Elevated Concentrations of 4-Bromobiphenyl and 1,3,5-Tribromobenzene Found in Deep Water of Lake Geneva Based on GCxGC-ENCI-TOFMS and GCxGC-mu ECD

Jeremy Samuel Arey, Saer Samanipour, Petros Dimitriou Christidis, Deedar Nabi

We quantified the concentrations of two little-studied brominated pollutants, 1,3,5-tribromobenzene (TBB) and 4-bromobiphenyl (4BBP), in the deep water column and sediments of Lake Geneva. We found aqueous concentrations of 625 +/- 68 pg L-1 for TBB and 66 ...

Overlooked persistent and bioaccumulative pollutants in Lake Geneva : their measurement, occurrence, and concentration distribution in the water column and sediments

Saer Samanipour

Persistent and bioaccumulative pollutants (PBPs) are continually introduced into the environment as a part of the massive ongoing chemical production that began several decades ago. The PBPs include several chemical families such as: industrial compounds, ...

GCxGC Quantification of Priority and Emerging Nonpolar Halogenated Micropollutants in All Types of Wastewater Matrices: Analysis Methodology, Chemical Occurrence, and Partitioning

Jeremy Samuel Arey, Jonas Gros, Juliane Hollender, Saer Samanipour, Petros Dimitriou Christidis, Alex Bonvin, Rebecca Rutler, Jimmy Westphale

We report the development and validation of a method to detect and quantify diverse nonpolar halogenated micropollutants in wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) influent, effluent, primary sludge, and secondary sludge matrices (including both the liquid and p ...

Analyte quantification with Comprehensive Two-Dimensional Gas Chromatography: Assessment of methods for baseline correction, peak delineation, and matrix effect elimination for real samples

Jeremy Samuel Arey, Jonas Gros, Saer Samanipour, Petros Dimitriou Christidis, Auréline Grange

Comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography (GC x GC) is used widely to separate and measure organic chemicals in complex mixtures. However, approaches to quantify analytes in real, complex samples have not been critically assessed. We quantified 7 PA ...
