In most cases, enantiomers of chiral compounds behave differently in biochemical
processes. Therefore, the effects and the environmental fate of the enantiomers of chiral …

Chiral herbicides are often used in agriculture as racemic mixtures, although studies have
shown that the fate and toxicity of herbicide enantiomers to target and non-target plants can …

Chiral pesticides are often degraded enantio-/stereoselectively in soils. Degradation is
typically studied with one or a small number of soils so that it is not possible to extrapolate …

Mineral fertilizers, organic amendments, and pesticides are inputs commonly used in
conventional farming practices. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of single or …

Many pesticides are chiral and consist of two or more enantiomers/stereoisomers, which
may differ in biological activity, toxicity, effects on nontarget organisms, and environmental …

Prothioconazole is a widely used chiral triazole fungicide. In this work, the enantioselective
degradation and transformation of prothioconazole and its chiral metabolite prothioconazole …

Paclobutrazol is a triazole plant growth regulator with a wide range of applications in crop
and fruit tree production. Paclobutrazol is used as a racemic mixture in agriculture. However …

Fenbuconazole is a widely used systemic agricultural fungicide of the triazole class with one
chiral center. In the present study, the enantioselective degradation of fenbuconazole and its …

Mecoprop is a common pollutant in effluent-, storm-and groundwater as well as in leachates
from derelict dumpsites. Thus, bioremediation approaches may be considered. We …

Improving the existing knowledge on the enantioselectivity of processes affecting chiral
pesticide enantiomers in the environment is necessary to maximize the efficacy and …
