DISSIPATION AND ACCUMULATION KINETICS OF LINDANE IN SOIL AND EARTHWORM - PHERETIMA PO STHLIMA

R. K. HANS AND M. FAROOQ

Abstract

Kinetics of lindane dissipation in soil and bioaccumulation in earthworm was studied by soil pot exposure method in a controlled environmental chamber. The half life of lindane in soil was found 43 days and the daily uptake by earthworm was 2307 ppb, indicative of an increase in residue build up and positive cumulative toxic effects.
