- Abstract
The article focuses on the study that seeks to investigate the persistence and degradation of 14C-trifluralin in a soil under outdoor conditions. It also studied the uptake of the herbicide from the treated soil by carrots. The study also identified several degradation products of trifluralin in the soil and carrots and the nature of the nonextractable residues was also determined. The study found out that 1.3 percent of initially applied radioactivity in the soil was seen in the carrot pulps. The carrot pulps contained methanol extracts with 0.010 parts per million and 0.004 parts per million for TR-1 and TR-2 respectively.
