      review.

AB  - Benzotriazole UV stabilizers (BUVs) are a group of industrial chemicals used in 
      various consumer products and industrial applications. Due to its large-scale 
      production and use, BUVs have been detected in all environmental matrices. Humans 
      are exposed to BUVs from environmental media, food, personal care products 
      (PCPs), and consumer products. As a result, BUVs are detected in human breast 
      milk, attracting researchers and regulatory bodies worldwide. BUVs such as UV-328 
      exhibit the characteristics of persistent organic pollutants (POPs); hence, it 
      has been recently listed under Stockholm Convention POP list. The current review 
      focuses on the occurrence of BUVs in the environment with emphasis on 
      persistency, bioaccumulation, and toxicity (PBT). Scarcity of scientific data on 
      BUVs' properties, environmental occurrence, exposure levels, and effects on 
      organisms poses significant challenges to the policymakers and regulatory bodies 
      in adopting management strategies. The need for a science-based integrated 
      framework for risk assessment and management of BUVs is recommended. Considering 
      the potential threat of BUVs to human health and the environment, it is 
      recommended that BUVs should be taken as a subject of priority research. Studies 
      on the degradation and transformation route of BUVs need to be explored for the 
      sound management of BUVs.
