- Occurrence and elimination of antibiotics at four sewage treatment plants in the Pearl River Delta (PRD), South China. (2007, background): “Most drugs are designed in a stable condition so that they can retain their chemical structure long enough to do their therapeutic function (Ternes et al., 2004).”
- Ecotoxicology of human pharmaceuticals. (2006, background): “…up to 81% for acetylsalicylic acid, 96% for propranolol, and 99% for salicylic acid (Ternes, 1998; Ternes et a al r l of b een S xen ( t r rmac igh t en, k TPs i r eatm ary t rast m , to t a xi d T is ow, as was demonstrated in several monitoring stu Ternes et al., 2004; Urase and Kikuta, 2005).”
- Effluent from an NSAID-Manufacturing Plant in Mexico Induces Oxidative Stress on Cyprinus carpio (2013, background): “…cytochrome P450-mediated biotransformation, and by bacterial activity probably due to diversification of the metabolic activity of microorganisms (Ternes et al. 2004), which in many cases result in the formation of metabolites that are more toxic than the original pharmaceutical agent (Lam et…”
- Removal of pharmaceuticals and personal care products from wastewater using algae-based technologies: a review (2017, background): “Even though, co-metabolism is believed to be the main process responsible for the degradation of PPCPs in WWTPs due to the fact that PPCPs are usually present in wastewater at low concentration levels within the ng L-1 to lg L-1 rang, which may not be higher enough to maintain the growth of microbes”
- A review on the occurrence of micropollutants in the aquatic environment and their fate and removal during wastewater treatment. (2014, background): “…and the lipophilic cell membrane of microorganisms as well as the fat fractions of sludge, and (2) adsorption, involving the electrostatic interactions of the positively charged groups with the negatively charged surfaces of the microorganisms and sludge (e.g. amino groups) (Ternes et al., 2004).”
- Review of risk from potential emerging contaminants in UK groundwater. (2012, background): “…through treatment may not be in the fully dissolved state and are often as glucuronaric acid or sulphate conjugates which enhances their polarity before excretion, and makes them harder to remove, but which can be cleaved during treatment to release further active ingredient (Ternes et al., 2004).”
- Adsorption and thermodynamic study of Cephalosporins antibiotics from aqueous solution onto MgO nanoparticles (2014, background): “Inevitably, they are discharged into aquatic environments via domestic wastewater effluent with concentrations of mg-per-litre range, disposal of expired pharmaceuticals, and excretion as original or metabolized forms [1].”
