Abstract: | Stem and leaf homogenates from tobacco plants metabolised deltamethrin by oxidative and hydrolytic actions on the insecticide. Although a major portion of deltamethrin remained unchanged, metabolites such as 3-phenoxybenzaldehyde, 3-phenoxybenzoic acid and 3-(2,2-dibromonyl)-2,2-dimethylcyclopropanecarboxylic acid were formed. The data suggest a major portion of the insecticide would remain unchanged when absorbed by tobacco plants. |
