Saflufenacil and indaziflam herbicide effects on agricultural crops and microorganisms

Abstract

The herbicides saflufenacil and indaziflam have recently been registered in Brazil for weed control in sugarcane crops; however, little information exists regarding their residual effects or influences on soil microorganisms. Therefore, the present study aimed: (a) to determine the effects of saflufenacil and indaziflam on soil microorganisms and (b) to evaluate the residual and dose effects of these herbicides on soybean, sunflower, sunn hemp and peanut crops. The herbicides indaziflam (100 g a.i. ha

The possible cytotoxicity and genotoxicity assessment of indaziflam on HepG2 cells

“…Also, it has broad-spectrum activity at low application rates between 25 and 150 g of active ingredient (ai) per hectare in agricultural and nonagricultural areas. 6 Indaziflam is commonly used on both monocotyledons and dicotyledons. The half-life of indaziflam in soil has longer than 150 days.…”

“…Indaziflam is a herbicide that belongs to the chemical class of alkylazines and is currently used as a cellulose biosynthesis inhibiting. 6 It has broad-spectrum activity at low application rates. 7 Indaziflam is commonly used in crops (e.g.…”
