Title: Study progress on microbial degradation of organophosphates
Abstract: Residual organophosphorous pesticides in environment are degraded or decreased mainly by means of microbial degradation. A great attention are now being paid to the degradation of environmental residual pesticides using the microorganisms or microbial cell-free enzyme. The current knowledge of the organophosphate biodegradation,including the screen for the degrading microbial,the degradation mechanisms,the degradation related genes and enzymes,factors affecting on the biodegradation and the perspective of microbial degradation on organophosphorous pesticides is reviewed in this paper.
