Fate and carryover properties of Temik aldicarb pesticide [2-methyl-2-(methylthio)propionaldehyde O-(methylcarbamoyl)oxime] in soil

Abstract: The fate of S-methyl-14C Temik aldicarb pesticide in soil was studied under field conditions over two growing seasons. Aldicarb applied at the rate of 3.4 kg/ha in-furrow resulted in I4C-residues of 13.10 ± 0.24 ppm in soil planted to potatoes and 15.36 ± 2.40 ppm in fallow ground. Total 14C-aldicarb equivalents declined to 0.07 ± 0.03 ppm in the cultivated soil and 0.05 ± 0.02 ppm in the fallow ground at 90 days after application. Maximum dissipation rates were associated with heavy rainfalls at various times… Show more

“…Poor nematode control caused by an insufficient dispersion of aldicarb in the soil cannot be improved sufficiently by manipulation of the water supply. Andrawes et al (1971) have shown that on sandy loam rainfall of 3 cm or more at various times after application of aldicarb was associated with a considerable reduction in the total of labelled toxic residues of 14C aldicarb in the soil. The main constituents of this total were sulfoxide and sulfone for at least two months.…”

“…13 Their respective hydrolysis products, oximes and subsequent products, are much less toxic. 1 Assuming the degradation of the non-detected compound, the toxicity was reduced, representing an advantage of these systems. …”

“…It inhibits the action of acetylcholinesterase (AChE), which is an essential enzyme of a common metabolic pathway shared by insects and mammalians. 1 The high mobility of aldicarb and its residues (aldicarb sulfoxide and aldicarb sulfone) is due to their low sorption coefficients. In thin soil layer or under specific conditions (high water table, sandy soils, low pH, low temperature, high rainfall, irrigation practices etc.)…”

“…Tais estudos revelaram que o aldicarbe é oxidado a sulfóxido e sulfona de aldicarbe, compostos tão tóxicos quanto o aldicarbe. Simultaneamente, ocorre a degradação do aldicarbe e seus produtos de oxidação, formando compostos não-carbamatos (oximas e nitrilas), que, por sua vez, são pouco tóxicos (Bull et al, 1970;Andrawes et al, 1971;Lightfoot et al, 1987). Estudos sobre a meia-vida de degradação do aldicarbe em solos mostraram uma considerável variação nos resultados, com valores de meiavida de 10 dias a 36 meses, de acordo com a classe de solo, profundidade, umidade, temperatura e pH Jones, 1987;Lightfoot et al, 1987;Barbosa & Rigitano, 1994).…”
