Bio-pesticides: Harmful or harmless to ammonia oxidizing microorganisms? The case of a Paecilomyces lilacinus-based nematicide
Rousidou, C.; Papadopoulou, E. S.; Kortsinidou, M.; Giannakou, I. O.; Singh, B. K.; Menkissoglu-Spiroudi, U.; Karpouzas, D. G. (2013)Bio-pesticides are considered as low-risk compounds, a belief mainly based on their natural origin rather than on experimental evidence. Thus there is a need to explore the ecotoxicity of bio-pesticides and mostly their ... -
Development and validation of an HPLC-DAD method for the simultaneous determination of most common rice pesticides in paddy water systems
Tsochatzis, E. D.; Tzimou-Tsitouridou, R.; Menkissoglu-Spiroudi, U.; Karpouzas, D. G.; Papageorgiou, M. (2012)Rice crop is mainly cultivated in large river basins which constitute unique ecosystems and their ecological quality is invaluable. However, the high loads of pesticides used in rice cultivation contribute to the contamination ... -
The dissipation of three fungicides in a biobed organic substrate and their impact on the structure and activity of the microbial community
Marinozzi, M.; Coppola, L.; Monaci, E.; Karpouzas, D. G.; Papadopoulou, E.; Menkissoglu-Spiroudi, U.; Vischetti, C. (2013)Biopurification systems (BPS) have been introduced to minimise the risk for point source contamination of natural water resources by pesticides. Their depuration efficiency relies mostly on the high biodegradation of their ... -
Do Botanical Pesticides Alter the Structure of the Soil Microbial Community?
Spyrou, I. M.; Karpouzas, D. G.; Menkissoglu-Spiroudi, U. (2009)The effects of synthetic pesticides on the soil microbial community have been thoroughly investigated in the past mostly by culture-dependent methods and only few recent studies have used culture-independent approaches for ... -
Effects of nicosulfuron on the abundance and diversity of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi used as indicators of pesticide soil microbial toxicity
Karpouzas, D. G.; Papadopoulou, E.; Ipsilantis, I.; Friedel, I.; Petric, I.; Udikovic-Kolic, N.; Djuric, S.; Kandeler, E.; Menkissoglu-Spiroudi, U.; Martin-Laurent, F. (2014)The key role of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi in maintaining soil fertility and ecosystem functioning and their general sensitivity to pesticides make them good candidate bioindicators in pesticide soil microbial ... -
Extraction Parameters Significantly Influence the Quantity and the Profile of PLFAs Extracted from Soils
Papadopoulou, E. S.; Karpouzas, D. G.; Menkissoglu-Spiroudi, U. (2011)Phospholipid fatty acid (PLFA) analysis is a robust method for characterizing soil microbial communities. We determined the effects of extraction solvent (chloroform vs dichloromethane) and buffer (phosphate vs citrate) ... -
Influence of different organic amendments on the degradation, metabolism, and adsorption of terbuthylazine
Dolaptsoglou, C.; Karpouzas, D. G.; Menkissoglu-Spiroudi, U.; Eleftherohorinos, I.; Voudrias, E. A. (2007)The behavior of the herbicide terbuthulazine (TA) was studied in a clay loam soil after the addition of the addition of different organic amendments (OAs). Addition of poultry compost (PC) and urban sewage sludge (USS) ... -
Influence of Different Organic Amendments on the Leaching and Dissipation of Terbuthylazine in a Column and a Field Study
Dolaptsoglou, C.; Karpouzas, D. G.; Menkissoglu-Spiroudi, U.; Eleftherohorinos, I.; Voudrias, E. A. (2009)Terbuthylazine (TA) is a herbicide that has been introduced for weed control in corn cultivations as a direct replacement for atrazine. Because incorporation of different organic amendments (OAs) is a common practice in ... -
Influence of soil physicochemical and biological properties on the degradation and adsorption of the nematicide fosthiazate
Pantelelis, I.; Karpouzas, D. G.; Menkissoglu-Spiroudi, U.; Tsiropoulos, N. (2006)The degradation and adsorption of the organophosphorus nematicide fosthiazate were investigated in nine soils with various physicochemical and biological characteristics. Fosthiazate was more persistent in acidic soils (pH ... -
Isolation and characterization of bacteria from acidic pristine soil environment able to transform iprodione and 3,5-dichloraniline
Campos, M.; Perruchon, C.; Vasilieiadis, S.; Menkissoglu-Spiroudi, U.; Karpouzas, D. G.; Diez, M. C. (2015)Iprodione is a fungicide commonly used in a range of crops resulting in its common detection in natural water resources. Biological degradation constitutes the major dissipation processes controlling its environmental ... -
Laboratory and field dissipation of penoxsulam, tricyclazole and profoxydim in rice paddy systems
Tsochatzis, E. D.; Tzimou-Tsitouridou, R.; Menkissoglu-Spiroudi, U.; Karpouzas, D. G.; Katsantonis, D. (2013)Rice cultivation relies on pesticide applications to ensure high yields. However, the regular use of pesticides seriously affects the quality of neighboring surface water systems. Thus complete knowledge of the environmental ... -
Leaching of the organophosphorus nematicide fosthiazate
Karpouzas, D. G.; Pantelelis, I.; Menkissoglu-Spiroudi, U.; Golia, E.; Tsiropoulos, N. G. (2007)Fosthiazate is an organophosphorus nematicide which was recently included in Annex I of the Directive 91/414/EEC under the clause that it should be used with special care in soils vulnerable to leaching. Thus, the leaching ... -
A multi-residue method for pesticide residue analysis in rice grains using matrix solid-phase dispersion extraction and high-performance liquid chromatography-diode array detection
Tsochatzis, E. D.; Menkissoglu-Spiroudi, U.; Karpouzas, D. G.; Tzimou-Tsitouridou, R. (2010)Pesticides are widely used in rice cultivation, often resulting in detection of their residues in rice grains. So far, no analytical method has been available for the simultaneous determination of most rice pesticides in ... -
