Description
Summary:[Display omitted] •Assessment of aquatic pollution levels using a sentinel organism: mussels samples.•Development of multi-residue methods for quantifying several pollutants classes.•Optimization of original sample extraction and pre-concentration using detergent. The release of hazardous chemicals into aquatic environments has long been a known problem, but its full impact has only recently been realized. This study presents a validated liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (HPLC–MS/MS) method for detecting pharmaceutical and pesticide residues in mussels (Mytilus galloprovincialis). An innovative MS-compatible extraction method was developed and validated, demonstrating successful recovery rates for analytes at three different concentration levels (25–95%). The method detected the target analytes at ng/g concentrations with high accuracy (−7% to 11%) and low relative standard deviation (
