Abstract
The degradation of methoxychlor (14C‐ring‐labelled) was studied under laboratory conditions in Take and pond sediments (water‐sediment ratio, 10–20:1) incubated under various redox conditions at 22.5 or 10°C. Methoxychlor degraded rapidly in sediments with half‐lives of 4C after 28 days incubation.Keywords
