The report was prepared as a case study for the UNESCO-IHP International Initiative on Water Quality (IIWQ) UNESCO project: Emerging Pollutants in Wastewater Reuse in Developing Countries. Case Studies on Emerging Pollutants in Water and Wastewater.The dataset contains compound name, species, biota matrix, concentrations and whether compound has been detected in the sample. This dataset presents a compilation of concentrations and effects of pharmaceuticals in the Baltic Sea marine environment based on data collected by all Baltic Sea states via working groups of the Helsinki Commission, HELCOM.Data collected between the years 2003 to 2014, from coastal, open sea and transitional areas, was received from Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Germany, Poland and Sweden. \u2022 4600 individual data posts were included in the complete data set \u2022 167 different pharmaceuticals have been measured and 74 of these were found in at least one of the sampling matrices (water, sediment, biota) \u2022 51 different pharmaceuticals have been detected in water (of 148 measured) \u2022 9 different pharmaceuticals have been detected in sediment samples (of 25 measured) \u2022 35 different pharmaceuticals have been detected in biota samples (of 116 measured) \u2022 Pharmaceuticals from all drug classes were detectedSee HELCOM BSEP 149 report chapter \u201d3.
