The aerobic aquatic soil metabolism of esfenvalerate [(2S, alphaS)-alpha-cyano-3-phenoxybenzyl 2-(4-chlorophenyl)-3-methylbutyrate] was examined in two Japanese pond water-sediment systems in relation to the effects of illumination and formulation on degradation profiles. Esfenvalerate was rapidly p...
