Occurrence and distribution of pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) detected in lakes around the world - A review
This review presents a compilation of pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) that have been detected in waters, sediments and biota of lakes throughout the world by various researchers, over a 26-year time period (1996–2021). Numerous studies published in the literature reported that 286...

Numerous studies published in the literature reported that 286 pharmaceuticals and 70 personal care products (PCPs) were present in waters, 101 pharmaceuticals and 50 PCPs were present in sediments, and 63 pharmaceuticals and 19 PCPs were present in biota of lakes throughout the world. Among the pharmaceuticals present in lake waters, 194 had concentrations of over 5 ng/L, 173 were present in only one continent, whereas several (e.g. caffeine, carbamazepine and sulfamethoxazole) were detected in lake waters of almost every continent (6/7).
