It is a fungicide derived from phthalimide (C 6 H 4 (CO) 2 N-) and trichloromethylsulfenyl chloride. The compound is white although commercial samples can appear brownish. The compound is white although commercial samples can appear brownish.
Fluazinam is a protectant fungicide, but is neither systemic or curative. It acts by inhibiting the germination of spores and the development of infection structures. Although it has activity against many fungi, it is less potent against rusts and powdery mildew and as such has not been commercialised for use in cereal crops.
Fungicide residues have been found on food for human consumption, mostly from post-harvest treatments. [16] Some fungicides are dangerous to human health, such as vinclozolin, which has now been removed from use. [17] Ziram is also a fungicide that is toxic to humans with long-term exposure, and fatal if ingested. [18]
Fluopyram is a fungicide and nematicide used in agriculture. [2] [3] It is used to control fungal diseases such as gray mold (Botrytis cinerea), powdery mildew, apple scab, Alternaria, Sclerotinia, and Monilinia. It is an inhibitor of succinate dehydrogenase (SDHI fungicide). [4]
Vinclozolin is then formulated into a dry flowable or extruded granular. It can be applied by through the air (aerial), through irrigation systems (chemigation), or by ground equipment. Vinclozolin is also applied to some plants, such as decorative flowers, as a dip treatment where the plant is dipped into the fungicide solution and then dried.
An antifungal medication, also known as an antimycotic medication, is a pharmaceutical fungicide or fungistatic used to treat and prevent mycosis such as athlete's foot, ringworm, candidiasis (thrush), serious systemic infections such as cryptococcal meningitis, and others.
Chlorothalonil (2,4,5,6-tetrachloroisophthalonitrile) is an organic compound mainly used as a broad spectrum, nonsystemic fungicide, with other uses as a wood protectant, pesticide, acaricide, and to control mold, mildew, bacteria, algae. [2] Chlorothalonil-containing products are sold under the names Bravo, Echo, and Daconil.
S. lacrymans is a form of brown rot, a group of fungi which digest the cellulose and hemicellulose in timber. This particular species poses the greatest threat to buildings since it can spread through non-nutrient providing materials (e.g., masonry and plaster) for several meters until it finds more timber to attack.
