Topic:
Emerging pollutants
Chemical disinfection of water has been commonly applied to protect public health from waterborne infectious diseases. Chemical disinfectants are strong oxidants that react with the building blocks or alter the metabolism of pathogenic organisms, killing them as the final consequence. These...Read more
Magnetic solid-phase extraction of pesticides in environmental water samples Fe3O4@SiO2@C18 nanoparticles coupled to GC-MS determination
KAPSI M., SAKKAS V., (Corresponding) ALBANIS T.
Topic:
Emerging pollutants
A rapid magnetic solid-phase extraction (MSPE) method coupled to Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) was developed for the simultaneous extraction of ten pesticides belonging to various categories (insecticides, herbicides and fungicides) in environmental water samples. The magnetic Fe3O4@...Read more

Biodegradation of pharmaceuticals by bacteria isolated from estuarine environment - cleanup technologies through nature based processes
(Corresponding) Fernandes J., Duarte P., Almeida C., Carvalho M., Mucha A.
Topic:
Emerging pollutants
New sustainable technologies are needed to tackle pharmaceuticals contamination in different environmental compartments. Bioremediation technology, using native microorganisms with capacity for partial or complete elimination of contaminants, can be considered. This work investigated the capability...Read more
