compounds, personal care products, pesticides, endocrine-disrupting chemicals, etc., in the …

■ BACKGROUND This biennial review covers developments in water analysis for emerging
environmental contaminants over the period of October 2013-October 2015. Analytical …

Human-induced antibiotic pollution in the world's large rivers poses significant risk to
riverine ecosystems, water quality, and human health. This study identified geophysical and …

We examined the riverine transport of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) based on
their spatial-temporal distributions in water and sediments from the mainstream along the …

There has been a significant investment in research to define exposures and potential
hazards of pharmaceuticals in freshwater and terrestrial ecosystems. A substantial number …

The low terrain and the prosperous agriculture in the east of China, have caused the
accumulation of pesticide residues in the estuaries. Therefore, this study analyzed the …

Spatiotemporal variation, potential sources, and risk assessment of phthalate acid esters
(PAEs) in surface water of the Yangtze River Basin were investigated. Total cumulative …

Single-atom nanozymes possess high catalytic activity and selectivity, and are emerging as
advanced heterogeneous catalysts for environmental applications. Herein, we present the …

Twenty commonly used pharmaceuticals including eight chiral drugs were investigated in
Dongting Lake, China. The contamination level was relatively low on a global scale. Twelve …

Pharmaceutically active compounds (PhACs) as an important group of “emerging
contaminants”(ECs), have been highlighted and received global attentions in last decade …
