Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are a group of pharmaceuticals widely used for medical and veterinary purposes. NSAIDs have been found in nanograms and micrograms in soil, wastewater, surface water, groundwater, sediments, snow, Antarctic ice, and drinking water. Despite negligible detectable amounts in the environment, NSAIDs have chronic ecotoxic effects on the biotic components of ecosystems. Biotechnological methods for degradation of NSAIDs by fungi and bacteria are being actively developed. The aim of this work was to review the literature on detection, ecotoxicity, and biodegradation methods of hazardous emerging contaminants from the NSAID group over the past 5-10 years.
