Electroanalytical Overview: the Measurement of Diuron. [PDF]
ACS Meas Sci AuDiuron, a widely used herbicide, has been banned or heavily restricted in several countries due to its environmental persistence and toxicity to aquatic ecosystems. Its chemical stability allows it to remain in soil and water for extended periods, leading to long-term contamination and potential leaching into groundwater.

Biodegradation of diuron by an endophytic fungus Neurospora intermedia DP8-1 isolated from sugarcane and its potential for remediating diuron-contaminated soils. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 A diuron-degrading endophyte DP8-1 was isolated from sugarcane root grown in diuron-treated soil in the present study. The endophyte was identified as Neurospora intermedia based on the morphological characteristics and sequence analysis.

Thermal- and MnO2-Activated Peroxydisulfate for Diuron Removal from Water
Clean Technologies, 2022 In this work, a peroxydisulfate (PDS)-based advanced oxidation process was used for removing diuron from water. The effect of heat and MnO2 as PDS activators was explored. It was found that diuron degradation obeyed zero-order kinetics in the presence of

Monoclonal anti‐diuron antibodies prevent inhibition of photosynthesis by diuron [PDF]
FEBS Letters, 2002 Two monoclonal anti‐diuron antibodies were generated that bind to diuron with an extremely low equilibrium dissociation constant. The antibodies prevented and restored in vitro and in vivo the diuron‐dependent inhibition of photosynthesis. In isolated thylakoids prepared from spinach leaves (Spinacia oleracea L.) the diuron‐inhibited Hill reaction was ...

Diuron tolerance and potential degradation by pelagic microbiomes in the Great Barrier Reef lagoon [PDF]
PeerJ, 2016 Diuron is a herbicide commonly used in agricultural areas where excess application causes it to leach into rivers, reach sensitive marine environments like the Great Barrier Reef (GBR) lagoon and pose risks to marine life.
