Resumen:
Emerging contaminants (ECs) are substances with widely diverse
chemical structures that may pose a risk to the environment and human beings.
The limited scope of water treatment facilities, particularly in low and middle income countries, allows ECs to be continuously introduced to the environment
and become part of the cycle again for potabilization. In this work, we study for the
first time the presence of these compounds in the drinking water of five
Ecuadorian cities
