| Popis: | Contamination of the soil environment with pharmaceutical active compounds (PACs) is an emerging issue. An experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects and accumulation of PACs in maize (Zea mays L.). After screening a variety of maize hybrid seeds for tolerance and sensitivity to paracetamol, two maize hybrids, ICI 339 and Syngenta 7720 (PACs tolerant and sensitive, respectively) and were selected for this experiment. Five paracetamol solutions were applied in two splits with 500 ml of water containing 0, 0.31, 0.62, 0.93 and 1.24 g paracetamol l−1. The application of paracetamol significantly (P |
