For organic compounds, organochloride volatile compounds in Tiber and Marta rivers were analyzed by two different clean-up methods (i.e., liquid\u2013liquid extraction and static headspace) followed by gas chromatography\u2013electron capture detector (GC-ECD) analysis. The results show very high concentrations of bromoform (up to 1.82 and 3.2 \u00b5g L\u22121 in Tiber and Marta rivers, respectively), due to the presence of greenhouse crops, and of chloroform and tetrachloroethene, due to the presence of handicrafts installations. For the qualitative and quantitative assessment of the inorganic fraction, it is highlighted the use of a nuclear analytical method, instrumental neutron activation analysis, which allows having more information as possible from the sample without performing any chemical-physical pretreatment. The results have evidenced high levels of mercury (mean value 88.6 \u00b5g g\u22121), antimony (77.7 \u00b5g g\u22121), strontium (12,039 \u00b5g g\u22121) and zinc (103 \u00b5g g\u22121), whereas rare earth elements show levels similar to the literature data. Particular consideration is drawn for arsenic (414 \u00b5g g\u22121): the levels found in this paper (ranging between 1 and 5100 \u00b5g g\u22121) explain the high content of such element (as arsenates) in the aquifer, a big issue in this area.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ijerph18041628","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,2,9]],"date-time":"2021-02-09T23:43:16Z","timestamp":1612914196000},"page":"1628","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["Halogenated Volatile Organic Compounds in Water Samples and Inorganic Elements Levels in Ores for Characterizing a High Anthropogenic Polluted Area in the Northern Latium Region (Italy)"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"18","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3741-4162","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mario Vincenzo","family":"Russo","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Agriculture, Environment and Food Sciences (DiAAA), University of Molise, 86100 Campobasso, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ivan","family":"Notardonato","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Agriculture, Environment and Food Sciences (DiAAA), University of Molise, 86100 Campobasso, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Alberto","family":"Rosada","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"ENEA Cassacia Research Center, 00060 Rome, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Giuseppe","family":"Ianiri","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Agriculture, Environment and Food Sciences (DiAAA), University of Molise, 86100 Campobasso, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4030-7624","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Pasquale","family":"Avino","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Agriculture, Environment and Food Sciences (DiAAA), University of Molise, 86100 Campobasso, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,2,8]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","unstructured":"World Health Organization, WHO (2006).
