- Persistent organic pollutants
Measurement, Analysis -
Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) are highly toxic substances that persist in the environment without readily decomposing, accumulating in organisms over time and posing significant risks to human health and ecosystems. Internationally, 27 substances such as dioxins, PCBs, and DDT have been designated for management and regulation due to their harmful effects.
