Abstract:
"Parabens are a group of alkyl esters of p-hydroxybenzoic acid and usually include methyl paraben, ethyl paraben, propyl paraben, butyl paraben, isobutyl paraben, isopropyl paraben and benzyl paraben. Parabens (or their salts) are widely used as preservatives in cosmetics and medicine due to their relatively low toxicity and long history of safe use. Testing of parabens has shown, to varying degrees, that individual paraben compounds have weak estrogenic activity in some in vitro screening tests, such as estrogen receptor ligand binding, regulation of CAT gene expression, and proliferation of

Abstract:
Background: Due to the complexities involved in the extraction of micropollutants, the information regarding micropollutants like paraben in wastewater and sludge is scarce. The aim of this study was to adopt a microwave-assisted dispersive liquid-liquid micro-extraction (MADLLME) method for the extraction of parabens in municipal wastewater treatment plant (WWTP). Methods: A mixed stock solution of methyl-, ethyl-, propyl-, and butyl-parabens with concentration of 10 mg/mL were prepared in methanol. To validate this method, the limit of detection (LOD), limit of quantification (LOQ), linearit

L. monocytogenes was generally the most resistant and A. hydrophila the least resistant to the preservatives. The differences between the bacteria were substantial.
