A xenobiotic can be defined as any chemical or other substance that is not normally found in the ecosystems or that is present at concentrations harmful to all biological organisms. This general definition could be applied to anthropogenic and naturally occurring constituents. Organic contaminants can include pesticides, solvents and petroleum products. Inorganic xenobiotics include heavy metals, nonmetals, metalloids, radionuclides and simple soluble salts (Schwab, 2005).
