Liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (LC/MS) has become an invaluable technique for trace analysis of pollutants in the environment. Persistent organic pollutants (POPs), some of which are toxic, are monitored extensively in various environments. LC/MS for the analysis of POPs has the potential to contribute to the simplification of analytical methods. This article presents a review of the LC/MS methods for the determination of POPs.

Key words: LC/MS, POPs, Environmental analysis
