- Title
Chemical Residence Time and Hydrological Conditions Influence Treatment of Fipronil in Vegetated Aquatic Mesocosms.

- Abstract
The article offers information on the research conducted on the influence of chemical residence time and hydrological conditions on the treatment of fipronil, a phenyl-pyrazole insecticide in vegetated aquatic mesocosms (lysosomes). It mentions that the research is aimed at investigating two species of aquatic plants including broadleaf cattail and powdery alligator-flag placed in, against a nonvegetated mesocosm in decreasing concentrations and loads of fipronil and its associated metabolites. It informs that vegetated mesocosm under inundation conditions reduced 50 percent of influent fipronil concentrations and 60-70 percents of fipronil loads.
