Nuclear Magnetic Reaction (NMR) spectroscopy is a widely employed technique in the detection and quantification of chemical compounds, with a wide range of applications. In this manuscript, the focus is put on two of them: the detection of pollutants in drinking water and the monitoring of chemical reactions. While laboratory NMR equipment presents...
Pesticide use is known to have deleterious effects on non-target organisms’ physiology and behavior even at sublethal doses. Despite progress in the integration of behavioral indicators in ecotoxicological assays, tests are often conducted using a substance-by-substance approach. However, field-contamination is rarely due to a unique substance, but...
Two years of monthly sampling and hydrological monitoring were performed at the outlet of a Mediterranean watershed in northern Tunisia to determine the contents of 469 pesticide active ingredients and metabolites in water and evaluate their behavior. Wadi Guenniche is a tributary of the Bizerte coastal lagoon, with a watershed area of 86 km2, whic...
A l'horizon 2030, la plupart des projections sur la consommation mondiale en eau prévoit un déficit en eau douce de l'ordre de 40 %. Dans ce contexte, les Objectifs de Développement Durable de l'agenda 2030 des Nations Unies ont ciblé les eaux usées comme nouvelle ressource en eau mais les eaux rejets de station d'épuration ne sont pas sans risques...
Abstract The neutralization of organophosphorous (OP) chemical agents used in modern warfare is a growing concern due to their extreme toxicity to human cells. In several previous works, although the capability of several Zr‐MOF‐based catalysts has been showcased to facilitate hydrolysis of OP agents in heterogeneous pathways, their usage appeared ...
Abstract There is an urgent need by the European Union to establish baseline levels for many widespread pollutants and to set out specific levels for these under the Zero pollution action plan. To date, few systematic reviews, superseded by bibliometric analyses, have explored this issue. Even less research has been carried out to compare the effic...
L'évaluation des risques environnementaux liés aux produits chimiques se base sur des tests écotoxicologiquessur diverses espèces d'organismes. La construction de ces tests a notamment été faite selon l'hypothèse forte que la sensibilité d’une espèce est bien décrite par la sensibilité de l’individu moyen avec une définition de paramètresécotoxicol...
