Description

Sorption and Binding of Chloroorganic Xenobiotics to Environmentally Relevant Organic Solid Phases (Xeno-Sorb)
(Xeno-Sorb)

This research project is supported by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG). In this project, the sorption and desorption of chloroorganic substances on different sorbents (humic substances, algae) will be investigated. The consequences of sorption processes on the toxicity of xenobiotics will be determined by toxicity tests using Daphnia magna, luminescence bacteria, or garden cress as test organisms. To gain information about the bonding capacity of the different humic substances fractions, 14C labeled pollutants will be quantified after size-exclusion chromatography.
