NORMAN Non-target screening (NTS) prioritisation scheme for ranking thousands of contaminants of emerging concern in effluent wastewater collected from Europe

(Corresponding) Alygizakis N., Dulio V., Von der Ohe P., Slobodnik J., Thomaidis N.

Topic:

Emerging pollutants

Prioritisation of contaminants of emerging concern (CECs) remains a challenging task of primary importance for environmental managers and the scientific community as regards the definition of priority actions for pollution prevention & control and for the allocation of resources to address...Read more

Dioxin-Like Polychlorinated Biphenyls at Dilijan Landfills (Republic of Armenia)

(Corresponding) Aleksandryan A., KHACHATRYAN A., Bunyatyan Y.

Topic:

Emerging pollutants

Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are substances of wide distribution, high toxicity, persistence, and ability to long-distance migration. They are characterized by unique properties: temperature stability; high boiling point; non-combustibility; resistance to chemical and physical influences; high...Read more

Screening of 102 organic pollutants in groundwater along the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal in China by GC×GC-TOFMS

(Corresponding) Rao Z., liang m., Liu L., Gong J., Zhu T.

Topic:

Emerging pollutants

Screening of 102 organic pollutants in groundwater along the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal in China by GC×GC-TOFMS. A total of 45 samples were collected. The targets of the investigation involve multiple types of organic pollutants such as Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and their...Read more

Detection of cyanobacterial toxins and oligopeptides from the Polemidia Dam in Cyprus

(Corresponding) Keliri E., Antoniou M., Edwards C., Mazur-Marzec H.

Topic:

Emerging pollutants

Cyanobacterial harmful algal blooms are becoming more spatially persistent worldwide. The formation and release, through cell-death and/or excretion, of bioactive metabolites (cyanotoxins) is comprising a reoccurring concern to environmental protection agencies. Cyanotoxins can negatively impact...Read more

Development and application of methods for the determination of pesticide residues in natural waters and sediments, coupled to GC-MS

(Corresponding) KAPSI M., SAKKAS V., (Corresponding) Albanis T.

Topic:

Emerging pollutants

The main objectives of this study were to develop rapid and accurate screening multiresidue pesticide methods on the basis of Solid-Phase Extraction (SPE) technique for the determination of 10 pesticides in water samples and on the basis of QuEChERS technique regarding sediments samples. The target...Read more

Biological activity of flufenamic acid and synthesized derivates (PFCs) that may occur in the environment

(Corresponding) Šilha D., Šilarová P., Weidlich T.

Topic:

Emerging pollutants

Polyfluorinated compounds (PFCs) are used in the field of pharmaceuticals, pesticides, impregnating agents, etc. These are predominantly compounds that are difficult to degradate in the environment, and therefore are highly persistent. Many these compounds are known to have toxic effects and thus a...Read more

Wide-scope target analysis of >2,100 emerging contaminants in landfill leachates by LC-QTOFMS and investigation of their potential ecological threat

Nika M., Ntaiou K., Elytis K., Stasinakis A., Thomaidi V., Gatidou G., (Corresponding) Thomaidis N.

Topic:

Emerging pollutants

Organic micropollutants are compounds which are normally detected at concentrations up to microgram per liter in the aquatic environment and they are considered to be potential threats to the ecosystem. Some of them have been studied in detail since 1980s and are already included in existing...Read more
