Since their first introduction in the mid 1950s, man-made s-triazine herbicides such as
atrazine have extensively been used in agriculture to control broadleaf weed growth in …

Atrazine residues can pose serious threats to soil ecology and human health. Currently, the
underlying relationship between soil microbial communities and the degradation genes …

Substantial application of the herbicide atrazine in agriculture leads to persistent
contamination, which may damage the succeeding crops and pose potential threats to soil …

The intensive and long-term use of atrazine (ATZ) has led to the contamination of
agricultural soils and non-target organisms, posing a series of threats to human health …

The synthetic s-triazines are abundant, nitrogen-rich, heteroaromatic compounds used in a
multitude of applications including, herbicides, plastics and polymers, and explosives. Their …

Atrazine is one of the most used herbicides, posing non-neglectable threats to ecosystem
and human health. This work studied the performance and mechanisms of surface-modified …

Atrazine is a widely used herbicide with great environmental concern due to its high
potential to contaminate soil and waters. An atrazine-degrading bacterial strain HB-6 was …

The effectiveness of vegetative buffer strips (VBS) for reducing herbicide transport has not
been well documented for runoff prone soils. A multi‐year plot‐scale study was conducted …

Molecular tools in microbial community analysis give access to information on catabolic
potential and diversity of microbes. Applied in bioremediation, they could provide a new …

The s-triazine herbicide atrazine was rapidly mineralized (ie, about 60% of 14C-ring-
labelled atrazine released as 14CO2 within 21 days) by an agricultural soil from the Nile …
