  • Title: Dissipation and residues of boscalid in strawberries and soils.
    Author: Chen L, Zhang S.
    Journal: Bull Environ Contam Toxicol; 2010 Mar; 84(3):301-4. PubMed ID: 20111950.
    Abstract:
    Field experiments were carried out to investigate the dissipation of boscalid in strawberries and soils and its residual levels in strawberries at two different sites. Boscalid (50% water dispersible granule) was applied at two dosages (349.5 and 525.0 g a.i./ha). Soils and strawberry samples were collected at 0, 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 14, 21 days after application of boscalid. The results showed that boscalid dissipation pattern followed the first order kinetics with the half-lives of 4.9 and 6.4 days in strawberries and 6.1 and 8.0 days in the soils of Jinan and Beijing trail sites, respectively. The boscalid residues in strawberries were below the EU maximum residue level (5 mg/kg) after three days of application. This study suggests that boscalid is acceptable to apply for strawberries under the recommended dosage.
