• Microbially Mediated Degradation of Common Pharmaceuticals and Personal Care Products in Soil Under Aerobic and Reduced Oxygen Conditions (2011, background): “Triclosan, an antimicrobial disinfectant found in a wide array of personal care cleansers and household cleaning products and plastics, has been identified as one of the most commonly occurring chemicals in effluent fed surface waters (Kolpin et al. 2002; Focazio et al. 2008).”
• Reverse osmosis desalination: water sources, technology, and today's challenges. (2009, neutral): “Water reuse has been used to provide water for uses such as irrigation, power plant cooling water, industrial process water, and groundwater recharge and has been accepted as a method for indirect drinking water production (Focazio et al., 2008; Fono et al., 2006; Sedlak et al., 2000).”
• Antibiotics in the aquatic environments: A review of the European scenario. (2016, background): “The detected concentrations generally range from ng L−1 to μg L−1 according to the aqueous environment matrices (Barnes et al., 2008; Focazio et al., 2008; Tamtam et al., 2008; Jiang et al., 2011; Homem et al., 2014; Tong et al., 2014).”
• Occurrence, fate, and ecotoxicity of antibiotics in agro-ecosystems. A review (2011, background): “…widespread in surface waters (Lindsey et al. 2001; Christian et al. 2003; Managaki et al. 2007) and groundwaters (Sacher et al. 2001; Lindsey et al. 2001; Kolpin et al. 2002; Hamscher et al. 2005; Focazio et al. 2008), particularly the persistent, soluble species, e.g., CTC (Kolpin et al. 2002).”
• Occurrence of Azoxystrobin, Propiconazole, and Selected Other Fungicides in US Streams, 2005–2006 (2011, background): “Annual yield losses of 50% or greater in the southern US and a least 10% in the upper Midwest have been predicted ( Dorrance et al. 2005 ).”
• Emerging organic contaminants in groundwater: A review of sources, fate and occurrence. (2012, background): “The results compared well with the findings of Barnes et al. (2008) and Focazio et al. (2008) for the USA in terms of frequency for selected compounds.”
• Emerging contaminants in surface waters and their relevance for the production of drinking water in Europe (2010, background): “…which toxicity data still are scarce, are persistent, although better soluble in water than brominated ones, and several studies have reported their presence in surface and waste waters (Andresen et al. 2007; Stackelberg et al. 2007; Focazio et al. 2008; Reemtsma et al. 2008; Terzic et al. 2008).”
