**3. Results and discussion**

Along with the developments in industrialization, it has made it necessary to determine organo-contaminant at major and minor levels in the settlements where there is a large amount of factories. In this study, The analysis of EN, NAP, ACE, ACY, FLU, PHN, ANT, FLR, PYR, BaA, CRY, BbF, BkF, BaP, DahA, BghiP and IcdP were performed in paddy, sediment and water samples taken during paddy planting and harvesting from the places such as Yeni Karpuzlu Dam, Muhacirkadı Village (Ergene River) and Üyüklütatar Village (Meriç River). These analyses were performed by using GC-MS. The results of the analysis of EN and PAHs in samples were given in **Tables 6**–**8**.

Large scale accumulation or pollution of pesticide chemicals or natural chemicals is a source of concern for our global world. Due to the incorporation of these substances into the condensation and evaporation cycle, our natural life creates constant exposure with rain, snow and fog [26]. Soil pollution is closely related to industrial activities, destruction of municipal and industrial waste or environmental accidents. Soil is a complex and heterogeneous matrix with a porous structure containing inorganic and natural organic components [1, 2].

PAH components, which come out from the chemical production factories and vehicles' exhausts along the Ergene River, constitute a serious source of pollution. In the Ergene Basin is located in petrochemical, rubber, plastic, mineral oil, rust oil, paint, leather and other products. Rubber and plastic materials including PAHs are high-risk materials. For this reason, EN and PAHs analyses of the samples collected from rice cultivated areas in the basin selected as clean region (Yeni Karpuzlu Dam), dirty region (Muhacirkadı Village) and less dirty region (Üyüklütatar Village) were determined. As the molecular weights of PAHs increase, their solubility in water decreases and accumulation in the sediment also increases. When the results obtained are examined, it can be seen that PAHs accumulate in the sediment.

Sampling during the sowing period and harvest period were made classifications as for proximity to the road, and irrigation channel, or proximity to the dam with code of 1B-1 and 11B-1, intermediate zones of 1B-2 and 11B-2, and the more distant area of 1B-3 and 11B-3.

The recoveries for EN and PAHs were ranged from 82.5 to 105%, respectively. The LOD and LOQ for EN and PAHs were found 0.03–63.1 and 0.1–210 μg kg−1, respectively.

The amount of EN, NP, ACE, ACY, FLU, PHN, ANT, FLR, PYR, BaA, CRY, BbF, BkF, BaP and IcdP in sediment samples were found to be 17.5–44.9 mg kg−1, 219–417 μg kg−1, 41.1–64.1 μg kg−1, 176–264 μg kg−1, Nd–70.5 μg kg−1, 66.7– 318 μg kg−1, 20.3–485 μg kg−1, 137–273 μg kg−1, 790–1867 μg kg−1, 113–1549 μg kg−1, Nd–1190 μg kg−1, Nd–1775 μg kg−1g, Nd–1436 μg kg−1, Nd–2478 μg kg−1 and Nd–968 μg kg−1, respectively. The pesticide concentrations of BghiP and DahA in sediment samples were found below the limit of determination.

The amount of EN, NP, ACE, ACY, FLU, PHN, ANT, FLR, PYR, BaA, and CRY in water samples were found to be Nd–11.1 mg L−1, 38.3–105 μg L−1, Nd–10.3 μg L−1, 8.30–14.8 μg L−1, 6.73–10.6 μg L−1, 44.8–104 μg L−1, 18.7–152 μg L−1, 16.2–65.4 μg L−1, 45.0–92.4 μg L−1, 19.4–88.3 μg L−1and Nd–85.4 μg L−1, respectively. The sample chromatograms of EN and PAHs in sediment, water, rice and rice husk are shown in **Figures 8** and **9**. Except for the clean area, EN was determined above the limit of detection in other sampling areas. The amount of EN in the dirty area was determined as ND-11.1 μg L−1. In the Harvest period for the polluted region were found 7.85, 7.99, and 8.64 μg L−1, respectively.

Pesticides strongly absorbed by soil particles are much less likely to evaporate [1, 2, 24]. Since pesticides are more adsorbed in sediment samples, their transition to water decreases. The results were confirmed this. Sodium was

found in higher concentrations than sediment samples because of its high solubility in water. This increases the electrical conductivity and reduces the water quality.

The amount of EN, NP, ACE, ACY, FLU, PHN, ANT, FLR, PYR, BaA, CRY, BbF, BkF and IcdP in rice samples were found to be 17.7–60.1 mg kg−1, 220–514 μg kg−1, 55.0–77.0 μg kg−1, 194–336 μg kg−1, 51.0–294 μg kg−1, 79.3–518 μg kg−1, 39.6– 859 μg kg−1, 125–228 μg kg−1, 798–1349 μg kg−1, 895–1871 μg kg−1, 752–1247 μg kg−1, Nd–1255 μg kg−1, Nd–1403 μg kg−1 and 843–1531 μg kg−1, respectively. The pesticide concentrations of BaP, BghiP, DahA in rice samples were found below the limit of determination. The amount of PAHs in the polluted region was more than twice that of the clean region.

The amount of EN, NAP, ACE, ACY, FLU, PHN, ANT, FLR, PYR, BaA, CRY, BbF, BkF and IcdP in the rice husk samples were found to be 41.6–46.7 mg kg−1, 327–882 μg kg−1, 74.9–265 μg kg−1, 313–444 μg kg−1, 59.1–268 μg kg−1, 145– 259 μg kg−1, 52.1–416 μg kg−1, 145–378 μg kg−1, 779–2576 μg kg−1, 1900–4258 μg kg−1, 1247–2562 μg kg−1, 294–1303 μg kg−1, 537–1722 μg kg−1 and 1426–2343 μg kg−1, respectively.

The amount of PAHs in the rice husk samples was found twice the amount of rice. Except for rice and water samples, PAHs accumulation was determined in sediment and rice husk samples.

If we summarize briefly, the BghiP and DahA pesticides in the sediment samples in Dam Basin, Meriç-Üyüklütatar Village and the Muhacirkadı-Ergene Basin was be bellowed of limit of detection. It was below the limit of detection of BbF, BkF, BaP, BghiP, DahA and IcdP pesticides content in water samples in the Dam Basin, Meriç-Üyüklütatar Village and the Muhacirkadı-Ergene Basin. It was below the limit of detection the BaP, BghiP and DahA pesticides in the rice and rice husk samples in the Dam Basin, Meriç-Üyüklütatar Village and the Muhacirkadı-Ergene Basin.

When the results were examined, it was determined that the amounts of pesticides were higher in the samples taken near the Ergene river, but the amounts in the edible section were less than in the rice husk. Rice husk has shown a very good adsorbent and reduced the transport of EN and PAHs in of food. EN and PAHs levels in samples taken from river, stream, or near the canal were found to be higher than the samples taken from the inner sides.
