Abstract: | The synthesis of agrochemical metabolite reference standards by microbial cultures can serve as a useful alternative to conventional
chemical synthesis, particularly when the chemical synthesis is difficult. Microbially generated metabolites of agrochemicals
can also be useful for predicting degradative pathways in animals, plants and soils prior to conducting animal, plant and soil metabolism studies which are required by regulatory agencies to support agrochemical
registrations. Examples from the literature are used to illustrate the utility of synthesizing metabolites of agrochemicals
by common microbes.
