Environmental fate and exposure; neonicotinoids and fipronil
Systemic insecticides are applied to plants using a wide variety of methods, ranging from foliar sprays to seed treatments and soil drenches. Neonicotinoids and fipronil are among the most widely used pesticides in the world. Their popularity is largely due to their high toxicity to invertebrates, the ease and flexibility with which they can be applied, their long persistence, and their systemi...
متن کاملEnvironmental fate and toxicology of methomyl.
The insecticide methomyl, an oxime carbamate, was first introduced in 1968 for broad spectrum control of several insect classes, including Lepidoptera, Hemiptera, Homoptera, Diptera, and Coleoptera. Like other carbamates, it inhibits AChE activity, resulting in nerve and/or tissue failure and possibly death. Considered highly toxic to insects (larval and adult stages), methomyl is thought to be...
متن کاملEnvironmental fate and toxicology of clomazone.
Clomazone, an isoxazolane herbicide, was first registered for use in 1986 for pest grasses and broad leaf weeds. Although the exact mode of action is still unclear, it is well documented that clomazone causes bleaching of foliar structures; the clomazone metabolite 5-ketoclomazone is regarded to cause the bleaching and to be the ultimate plant toxicant. Although clomazone exhibits low mammalian...
متن کاملEnvironmental fate and toxicology of chlorothalonil.
Chlorothalonil is a broad spectrum, non systemic, organochlorine pesticide that was first registered in 1966 for turf grasses, and later for several food crops. Chlorthalonil has both a low Henry's law constant and vapor pressure, and hence, volatilization losses are limited. Although, chlorothalonil's water solubility is low, studies have shown it to be highly toxic to aquatic species. Mammali...
