Abstract

We developed a method for determining 11 abused drugs in water and sediment.

METH and EPH were the dominant drugs in water and sediment in Beiyunhe River.

Abuse drugs in Beiyunhe River were mainly from hospitals and sewage effluents.

Abused drugs in the water would not impair the aquatic ecosystem biologically.
