Abstract

The problems of environmental pollution with the persistent organic compounds are of great importance both on national and international levels. Many of the persistent organic pollutants (POPs) are toxic, and this is why their chemistry and toxicology in different environmental media (aquatic ecosystems, soils, atmosphere, biota, etc.) are under the detailed investigations.
