Reduction of the carbamate pesticides oxamyl and methomyl by dissolved Fe2 and Cu1
Article Abstract:
The abiotic degradation of carbamate pesticides oxamyl and methomyl is studied in relation to the presence of hydroquinone, cysteine, bisulfide, Fe2, Zn2, and Cu2. Chemical analysis of the products resulting from reactions between the pesticides and reducing agents is graphed over time, along with a map for the proposed carbamate reduction by Fe2.
