Abstract
The organic compounds, persistent in the different environmental spheres, have various origins. These compounds’ impact on different ecosystems is highly dependent on their interactions with the surrounding environment. Among the organic contaminants involved in chemical pollution are xenobiotics or phytosanitary compounds, introduced into the environment via anthropogenic activity, mainly agriculture, in a bid to improve crop production yields.
