The reactions of thiometon and its ethyl analogue, disulfoton, with reduced sulfur species [e.g., bisulfide (HS-), polysulfide (S(n)2-), thiophenolate (PhS-), and thiosulfate (S2O3(2-))] were examined in well-defined aqueous solutions under anoxic conditions. The role of reduced sulfur species was investigated

The linden borer, Saperda vestita Say (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae), is a native insect species that is common throughout north central and northeastern North America. Over the past decade, increasing occurrence of damage associated with the linden borer has been reported on
Technical grade disulfoton (DiSyston) was fed to Beagle dogs (four animals per sex and treatment level) at nominal concentrations of 0, 0.5, 4 and 12 ppm for 1 year. The purpose of this study was to characterize the potential general
