@article{3022, author = "I. Merlin Kamala", abstract = "Dissipation dynamics of carbosulfan was studied in three different type of water samples (acidic, alkaline and neutral pH) following application of carbosulfan @ 5 and 10 µg g–1 levels. The residues progressively declined with time and reached below detectable level (0.01 µg g–1) at 45 days after application in acidic and alkaline pH, but persisted up to 60 days in neutral pH. However, more than 95% of carbosulfan degraded within 30 days after incubation irrespective of pH. The half-lives of carbosulfan in different pH waters varied from 7.18 to 7.51 days for neutral pH, from 5.70 to 6.29 days for acidic pH and from 4.42 to 5.24 days for alkaline pH. Hence, carbosulfan is a comparatively safer insecticide and will not contaminate water sources, especially in alkaline pH water sources.", issn = "23191473", journal = "IJAIR", keywords = "Water;Acidic Ph;Alkaline Ph;Neutral Ph;Carbosulfan Residues;Dissipation;Persistence;Degradation;Half-Life", month = "May", number = "6", pages = "628-632", title = "{D}issipation {D}ynamics of {CARBOSULFAN} 25 {EC} in {W}ater", volume = "7", year = "2019", }
