Glyphosate and AMPA passive sampling in freshwater using a microporous polyethylene diffusion sampler

Résumé

Glyphosate (PMG) is one of the most widely used herbicides with a reported 8.6 million tons applied globally in 2016. Due to widespread use and limited understanding of long-term environmental impacts, it is expected that future monitoring requirements for PMG and its primary metabolite aminomethyl phosphonic acid (AMPA) in aquatic environments will increase, along with the need for low cost monitoring and risk assessment strategies. The aim of this study was to investigate a microporous polyethylene tube (MPT; 2-mm thickness, 17.6 cm2 surface area, 35% porosity, 2.5 μm pore size) as a diffusive layer for the passive sampling of PMG and AMPA. Levels of PMG and AMPA sorbed to MPT were low ($K_{mw}$ close to 1 mL $g^{−1}$), validating MPT as a diffusive layer. Uptake experiments were conducted first under controlled laboratory conditions (pH = 6.8, 6 days), followed by an in situ freshwater lake system deployment (pH = 7.3, 11 days). PMG and AMPA accumulated linearly (slope relative standard deviation < 6%) under laboratory conditions with sampling rates ($R_s$) of 18 and 25 mL d$^{−1}$, respectively. PMG in situ $R_s$ was 28 mL $d^{-1}$, and was not different from the one found in the laboratory. AMPA was below the limit of quantification (LOQ, 1 ng mL$^{−1}$) in grab water samples, but was detected (>LOQ) in all passive samplers. Results illustrate the gain in sensitivity provided by the passive sampling technique, and the applicability of the device developed for the passive sampling of PMG and AMPA.
