野生灵长类动物的栖息地越来越受到周围人为压力的威胁，但对灵长类动物暴露于常用化学品的情况知之甚少。我们采用了一种新方法，同时测量了美国狒狒粪便中的21种传统农药（OCPs）、29种当前使用的农药（CUPs）、47种卤代阻燃剂（HFR）和19种有机磷酸盐阻燃剂，哥斯达黎加的吼猴，乌干达的狒狒、黑猩猩、红尾猴和红疣猴。在所有地点的有机氯农药中，含量最高的化学品是α-六氯环己烷（α-HCH）、β-六氯环己烷（β-HCH）和六氯苯;在哥斯达黎加和印第安纳州的消费者保护方案中，含量最高的化学品是毒死蜱;在哥斯达黎加和印第安纳州，含量最高的化学品是十溴二苯基乙烷（DBDPE），在乌干达，含量最高的化学品是2，2 '，4，4'-四溴二苯醚（BDE-47）;在所有地点，含量最高的化学品是磷酸三（2-丁氧基乙基）酯（TBOEP），含量最高的化学品是磷酸三（2-丁氧基乙基）酯。在红尾猴和红疣猴体内检测到的化学品浓度普遍高于黑猩猩和狒狒。我们的方法可用于检查化学污染物对野生动物的威胁，这对于只有非侵入性方法才能使用的濒危物种至关重要。
The habitats of wild primates are increasingly threatened by surrounding anthropogenic pressures, but little is known about primate exposure to frequently used chemicals. We applied a novel method to simultaneously measure 21 legacy pesticides (OCPs), 29 current use pesticides (CUPs), 47 halogenated flame retardants (HFRs), and 19 organophosphate flame retardants in feces from baboons in the U.S.A., howler monkeys in Costa Rica, and baboons, chimpanzees, red-tailed monkeys, and red colobus in Uganda. The most abundant chemicals were α-hexachlorocyclohexane (α-HCH), β-hexachlorocyclohexane (β-HCH), and hexachlorobenzene among OCPs across all sites, chlorpyrifos among CUPs in Costa Rica and Indiana, decabromodiphenylethane (DBDPE) in Costa Rica and Indiana and 2, 2', 4, 4'-tetrabromodiphenyl ether (BDE-47) in Uganda as HFRs, and tris(2-butoxyethyl) phosphate (TBOEP) as OPFRs across all sites. The detected chemical concentrations were generally higher in red-tailed monkeys and red colobus than in chimpanzees and baboons. Our methods can be used to examine the threat of chemical pollutants to wildlife, which is critical for endangered species where only noninvasive methods can be used.
