Research Paper (postgraduate) from the year 2019 in the subject Agrarian Studies, course: Microbiology, language: English, abstract: Bifenthrin is an active synthetic pyrethroid (SPs) and its studies are less reported. Due to its increased neurotoxicity and possible carcinogenicity, use of bifenthrin is banned or restricted to use in several countries. However, it is extensively used in many developing countries mainly in the agriculture sector and house hold applications. Moreover, pyrethroids are generally considered as environmentally safe due to its spontaneous degradation in Sunlight but bifenthrin is most stable known pyrethroids, withstanding in soil for several months. Thus, the present study aims to explore a bacterial strain to degrade bifenthrin at the lab scale studies.
