Abstract:

Analysing organic compound-contaminated samples is a critical component of environmental monitoring. While pesticides are beneficial to crops, they have a negative impact on the environment that must be considered when using them. Pesticide overuse may result in the extinction of biodiversity. Pollution is also caused by human activities such as polycyclic aromatic compounds (PAH) and aromatic (semi)volatiles. The term "semi-volatile" refers to a group of pollutants with a wide range of chemical and structural characteristics. The analytes of interest in this investigation were PAH, pesticide, TPH, and selected aromatic volatiles. Because of the complexity of environmental samples, isolating target organic compounds from their matrices is a significant challenge.
