Tetracyclines and tetracycline degradation products and epimers end up in the environment. In order to predict the persistence of the potential dominating species of the chlortetracyclines in the environment, the chemical stability of chlortetracycline (CTC) and four major CTC degradation products and epimers (iso-CTC, 4-epi-CTC, anhydro-CTC, and 4-epi-anhydro-CTC) was studied in milliQ water and soil interstitial water (SIW) under environmentally relevant conditions (oxygen, light, pH (3-9), and temperature (6degreesC and 20degreesC)). The chemical stability of the compounds was evaluated by following the decrease in amount of parent compound over time. In order to compare the results obtained under the varying conditions, apparent pseudo-first-order rate constants (k(obs)) for the disappearance of the parent compound and corresponding apparent half-lives were calculated. A statistical evaluation of the data showed that the chemical stability of the chlortetracyclines was generally dependent on photolysis, temperature, and matrix. The presence or absence of oxygen did not influence on the chemical stability. The presence of calcium and magnesium ions in SIW is believed to account for the significant differences in half-lives between milliQ water and SIW, although numerous of other factors are believed to influence as well. Generally, the five compounds were more persistent at pH 3-4 than at pH above 5. (C) 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
