  Ferreiro, Borja; Andrade-Garda, José Manuel; López-Mahía, P.; Muniategui, Soledad; Vázquez, Cristina; Pérez, Andrés; Rey, María; Vales Fernández, Carlos (Elsevier, 2021-07-28)

  [Abstract] Quality control of natural gas frequently relies on off-line slow standardized chromatographic techniques. Previous implementations of new measurement approaches focused of synthetic mixtures without extensive ...

• Monitorization of polyamide microplastics weathering using attenuated total reflectance and microreflectance infrared spectrometry 

  Fernández-González, V.; Andrade-Garda, José Manuel; Ferreiro, Borja; López-Mahía, P.; Muniategui, Soledad (Elsevier, 2021-07-10)

  [Abstract] The EU goal to reduce marine plastic litter by ca. 30% by 2020 stressed the need to deploy analytical methods to ascertain the polymeric nature of a residue. Furthermore, as plastics age under natural conditions ...

• Development and Validation of a Multi-Pollutant Method for the Analysis of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons, Synthetic Musk Compounds and Plasticizers in Atmospheric Particulate Matter (PM₂.₅) 

  Sánchez-Piñero, Joel; Moreda-Piñeiro, Jorge; Moscoso Pérez, Carmen María; Fernández-González, V.; Prada-Rodríguez, Darío; López-Mahía, P. (Elsevier, 2021-07-18)

  [Abstract] Exposure to atmospheric particulate matter (PM) associated pollutants is a global concern due to the risk posed in human health after inhalation. In this study, a simple and sensitive multi-residue method is ...

• A Synthetic Quality Index to Evaluate the Functional Stability of Soil Microbial Communities After Perturbations 

  Picariello, Enrica; Baldantoni, Daniela; Muniategui, Soledad; Concha-Graña, Estefanía; De Nicola, Flavia (Elsevier, 2021-05-28)

  [Abstract] Soil stability includes both resistance, the ability to withstand a perturbation or stress, and resilience, the ability to recover to pre perturbation levels. The functional stability of soil microbial communities ...
