Simple, sensitive and rapid spectrophotometric methods were developed for the determination of residual chlorine (RSC) in drinking water and environmental samples using phenoxazine (PNZ), an anticancer drug, as a chromogen and 4-nitro-2-(trifluoromethyl)aniline (NTA) or 2-chloro-4-(trifluoromethyl)a

✦ Synopsis
Polychlorinated naphthalenes (PCNs) were identified and quantified in water samples collected from the aquifer of the Llobregat river near Barcelona (NE Spain) in order to establish the source and extent of spreading of the contamination. Many of the identified PCNs were well resolved as single peaks on the chromatograms recorded using high resolution gas chromatography combined with electron ionization high resolution mass spectrometry and single-ion monitoring. The profile and pattern of PCNs found in groundwater samples are similar to those of Halowax 1099. The levels of the sum of mono-to octachloronaphthalenes in the water samples ranged from 0.003 µg/L to 72.9 µg/L.

## Abstract Surface water disinfection can lead to the formation of mutagenic/carcinogenic by‐products derived from reactions with naturally occurring inorganic compounds. We investigated the feasibility and potential usefulness of an integrated approach to genotoxicity analysis of drinking water.
Background. The prevalence, in unselected patients with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL), of clonal rearrangements suitable for minimal residual disease (MRD) studies has not been formally investigated. Procedure. This was a prospective, demographic study of the frequency of molecular markers of
Analysis of sub-ppb levels of polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in drinking water by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) fluorescence detection typically requires large water samples and lengthy extraction procedures. The detection itself, although selective, does not give compound
