Chiral pesticides frequently undergo enantioselective degradation in soils. Prior studies to characterize chiral signatures have focused on treated agricultural soils, rather than background (untreated) and tracking the atmosphere for source apportionment purposes. In this study, we investigated 65 soils collected from different locations across world. The were taken ecosystems (e.g., grasslands, forests), enantiomeric fractions (EFs) of chlordanes, α-hexachlorocyclohexane (α-HCH), o,p'-DDT...

Organochlorine pesticide (OCP) residues in agricultural soils are of concern due to the uptake these compounds by crops, accumulation foodchain, and reemission from atmosphere. Although it has been about three decades since DDT was banned for uses Canada, persist some areas. Emission atmosphere a historically treated field southern Ontario determined fall 2004 spring 2005. The ΣDDTs concentration high organic matter (71%) soil 19 ± 4 μg g-1 dry weight. Concentration gradients air were...
As the uses of polybrominated diphenyl ethers (BDEs) are being phased out in many countries, soils could become a secondary emission source to atmosphere. It is also anticipated that demand for alternative brominated flame retardants (BFRs) will grow, but little known about their environmental fate soils. In this study, volatility and degradation BFRs organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) soil was investigated. A low organic carbon (5.6%) urban spiked with suite OCPs, followed by incubation under...
Elimination of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) under national and international controls reduces "primary" emissions, but "secondary" emissions continue from residues deposited in soil, water, ice vegetation during former years high usage. Secondary sources are expected to dominate the future, when POPs transport accumulation will be controlled by air–surface exchange biogeochemical cycle carbon. Climate change is likely affect mobilization through, e.g., increased temperature, loss...
Thermal papers are a significant source of exposure to bisphenol A (BPA) and other phenolic compounds (PCs), absorbed through the skin via dermal contact.
Abstract Concentrations of current‐use pesticides (CUPs) in water, zooplankton, precipitation, and air samples as well stereoisomer fractions (SF; herbicidally active/total stereoisomers) metolachlor were determined water collected from 10 remote inland lakes Ontario, Canada, between 2003 2005. The most frequently detected chemicals lake α‐endosulfan, atrazine, metolachlor, chlorpyrifos, chlorothalonil, trifluralin, α‐endosulfan chlorpyrifos the zooplankton. Air concentrations these CUPs...
