Occurrence and spatiotemporal variability of sunscreen agents along the polish part of the Baltic Sea coast

(Corresponding) ASTEL A., STEC M., ASTEL K.

Topic:

Emerging pollutants

UV-filters accumulate in tissues of aquatic organisms and induce negative effects on fertility and reproduction. Since they are “new emerging pollutants” general monitoring programs are rare and mainly conducted in touristic places, where high temperatures are recorded throughout the year (Spain,...Read more

Triclosan occurrence in European Sewage Treatment Plants and risk assessment for the European rivers

Thomaidi V., Matsoukas C., (Corresponding) Stasinakis A.

Topic:

Emerging pollutants

The purpose of this study was to estimate the environmental risk associated with the existence of triclosan (TCS) released from municipal wastewater in the European rivers. A literature review was held to record the concentration levels of TCS in effluents of European Sewage Treatment Plants (STPs...Read more

Determination of pharmaceutical residues in natural waters using high performance liquid chromatography coupled to quadrupole-Orbitrap mass spectrometry

KIFOKERI D., NANNOU C., (Corresponding) BOTI V., ALBANIS T.

Topic:

Emerging pollutants

The presence of residual pharmaceuticals in the aquatic environment is an important environmental issue. Since the drugs are designed to cause biological responses, they could pose a risk to organisms in their natural environment. In this study, the presence of selected pharmaceutical compounds (...Read more

Overrated Credence to the Outdated Sand Mining Legislations - A hydrologically challenged measure

Varadharajan S.

Topic:

Hydrology and water resources

The recent floods in the 'God's own Paradise'(Kerala) reminds the Indian Sub-Continent as well as the Global spectators of not just heavy rainfall but also the 'hungry water effect' from deranged desiltation. Laws from the first decade of independence...Read more

Development of a novel GC-APCI-QTOFMS methodology for the determination of more than 300 organic compounds in Asopos river water samples

Panagopoulou E., Nika M., Damalas D., Koulis G., (Corresponding) Thomaidis N.

Topic:

General

The site of interest of this study is Asopos river which is located in Sterea Ellada, north of Athens, and passes through areas where 20% of total Greece industrial production takes place. The extensive installation of industries in the area near the river, and the uncontrolled disposal of...Read more

Screening thousands of emerging contaminants in Asopos river basin by UPLC-QToF-MS

Nikolopoulou V., Nika M., Aalizadeh R., Alygizakis N., (Corresponding) Thomaidis N.

Topic:

General

Monitoring activities over several decades have revealed the ubiquitous presence of organic contaminants in environmental compartments. Asopos river basin, located in Sterea Ellada, has been the focus of many environmental studies over the last decades, mainly due to its geomorphology and the...Read more
