Analytical and Toxicological Characterization of Novel Nitrogen Containing Disinfection Byproducts
DownloadFall 2012
Disinfection byproducts (DBPs) are an unwanted consequence of water disinfection. Consumption of chlorinated drinking water has been associated with an increased risk of bladder cancer; however, the DBP or DBPs responsible has not been identified. The N-nitrosamines are a class of DBPs that are...

Analytical Characterization of Halobenzoquinones as Emerging Disinfection Byproducts in Disinfected Water
DownloadSpring 2016
Water disinfection is necessary for killing pathogens, but it causes an unintended chemical risk from the formation of disinfection byproducts (DBPs). Epidemiological studies show a potential association of water disinfection with increased risk of bladder cancer. It is unknown what DBPs are...

The detection of specific proteins and deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) can be used for disease diagnostics, pathogen identification, and the study of biological processes. Many proteins and nucleic acids occur at low concentrations, making their detection challenging. The detection of trace-level DNA...

Occurrence and fate of pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) at a northern wastewater treatment facility
DownloadSpring 2017
The occurrence of pharmaceutical and personal care products (PPCPs) in municipal wastewater treatment plants (WWTP) is an emerging environmental issue. Among other concerns, aquatic invertebrates sampled from WWTP have measurable concentrations of PPCPs, which have been found to cause adverse...
