Transformation of EDCs/PPCPs and Resulting Toxicity Following Drinking Water Disinfection

This project used novel concepts in computational chemistry and toxicology to predict the likely transformation products (TP) of relevant EDCs/PPCPs with a range of disinfection and oxidation options (such as chlorine, chlorine dioxide, and chloramines) commonly used in the production of drinking water, and then applied comprehensive in vitro toxicity testing to determine their likely toxicity profile.
