Abstract:Dichloroacetamide safeners are common ingredients in
commercial
herbicide formulations. We previously investigated the environmental
fate of dichloroacetamides via photolysis and hydrolysis, but other
potentially important, environmentally relevant fate processes remain
uncharacterized and may yield products of concern. Here, we examined
microbial biotransformation of two dichloroacetamide safeners, benoxacor
and dichlormid, to identify products and elucidate pathways. Using
aerobic microcosms inoculated with … 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.
