  abstract = {{A}n analytical method was developed and validated for the target screening of triclosan ({TCS}), triclocarban ({TCC}) and its lesser and higher chlorinated congeners namely, 4,4'-dichlorocarbanilide ({DCC}) 3,3',4,4'-tetrachlorocarbanilide (3-{C}l-{TCC}) and 2,3',4,4'-tetrachlorocarbanilide (2-{C}l-{TCC}) in river sediment. {S}ediment samples were extracted by pressurized liquid extraction and quantification and identification of target compounds were carried by liquid chromatography high resolution mass spectrometry ({LC}-{HRMS}). {T}he overall method recoveries were 89% with relative standard deviations below 6%. {M}ethod detection limits ranged from 0.01 to 0.12 ng/g. {T}he usefulness of the method was demonstrated on sediment samples collected downstream of three wastewater treatment plants in an attempt to provide with a set of occurrence data of these biocides in {F}rance and for a better understanding of their fate in river. {M}ajor results are the following: {TCC}, {DCC} and 3-{C}l-{TCC} were ubiquitously detected demonstrating that these emerging contaminants have been probably overlooked in {F}rance. {R}eductive dechlorination of {TCC} into {DCC} was also ubiquitous but predominated in anoxic sediment. 3-{C}l-{TCC} is probably more persistent than {TCC} and {LC}-{HRMS} enabled the detection and identification of a suite of other chlorinated biocides in river sediment.},
