Journal ArticleDOI
Removal of Pharmaceuticals in Sewage Treatment Plants in Italy
Sara Castiglioni,Renzo Bagnati,Roberto Fanelli,Francesco Pomati,Davide Calamari,Ettore Zuccato +5 more
TL;DR: The distribution and fate of residual pharmaceuticals in the surface waters receiving the effluents of the STPs were studied and degradation and sorption were identified as the major factors affecting attenuation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Presence of therapeutic drugs in the environment
TL;DR: Most drugs thought to be putative priority pollutants were measurable in drinking or river waters and sediments, suggesting that pharmaceutical products are widespread contaminants, with possible implications for human health and the environment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Strategic Survey of Therapeutic Drugs in the Rivers Po and Lambro in Northern Italy
TL;DR: The patterns of contamination showed differences among sub-basins which correlated with the presence of large human settlements and/or animal farms, and the ratio of measured to predicted concentrations (MEC/...
Journal ArticleDOI
Estimating community drug abuse by wastewater analysis.
TL;DR: Searching the sewage for excreted compounds relevant to public health issues appears to have the potential to become a convenient source of real-time epidemiologic information.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cocaine in surface waters: a new evidence-based tool to monitor community drug abuse
Ettore Zuccato,Chiara Chiabrando,Sara Castiglioni,Sara Castiglioni,Davide Calamari,Renzo Bagnati,Silvia Schiarea,Roberto Fanelli +7 more
TL;DR: It is shown for the first time that an illicit drug, cocaine, is present in the aquatic environment, namely untreated urban waste water and a major river, and used environmental cocaine levels for estimating collective consumption of the drug.
