      abstract     = {The degradation of a chiral nonylphenol isomer,
                      4-(1-ethyl-1,4-dimethylpentyl)phenol (NP(112)), in two
                      agricultural soils from Monheim and Dortmund, Germany has
                      been studied. The degradation of NP(112) and the formation
                      of a nitro-nonylphenol metabolite were determined by means
                      of GC-MS analysis. The degradation followed bi-exponential
                      order kinetics, with half-life of less than 5 days in both
                      soils. The nitro-metabolite was found at different
                      concentration levels in the two soils. The nitro-metabolite
                      of NP(112) was more persistent than its parent compound.
                      After 150 days about $13\%$ of the initially applied NP(112)
                      remained in the Monheim soil as its nitro-metabolite.
                      Results of the E-screen assay revealed that the
                      nitro-NP(112) has oestrogenic potency of $85\%$ of that of
                      NP(112). Furthermore, the results of chiral GC-MS analysis
                      revealed that no chiral degradation of NP(112) occurred in
                      this study.},
