Characterization of ammonia remover Bacillus albus (ASSF01) in terms of biofilm-forming ability with application in aquaculture effluent treatment.

Presence of higher concentration of ammonia (> 0.5 mg/L) as well as nitrite (> 0.2 mg/L) in aquaculture environment create difficulties for fish survival.

Low Cost Biomass Derived Biochar Amendment on Persistence and Sorption Behaviour of Flubendiamide in Soil.

Persistence and sorption behaviour of flubendiamide in two different Indian soils as affected by maize stalk biochar was studied. The persistence was more in West Bengal soil (178.6 days) than Sikkim soil (165.

Effect of soil type and organic manure on adsorption-desorption of flubendiamide.

Laboratory study on adsorption-desorption of flubendiamide was conducted in two soil types, varying in their physical and chemical properties, by batch equilibrium method. After 4 h of equilibrium time, adsorption of flubendiamide on soil matrix exhibited moderately low rate of accumulation with 4.52 ± 0.

Influence of microbial community on degradation of flubendiamide in two Indian soils.

Degradation of flubendiamide as affected by microbial population count in two Indian soils (red and alluvial) varying in physicochemical properties was studied under sterile and non-sterile conditions. Recovery of flubendiamide in soil was in the range of 94.7-95.

Dissipation of flubendiamide in/on okra [Abelmoschus esculenta (L.) Moench] fruits.

A field experiment was undertaken at Indian Agricultural Research Institute, New Delhi during kharif (rainy season) in the year 2010 to evaluate the residue persistence of flubendiamide in/on okra fruits following foliar application of Belt 39.35% SC formulation at 24 (standard dose) and 48 (double dose) g a.i.

Flubendiamide transport through packed soil columns.

Flubendiamide insecticide is widely used in Indian subtropical condition to control lepidopteron pests mainly in rice and cotton. The present study reports leaching behaviour of flubendiamide, N(2)-[1,1-dimethyl-2-(methylsulfonyl)ethyl]-3-iodo-N(1)-[2-methyl-4-[1,2,2,2-tetrafluoro-1 (trifluoromethyl)ethyl] phenyl]-1,2-benzene dicarboxamide, in packed soil columns under different rainfall conditions. Flubendiamide did not leach out of the 25 cm long soil columns even after percolating water equivalent to 462.
