Persistence and residual activity of organophosphorus termiticides in soil and prevention against the degradation of chlorpyrifos
1991 - IRG/WP 1518
The persistence and the residual activity of four comercial organophosphorous termiticides, Chlorpyrifos, Fenitrothion, Tetrachlorvinphos, Pyridaphenthion, in soil were studied under laboratory conditions. The persistence and the residual activity of four organophosphorous termiticides in two types of soil decreased with the lapse of time. These termiticides were mostly degraded by microorganisms ...
