  The dissipation of deltamethrin in silt clay under subtropical climate conditions was studied.14C- Deltamethrin labeled at gem–dimethyl groups of cyclopropane ring was used alone in one sets of columns and in presence of chloropyrifos in the other sets and kept under field conditions for eleven months. Radioactivity was concentrated in the upper zone of the columns 0-10 cm. The total dissipation of the insecticide amounted to 31%; 52% of the applied dose in silt clay soil in absence and presence of chlorpyrifos, respectively. The soil binding capacity increased with time whereby the extractable 14C-residues simultaneously decreased. The nature of methanolic extract of soils was determined by chromatographic analysis. Deltamethrin was the main degradation product of the extractable residues in addition to 3-phenoxybenzaldehyde, 3-phenoxybenzoic acid and 3-phenoxybenzyl alcohol... Read More»
