| Abstract | There are many emerging contaminants with disrupting properties on the endocrine system, including some pesticides, pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) that can get into water bodies through leaking due to pesticides use in farming, leaching from landfills or discharge of wastewater into water sources. In Romania, there is a lack of data on the endocrine disrupting compounds (EDC) and PPCPs existing in different types of water. In this study, it was evaluated, by means of high performance liquid chromatography techniques (UHPLC), the drinking water quality, as well as quality of the WWTP effluents, regarding EDCs and PPCPs contamination, in order to provide information about the wastewater impact on receiving surface waters. The results showed the presence of the pharmaceutical chemicals from benzodiazepine class in all analyzed water samples |
