Journal ArticleDOI
The occurrence of antibiotics in an urban watershed: from wastewater to drinking water.
TL;DR: Investigation within watersheds of South-East Queensland, Australia found the presence of 28 antibiotics in three hospital effluents, five wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs), six rivers and a drinking water storage catchment was investigated, with further evidence that WWTPs are an important source of antibiotics to streams.
Journal ArticleDOI
Removal of antibiotics in conventional and advanced wastewater treatment: implications for environmental discharge and wastewater recycling.
TL;DR: Certain traditional parameters, including nitrate concentration, conductivity and turbidity of the effluent were assessed as predictors of total antibiotic concentration, however only conductivity demonstrated any correlation with total antibiotics concentration.
Journal ArticleDOI
Is there a risk associated with the insect repellent DEET (N,N-diethyl-m-toluamide) commonly found in aquatic environments?
TL;DR: Risks to aquatic biota at observed environmental concentrations is minimal and data available was not sufficient to conduct a full risk assessment due to data deficiencies in source characterisation, transport mechanisms, fate, and ecotoxicity studies, warrant further investigation.
