Abstract

Endocrine disruptors are known as chemical compounds that affect living systems. The three investigated polyion complex (PIC) fibers are formed by the interaction of two kinds of oppositely charged poly-electrolytes in aqueous solution and examined for their adsorptive ability as endocrine disruptor adsorbents. Among nine compounds, seven endocrine disruptors and related compounds are adsorbed onto the PIC fibers. Particularly, benzo [a]pyrene is absorbed of high amounts. The relationships between the structures of endocrine disruptors and the adsorption-release behavior are investigated. Biphenyl exhibits mostly a repetitive adsorption-release behavior.
