Abstract:Methomyl is a highly effective broad-spectrum carbamate pesticide that is widely used in the control of pests and diseases in crops. However, few studies have assessed the degradation of methomyl residues in aquaculture environments. In this study, the effects of pH, temperature, illumination, and aerobic/anaerobic conditions in pond water were analyzed to study the degradation pattern of methomyl. The pesticide residues in all treatments were extracted per solid-phase extraction technique and analyzed using l… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
