404 A · ANALYTICAL CHEMISTRY, VOL. 48, NO. 4, APRIL 1976
Chemical contamination of the Great Lakes and evidence of DDT in Lake Michigan illustrate the serious problems presented by organic pesticide pollution in aquatic environments today. This u p - t o - d a t e collection of thirteen papers gathers together scientific evidence on the distribution and stability of organic pesticides in aqueous systems. These studies report the latest and most challenging research o n : occurrence; recovery by l i q u i d - l i q u i d extraction; confirmation by mass spectrometry and N M R techniques; interaction w i t h particulate matter and w i t h natural organic polyelectrolytes; sorption by organic clays; herbicidal residues; photodecomposition of picloram and other pesticides; chemical hydrolysis and oxidation of parathion and paraxon; persistence of carbomate insecticides; and degradation of diazinon chlorinated hydrocarbons. If you are a pesticide chemist, i n dustrial engineer, or ecology expert, you will f i n d this book invaluable. 2 8 0 pages w i t h index. Cloth $10.50 Postpaid in U.S. and plus 4 0 cents elsewhere.
