Trends in nitrate levels in Iowa's community water systems (2000–2022): Characteristics of systems vulnerable to maximum contaminant level exceedances and future regulatory scenarios

Journal of Environmental Quality, Volume 55, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Abstract This study examines trends in nitrate contamination in Iowa's community water systems (CWS) from 2000 to 2022, focusing on the characteristics of CWS that are most vulnerable to elevated nitrate levels and those likely to be impacted by a lower maximum contaminant level (MCL).

Formation of trihalomethanes by the disinfection of drinking water

, 2003
Disinfection of natural water resources by chlorination to produce potable water results in the production of trihalomethanes. A number of environmental authorities have suggested that these trihalomethanes might have toxic and carcinogenic properties ...

Development of a simple analytical method for determining trihalomethanes in beer using a headspace solid-phase microextraction technique

Química Nova, 2013
We developed a simple, rapid, and solventless method for analyzing trihalomethanes in beer samples using headspace solid-phase microextraction. The effects of varying experimental parameters, such as extraction temperature and time, addition of sodium ...

Contaminants of emerging concern in agricultural soils: Current understanding, overlooked issues, and future priorities

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 3, Page 792-810, May 2026.
Contaminants of emerging concern (CECs) in agriculture represent a growing global challenge for food safety and public health. In this review, we synthesized evidence on how substances such as pharmaceuticals, microplastics, and per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) enter soils, accumulate in crops, and affect ecological and human health. We found

Investigation of Potential Risks in Bio‐Based Food Contact Materials (FCMs) From Microbial Exploitation of Agricultural Wastes: Case Studies of Bacterial Cellulose and Nisin

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 3, May 2026.
ABSTRACT In the context of the circular economy and the increasing demand for safe and sustainable packaging, this work addresses the safety assessment of food contact materials (FCMs) derived from agro‐industrial by‐products. Despite growing interest in these bio‐based materials, the literature still lacks a structured safety‐assessment framework able

Nanoborate Based Decontamination of Poultry Carcasses

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
Nanoborate solutions are a promising alternative for decontamination of poultry carcasses. Compared to chlorine dioxide, nanoborate solutions‐treated carcasses consistently exhibited greater microbial control and approximately 50% longer shelf life. ABSTRACT Despite the implementation of strict biosecurity and food safety systems in broiler production,

Contamination of Bathing Waters with Trihalomethanes in Slovenia

Zdravniški Vestnik, 2015
THM and AOX compounds form as by-products of disinfection with the use of chlorine. THM compounds can pose problems for pool water, while AOX compounds can be problematic for waste water.

Recent Advances in Piezocatalysis and Piezo‐Photocatalysis in Energy and Environment: Materials, Design, and Applications

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Piezocatalytic technology utilizes mechanical strain or stress‐induced piezoelectric phenomena to produce robust internal electric fields, markedly improving the separation efficiency of e−‐h+ pairs. This method has emerged as a focal point in catalysis by removing reliance on conventional light or electrical energy via its mechanical‐to ...
