Organic meat products contaminated with carcinogenic herbicide

open access: yesBMJ, 2002
A storage depot in east Germany has been identified as the source of several hundred tonnes of organic animal feed contaminated with the herbicide nitrofen. Before the reunification of Germany in 1990, the depot, in Mecklenburg-West Pomerania, was used for storing the herbicide.

Environmental benefits from carbon sequestration, canola production, and zero‐tillage adoption on Saskatchewan farms

open access: yesJournal of the Agricultural and Applied Economics Association, EarlyView.
Abstract Greenhouse gas emissions from crop production contribute to anthropogenic climate change, while agricultural soils also sequester atmospheric carbon. Direct measurement of soil organic carbon (SOC) is limited by high sampling costs and the vast spatial extent of farmland.

Effect of soil interacting herbicides on soybean nodulation in Balcarce, Argentina

open access: yesPesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira, 1999
Two trials were performed in Balcarce, Argentina (37° 45' LS; 58° 18' LW) during 1993-94, to assess the effect of eight herbicides applied individually or in tank mixtures, on nodule number, nodule dry weight, seed yield and N percent in seed in soybean ...

Supramolecular Solvent-Based Microextraction of Propachlor and Prometryn Herbicides in Soil Samples Prior to Liquid Chromatographic Analysis

open access: yesCumhuriyet Science Journal, 2018
Supramolecular solvents (SUPRASs) are thenano-structured liquids generated from amphiphiles through a self-assemblyprocess, and constitute an alternative to molecular organic solvents with becoming more environmentally friendly in samplepreparation step.

Effects of Glyphosate and Glyphosate‐Based Herbicides on the Mammalian Gut Microbiome: A Critical Review

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Glyphosate has long been considered to pose negligible direct risk to mammals on the grounds that its molecular target, 5‐enolpyruvylshikimate‐3‐phosphate synthase (EPSPS), of the shikimate pathway, is absent from animal cells. This rationale is inaccurate as a complete toxicological argument, because the shikimate pathway is present in some ...

Can we predict community-wide effects of herbicides from toxicity tests on macrophyte species? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Macrophyte communities play an essential role in the way freshwater ecosystems function. It is thus of great concern to understand how environmental factors, especially anthropogenic ones, influence their composition and diversity.

Cytotoxic and Oxidative Effects of Common Pesticides on Hepatic and Renal Cell Lines (HepG2 and Hek‐293): Implications for Human Health and Environmental Safety

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Modern agricultural practices expose humans and the environment to numerous chemical pesticides. Increasing evidence suggests that commercial pesticide formulations may exhibit toxicological properties that differ from those of their active ingredients alone due to the presence of co‐formulants and additives. This study evaluated the cytotoxic

W222-EPA Decision on the Use of Organic Arsenical Herbicides for Weed Managment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Organic arsenical herbicides are currently registered to control weeds in both turfgrass and cotton. Examples of some commonly used organic arsenical herbicides used in Tennessee are monosodium methanearsonate (MSMA), disodium methanearsonate (DSMA) and ...
