AB  - Black-crowned night heron (Nycticorax nycticorax) eggs have been identified as 
      useful indicators for biomonitoring the environmental pollution in China. In this 
      study, we investigated thirty eggs of black-crowned night heron collected from 
      the upper Yangtze River (Changjiang) Basin, Southwest China, for the occurrence 
      of legacy persistent organic pollutants (POPs), including polychlorinated 
      dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans (PCDD/Fs), organochlorine pesticides (OCPs), 
      polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), and polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs). Our 
      results showed a general presence of POPs in night heron eggs with OCPs being the 
      dominant contaminants, having a geometric mean concentration of 22.2 ng g(-1) wet 
      weight (ww), followed by PCBs (1.36 ng g(-1) ww), PBDEs (0.215 ng g(-1) ww), and 
      PCDD/Fs (23.0 pg g(-1) ww). The concentration levels were found to be 
      significantly higher in night heron eggs than in poultry eggs by one or two 
      magnitude orders. Among OCP congeners, p,p'-DDE was found to be predominant in 
      night heron eggs, with a geometric mean concentration of 15.1 ng g(-1) ww. 
      Furthermore, species-specific congener patterns in eggs suggested similar or 
      different sources for different POPs, possibly associated with contaminated soil 
      and parental dietary sources. Additionally, estimated daily intakes (EDIs) were 
      used to evaluate non-carcinogenic and carcinogenic risk associated with 
      consumption of bird eggs. Our results revealed non-negligible non-cancer and 
      cancer risk for humans who consume wild bird eggs as a regular diet instead of 
      poultry eggs.
