The accumulation and elimination of diflubenzuron by fish

Bulletin of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology

Abstract

In summary, diflubenzuron is accumulated from water into fish tissues at levels up to 80 fold within 24 hr when fish are exposed to concentrations of 10 ppb. Within the concentration range of 1-10 ppb, the amount accumulated in a 24 hr exposure is proportional to concentration. After 24 to 48 hr exposure fish degrade and eliminate diflubenzuron and the excretory products are neither the parent compound nor p-chlorophenylurea. The amount of diflubenzuron remaining in fish tissues with time is dependent on the reduction of residue concentration in water; however, the potential for degradation and elimination is very great.
