Travail en cours

My current work involves: (I) elucidating the formation mechanisms of carcinogenic/mutagenic N-nitrosamines in aquatic systems under varying environmental conditions, (II) developing new analytical tools to detect and quantify N-nitroso compounds in water and biological fluids, and (III) elucidating the role of disinfection agents in the prevalence of antibiotic resistant bacteria in wastewater
