Environmental fate:
Animals:In rats, following oral administration, c. 92% is eliminated within 24 hours. The main degradation products are the oxygen-analogue, phenol, sulprofos sulfoxide and sulprofos sulfone, and the corresponding oxygen-analogues and phenols.Soil:The adsorption of sulprofos in various soil types occurred rapidly. The compound is highly adsorbed. The half-life of sulprofos is in the range of some days to several weeks, depending on the soil types. The major metabolites are sulprofos sulfoxide and sPlant:The major metabolites are sulprofos sulfoxide and sulprofos sulfone. The corresponding phenols and oxygen-analogues are minor degradation products.
