Abstract Background and aims Wastewater‐based epidemiology is an additional indicator of drug use that gaining reliability to complement the current established panel indicators. The this study were to: (i) assess spatial temporal trends population‐normalized mass loads benzoylecgonine, amphetamine, methamphetamine 3,4‐methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA) in raw wastewater over 7 years (2011–17); (ii) address overall by estimating average number combined doses consumed per day each city;...
Sulfonamide antibiotics undergo transformation in the aquatic environment through biodegradation, photolysis, or hydrolysis. In this study, residual antibacterial activity of 11 products (TPs) sulfamethoxazole (SMX) was investigated with regard to their vitro growth and luminescence inhibition on Vibrio fischeri (30 min 24 h exposure). Two products, 4-hydroxy-SMX N(4)-hydroxy-acetyl-SMX, were synthesized in-house confirmed by nuclear magnetic resonance high-resolution mass spectrometry....
Abstract Real-time, high resolution, simultaneous measurement of multiple ionic species is challenging with existing chromatographic, spectrophotometric and potentiometric techniques. Potentiometric ion sensors exhibit limitations in both resolution selectivity. Herein, we develop wafer scale graphene transistor technology for overcoming these limitations. Large area an ideal material sensitive field effect transistors (ISFETs), while simultaneously enabling facile fabrication as compared to...
Quantitative measurement of drug consumption biomarkers in wastewater can provide objective information on community use patterns and trends. This study presents the alcohol 20 cities across 11 countries through wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE), reports application these data for risk assessment a population scale using margin exposure (MOE) approach. Raw 24-h composite samples were collected over one-week period from following common protocol. For each sample specific stable biomarker,...
The proliferation of new psychoactive substances (NPS) over recent years has made their surveillance complex. analysis raw municipal influent wastewater can allow a broader insight into community consumption patterns NPS. This study examines data from an international program that collected and analysed samples up to 47 sites in 16 countries between 2019 2022. Influent were the New Year period using validated liquid chromatography - mass spectrometry methods. Over three years, total 18 NPS...
We investigated the photocatalytic activity of TiO2 nanoparticles (TiO2-NPs) and nanotubes (TiO2-NTs) supported on a floating polyurethane (PU) foam for removing Bisphenol A (BPA) as model pollutant. fabricated TiO2-NPs by sol-gel method TiO2-NTs ultrasound-assisted hydrothermal method. Subsequently, photocatalysts were immobilized onto PU through wet chemical deposition process. The synthesized characterized contact angle, SEM-EDS, TEM, XRD, DRS, BET analyses. successfully deposited foam,...
The complexity around the dynamic markets for new psychoactive substances (NPS) forces researchers to develop and apply innovative analytical strategies detect identify them in influent urban wastewater. In this work a comprehensive suspect screening workflow following liquid chromatography - high resolution mass spectrometry analysis was established utilising open-source InSpectra data processing platform HighResNPS library. total, 278 wastewater samples from 47 sites 16 countries were...
