Fast ultrahigh performance liquid chromatographic method for the simultaneous determination of 25 emerging contaminants in surface water and wastewater samples using superficially porous sub-3 μm particles as an alternative to fully porous sub-2 μm par

► 25 emerging contaminants separated in 10 min with high resolution. ► HPLC column packed with superficially porous particles operated at high flow rate used. ► Hydrophilic-lipophilic-balanced SPE sorbents used for analyte preconcentration. ► Method validated based on linearity, precision, sensitivity, selectivity and accuracy. ► Method tested in the analysis of real wastewater and surface water samples.
