A simple, rapid, and quantitative bioassay method was compared to a gas chromotography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) procedure for the analysis of ametryn in surface and groundwater. This method was based on the activity of ametryn in inhibiting the growth of the primary root and shoot of germinating lettuce, Lactuca sativa L. seed. The procedure was sensitive to 0.01 ug/l and was applicable from this concentration up to 0.6 ug/l. Initial surface sterilization of the seed selection of pregerminated seed of certain root lengths, and special equipment are not necessary. So, we concluded that the sensitivity of the bioassay method is compatible with the chromatographic method (GC-MS). However, the study of the correlation between methods suggests that the... |

The beneficial effects of herbicides are sometimes mitigated by their persistence in the environment. Water may be contaminated with herbicides from aerial spraying, runoff from land treated with herbicides, and direct introduction of herbicides into water to control aquatic weeds. The availability of a monitoring system for herbicides, particularly in flowing wates such as irrigation canals is essential so that damage to the environment and crop plants through the use of contaminated water can ve avoided. Therefore, a simple and rapid quantitative method is presented for the screening and determination of small amounts of ametryne in aqueous solution. This method is based on the activity of the ametryne in inhibition the growth of the primary root and... |
