Abstract
Fenoxaprop-ethyl was found to be metabolized by a mixed microbial popu lation isolated from a leachate from a landfill. Fenoxaprop acid and 6 -chloro-2(3H)-benzoxazolone were detected as metabolic products in the culture broths. It was shown that the microbial population could util ize fenoxapropethyl as a source of carbon and nitrogen, but the presen ce of an additional source of carbon increased the metabolism rate.
