A preliminary study of the persistence of cyanazine in the aquatic environment / Y.L. Lau, D.L.S. Liu and G.J. Pacepavicius.: En13-5/96-155E-PDF

"This report describes some preliminary experiments carried out to investigate the volatility of cyanazine from the aqueous phase and its absorption by bottom-attached biofilms. It was found that cyanazine in the aquatic system can be considered as nonvolatile under normal room temperature. Some evidence of uptake by biofilms was found but further confirmation is required; The results of this work will be useful for determining the hazards posed by cyanazine to the aquatic environment"--Management perspective.
