Pendimethalin is not toxic to mammals, though interestingly the oral LD 50 for rats and mice is 1050-1620 mg/kg, yet for dogs and rabbits it is much less harmful, at over 5000 mg/kg. For comparison, table salt 's LD 50 is 3000 mg/kg.
The system is based on LD50 determination in rats, thus an oral solid agent with an LD50 at 5 mg or less/kg bodyweight is Class Ia, at 5–50 mg/kg is Class Ib, LD50 at 50–2000 mg/kg is Class II, and at LD50 at the concentration more than 2000 mg/kg is classified as Class III. Values may differ for liquid oral agents and dermal agents. [1]
This is a list of herbicides. These are chemical compounds which have been registered as herbicides . 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 Herbicide Resistance Action Committee (HRAC) classifies herbicides by their mode of action (MoA) to provide a uniform way for farmers and growers to identify the agents they use and better manage pesticide resistance around the world. [1] [2] It is run by CropLife International [3] in conjunction with the Weed Science Society of America ...
Benfluralin (or Benefin) is a herbicide of the dinitroaniline class. The mechanism of action of benfluralin involves pre-emergent inhibition of mitosis, root and shoot development, [3] same as trifluralin, from which benfluralin was developed in 1963. [4] Shows states where benefin (as Balan DF) is registered (Green) or not (Red).
Chlortoluron was first licensed for use in the European Union in 1994 [10] and this has been extended, currently until October 2021. [11] It is now mainly used in mixture with other herbicides including diflufenican and pendimethalin. [12]
