Determination of N-Nitrosamines by Gas Chromatography Coupled to Quadrupole–Time-of-Flight Mass Spectrometry in Water Samples
(MDPI, 2020-01-03)
An analytical method based on high-resolution quadrupole–time-of-flight (QToF) mass spectrometry has been developed as an alternative to the classical method, using a low-resolution ion trap (IT) analyzer to reduce ...
Profiling cocaine residues and pyrolytic products in wastewater by mixed‐mode liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry
(Wiley, 2019-03-19)
This work provides a new analytical method for the determination of cocaine, its metabolites benzoylecgonine and cocaethylene, the pyrolytic products anhydroecgonine and anhydroecgonine methyl ester, and the pharmaceutical ...
Reaction of diazepam and related benzodiazepines with chlorine. Kinetics, transformation products and in-silico toxicological assessment
(Elsevier, 2017-05-03)
In this work, the reaction of four benzodiazepines (diazepam, oxazepam, nordazepam and temazepam) during water chlorination was studied by means of liquid chromatography-quadrupole-time of flight-mass spectrometry (LC-QTOF-MS). ...
Wastewater-Based Epidemiology as a New Tool for Estimating Population Exposure to Phthalate Plasticizers
(American Chemical Society, 2017-02-27)
This study proposes the monitoring of phthalate metabolites in wastewater as a nonintrusive and economic alternative to urine analysis for estimating human exposure to phthalates. To this end, a solid-phase extraction–liquid ...
Multi-residue determination of psychoactive pharmaceuticals, illicit drugs and related metabolites in wastewater by Ultra-High Performance Liquid Chromatography-Tandem Mass Spectrometry
(Elsevier, 2018-07-30)
This study presents a new multi-residue analytical method for the simultaneous determination of 38 psychoactive drugs (including benzodiazepines, antidepressants and drugs of abuse) and related metabolites in raw wastewater. ...
Comprehensive determination of phthalate, terephthalate and di-iso-nonyl cyclohexane-1,2-dicarboxylate metabolites in wastewater by solid-phase extraction and ultra(high)-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry
(Elsevier, 2021)
Plasticizers are chemical compounds used in the production of flexible plastics for a large variety of applications. They are present in most of the environments and, hence, we are highly exposed to them via several routes ...
Determination of persistent and mobile organic contaminants (PMOCs) in water by mixed-mode liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry
(American Chemical Society, 2019-03-21)
The presence of persistent and mobile organic contaminants (PMOC) in aquatic environments has become a matter of concern due to their ability of breaking through natural and anthropogenic barriers, even reaching drinking ...
Legacy and emerging pollutants in marine bivalves from the Galician coast (NW Spain)
(Elsevier, 2019-05-28)
The presence of pollutants in estuary and oceanic systems is a global problem and a serious concern to human and environmental health. Usually, environmental monitoring studies consider classical persistent organic pollutants ...
Applicability of mixed-mode chromatography for the simultaneous analysis of C1-C18 perfluoroalkylated substances
(Springer, 2020)
A new analytical method for the determination of 22 perfluoroalkylated (carboxylic and sulfonic) acids in water samples is presented. The method's objective was to achieve the simultaneous quantification of compounds with ...
Determination of human metabolites of chlorinated phosphorous flame retardants in wastewater by N-tert-butyldimethylsilyl-N-methyltrifluoroacetamide-derivatization and gas chromatography-high resolution mass spectrometry
(Elsevier, 2019-09-27)
The analysis of wastewater for the determination of human biomarkers of exposure (human metabolites) is a non-intrusive, economic and complementary alternative to the analysis of urine in the monitoring of human exposure ...
