Biodegradation of Allethrin by a Novel Fungus <em>Fusarium proliferatum</em> Strain CF2, Isolated from Contaminated Soils

Biodegradation of Allethrin by a Novel Fungus <em>Fusarium proliferatum</em> Strain CF2, Isolated from Contaminated Soils

Continuous use of allethrin has resulted in heavy environmental contamination and has raised public concern about its impact on human health, yet little is known about the kinetics and microbial degradation of this pesticide. This study reported the degradation kinetics in a novel fungal strain, <...
