Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Internal medicine
  • Gene

Sara Castiglioni mainly investigates Wastewater, Environmental chemistry, Environmental health, Sewage treatment and Sewage. Her Wastewater research includes elements of Biotechnology and Drug. Sara Castiglioni interconnects Chromatography, Antibiotics, Solid phase extraction and Aquaculture in the investigation of issues within Environmental chemistry.

Her work carried out in the field of Environmental health brings together such families of science as Benzoylecgonine, Substance abuse and Cannabis. The study of Sewage treatment is intertwined with the study of Contamination in a number of ways. Her work deals with themes such as Toxicology, Pollutant and Pollution, which intersect with Contamination.

Her most cited work include:

  • Removal of Pharmaceuticals in Sewage Treatment Plants in Italy (638 citations)
  • Strategic Survey of Therapeutic Drugs in the Rivers Po and Lambro in Northern Italy (524 citations)
  • Effects of a complex mixture of therapeutic drugs at environmental levels on human embryonic cells. (367 citations)

What are the main themes of her work throughout her whole career to date?

Sara Castiglioni spends much of her time researching Wastewater, Environmental health, Environmental chemistry, Sewage treatment and Wastewater based epidemiology. Her Wastewater study results in a more complete grasp of Environmental engineering. Her Environmental health research integrates issues from Drug, Epidemiology, Substance abuse and Cannabis.

Her Environmental chemistry research incorporates elements of Solid phase extraction, Effluent and Surface water. The various areas that Sara Castiglioni examines in her Sewage treatment study include Contamination, Sewage and Water cycle. Her Contamination research incorporates themes from Pollutant and Pollution.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Wastewater (42.18%)
  • Environmental health (29.93%)
  • Environmental chemistry (25.85%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2019-2021)?

  • Environmental health (29.93%)
  • Wastewater (42.18%)
  • Wastewater based epidemiology (15.65%)

In recent papers she was focusing on the following fields of study:

Sara Castiglioni focuses on Environmental health, Wastewater, Wastewater based epidemiology, Illicit drug and Epidemiology. Her work on Exposure assessment as part of general Environmental health research is frequently linked to Consumption, bridging the gap between disciplines. Her research in Wastewater intersects with topics in Veterinary medicine, Pharmacological therapy and Cannabis.

Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Urine and Heroin. In her research on the topic of Epidemiology, Substance use and Population level is strongly related with Alcohol consumption. Her Benzoylecgonine study incorporates themes from Harm reduction, Drug, Tetrahydrocannabinol and Stimulant.

Between 2019 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Wastewater-Based Epidemiology: Global Collaborative to Maximize Contributions in the Fight Against COVID-19. (91 citations)
  • Spatio‐temporal assessment of illicit drug use at large scale: evidence from 7 years of international wastewater monitoring (52 citations)
  • Wastewater-based epidemiology for tracking human exposure to mycotoxins. (12 citations)

In her most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Ecology
  • Internal medicine
  • Gene

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Environmental health, Wastewater based epidemiology, Wastewater, Illicit drug and Cannabis. Her Environmental health study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Mycotoxin and Epidemiology. In most of her Wastewater based epidemiology studies, her work intersects topics such as Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2.

Sara Castiglioni undertakes multidisciplinary studies into Wastewater and Protocol in her work. Sara Castiglioni combines subjects such as Benzoylecgonine, Methamphetamine, MDMA and Stimulant with her study of Illicit drug. Her study in Cannabis is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Urine, Psychoactive substance and Mephedrone.
