The transport and fate of hydrophobic organic contaminants in the environment involve complex phenomena that are influenced by many processes that include sorption by soil components. Sorption behavior of EE2 molecules onto different soil samples was studied and results correlated with the content and type of organic matter present. The highest Κ value, among all soils presented in this study, was obtained for soil fertilized with compost (1.22) which presented the highest organic carbon content. Also the sorption behavior depends greatly on the soil specific organic matter characteristics. A strong positive correlation was observed between aromatic and carboxylic units and ΚOC values. The results also suggested an association of the EE2 aromatic nuclei face to face with the surface and/or another EE2 molecule and also sorbentsorbate interactions due to hydrogen or covalent bonding, likely to occur due to the presence of phenolic function at C-3 and hydroxyl function at C-17 of the EE2 molecules that can react with carboxylic functional groups of soil organic matter. The stronger EE2 sorbs to soil organic matter lower is the leaching into drinking water resources and runoff to rivers and surface water, minimizing its residual toxicity.
The implementation of the Water Framework Directive (2000/60/EC) requires the establishment of monitoring programs. However, conventional procedures for sample preparation prior to chromatographic analysis are rather expensive and time consuming, being the development of cost-effective and easy tool a necessity. The aim of this work was to develop an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) able to determine atrazine in water samples. Matrix effects evaluation showed that the increase of humic acid (HA) concentration leads to flattened calibration curves and to the loss of the sigmoidal shape. However, such interference was overcome, by the presence of an environmental sample buffer, incubated together with the samples. Recoveries from 88.5 to 119.2 % were obtained in the presence of HA concentrations up to 20 mg-1. An analytical range from 0.003 to 1 µgL-1 was obtained, and atrazine was detected in a sewage treatment plant with concentrations ranging from 14 to 52 ngL-1.
A large number of pharmacologically active compounds have been detected in the aquatic environment during the last decade [1] and this gives rise to many concerns [2]. The substances have been disclosed by accident, clever search or elaborate mass spectrometry. Nowadays a broad spectrum of drug parent compounds can be screened for [3], yet the knowledge about the presence of isomers and transformation products (metabolites, conjugates, degradates) is still limited.
