This study assessed the photochemical fate of nine sulfonamides (sulfamerazine, sulfanilamide, sulfamethoxypyridazine, sulfamethoxazole, sulfachloropyridazine, sulfamethazine, sulfadiazine, sulfathiazole and sulfadimethoxine) during a 6h irradiation period with UVA/UVB-light and UVA-light and over 7days under natural (sunlight) conditions. The cell growth inhibition effect and cytotoxicity of sulfonamides and their photodegradation products was investigated over 24 and 48h with murine fibroblasts and keratinocytes. Antibacterial activity of the degradation products was studied using the Geobacillus stearothermophilus var. Calidolactis C953 assay.UVA/UVB treatment of several sulfonamide solutions results in degradation of the compounds in different amounts with the highest degradation rate for sulfathiazole and sulfanilamide. The UVA/UVB light degradation products exhibit no antimicrobial activity. Sun light exposure over 7days reveals a similar degradation pattern of the different sulfonamides, albeit to a different extent. Compared with UVA/UVB-irradiation, UVA-irradiated sulfonamides degrade to a lesser extent (except sulfamethazine). There was no impact on cell toxicity of the UVA/UVB-degrading products except for sulfanilamide, while a slight impact on cell proliferation was observed.All studied sulfonamides undergo photodegradation under UV-light exposure to a greater or lesser extent. The degradation products have no cytotoxic potential except sulfanilamide and have a slight impact on cell proliferation. All degradation products showed no antibacterial activity. Thus, UV-light exposure seems to represent an adequate method for inactivating sulfonamides with regard to their antimicrobial activity.
