Contents:
Historical Use of Radioisotopes in Weed Research / Ziming Yue and Te-Ming Tseng -- Sorption and Desorption Studies of Herbicides in the Soil by Batch Equilibrium and Stirred Flow Methods / Kassio Ferreira Mendes, Rodrigo Nogueira de Sousa, Douglas Gomes Viana, Matheus Bortolanza Soares and Adijailton Jose de Souza -- Mobility Studies of Herbicides in the Soil: Soil Thin Layer Chromatography, Leaching Columns and Lysimeters / Vanessa Takeshita, Kassio Ferreira Mendes, Leonardo Vilela Junqueira, Felipe Gimenes Alonso, Nicoli Gomes de Moraes and Valdemar Luiz Tornisielo -- Anaerobic and Aerobic Degradation Studies of Herbicides and Radiorespirometry of Microbial Activity in Soil / Kassio Ferreira Mendes, Kamila Cabral Mielke, Lucas Heringer Barcellos Júnior, Ricardo Alcántara-de la Cruz and Rodrigo Nogueira de Sousa -- Absorption, Translocation and Metabolism Studies of Herbicides in Weeds and Crops / Ricardo Alcántara-de la Cruz, Gabriel da Silva Amaral, Kassio Ferreira Mendes, Antonia M. RojanoDelgado, Rafael De Prado, Maria Fátima das Graças and Fernandes da Silva -- Radiological Protection for the Use of Radiation and Radioisotopes in Agricultural Research / Luca Ciciani and Alessandro Rizzo.
Summary: "Weed control is a global problem in agriculture, there is constant effort both to develop and utilize herbicides. As part of the general widespread concern over the residual effects of chemicals applied to crop plants, the study of herbicide residues in plants and soil, and the detoxification of herbicides, has become essential. Isotopic techniques can be used to identify degradation products and trace the fate of the herbicide. This book provides: Comprehensive information on the analysis of data collected from research using radioisotopes. Discusses use of radioisotopes of weed research focussing on reviewing absorption, translocation, metabolism, bioaccumulation of pesticides"-- Provided by publisher.
