Acid Treatment effects on the stable isotopic signature of fossils
(2012)Prior to geochemical analyses, fossil bones and teeth are often extracted from any surrounding lithified sediments using chemical techniques such as immersion in acid. As stable isotope analysis becomes more commonplace ... -
An analysis of the spatio-temporal occurrence of anthelmintic veterinary drug residues in groundwater
(2021)Anthelmintics are antiparasitic drugs used to control helminthic parasites such as nematodes and trematodes in animals, particularly those exposed through pasture-based production systems. Even though anthelmintics have ... -
Apatite Chlorine Concentration Measurements by LA-ICP-MS
(2014)Apatite incorporates variable and significant amounts of halogens (mainly F and Cl) in its crystal structure, which can be used to determine the initial F and Cl concentrations of magmas. The amount of chlorine in the ... -
Development and optimisation of a multi-residue method for the determination of 40 anthelmintic drugs in environmental water samples by solid phase extraction (SPE) with LC-MS/MS detection
(MDPI, 2019-05-22)A comprehensive multiresidue method was developed and validated for the determination of 40 anthelmintic compounds, including 13 transformation products, in surface and groundwater samples at sub nanogram per litre (ng ... -
Flow cytometry and fecal indicator bacteria analyses for fingerprinting microbial pollution in karst aquifer systems
(2022)Microbial pollution of aquifers is a persistent water quality problem globally which poses significant risks to public health. Karst aquifer systems are exceptionally vulnerable to pollution from fecal contamination sources ... -
An investigation of anticoccidial veterinary drugs as emerging organic contaminants in groundwater
(Elsevier, 2020)Intensification of the food production system to meet increased global demand for food has led to veterinary pharmaceuticals becoming a critical component in animal husbandry. Anticoccidials are a group of veterinary ... -
Multiple fluorescence approaches to identify rapid changes in microbial indicators at karst springs
(2023)Karst springs are globally important for drinking water supply but are often also exceptionally vulnerable to contamination. Such springs usually exhibit strong variation in microbial water quality in sharp response to ... -
Neoproterozoic crystalline exotic clasts in the Polish Outer Carpathian flysch: remnants of the Proto-Carpathian continent?
(2019)Crystalline exotic boulders within the sedimentary sequences of the Outer Carpathians likely represent Proto-Carpathian basement, which was exposed and eroded during the Mesozoic and Cenozoic evolution of the Western ... -
A new sensitive method for the simultaneous chromatographic separation and tandem mass spectrometry detection of anticoccidials, including highly polar compounds, in environmental waters
(Elsevier, 2020)A sensitive and selective method was developed and validated for the determination of 26 anticoccidial compounds (six ionophores and twenty chemical coccidiostats) in surface and groundwater samples at parts-per-quadrillion ... -
Petrological, mineralogical and geochemical peculiarities of Archaean cratons
(2019)The most outstanding features of Archaean cratons are their extraordinary thickness and enduring longevity. Seismically, Archaean cratonic fragments are sharply-bounded deep roots of mechanically strong, cold lithospheric ... -
Reaction Pathways toward the Formation of Bastnäsite: Replacement of Calcite by Rare Earth Carbonates
(2021)The interaction of rare earth bearing (La, Nd, Dy) aqueous solutions with calcite crystals at ambient and hydrothermal conditions (25–220 °C) results in the solvent-mediated surface precipitation and subsequent pseudomorphic ... -
Volcanic crystals as time capsules of eruption history
(2018)Crystals formed prior to a volcanic event can provide evidence of processes leading to and timing of eruptions. Clinopyroxene is common in basaltic to intermediate volcanoes, however, its ability as a recorder of pre-eruptive ... -
Wanted Dead or Alive: Skeletal Structure Alteration of Cold-Water Coral Desmophyllum pertusum (Lophelia pertusa) from Anthropogenic Stressors
(2023)Ocean acidification (OA) has provoked changes in the carbonate saturation state that may alter the formation and structural biomineralisation of calcium carbonate exoskeletons for marine organisms. Biomineral production ...
