Chemicals are part of our daily lives. Human activity emits a large amount of chemicals into the environment and the result is continuous exposure to the complex chemical mixtures that affect ecosystems and humans. Water from rivers and lakes or groundwater is often contaminated by these chemicals, which we are exposed to through drinking water. Current scientific knowledge will be summarized in this conference.
