* Scientists, regulators and the public are becoming increasingly concerned about the presence and impacts of emerging contaminants in the environment. These include chemical contaminants such as pharmaceuticals and veterinary medicines and nanoparticles to name but a few* Provides an overview of the sources, inputs, transport, fate and effects of these different classes of contaminants in the environment* Discusses advances in methodologies for understanding the environmental fate and effects of emerging contaminants* Highlights major uncertainties and research needs

Alistair Boxall is Senior Lecturer at the University of York, and Team Leader of the EcoChemistry Team at the Central Science Laboratory. Martin Rose is Principal Scientist, Environment, Food and Health, at the Central Science Laboratory. They are co-organising an international conference on Analysis of Emerging Contaminants in the Environment to be held at CSL in March 07.
