Dans Science of the Total Environment (Vol.432, 15 August 2012) Article : Périodique

The analysis of sewage for urinary biomarkers of illicit drugs is a promising and complementary approach for estimating the use of these substances in the general population. For the first time, this approach was simultaneously applied in 19 Eur[...]

A comparison between wastewater-based drug data and an illicit drug use survey in a selected community

J. H. P. VAN WEL ; J. KINYUA ; A. L. N. VAN NUIJS ; S. SALVATORE ; J. G. BRAMNESS ; A. COVACI ; G. VAN HAL | 2016
Dans International Journal of Drug Policy (Vol.34, August 2016) Article : Périodique

Background: Estimations of drug use are mostly based on population surveys that can suffer from response biases. The current study evaluates using wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE) for assessing illicit drug use by comparing wastewater data wi[...]

Estimating the size of drug markets in selected European cities using wastewater-derived data on drug and drug metabolite residues : Background paper commissioned by the EMCDDA

M. QUIREYNS ; T. BOOGAERTS ; N. VAN WICHELEN ; A. COVACI ; A. L. N. VAN NUIJS | 2023
Rapport

Wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE) is proving to be a promising tool to back-estimate illicit drug market sizes. Within the framework of the Sewage analysis CORe group Europe (SCORE) network, influent wastewater (IWW) samples were analysed for [...]

Evaluating the potential of wastewater-based epidemiology to estimate the retail illicit drug market size in Europe: A case study

M. QUIREYNS ; N. VAN WICHELEN ; T. BOOGAERTS ; T. SURMONT ; A. CUNNINGHAM ; J. MATIAS ; C. GYS ; A. COVACI ; A. L. N. VAN NUIJS | 2025
Dans International Journal of Drug Policy (Vol.139, May 2025) Article : Périodique

Background and aims: Estimating the retail drug market size is complex due to its clandestine nature, yet useful for intervention and policy planning. Wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE) offers an alternative strategy to estimate population-wide[...]

Qualitative screening for new psychoactive substances in wastewater collected during a city festival using liquid chromatography coupled to high-resolution mass spectrometry

A. CAUSANILLES ; J. KINYUA ; C. RUTTKIES ; A. L. N. VAN NUIJS ; E. EMKE ; A. COVACI ; P. DE VOOGT | 2017
Dans Chemosphere (Vol.184, October 2017) Article : Périodique

The inclusion of new psychoactive substances (NPS) in the wastewater-based epidemiology approach presents challenges, such as the reduced number of users that translates into low concentrations of residues and the limited pharmacokinetics inform[...]

Screening for illicit drugs in pooled human urine and urinated soil samples and studies on the stability of urinary excretion products of cocaine, MDMA, and MDEA in wastewater by hyphenated mass spectrometry techniques

M. MARDAL ; J. KINYUA ; P. RAMIN ; B. MISEREZ ; A. L. N. VAN NUIJS ; A. COVACI ; M. R. MEYER | 2017
Dans Drug Testing and Analysis (Vol.9, n°1-2, January-February 2017) Article : Périodique

Monitoring population drug use through wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE) is a useful method to quantitatively follow trends and estimate total drug consumption in communities. Concentrations of drug biomarkers might be low in wastewater due to[...]

Dans Drug Testing and Analysis (Vol.7, n°9-10, September-October 2015) Article : Périodique

Sewage-based epidemiology (SBE) employs the analysis of sewage to detect and quantify drug use within a community. While SBE has been applied repeatedly for the estimation of classical illicit drugs, only few studies investigated new psychoactiv[...]
