Degradation of Linuron and Some Other Herbicides and Fungicides by a Linuron-Inducible Enzyme Obtained from Bacillus sphaericus

Engelhardt, G.
RESUMO
Linuron [3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-1-methoxy-1-methylurea] induces the formation of an enzyme (acylamidase) responsible for the degradation of a large variety of different herbicides and fungicides of the acylanilide and phenylurea type. The former type is degraded at a rate at least 10 times higher than the latter.
