Bacterial degradation of tributyltin / R.J. Maguire ... [et al.].: En13-5/85-82E-PDF
"A study of the degradation of tributyltin by bacteria from Toronto Harbour sediment revealed that at 20ºC the degradation was significantly faster under anaerobic conditions than under aerobic conditions. This finding means that estimates of persistence of tributyltin in aquatic ecosystems should take into account the degree to which the system is aerobic or anaerobic"--Exec. summary.
