  • Description: Bisphenol analogues (BPs) have been widely applied to industry as the substitutes for bisphenol A (BPA), which have been detected frequently in surface water, sediment, sewage and sludge. The presence of BPs in natural environment could pose risks to the aquatic ecosystem and human health. This study outlined the occurrence, toxicity of BPs in aquatic environment and manifested their potential ecological risk to the aquatic ecosystem throughout the world. As for occurrence, BPA was losing its dominance, while BPs were occupying a large part, especially for bisphenol S (BPS), bisphenol F (BPF) and bisphenol AF (BPAF). In some heavily polluted areas, BPs concentration reached µg/L in aquatic environment, which in the effluent of sewage plants was higher than that in the surface water. BPs content in sludge and sediment was more than that in the aqueous phase. All BPs other than BPS and Bisphenol P (BPP) had moderate toxicity. The current data supports that exposure to BPs may have adverse effects on dysfunction of endocrine system such as thyroid hormone concentration, enzyme activity, and even cell dysfunction, gene damage and chromosomal abnormalities. According to the risk quotient (RQ), BPF shows the highest ecological risk in China, Japan and South Korea, followed by BPA and BPS. The occurrence of bisphenols and their neurotoxicity on aquatic organisms merit further investigation. [Display omitted] •Bisphenol analogues (BPs) are widespread in aquatic environment.•The pollution level of BPF, BPS and BPAF increases year by year.•BPs other than BPA has adverse effects on endocrine system, especially BPP.•BPF causes the higher ecological risk in many parts of the world.
