Coprostanol in Siak River Sediments, E Sumatra, Indonesia

Content Provider SpringerLink
Author Liebezeit, Gerd Wöstmann, Ralf

Abstract To follow faecal pollution steroid compounds have been analysed in 106 sediment samples from the Siak River, E Sumatra, Indonesia. Coprostanol was detected in 40 of these. Contents ranged from 50 to 10,530 ng/g d.w. with a mean of 878 (TOC-normalised: range 7.4–393.0, mean 44.1 μg/g TOC). Total contents and the coprostanol/cholesterol ratio argue for a major contribution from untreated sewage which is also evident from field observations. The distribution along the river indicates the quantitatively dominant source to be the city of Pekanbaru with an estimated population of 1.5 million. Coprostanol contents decrease downstream indicating ongoing degradation either during transport or in the surface sediment. However, additional sources of coprostanol become evident further downstream. On the other hand, the 5β/(5β + 5α)-cholestan-3β-ol ratio versus cholesterol and a ternary plot using C27 sterols suggest that plant sources also contribute to the sedimentary coprostanol due to its formation by bacteria in suboxic/anoxic sediments.

About National Digital Library of India (NDLI)
NDLI logo

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
