The distribution of six priority phthalic acid esters (PAEs) in vegetable soils and wasteland soils of Shiraz were obtained with gas chromatography-mass spectrometer analysis in 2012. Results showed that total PAEs varied from 0.07 to 2.13 µg g-1 with the median value as 0.47 µg g-1. Di-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate and di-n-butyl phthalate are most abundant species. The agricultural plastic film could elevate the PAEs contents in soils. Principal component analysis indicated the emission from cosmetics and personal care products and plasticizers were important sources for PAEs in vegetable soils in Shiraz.
