| Abstract/Contents: | "Aminopyralid is a new systemic low rate post-emergence herbicide in the pyridine carboxylic acid class for the selective control of noxious/invasive and agronomic broadleaf weeds in range and pasture, industrial vegetation management and wheat. As its formulated product (GF-871), aminopyralid exhibits low acute toxicity (Category III/IV). Overall, aminopyralid has a very favorable toxicity profile, with no evidence of teratogenicity, mutagenicity, carcinogenicity, endocrine or adverse reproductive effects. Because of aminopyralid's low toxicity, risks to workers handling aminopyralid soluble liquid formulations are extremely low. Aminopyralid produces no significant soil or water metabolites except CO2 and exhibits very low acute and chronic toxicity (practically nontoxic) to mammals, birds, fish, and aquatic invertebrates. Aminopyralid is slightly toxicity to algae and aquatic vascular plants and is substantially below all of EPA's levels of concern for adverse effects to these organisms. The route of degradation in soils is aerobic biodegradation with a median field soil half-life at North American locations of 32 days and an average Koc of 10.8 L/kg. Field experiments showed limited movement in the soil profile and aminopyralid demonstrates a low potential for groundwater concentration in EPA groundwater contamination models. In aquatic systems, the main route of aminopyralid degradation is photolysis with a half-life of 0.6-d. Aminopyralid does not have the physical/chemical properties similar to bioaccumulative compounds (Kow <3). Aminopyralid was granted Reduced Risk status by US EPA in October, 2004." |
