Agrochemicals and neurogenesis

open access: yesMolecular and Cellular Endocrinology, 2020
Agrochemicals or pesticides are compounds widely used to prevent, destroy or mitigate pests such as insects, rodents, herbs and weeds. However, most of them also act as environmental estrogens, anti-estrogens and/or antiandrogenic chemicals. In addition, both herbicides (such as glyphosate and paraquat) and insecticides (such as pyrethroids ...

Sulfur-Containing Agrochemicals

Topics in Current Chemistry, 2017
Modern agricultural chemistry has to support farmers by providing innovative agrochemicals. In this context, the introduction of sulfur atoms into an active ingredient is still an important tool in modulating the properties of new crop-protection compounds.

Perspectives on the agrochemical industry and agrochemical discovery

Pest Management Science, 2016
AbstractAgrochemicals have been critical to the production of food and fiber, as well as the control of vectors of disease. The need for the discovery and development of new agrochemicals continues unabated due to the loss of existing products through the development of resistance, the desire for products with more favorable environmental and ...

Use of cytokinins as agrochemicals

Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry, 2016
Plant hormones cytokinins regulate various aspects of plant growth and development. For their positive effects on branching, delaying of senescence, nutrient remobilisation, flower and seed set control they became interesting substances in search for potential agrochemicals.

Safe formulations of agrochemicals

Chemosphere, 1987
Abstract Different types of controlled release formulations of pesticides for application in fresh water systems has been developed. Release mechanisms and rates of some selected herbicides from ethylenevinylacetate copolymer (EVA) formulations, calcium alginate formulations and wettable powders as conventional control were studied.

The Agrochemical Industry

2007
This chapter deals with the chemicals used in agriculture mainly to protect, preserve, and improve crop yields. The term “agrochemical” is used broadly. Much agrochemical research and some advanced development is directed toward the introduction of genes that may provide disease, insect, or viral resistance into plants or other organisms.
