Abstract
⺠The POPs inhibited HRP enzyme activity, reduced activity was proportional to concentration. ⺠Detection limits ranged 0.014 for BDE-100 to 0.022 μg lâ1 for PBB-1. ⺠Concentration ranges in μg lâ1; BDE-100 (0.424-25.8) to (0.930-27.1) for PCB-101. ⺠The inhibition mechanism, competitive for PBDEs; non-competitive for biphenyls (PCBs, PBBs). ⺠The leachate contained PCB-28 (0.28 ± 0.03 μg lâ1) and PCB-101 (0.31 ± 0.02 μg lâ1).
