remediates the aquatic environment and reduces C-deltamethrin bioaccumulation in .

Deltamethrin is an insecticide with high toxicity to non-target aquatic organisms. Environment-friendly alternatives to removing insecticides from water bodies, like phytoremediation, require species to uptake and/or dissipate pesticides from water. Our research investigated the ability of plants to absorb and dissipate C-deltamethrin from water, and bioaccumulation in . The variables were four densities of (0, 234, 337, and 468 g dry weight m), in tanks with seven adults of , with three replicates. Dissipation was evaluated at 0, 24, 48, 72, and 96 h after application (HAA). After 96 HAA, the uptake of C-deltamethrin by plants and accumulation in fish were assessed. The increased C-deltamethrin dissipation and reduced bioaccumulation in zebrafish. The DT decreased 3-fold in treatments with 337 and 468 g m of . The plants absorbed 32% of the C-deltamethrin applied, regardless of plant density. The bioaccumulation in fish was 8.21% without and only 1% in treatments with 468 g m of plants. These results suggest phytoremediation using is a possible alternative to removing deltamethrin from water and reducing the accumulation in non-target organisms, reducing the environmental impact of insecticides in aquatic ecosystems.
