Concentrations of 504 organic micropollutants in 445 European streams by LC-HRMS target screening

The data file contains measured environmental concentrations of organic micropollutants in European streams and additional hydrological parameters (stream order, urban discharge fraction) of the investigated sites.

A total of 445 surface water samples were collected during various sampling campaigns between 2016 and 2019. Chemical target screening of 610 compounds by liquid chromatography high-resolution mass spectrometry (LC-HRMS) resulted in 504 detected compounds. The measured environmental concentrations of the detected compounds ranged from 1 ng/L to 74 µg/L (3-cyclohexyl-1,1-dimethylurea). Detection frequencies ranged from one site (0.2 %) to 339 sites (76 %).

More information can be found in Finckh and Carmona et al. (2024) DOI: 10.1016/j.envint.2023.108371. The main objective of this study was to quantify and characterise chemical footprints in European streams.
