Extension of an extraction method for the determination of 305 organic compounds in clay-loam soil to soils of different characteristics.

ABSTRACT: Soil is one of the environmental compartments most affected by pollution. From this medium, the organic compounds can be emitted to the groundwater, the atmosphere, or the biota. Thus, having adequate methods of analysis of organic pollutants in this matrix is essential. However, the soil is a very complex matrix whose organic and inorganic components can determine the degree to which they are retained. Therefore, the methods must account for the various soil characteristics. In this study, the performance of an extraction method that had been already validated in clay loam soils for more than 300 organic compounds of very different nature including pesticides, PhACs, ARs, and POPs has been evaluated in four additional representative soil types of the agricultural land of the Canary archip
