摘要: As with other anthropogenic substances, aquatic systems become the final recipient of pharmaceuticals, being found in surface water wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) effluents, and even drinking water. These compounds their metabolites continuously enter environment largely through effluents from WWTPs because incomplete elimination or sporadic direct discharge. Although pharmaceuticals are designed as bioactive molecules to treat diseases, low concentrations can affect nontarget organisms, harmful effects reported at environmentally relevant concentrations.
