Reactions of bisulfide and polysulfides with alachlor, propachlor, and metolachlor were examined in aqueous solution to investigate the role reduced sulfur species could play in effecting abiotic transformations of chloroacetanilide herbicides. Experiments at 25 degrees C demonstrated that reactions were

PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway plays a key role in the tumorigenesis of many human cancers including prostate cancer. However, inhibitors of this pathway, such as Rad001, have not shown therapeutic efficacy as a single agent. Through a high-throughput screen of 5,000 widely

Alachlor and butachlor are chloracetanilide herbicides that induce olfactory tumors in rats, whereas propachlor does not. The mechanism by which alachlor induces tumors is distinct from many other nasal carcinogens, in that alachlor induces a gradual de-differentiation of the olfactory

Pesticide losses to the environment are unwanted due to possible environmental and health hazards. An experimental wetland is established to study the efficiency with respect to retention of sediments, nutrients and pesticides. Pesticides were applied on an arable soil plot

1. 14C-labelled propachlor, alachlor, butachlor, metolachlor, methoxypropachlor and some of their mercapturic acid pathway metabolites (MAP) were given to rat either by gavage or by perfusion into a renal artery. MAP metabolites were isolated from bile and urine. 2. Rat
