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. The 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.

Using mussel as a global bioindicator of coastal microplastic pollution (2019)
Journal Article
Li, J., Lusher, A. L., Rotchell, J. M., Deudero, S., Turra, A., Bråte, I. L. N., …Shi, H. (2019). Using mussel as a global bioindicator of coastal microplastic pollution. Environmental Pollution, 244, 522-533. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.envpol.2018.10.032

The ubiquity and high bioavailability of microplastics have an unknown risk on the marine environment. Bio-monitoring should be used to investigate biotic impacts of microplastic exposure. While many studies have used mussels as indicators for marine... Read More about Using mussel as a global bioindicator of coastal microplastic pollution.
