Once in the animal body, organic insecticides are subject to metabolism by a variety of
enzymes. Depending on their chemical structure, the compounds may be hydrolyzed …

Many insecticides are inactive on their target sites in the form that is sold and applied,
needing first to be bioactivated. This proinsecticide strategy has often been achieved by …

There are a number of factors which can contribute to herbicide selectivity, including soil
placement, rates of absorption and subsequent translocation, localization (both within the …

Organic compounds that do not belong in the category of fat, carbohydrate, protein, vitamin,
steroid, or mineral are considered to be foreign to the body. Such foreign compounds are …

Aerobic and anaerobic degradation rates for aldicarb were measured in soil samples
collected at different depths from a citrus grove near Davenport, Florida, together with the …

Higher plants metabolize foreign compounds by a number of mechanisms, including
oxidation, hydrolysis, conjugation, and (rarely) re-duction [l, 2, 3, 41. We will discuss …
