Plant uptake of some pharmaceuticals commonly present in sewage sludge compost
2010
The application of sewage sludge compost as a fertilizer can be a source of the contamination of food plants by pharmaceutical products. In this study the uptake of ciprofloxacin, ofloxacin, norfloxacin, sulfadimethoxine and sulfamethoxazole from soil into potato was demonstrated. The concentrations of the studied pharmaceuticals were of considerable magnitude in the plant samples, if compared to their concentrations in soil.
