It has been found nontoxic to bees and marginally toxic to fish (rainbow trout LC 50 (96 hr) = 117 ppm). [4] Garlon's fact sheet for their triclopyr ester product indicates that triclopyr is highly toxic to fish, aquatic plants, and aquatic invertebrates, and should never be used in waterways, wetlands, or other sensitive habitats. [6]
Picloram is of moderate toxicity to the eyes and only mildly toxic on the skin. [3] No history of human intoxication by picloram has been documented, so symptoms of acute exposure are difficult to characterize. Picloram is the most persistent of its family of herbicides. [7]
Clopyralid (3,6-dichloro-2-pyridinecarboxylic acid) is a selective herbicide used for control of broadleaf weeds, especially thistles and clovers.Clopyralid is in the picolinic acid family of herbicides, which also includes aminopyralid, picloram, triclopyr, and several less common herbicides.
Need info. on health effects on humans, especially. Triclopyr is not regulated as a (human) toxic substance in California, which probably means that it has negligible human toxicity. However, the so-called "inert ingredients" of the various formulations may be toxic. 67.170.238.175 ( talk ) 17:21, 25 May 2013 (UTC) [ reply ]
2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic acid is an organic compound with the chemical formula Cl 2 C 6 H 3 OCH 2 CO 2 H.It is usually referred to by its ISO common name 2,4-D. [4] It is a systemic herbicide that kills most broadleaf weeds by causing uncontrolled growth, but most grasses such as cereals, lawn turf, and grassland are relatively unaffected.
TCPy or 3,5,6-trichloro-2-pyridinol is a cyclic hydrocarbon, specifically a chlorinated version of 2-pyridone.. Pesticides can be a precursor to TCPy. TCPy is a metabolite of the herbicide triclopyr, [1] and of the insecticides chlorpyrifos and chlorpyrifos-methyl.
In developing countries, such as Sri Lanka, pesticide poisonings from short-term very high level of exposure (acute poisoning) is the most worrisome type of poisoning. However, in developed countries, such as Canada, it is the complete opposite: acute pesticide poisoning is controlled, thus making the main issue long-term low-level exposure of ...
Aminopyralid is a selective herbicide used for control of broadleaf weeds, especially thistles and clovers. It is in the picolinic acid family of herbicides, which also includes clopyralid, picloram, triclopyr, and several less common herbicides.
