“…Very low limits of detection (LOD) and limits of quantification (LOQ) are achieved when these techniques are coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS), a procedure commonly applied while screening a wide variety of unknown contaminants in non-target analysis [42,43]. A study carried out in France applying online solid phase extraction ultra-power liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (SPE-UPLC-MS/MS) to herbicides and pharmaceutical compounds identified 15 emerging micropollutants in water at low detection and quantification limits averaging 10 ng per litre and 30 ng per litre, respectively [44]. However, research points to some key challenges for their applicability in rapid detections required in point-of-care testing of pesticides.…”

Water constitutes an indispensable resource crucial for the sustenance of humanity, as it plays an integral role in various sectors such as agriculture, industrial processes, and domestic consumption. Even though water covers 71% of the global land surface, governments have been grappling with the challenge of ensuring the provision of safe water for domestic use. A contributing factor to this situation is the persistent contamination of available water sources rendering them unfit for human consumption. A common contaminant, pesticides are not frequently tested for despite their serious effects on biodiversity. Pesticide determination in water quality assessment is a challenging task because the procedures involved in the extraction and detection are complex. This reduces their popularity in many monitoring campaigns despite their harmful effects. If the existing methods of pesticide analysis are adapted by leveraging new technologies, then information concerning their presence in water ecosystems can be exposed. Furthermore, beyond the advantages conferred by the integration of wireless sensor networks (WSNs), the Internet of Things (IoT), Machine Learning (ML), and big data analytics, a notable outcome is the attainment of a heightened degree of granularity in the information of water ecosystems. This paper discusses methods of pesticide detection in water, emphasizing the possible use of electrochemical sensors, biosensors, and paper-based sensors in wireless sensing. It also explores the application of WSNs in water, the IoT, computing models, ML, and big data analytics, and their potential for integration as technologies useful for pesticide monitoring in water.

“…In addition, special equipment and a large number of reagents and consumables are also required in Offline-SPE. Based on the cost and time factors of Offline-SPE, some researchers have developed online solid phase extraction with a large volume injection (Online-SPE), which saves time and some consumables, but also brings new problems: due to the large injection volume, the analysis system is prone to contamination and blockage, and the introduced matrix effect cannot be ignored [12,[21][22][23].…”

The determination of illegal drugs and psychoactive substances in wastewater is increasingly being used to monitor the use of both by populations in specific areas. This article describes a method for the simultaneous determination of 78 illegal drugs and psychoactive substances in wastewater using direct-injection ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS). This method includes the analysis of stimulants, opioids, antidepressants, antipsychotic drugs, anti-anxiety drugs, and hallucinogens. The method was validated in terms of the selectivity, calibration range, recovery, matrix effects, accuracy, precision, limit of detection (LOD), and limit of quantification (LOQ). The correlation coefficients were higher than 0.99 for all analytes, and the calibration range was from 0.2 to 500 ng/L. The LOD and LOQ of this method were 0.1–1 ng/L and 0.2–5 ng/L, respectively. The intra- and inter-day precisions were <9.3% and 11.4%, respectively, and the recovery ranged from 81.3% to 117.7%. The method was applied to real domestic wastewater collected from wastewater treatment plants, and the results showed that morphine, codeine, and ephedrine were detected in all samples. Some samples also contained other illegal drugs and psychoactive substances (such as etomidate, methamphetamine, ketamine, and tramadol). This indicates that the direct-injection UHPLC-MS/MS method can be used for the rapid determination of illegal drugs and psychoactive substances in wastewater.

“…In this study, we developed a comprehensive method for the quantitative determination of 308 pesticides in surface water samples by combining online solid phase extraction (SPE) and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) [29,30]. We also developed a qualitative pesticide determination method using a metabolite research technique [31].…”

Pesticides are beneficial in protecting crops from pests and improving agricultural productivity; however, concerns on pesticide pollution in water have increased due to their indiscriminate use and lack of adequate regulations. Many studies have focused on the risks of pesticides considering the limited number and types of pesticide residues in crops and soils, and duration, and very few have focused on surface water throughout the year. Therefore, this study comprehensively identified 308 pesticides in surface water samples collected monthly over one year in the Saemangeum Basin, Korea. Both targeted and non-targeted analyses were used to identify 171 and 24 pesticides, respectively. Results highlight the extensive extent of pesticide contamination. Among the quantified pesticides, bromobutide and pretilachlor consistently exhibited high concentrations and risk levels, as indicated by their elevated risk quotient (RQ) values. Seasonal variations in pesticide concentrations revealed distinct patterns with intensified herbicide use during summer and increased insecticide concentrations during autumn. This study highlights the presence, distribution, and associated ecological risks of pesticides in surface waters, emphasizing the necessity of comprehensive monitoring and regulatory measures to protect aquatic ecosystems. The high RQ values identified for specific pesticides underscore the urgent need to implement effective strategies to mitigate these environmental risks.
