Description: Monitoring of xenobiotics refers to the systematic surveillance of the presence and concentration of chemical compounds that are not naturally produced in the environment, known as xenobiotics. These compounds can include pesticides, pharmaceuticals, heavy metals, and other industrial pollutants. Monitoring is carried out through the collection of samples from air, water, soil, and living organisms, followed by chemical analyses to determine the amount and type of xenobiotics present. This process is crucial for assessing environmental quality and public health, as many xenobiotics can be toxic or have adverse effects on ecosystems. Monitoring allows for the identification of pollution sources, evaluation of the effectiveness of environmental regulations, and contributes to scientific research on the impact of these compounds on biodiversity and human health. Furthermore, monitoring of xenobiotics is an essential tool for the sustainable management of natural resources and environmental protection, as it provides data that can guide conservation policies and practices.
