The discharge of emerging persistent organic contaminants including endocrine disrupters, perfluorochemicals, pharmaceuticals and personal care prod-ucts and antibiotic resistance genes has been increased due to human activities. The emerging persistent organic contam-inants were detected worldwide and were frequently reported in highly contaminat-ed regions including North America, Eu-rope, Japan and China. Sewage plants generally had highest quantity of the e-merging persistent organic contaminants, which might reach hundreds or thou-sands of nanogram per liter. The distri-bution of these contaminants was highly correlated with the industrial location.%新型持久性有机污染物,如内分泌干扰物、全氟化合物、药物和个人护理品以及抗生素抗性基因等随着人类生产活动增强而有排放增长趋势,目前已呈世界性分布,尤以北美、欧洲、日本、中国等地区污染程度为高。污水处理厂出水中新型持久性有机污染物浓度最高,可高达几百甚至上千纳克每升,与污水处理厂等工业厂区的相关性十分密切。
