PERSISTENCE AND DEGRADABILITY:
The persistence and degradability of this product has not been determined. Fipronil is degraded to Fipronil amide by
hydrolysis with a half-life of 28 days (pH 9 and 25°C).
Water: In water, Fipronil undergoes photolysis with a half-life of 0.151 days (0.9 mg/l at pH 5 and 25°C). Fipronil is also
metabolized in water under anaerobic conditions with half-lives of 116-130 days.
Soil: In loam soil (46% sand, 23% clay, 31% silt) containing 1.73% organic matter, Fipronil undergoes photolysis with a
half-life of 34 days (224 mg/kg at pH 6.7 and 25°C). Fipronil is also metabolized in soil under aerobic conditions with half-
lives of 122-128 and 308-342 days in sandy loam (1.7% organic matter and pH 7.8 at 25°C) and sand (3.3% organic
matter and pH 6.1 at 25°C), respectively. The metabolite under these conditions is 5-amino-3-cyano-1-(2,6-dichloro-4-tri-
fluoromethylphenyl)-4-trifluoromethanesulfonylpyrazole.
