Diphenamid

Diphenamid is a chemical compound that exhibits herbicide activity. Diphenamid acts by inhibiting the enzyme acetyl-CoA carboxylase. Diphenamid has shown resistance as a model for mimicking organic pollutants in wastewater treatment processes, especially in the presence of multiple anions. The degradation of diphenamid is significantly affected by certain inorganic ions, such as chromium (VI) and nitrogen oxides. Diphenamid shows changes in toxicity with longer treatment times, and the results of toxicity tests on selected algae indicate higher toxicity at 240 minutes of treatment[1].
