Zusammenfassung:Techniques that can be employed to detoxify soil contaminated by organophosphate pesticides that have been accidentally spilled are identified. The active pesticide ingredient in such spills can range from 1-5%. Microbial enzymes can lead to rapid and thorough decontamination of the pesticides in the soil. Applications of enzymatic hydrolysis of diazinon in soil are described.
