Journal ArticleDOI
Occurrence and spatial distribution of 158 pharmaceuticals, drugs of abuse and related metabolites in offshore seawater.
Nikiforos A. Alygizakis,Pablo Gago-Ferrero,Viola L. Borova,Alexandra Pavlidou,Ioannis Hatzianestis,Nikolaos S. Thomaidis +5 more
TL;DR: This study provides the first evidence on the occurrence of several pharmaceuticals in marine environment including amoxicillin, lidocaine, citalopram or tramadol, among others, as well as suggesting that currents play an important role in the dilution of the target compounds.
Journal ArticleDOI
Wide-scope target screening of >2000 emerging contaminants in wastewater samples with UPLC-Q-ToF-HRMS/MS and smart evaluation of its performance through the validation of 195 selected representative analytes
Pablo Gago-Ferrero,Anna A. Bletsou,Dimitrios Damalas,Reza Aalizadeh,Nikiforos A. Alygizakis,Heinz Singer,Juliane Hollender,Nikolaos S. Thomaidis +7 more
TL;DR: This study presents the development and validation of a comprehensive quantitative target methodology for the analysis of 2316 emerging pollutants in water based on Ultra-Performance Liquid Chromatography Quadrupole-Time-Of-Flight Mass Spectrometry (UPLC-Q-ToF-HRMS/MS).
Journal ArticleDOI
Spatio‐temporal assessment of illicit drug use at large scale: evidence from 7 years of international wastewater monitoring

TL;DR: In this article, the authors assess spatial and temporal trends of population-normalized mass loads of benzoylecgonine, amphetamine, methamphetamine and 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA) in raw wastewater over 7 years (2011-17), and address overall drug use by estimating the average number of combined doses consumed per day in each city.
Journal ArticleDOI
The impact of on-site hospital wastewater treatment on the downstream communal wastewater system in terms of antibiotics and antibiotic resistance genes.
Gabriela K. Paulus,Luc M. Hornstra,Nikiforos A. Alygizakis,Jaroslav Slobodnik,Nikolaos S. Thomaidis,Gertjan Medema +5 more
TL;DR: On-site hospital wastewater (HWW) treatment reduced gene presence of hospital-related antibiotic resistance genes and antibiotic concentrations in the receiving urban wastewater treatment plant, indicating the need for on-site treatment of high-risk point sources of antibiotics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Exploring the Potential of a Global Emerging Contaminant Early Warning Network through the Use of Retrospective Suspect Screening with High-Resolution Mass Spectrometry.

Schymanski,Emma L. Schymanski,Jaroslav Slobodnik,Nikolaos S. Thomaidis,Kevin V. Thomas,Kevin V. Thomas +16 more
TL;DR: It is proposed to establish a global emerging contaminant early warning network to rapidly assess the spatial and temporal distribution of contaminants of emerging concern in environmental samples through performing retrospective analysis on HRMS data.
