“…This study builds up on three earlier communications of the presence of DBPs [ 32 ], micropollutants [ 33 ] and micro(nano) plastic [ 34 ] in the same water samples but provides important additional insights into the potential harm DBPs may cause. Bioassays are useful screening tools for drinking water quality and removal of DBPs.…”

“…The objective of this study was to complement the previous work on exposure to regulated and non-regulated DPB in the BMA [ 32 ], micropollutants [ 33 ] and micro(nano) plastic [ 34 ] by effect-based method that capture the entirety of mixture exposure of extracted micropollutants and DBPs with a focus on cytotoxicity, activation of oxidative stress response and neurotoxicity. Iceberg modelling, a specific form of mixture toxicity modelling, was used to identify mixture effect drivers for the endpoint of oxidative stress response.…”

“…Notably, nanomicroplastics, ranging from 0.7 to 20 µm, were detected in Barcelona tap water at notable concentrations, up to 19 µg/L. Diverse polymers such as polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), polyisoprene (PI), polybutadiene (PBD), polystyrene (PS), polyamide (PA), and polydimethylsiloxanes (PDMS) have been identified [14].…”

“…Li et al detected microplastics in tap water from China, and microplastic abundance ranged from 1.67 µg/L to 2.08 µg/L with a size of 58-255 nm [14]. In the Barcelona Metropolitan Area, the concentration of microplastic polymers ranged from 1 ng/L to 9 µg/L in household water (HW; 0.70-20 µm) [15]. In comparison, only 0.7 items/m 3 were detected in tap water from the Oldenburg-East-Frisian water board [16], which was lower than previously reported.…”
