Oxidative Stress Induced by the 2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic Herbicide
Phenoxyacetic herbicides constitute one of the largest groups of herbicides sold in the world. Among them, since 1946, 2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D), whose structural formula is shown in Fig. 1, has been the most used. Nowadays, new formulations of 2,4-D are continuously made available. In fact, there are over 600 2,4-D products currently on the market. For over 60 years, 2,4-D has bee...
متن کاملInsight into the mode of action of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) as an herbicide.
2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) was the first synthetic herbicide to be commercially developed and has commonly been used as a broadleaf herbicide for over 60 years. It is a selective herbicide that kills dicots without affecting monocots and mimics natural auxin at the molecular level. Physiological responses of dicots sensitive to auxinic herbicides include abnormal growth, senescence,...
متن کاملProduction of a toxic metabolite in 2,4-D-resistant GM crop plants
This Note questions the safety of crop plants engineered with transgenes coding for the degradation of the herbicide 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) into its cytotoxic metabolite 2,4-dichlorophenol (2,4-DCP).
متن کاملRemoval of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid and 4-chloro-2-methyl phenoxyacetic acid herbicides from aquatic environments by a novel polymer magnetic nanoparticles
Background and Objective: Increased use of pesticides and chemical fertilizers in agriculture in order to increase the productivity of fertile lands has led to pollution of water resources with a variety of pollutants, including herbicides. In this study, a new polymer magnetic nanoadsorbent named PV/S-g-3D-GO/N was synthesized and used to remove 2,4-D and MCPA herbicides from aquatic environme...
متن کاملReview of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) biomonitoring and epidemiology
A qualitative review of the epidemiological literature on the herbicide 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) and health after 2001 is presented. In order to compare the exposure of the general population, bystanders and occupational groups, their urinary levels were also reviewed. In the general population, 2,4-D exposure is at or near the level of detection (LOD). Among individuals with indi...
