So exciting to see this work supported by the IMPACT project published - congrats David!
Thrilled to see this paper on cypermethrin effect on mayfly and stonefly larvae by an undergraduate student David Crowley published open access doi.org/10.1016/j.limno.2021β¦

Amazing day for sampling by the Liffey! Thanks to the kayakers for the help! π©πΌβπ¬ βοΈ #liffey #sampling #PPCPs #pharmaceuticals #wateranalysis #water #dcu

Another empty day at uni! But all samples prepared and ready to be analysed! We missed the lab!!π©πΌβπ¬ #science #water #sampleanalysis

After almost 3 months we are finally back in tha lab! Preparing samples never felt so good!! π©πΌβπ¬π #science #water #research #weareback
Chemistry research day was great! It was really nice to listen to so many interesting research topics! Thanks for organising it @PGAC_DCU !!

Looking forward to listening to Helena Rapp Wright and Imogen Hands in a session discussion about Occurrence, Fate, Transport and Reactivity of Emerging Micropollutants in Aquatic Systems at Setac at 3:45 pm (UTC)! #SETACSciCon #setac2020 #emergingcontaminants #water
Research like this is essential to increase our understanding of how emerging contaminants can enter our environment
Landfill leachates πποΈπ§ are an important source of various #EmergingContaminants
Our new article on the application of our wide-scope target analysis π― of >2000 emerging contaminants ππΏπ‘π on landfill leachates

Delighted to have Dr. Leon Barron as a collaborator on our project, his knowledge and expertise on LCMS analysis of drugs in waste waters is a massive benefit to us @EPAResearchNews @DCUWater

This is what out project is all about - what contaminants of emerging concern are in Irish water? An incredibly important topic for us all @EPAResearchNews @DCUWater @DublinCityUni
πππ πππππππππ: Contaminants of emerging concern (#CECs) are identified contaminants which have raised concern about their ecological or human health impacts. #WaterJPI #WaterJPIkhcec #emergingcontaminants #waterquality #watercontamination #wasterwater #drinkingwater
Huge congratulations to our ecotoxicology task leader @jaypiggott !! So richly deserved! @IrishResearch @EPAResearchNews
Amazing talk from Dr Leon Barron at ICRAPHE about the occurrence, bioconcentration, metabolomics and behavioural effects of pharmaceuticals in freshwater invertebrates! #water #research #chemistry #icraphe #Barcelona
Thank you for the overwhelming responses. We have now found enough collaborators and we will try to contact you asap! Thank you ππ§

Do you want to know what sort of contaminants are in the rivers close to your home? We're looking for help collecting river water samples -using a very simple collection method- from all over Ireland using these tiny bottles. Your help with this project would make a huge impact!
We're testing for #cypermethrin in Irish water bodies @DCUWater, really hoping not to detect it but images like this one don't inspire confidence...
Thankfully practices like using for rivers for sheep dipping are no longer common practice - right ?! #cypermethrin, a synthetic pyrethroid insecticide has a high aquatic toxicity and not something you want in your drinking water.
Learning a lot of new open access softwares for NTS at SWEMSA 2019! Canβt wait to use them with our data! #water #non-targetscreening #chemistry #analyticalchemistry
