Remediation of acetochlor-contaminated maize field soil using Serratia odorifera AC-1 fertilizer: effects on soil microbial communities [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology
Acetochlor is a chloroacetamide herbicide that is widely applied in corn fields. Nevertheless, the long-term usage of acetochlor in the soil leads to residues, which severely affect the germination of corn seeds and the growth of seedlings, and even ...

Possible Use in Soil Bioremediation of the Bacterial Strain Bacillus Sphaericus NM-1 Capable of Simultaneously Degrading Promethrin and Acetochlor [PDF]

Microorganisms
Prometryn and acetochlor are herbicides used to control weeds in farmlands and other areas. They enter the soil through direct application, residual accumulation in crops, and atmospheric deposition. The pollution of their residues in the environment has

Exposure to acetochlor impairs swim bladder formation, induces heat shock protein expression, and promotes locomotor activity in zebrafish (Danio rerio) larvae

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2021
Acetochlor is one of the most widely used herbicides in the world, however, there are few data on the sub-lethal effects of acetochlor on early developmental stages of fish. To address this, we measured survival, deformity, swim bladder formation, embryo
