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

Getenga, Z.M.; Doerfler, U.; Schroll, R. (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 ...
