| description | The indiscriminate use of pesticides in agricultural practice in recent years has
generated various environmental problems, since these compounds tend to bioaccumulate
through trophic chains presenting considerable levels of toxicity and conditioning potential
risks in ecosystems and public health. In the present work, the ability of a bacterial consortium
to degrade carbofuran, malathion and 2,4-D was evaluated. The bacteria were isolated from
plots with application of pesticides located in Los Mochis, Sinaloa, Mexico. The bacterial
consortium degraded carbofuran (34.99%), malathion (46.68%) and 2,4-D (48.42%) in soil
samples contaminated with each of the pesticides, the bacterial consortium degraded in a
greater proportion the 2,4-D. |
