“…At the same time, after being degraded by microorganisms, the residual PBZ in the environment can also generate some intermediate products with carcinogenic and teratogenic effect ( Liu et al, 2015 , Liu et al, 2015 , 2016 ; Kishore et al, 2015 ; Wu et al, 2015 ). In addition, due to its slow degradation rate and long half-life, PBZ cannot be eliminated via routine treatment processes, which will lead to the decline of soil fertility and quality ( Ouyang et al, 2020 ; Gonçalves et al, 2009 ; Cregg and Ellison-Smith, 2020 ; Guo et al, 2021 ). Considering the hazards of PBZ, many organizations and countries have set up the maximum residue limits (MRLs) of PBZ.…”
