Original Abstract

Environmental contamination by residues of pharmaceuticals is widespread world-wide problem. Significant point sources of pollution are wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). Conventional WWTPs are insufficient to treat micropollutants by used technology and they discharged treated wastewater to the recipients where it contaminates surroundings water ecosystem. One of the most discussed group is antibiotic due to their potential for bacterial resistance. In our work, we are focusing on sulfonamides antibiotics which are widely used as human and veterinary antibiotics in the Czech Republic. Six representants from sulfonamides antibiotic (sulfapyridine, sulfadiazine, sulfamethoxazole, sulfathiazole, sulfamerazine and sulfamethazine) were chosen for experiments. Nowadays, they are discussed several possibilities for removal of xenobiotic residues from water matrix. One of them is the utilization of wood-decay fungi potential due to their unspecific oxidative enzymatic system. Especially Trametes Versicolor, as representatives of white root fungi, has shown promising efficiency for degradation of micropollutants. For the experiments, drinking and wastewater from outflow from WWTPs were used. Both were spiked by sulfonamides antibiotics. Due to very complex matrix, it was necessary to optimize cleaning step which was carried out by solid-phase extraction (SPE). Highperformance liquid chromatography (HPLC) coupled to mass spectrometry detector (MS) were used for the identification and quantification of selected analytes.
