Analytical research of pesticide biomarkers in wastewater with application to study spatial differences in human exposure
Elsevier (2022-07-15)Wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE) relies on the assessment and interpretation of levels of biomarkers in wastewater originating from a well-defined community. It has provided unique information on spatial and temporal ... -
Comparison of pharmaceutical, illicit drug, alcohol, nicotine and caffeine levels in wastewater with sale, seizure and consumption data for 8 European cities
BioMed Central (2016)Background: Monitoring the scale of pharmaceuticals, illicit and licit drugs consumption is important to assess the needs of law enforcement and public health, and provides more information about the different trends within ... -
Enantiomeric profiling of quinolones and quinolones resistance gene qnrS in European wastewaters
Elsevier (2020)Wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE) was applied for the first time in seven cities across Europe with the aim of estimating quinolones consumption via the analysis of human urinary metabolites in wastewater. This report ... -
Enantiomeric profiling of chiral illicit drugs in a pan-European study
Elsevier (2018)The aim of this paper is to present the first study on spatial and temporal variation in the enantiomeric profile of chiral drugs in eight European cities. Wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE) and enantioselective analysis ... -
Estimation of caffeine intake from analysis of caffeine metabolites in wastewater
Elsevier (2017-12)Caffeine metabolites in wastewater were investigated as potential biomarkers for assessing caffeine intake in a population. The main human urinary metabolites of caffeine were measured in the urban wastewater of ten European ... -
Improving wastewater-based epidemiology to estimate cannabis use: focus on the initial aspects of the analytical procedure
Elsevier (2017-10-02)estimating drug use by the general population, based on the quantitative analysis of specific human metabolites of illicit drugs in urban wastewater. Cannabis is the most commonly used illicit drug and of high interest for ... -
Monitoring new psychoactive substances use through wastewater analysis: current situation, challenges and limitations
Elsevier (2019-06)New psychoactive substances (NPSs) are compounds that produce similar effects to those induced by illicit drugs (IDs), such as cocaine, cannabis, and amphetamines, but are not strictly regulated by international conventions. ... -
Monitoring psychoactive substance use at six European festivals through wastewater and pooled urine analysis
Elsevier (2020-07-10)The consumption of psychoactive substances is considered a growing problem in many communities. Moreover, new psychoactive substances (NPS) designed as (legal) substitutes to traditional illicit drugs are relatively easily ... -
Multi-year interlaboratory exercises for the analysis of illicit drugs and metabolites in wastewater: development of a quality control system
Elsevier (2018)This study presents the development of a worldwide inter-laboratory testing scheme for the analysis of seven illicit drug residues in different matrices (standard solutions, tap- and wastewater). By repeating this exercise ... -
Perspectives and challenges associated with the determination of new psychoactive substances in urine and wastewater – A tutorial
Elsevier (2021-02-08)New psychoactive substances (NPS), often designed as (legal) substitutes to conventional illicit drugs, are constantly emerging in the drug market and being commercialized in different ways and forms. Their use continues ... -
Screening for new psychoactive substances in wastewater from educational institutions
Elsevier (2023-08-31)Drug (ab)use among young people is a serious issue, negatively impacting their well-being and prospects. The emergence of new psychoactive substances (NPS) further complicates the situation as they are easily accessible ... -
Source identification of amphetamine-like stimulants in Spanish wastewater through enantiomeric profiling
Elsevier (2021-10-06)Amphetamine (AMP), methamphetamine (MAMP) and 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA) occur in wastewater not only as a result of illicit consumption, but also, in some cases, from prescription drug use or by direct drug ... -
The embodiment of wastewater data for the estimation of illicit drug consumption in Spain
Elsevier (2021)Data obtained from wastewater analysis can provide rapid and complementary insights in illicit drug consumption at community level. Within Europe, Spain is an important country of transit of both cocaine and cannabis. The ... -
Wastewater-based epidemiology for tracking human exposure to mycotoxins
Elsevier (2019-01-27)Mycotoxins are among the compounds of most concern for human health because of their common presence in food and their proven toxicity for human health. Human biomonitoring (HBM) studies, foodstuff analysis and dietary ... -
Workflow to facilitate the detection of new psychoactive substances and drugs of abuse in influent urban wastewater
Elsevier (2024-03-08)The complexity around the dynamic markets for new psychoactive substances (NPS) forces researchers to develop and apply innovative analytical strategies to detect and identify them in influent urban wastewater. In this ...
