Review of emerging contaminants in aquatic biota from Latin America: 2002–2016
(Society of Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, 2017-07)
Although it is known that emerging contaminants are widespread all over the globe, there is a gap of information about their distribution in some geographical areas, such as Latin America. The present bibliographic work ...
Engineered Nanomaterials for Emerging Contaminant Removal from Wastewater
(Springer, 2020)
Emerging contaminants (ECs), mainly organic compounds, are pollutants of growing concern. Several important ones are pharmaceuticals and personal care products, wood preservatives, hormones, plasticizers, pesticides, laundry ...
Marine contamination and cytogenotoxic effects of fluoxetine in the tropical brown mussel Perna perna
(Elsevier B.V., 2019-04-01)
Concerns are growing about the presence of fluoxetine (FLX) in environmental matrices, as well as its harmful effects on non-target organisms. FLX in aquatic ecosystems has been detected in a range varying from pg/L to ...
Emerging contaminants in trans-american waters
(2019)
Industrial development has made new products available to people to make their lives
easier. Items such as food, cleaning, personal care and health products, among others, are
processed, sold and consumed daily by all age ...
Toxicity of three emerging contaminants to non-target marine organisms
(2019-06-01)
Coastal areas are continually impacted by anthropic activities because they shelter large urban conglomerates. Urban effluents directly or indirectly end up reaching the marine environment, releasing a large number of ...
Do trifluralin and tebuthiuron impair isolated rat liver mitochondria?
(2020-02-01)
Emerging contaminants, such as the herbicides trifluralin and tebuthiuron, comprise a class of compounds for which toxicological data are lacking, especially data regarding their harmful effects and biomarkers of exposure. ...
Síntese de nanotubos de carbono a partir de fontes alternativas para aplicação na adsorção de contaminantes emergentes
(Universidade Federal de Minas GeraisBrasilICX - DEPARTAMENTO DE QUÍMICAPrograma de Pós-Graduação em QuímicaUFMG, 2021-04-01)
This work has reported the synthesis of carbon nanomaterials (CNMs) by chemical vapor deposition method (CVD) at 800 °C using two alternative carbon sources, being these ethyl acetate and waste cooking oil. Moreover, it ...
Removal of pharmaceuticals and personal care products from domestic wastewater using rotating biological contactors
(Ctr Environment & Energy Research & Studies, 2019-01)
New emerging contaminants are being released into the environment. Some of these are not removed in conventional wastewater treatment plants. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate a pilot-scale rotating biological ...
Critical review: Grand challenges in assessing the adverse effects of contaminants of emerging concern on aquatic food webs
(Society of Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, 2019-01)
Much progress has been made in the past decades to understand the sources, transport, fate andbiological effects of contaminants of emerging concern (CECs) in aquatic ecosystems. Despitethese advancements, significant ...
