Lycopodium clavatum sporopollenin exine capsules (SpECs) are known to both adsorb and absorb chemicals. The aim of the present work was to determine whether oestradiol (E2) is ‘bioavailable’ to bioindicator species, either pre-adsorbed to, or in the...

Spatial and temporal occurrence of pharmaceuticals in UK estuaries (2019)
Journal Article
Letsinger, S., Kay, P., Rodriguez-Mozaz, S., Villagrassa, M., Barceló, D., & Rotchell, J. M. (2019). Spatial and temporal occurrence of pharmaceuticals in UK estuaries. Science of the Total Environment, 678, 74-84. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.scitotenv.2019.04.182

There is a lack of data on the occurrence of pharmaceuticals in estuaries worldwide, with little understanding of their temporal and spatial variations globally. Ibuprofen, paracetamol, diclofenac, trimethoprim and citalopram were measured in twelve... Read More about Spatial and temporal occurrence of pharmaceuticals in UK estuaries.
