Abstract
Uptake and distribution of C-14-carbofuran and C-14-HCH were studied i n a cat fish (Heteropnenstes fossilis). It was observed that C-14-carb ofuran was taken up and remained in spleen while C-14-HCH was absorbed in muscles of the cat fish for a short period only. It may be conclud ed that there is no bioaccumulation of both these insecticides in cat fish at the recommended field application rates. Copyright (C) 1996 El sevier Science Ltd
