| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, the hydrophobic fractions of treated sewage water were fractionated into acidic, neutral and basic fractions to clarify the combined effects of these fractions and unregulated chemicals on human cultured cells, as well as the combined effects of these fractions and unregulated chemicals on human cultured cells by quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) to clarify the combined effects of the treated sewage water matrix and unregulated chemicals. The amount of adsorption was evaluated by quartz crystal microbalance (QCM). The results suggest that the cellular effects of synthetic hormones are reduced in the presence of the treated water matrix. The QCM analysis also showed that the adsorption characteristics of synthetic hormones on each fraction differed depending on the type of synthetic hormone. To ensure the safety of reused water, water quality management should take into account the role of the treated water matrix.

研究成果により，再利用水の安全性を確保するために、処理水マトリクスの役割を考慮した水質管理の重要であることが明らかとなった．また，本研究で用いた手法を他の未規制化学物質に適用することにより，監視・制御の対象となる化学物質の優先づけが可能となると考える．さらに，処理水マトリクスには多くの自然由来有機物が含まれていることから，吸着特性データは，自然の水環境中での微量汚染物質の挙動や毒性影響を研究する上でも役立つ．
