||
