ABSTRACT To determine the presence of emergent contaminants in aquatic environments and to evaluate responses dominant taxa benthic macrofauna, seven stations were sampled along three rivers that serve as public water suppliers sampling campaigns, Upper Iguassu Basin, Brazil. Concentrations ethinylestradiol, fenofibrate, ibuprofen triclosan detected sediment. correlate patterns distribution abundance fauna with various found a redundancy analysis (RDA) was applied showed positive...
The presence of personal care products in the environment is recent and relatively few researches work with quantification this class emerging contaminants Brazil. However, a wide variety these continuously released into aquatic environment. growing interest substances occurs mainly because they exhibit biological activity very low concentrations, which gives great environmental relevance. difficulty detecting quantifying such encourages development validation appropriate analytical methods...
In urban areas, wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) play a major role in the water quality of rivers. The removal efficiency emerging contaminants by WWTPs is strongly correlated with type and hydraulic retention time (HRT) process, which can vary according to volumetric influent flow occasional peak flows. This paper aims, for first time, assess daily variation lipid regulators personal care products an river impacted domestic effluents. Samples were collected upstream downstream WWTP....
