Aboul-Enein Copyright 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 1 Introduction At present, about 60 000 organic substances are used by human beings, and presumably some of these compounds are toxic and are contaminating our environment.
Mostly, chiral pollutants contaminate water resources, sediments and soils. However, these pollutants have also been reported in the atmosphere, and in animal and plant bodies [5, 6]. The percentage contamination of air is very low in comparison to that of water, sediments and soils [5]. Recently, Hegeman and Laane [7] reviewed the distribution of chiral pollutants in the environment. Briefly, chiral pollutants enter into the food chain and are transported into vegetables, fruit and other edible foodstuffs, and finally into the human body.
