Illicit drugs, a novel group of environmental contaminants

E. ZUCCATO ; S. CASTIGLIONI ; R. BAGNATI ; C. CHIABRANDO ; P. GRASSI ; R. FANELLI | 2008
Dans Water Research (Vol.42, n°4-5, February 2008) Article : Périodique

It is now well established that residues from therapeutic drugs consumed by humans can end up, through the sewage system, in the surface water of populated areas. Given that the global production of major illicit drugs is comparable to that of w[...]

Population surveys compared with wastewater analysis for monitoring illicit drug consumption in Italy in 2010-2014

E. ZUCCATO ; S. CASTIGLIONI ; I. SENTA ; A. BORSOTTI ; B. GENETTI ; A. ANDREOTTI ; G. PIERETTI ; G. SERPELLONI | 2016
Dans Drug and Alcohol Dependence (Vol.161, April 2016) Article : Périodique

Background: Monitoring consumption by population surveys (PS) is an important way to challenge the spread of illicit drugs (ID). To improve the information, we explored a complementary method, particularly wastewater analysis (WWA). Methods: We[...]
