Original Abstract

This study deals with the presence of selected pesticides from the group of organophosphates (chlorpyrifos, diazinon, parathion, dimethoate, phosmet) and carbamates (carbofuran, aldicarb, methiocarb, pirimicarb, and propamocarb) in waste water from the Brno agglomeration. Inflow and outflow water was sampled during two weeks, samples were treated by SPE and obtained concentrates were analyzed by GC with ECD detection and by GCxGC-TOF MS. The highest levels were found for methiocarb (tens of ng/L), other targeted compounds were present at levels of tenths of ng/L. The removal efficiency during waste water treatment was also assessed. The best value was found for chlorpyrifos (70 % decrease), on the other hand levels of methiocarb and propamocarb were higher in effluent than in influent.
