Field efficacy and availability, movement, and persistence of ICIA-0051 herbicide in soils
… broadleaf weed control (75% or worse). Soil mobility studies using soil thin-layer chromatography and soil leaching columns indicated that the movement of ICIA-0051 was highly negatively correlated with the organic/humic matter fraction. Although the mobility patterns were similar, …

Fate and behaviour of metformin and its transformation product guanylurea in soil-water systems
… understanding the fate of MET and GUA in the soil environment is crucial to assessing their risk to the wider ecosystems. Forced degradation studies of MET and GUA indicated that combined hydrolysis and photolysis contributed to <30% degradation at neutral pH. Hydrolysis of MET was <16% for …
