Assessing the Genotoxic Effects of Emerging Organic Contaminants in Water Systems: Current Trends and Future Directions

open access: yesScientifica, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Emerging organic contaminants (EOCs) represent a growing concern for global water security due to their persistence, bioactivity, and potential to induce genotoxic effects in aquatic organisms and humans. This review critically examines the current state of genotoxicity assessment for EOCs by integrating established testing frameworks with advanced ...
