TL;DR: The major factor in the removal of FQs in the STP was sorption to sludge, which was not governed by hydrophobic interactions, and a significant positive correlation was found between removal efficiencies and K(d) of F Qs.

TL;DR: Different profiles of progestogens in the receiving rivers and WWTP effluents were observed, which could be explained by the discharge of a mixture of treated and untreated wastewater into the receiving Rivers.

TL;DR: The transcriptional activation-induced by products were detected by a yeast two-hybrid system based on the ligand-dependent interaction of two proteins, a human ER and a coactivator, suggesting that the chlorinated BPA solution elicits an ability to mimic the effect of the estrogen hormone.

TL;DR: This study investigated the occurrence and fate of oxytetracycline (OTC) and its related substances, 4-epi-oxytetracyCline (EOTC), alpha-apo-oxytracy Cline (alpha-apo)-OTC, and beta-apo (beta-apo) in a wastewater treatment plant treating OTC production wastewater and a river receiving the effluent from the WWTP using liquid chromatography electrospray ionization mass spect

TL;DR: A principal component analyses with multiple linear regression based on the profiles of all target compounds was applied to identify the source apportionment and to predict the contribution from different sources and it was found that 62.7% of the mean summed hormones were contributed by freshly discharged untreated sewage.
