To study the sensitivity of chick pea, bean, lentil, rapeseed, sugarbeet and tomato to soil residual concentration of Idosulfuron-mesosulfurun herbicide, an experiment was carried out under controlled conditions at the College of Agriculture, Ferdowsi University of Mashhad, Iran, in 2010. The studied factors were the 6 mentioned crops, and 7 levels of soil residual concentration of Idosulfuron-...

Of all types of xenobiotics, pesticides such as herbicides play a significant role in soil and water pollution due to their widely usage all over the world. This study addresses the ability of organic amendments to enhance atrazine and metamitron degradation in two herbicide contaminated soils with contrasting textures under laboratory conditions. Soil samples were collected from surface soils ...

Application of organic manure in organic farming and long-term mineralization may lead to residual effects on the succeeding crop. So, residual effects of combined cattle manure and urea fertilizer of previous crop (black cumin) on growth and yield of pea were examined in a randomized complete block design. Treatments included of  cattle manure (CM), urea (U), three ratios of CM+U full dose app...

Introduction: Chlorination has been used as a major disinfectant process for public drinking and swimming pool water in many countries. However, it was concern over the disinfection byproducts (DBPs) by the reaction of chlorine with organic material in water and the effect on human health. The purpose of this study was to determination trihalomethane concentrations in indoor swimming pools wate...
