![عکس صفحه اول مقاله: Screening of short- and medium-chain chlorinated paraffins in selected riverine sediments and sludge from the Czech Republic Screening of short- and medium-chain chlorinated paraffins in selected riverine sediments and sludge from the Czech Republic](/preview/png/4427956.png)
Wide distribution of chlorinated paraffins in the environment has already been demonstrated in several studies; however, information about their levels in the Central Europe is still very limited. First study focused on the SCCP contamination of the Czech aquatic environment have been performed recently, and its results motivated the authors to analyze sediments from a wide set of the Czech rivers in order to obtain more detailed information. Thirty-six sediment samples from eleven rivers and five drainage vents neighboring the chemical factories were analyzed; special attention was paid to the industrial areas. For the first time in the Czech Republic, medium-chain in addition to short-chain chlorinated paraffins were analyzed using GC-ECNI-MS. Chlorinated paraffins were detected in sediment samples on the concentration levels up to 347 ng g−1 for short-chain chlorinated paraffins, and 5575 ng g−1 for medium-chain chlorinated paraffins. Average chlorination degree of SCCPs was 65%.
