Biodegradation of phenylurea herbicide diuron by microorganisms from long-term-treated sugarcane-cultivated soils in Kenya
(Taylor & Francis, 2011)The phenylurea herbicide diuron [N-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-N,N-dimethylurea] is widely used alone or in a broad range of herbicide formulations. Its degradation in sugarcane-cultivated soils which have been impacted by the ... -
Effects of carbon amendment on in situ atrazine degradation and total microbial biomass
(ARPN Journal of Agricultural and Biological Science, 2013)This study elucidates the effects of carbon amendment on metabolic degradation of atrazine (6-chloro-N2-ethyl-N4-isopropyl-1,3,5triazine-2,4-diamine) and total microbial biomass in soil. Degradation of 14C-ring-labelled ... -
Study of atrazine degradation in soil fromKenyan sugarcane-cultivated fields in controlledlaboratory conditions
(2009)A study to compare the extent of atrazine mineralization in soils from Kenyan sugarcane-cultivated fields with and without history of atrazine use was carriedout in the laboratory under controlled conditions. The study was ...
