Contaminants of Emerging Concern
Contaminants of emerging concern, or CECs, can be broadly defined as chemicals that have been recently detected in the environment and that may pose public health or ecological risks. CECs encompass a wide variety of chemicals, including pharmaceuticals and household chemicals. Many CECs differ from conventional environmental contaminants such as pesticides, metals, polychlorinated biphenyls (P...
متن کاملEmerging Organic Contaminants in Groundwater
Emerging organic contaminants (ECs) are compounds now being found in groundwater from agricultural, urban sources that were previously not detectable, or thought to be significant. ECs include pesticides and degradates, pharmaceuticals, industrial compounds, personal care products, fragrances, water treatment byproducts, flame retardants and surfactants, as well as ‘life-style’ compounds such a...
متن کاملSmall solutions to big problems: microRNAs for cardiac regeneration.
H eart disease is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in the developed world. Patient recovery after cardiac injury is hampered by the extremely limited regen-erative capacity of the adult mammalian heart. In addition to cell-based approaches and in situ cardiac reprogramming , significant interest has been focused on genetic and small molecule–based strategies to enhance endogenous cardio...
متن کاملWater analysis: emerging contaminants and current issues.
This biennial review covers developments in water analysis over the period of 2003-2004. A few significant references that appeared between January and February 2005 are also included. Analytical Chemistry’s current policy is to limit reviews to include 100-200 significant references and to mainly focus on new trends. As a result, as was done in the previous 2003 water analysis review (1), this...
متن کاملEmerging chemical contaminants in water and wastewater.
Recent advances in environmental analytical chemistry have resulted in an explosion of knowledge regarding the presence of previously undetectable chemical contaminants in water and wastewater. Many of these contaminants are anthropogenic, resulting from commercial products from human society and subsequently dispersed throughout the aquatic environment, passing between wastewater effluents, na...
