Occurrence and Toxicity of Organic Microcontaminants in Agricultural Perspective: An Overview
Summary
Researchers surveyed the occurrence and toxicity of organic micropollutants in agricultural settings, focusing on compounds such as phthalates and nonylphenols that accumulate in soil and crops. The review highlights how these contaminants enter food systems and pose risks to both ecosystems and human health through farmland exposure.
Organic micro-pollutants (OMPs) are an increasing global concern that contaminate important environmental matrices. The OMPs in agriculture include di-(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate (DEHP), nonylphenol (NP), nonylphenol mono-ethoxylate (NP1EO), and diethoxylates (NP2EO),...
