Description

General description

Carbofuran is an anticholinesterase carbamate, which is commonly used as a pesticide. Its literature data on toxicity have been reviewed. The effect from exposure to carbofuran has been investigated on acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity in the brain and muscle of common carp (Cyprinus carpio). Degradation studies using ozone, UV radiation and advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) and by photocatalytic degradation have been investigated. Ultra high performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC) method to determine the carbofuran in water samples have been developed with satisfactory results.
