Ametryn removal by Metarhizium brunneum: Biodegradation pathway proposal and metabolic background revealed [PDF]

open access: yesChemosphere, 2018
Ametryn is a representative of a class of s-triazine herbicides absorbed by plant roots and leaves and characterized as a photosynthesis inhibitor. It is still in use in some countries in the farming of pineapples, soybean, corn, cotton, sugar cane or bananas; however, due to the adverse effects of s-triazine herbicides on living organisms use of these

Determination of ametryn in sugarcane and ametryn–atrazine herbicide formulations using spectrophotometric method

Environmental Monitoring and Assessment, 2011
A sensitive spectrophotometric method has been developed for determination of ametryn in agricultural samples. The proposed method was based on reaction with pyridine and further coupling with sulfanilic acid to form a colored product. The absorbance was measured at 400 nm with a molar absorptivity of 2.1 x 10(5) L mol(-1) cm(-1).

Proteomic analysis of ametryn toxicity in zebrafish embryos

Environmental Toxicology, 2018
AbstractAmetrym (AMT) is the most widely used herbicide and frequently detected in the aquatic environment. AMT also represent a potential health risk to aquatic organisms and animals, including humans. However, little data are available on their toxicity to zebrafish (Danio rerio). The aim of the present study was to evaluate the toxicological effects

Ametryn degradation by aqueous chlorine: Kinetics and reaction influences

Journal of Hazardous Materials, 2009
The chemical oxidation of the herbicide ametryn was investigated by aqueous chlorination between pH 4 and 10 at a temperature of 25 degrees C. Ametryn was found to react very rapidly with aqueous chlorine. The reaction kinetics can be well described by a second-order kinetic model. The apparent second-order rate constants are greater than 5 x 10(2)M(-1)

Toxicological evaluation of ametryn effects in Wistar rats

Experimental and Toxicologic Pathology, 2015
São Paulo state, Brazil, is one of the main areas of sugar cane planting in the world. Extensive use of ametryn, a triazine herbicide, in sugar cane agriculture and the properties of this herbicide suggest it could be present in the environment as a potential contaminant of soil, surface water, groundwater, and river sediment.

Adsorption of Ametryne and Diuron by Soils

Weed Science, 1970
The adsorption of 2-(ethylamino)-4-(isopropylamino)-6-(methylthio)-s-triazine (ametryne) and 3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-1,1-dimethylurea (diuron) varied greatly among 34 Puerto Rican soils was studied using the agitated slurry technique. Adsorption was expressed as a distribution coefficient (Kd), which is the ratio of the amount of herbicide adsorbed to ...
