Pesticide run-off from agricultural land may affect aquatic organisms negatively. In a new doctoral thesis, Maria Sandin has investigated which soil properties that determines how large the pesticide

Organic environmental chemistry (OMK) laboratory develops methods and performs analyses of mainly pesticides (plant protection products, both currently used and banned) in different matrices such as

Known issues in the databases Current methods of measurement Valid since January 2020 Method: SS-EN ISO 10304-1 1st ed. (modified). Instrument: Metrohm 930 Compact IC Flex with Sample changer 858

Closely related analytical methods that also estimate the amount of particles in the water are turbidity and the difference between absorbance on unfiltered and filtered water. Known issues in the

Alkalinity is measured by titration to pH 5.6, pH 5.4 or 4.5 with HCl. The CO 2 formed is continously removed by nitrogen gas flow-through. The endpoint is indicated with a pH electrode. Known issues

Known issues in the databases Presently, the acidity of the water is given as negative alkalinity in our databases. Current method of measurement Acidity is measured by titration to pH 5.6 with NaOH

Absorbance in water The light permeability of water depends on the presence of suspended particles and dissolved substances in the water. In a filtered water sample, it is chiefly the light

I work at the department of aquatic sciences and assessment and the centre for chemical pesticides (CKB) with interpretation of monitoring data for plant protection products.  I also work with the
