Extended suspect screening to identify organic micropollutants and their transformation products as potential markers of wastewater contamination in riverine and coastal ecosystems
ČELIĆ M., JAEN A., BRICEÑO-GUEVARA S., RODRIGUEZ-MOZAZ S., (Corresponding) GROS M., PETROVIĆ M.
Topic:
Emerging pollutants
In this study, a comprehensive suspect screening of organic micropollutants (MPs), and some of their transformation products (TPs) and metabolites, was performed in waste, river and coastal waters from the Ebro Delta region (Catalonia, Spain). For this purpose, an automated suspect screening...Read more

Topic:
Emerging pollutants
Due to their economic advantages, landfills are the primary repository of municipal solid wastes, receiving everyday by-products such as food wastes, plastic containers and product packaging materials, unused pharmaceuticals, textile and other products. As a result of the higher demand and better...Read more

Investigation of the presence of organic micropollutants in biota specimens from the Antarctica ecosystem using state-of-the-art wide-scope target and suspect HRMS methodologies.
Gkotsis G., Nika M., Vasilatos K., Orfanioti A., Athanasopoulou A., Alygizakis N., Oswald P., Slobodnik J., (Corresponding) Thomaidis N.
Topic:
Emerging pollutants
The contamination of the aquatic ecosystem with organic micropollutants due to anthropogenic activities, over the last decades, is a well-known issue. Due to the frequent detection of these chemicals in various environmental compartments, they are considered as potential threats to the aquatic...Read more

Unveiling the occurrence of organic micropollutants in different species of terrestrial mesocarnivores utilizing HRMS techniques
Boinis N., Diamanti K., Panagopoulou E., Gkotsis G., Maragkou N., Nika M., Vasilatos K., Höpker K., Schäfer H., Wieczorek M., Osterauer R., (Corresponding) Thomaidis N.
Topic:
Emerging pollutants
The introduction of organic micropollutants in terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems, which mainly originate from anthropogenic activities, is supported by overwhelming evidence from global studies conducted as early as the turn of the 20th century. A fraction of these xenobiotics, the regulated “...Read more
