Effect of the formulation on pendimethalin behaviour in octanol-water system as well as on values of octanol/water partition and bioaccumulation coefficients
Octanol/H(2)O partition and bioaccumulation coeffs. of pendimethalin contained in a corn. pesticide formulation and in an alginate matrix (a control-release hydro gel formulation) were detd. at 5 degrees C and 20 degrees C. Both distd. and natural waters were used. The coeffs. were substantially lower for the alginate matrix than for the com. formulation.
