PFAS, known as "forever" compounds, are prevalent in various environments, including soils and aquatic systems, due to extensive usage. Surface waters several European countries, especially marinas ports with high boat traffic, require further study potential contamination sources. Reliable methods for the extraction quantification of these emergent compounds essential. This aimed improve an existent solid phase method analyse ports' surface variable salinities (2, 9 17 PSU). The objectives...

In the last years, progestins have raised special concerns for their documented negative effects on aquatic species, yet little is known about environmental levels in surface waters and bioaccumulation trophic web. This study aimed to 1) adapt an extraction method quantifying freeze-dried matrices, 2) validate analytical procedure three matrices: bivalve, polychaete, crustacean, 3) characterize of four most prescribed synthetic key species across Portuguese estuaries. Through validated...
