Abstract
Biodegradation of gardoprim, igran (triazine herbicides), dicuran and patoran (phenylureas) by natural microflora of surface water, was characterized by an extended lag period. Biodegradation rate followed a first order kinetics. Triazine herbicides were more amenable to microflora than phenylureas. The half-life time ranged between 6.9 and 18 days for triazines and between 13.9 and 21.6 days in the case of phenylureas.
