Figure 5. Comparison of the maximum concentration of different pharmaceutically active compounds (PhACs) reported in fresh surface waters from Latin America with the lowest concentrations of each PhAC that induced no effects (NOEC) or sublethal/lethal effects (LOEC, LC50) in laboratory tests with algae, crustaceans, amphibians or fish. W > E: water concentration exceeding at least one NOEC, LOEC, or LC50
