Synthetic musk compounds are artificial organic substances commonly used as fragrant constituents of personal care products as parfums, cosmetics, detergents, in-house cleaning and washing agents. Given their large area of applications and their ability to be perzistent, they leaked into all parts of ecosystem, especially aquatic one. There have been a big focus on studiyng these compounds, their properties and fate in the different parts of ecosystems in the last years. The aim of thesis was carry out the determination of five representatives (habanolide, exaltolide, ambrettolide, musk MC4 and ethylene brassylate) of macrocyclic musk compounds in waste water samples from influent and effluent of three water treatment plants (WWTP Brno-Modřice, WWTP Lednice and WWTP Mikulov). One of the main tasks was to perform a method optimisation for the determination of selected musk compounds in waste water and evaluation and interpretation of the results. Solid phase microextraction (SPME) technique was used for the extraction of analytes, consequently gas chromatography-mass spectrometry was used for analysis of selected analytes. Following evaluation the removal efficiency of musk compounds in the waste water treatment plant was assessed. The thesis provides the first comprehensive information concerning the determination of macrocyclic musk compounds in waste water in the Czech Republic. Macrocyclic musk compounds are more environmentally friendly and have much better properties compared to other groups of synthetic musk compounds. The lower occurrence and concentration of these compounds in personal care products is probably due to their high cost. In the future their increased production is expected, mainly due to the falling prices of basic raw materials. In the literature on this group of synthetic musk compounds there are very few notes and it is therefore appropriate to address this issue in the future.
