For example, Acuron is the name used by Syngenta for a mixture containing bicyclopyrone, atrazine and S-metolachlor in addition to mesotrione. Brand names for mesotrione include Callisto, Instigate, Meristo, Resicore and Tenacity. Suppliers and brand names in the United States are listed in the National Pesticide Information Retrieval System. [22]
Mesotrione was introduced in 2002 and like sulcotrione is a triketone, so it is effective on the same weeds and crops, but is more potent, making it more useful in mixes with other herbicides - an important factor for fully controlling weeds and preventing the development of resistance. It has become the biggest selling member of the HPPD class ...
The names on the list are the ISO common name for the active ingredient which is formulated into the branded product sold to end-users. [1] The University of Hertfordshire maintains a database of the chemical and biological properties of these materials, [2] including their brand names and the countries and dates where and when they have been ...
Health effects of pesticides may be acute or delayed in those who are exposed. [1] Acute effects can include pesticide poisoning, which may be a medical emergency. [2] Strong evidence exists for other, long-term negative health outcomes from pesticide exposure including birth defects, fetal death, [3] neurodevelopmental disorder, [4] cancer, and neurologic illness including Parkinson's disease ...
New tests done by the Environmental Working Group have found 21 oat-based cereals and snack bars popular amongst children to have "troubling levels of glyphosate." The chemical, which is the ...
Isoxaflutole is the ISO common name [16] for the active ingredient which is formulated into the branded product sold to end-users. The brand names in use for herbicides containing isoxaflutole include Balance, Cadu Star, Merlin and Spade. [1]
Leptospermone can be synthesized from phloroglucinol by a reaction with 3-methylbutanenitrile (isovaleronitrile) in the presence of a zinc chloride catalyst. . Phloroisovalerone imine is produced which is then alkylated with iodomethane after initial treatment with sodium ethoxide and methanol to produce an intermediate which is treated with aqueous hydrochloric acid resulting in ...
Genotoxic effects have also been observed in tadpoles exposed to metolachlor. [11] Evidence also reveals that metolachlor affects cell growth. Cell division in yeast was reduced, [ 12 ] and chicken embryos exposed to metolchlor showed a significant decrease in the average body mass compared to the control.
