Sorption and Desorption of Diuron, Hexazinone and Mix (Diuron + Hexazinone) in Soils With Different Attributes [PDF]
ABSTRACT: In Brazil, sugarcane is grown in large areas. Weed control in sugarcane fields is done by chemical method, since it is more efficient and less expensive. In this method, herbicides that persist in the environment for long periods are used, among which there are hexazinone and diuron, which are applied in mixtures marketed by the industry ...

Potential effects of rainwater-borne H2O2 on competitive degradation of herbicides and in the presence of humic acid [PDF]
In a previous piece of work, we reported some preliminary experimental results showing that hydrogen peroxide at a concentration range frequently encountered in rainwater could lead to degradation of three common herbicides (diuron, butachlor and ...

The “Pesticide Chip”: Chemical Legacies and Agrarian Futures in Costa Rica
Abstract For decades, agro‐industrial capital has adopted cascading chemical and biotechnical interventions, or fixes, to secure accumulation through the cultivation of monocrops. We develop a framework that centres on how monocrop‐induced susceptibility to pests and pathogens—and the patchwork of fixes to address these—produces uneven chemical ...

This study reveals a hidden chemical weapon among calcareous‐shelled sessile organisms in the intertidal zone: the barnacle Balanus albicostatus releases a synergistic blend of palmitic acid and 1‐palmitoyl‐sn‐glycero‐3‐phosphocholine as the allelochemical with the inhibitory activity against attachment of the mussel Vignadula atrata, which may mediate

Hierarchical Self‐Assembled Nanoparticles for Efficient and Eco‐Friendly Herbicide Delivery
Hierarchical host–guest and electrostatic self‐assembly of Diuron/SBE‐β‐CD@CSH for enhanced herbicide efficacy and environmentally safe delivery. ABSTRACT Herbicides are indispensable for safeguarding global crop production, yet their effectiveness is often undermined by extensive environmental losses during application.

Evaluation of Several Commercial Algicides for Control of Odor-producing Cyanobacteria [PDF]
The production of certain odorous metabolites is an undesirable attribute of cyanobacteria (blue-green algae) growth in aquaculture ponds [e.g., channel catfish(Ictalurus punctatus)] and in drinking water reservoirs.

A miniature bioassay for testing the acute phytotoxicity of photosystem II herbicides on seagrass [PDF]
© 2015 Wilkinson et al. Photosystem II (PSII) herbicides have been detected in nearshore tropical waters such as those of the Great Barrier Reef and may add to the pressure posed by runoff containing sediments and nutrients to threatened seagrass ...
