"Some of organochlorine pesticides and their metabolites are suspected as the disruptors of endocrine and impact on the environmental ecology. A total of 536 soil samples including surface soil (0-15 cm in depth) and bottom soil (15-30 cm in depth) collected from different fields in Taiwan were analyzed for understanding of the distribution and degradation of organochlorine pesticides in soil The results showed that 81.3 % of pesticide-positive samples were detected in soil, and the concentrations of residues were ranged from 0.19 to 340 μg/kg, DDE has the highest detection rate of 69.6 %, and the residue concentration ranged from ND to 36.7 μg/kg. The average residues of endosulfan and DDE in soil were 2.42 and 1.37 μg/kg, respectively. Except endosulfan and DDE, the average residue levels of other pesticides in soil were below 1 μg/kg. The metabolites of organochlorine pesticides were the main compounds in the bottom soil The dissipation rates of 50 % (DT_(50)) of pesticides in soil were calculated based on the data investigated in 1973, 1981 and 1994. The DT_(50) of aldrin, dieldrin, DDE, DDT, heptachlor and lindane were 10.6,4.90,18.6,5.74, 4.61 and 4.84 year, respectively." |
