Evaluation of Analytical Chemical Methods for Detection of Estrogens in the Environment

Abstract
Metoder til kemisk analyse af østrogener i spildevand (incl. slam), overfladevand, og landbrugsrelaterede matricer (gylle/jord) er undersøgt og vurderet for at finde de bedst egnede metoder til monitering af disse stoffer i miljøet. Kravene til især sensitivitet er så høje at tandem massespektrometri koblet til enten væske (LC) eller gas (GC) kromatografi er bedste metoder. Single MS (særligt GC-MS) kan dog også anvendes, der er dog en risiko for at koncentrationerne overestimeres.

The Danish Environmental Protection Agency will, when opportunity offers, publish reports and contributions relating to environmental research and development projects financed via the Danish EPA.

Please note that publication does not signify that the contents of the reports necessarily reflect the views of the Danish EPA.

The reports are, however, published because the Danish EPA finds that the studies represent a valuable contribution to the debate on environmental policy in Denmark.
