Predicting Sorption properties of neutral and Ionic Complex Contaminants

In the project "Predicting sorption properties of neutral and ionic complex contaminants” we use  chromatographical methods to determine characteristic molecule parameters for complex compounds, such as pesticides and pharmaceuticals, for the prediction of distribution coefficients in the environment.
