One important factor which may influence the extent and rate of percutaneous absorption is the dosing vehicle. The purpose of the experiments described was to compare the effect of dosing vehicles of different polarities on the absorption of two herbicides
Enzyme mediated hydrolysis of fluazifop butyl has been measured with rat and human skin post-mitochondrial fractions. Rat skin had a ten times greater capacity to metabolise fluazifop butyl than human skin, but the enzyme affinities were similar. The post-mitochondrial fraction

1. We have described and compared the use of two blood sampling techniques to measure the kinetics of fluazifop-butyl, a selective herbicide. Following intravenous administration of radiolabelled compound, blood samples were collected from female rats either by tail vein puncture
In the present study, the distribution and nature of esterases in the rat which hydrolysed fluazifop-butyl, carbaryl, paraoxon and phenylacetate were investigated. Vmax and Km values for the hydrolysis reactions were determined. Fluazifop-butyl was hydrolysed to fluazifop by rat liver

The selective graminicide fluazifop-P-butyl is used for the control of grass weeds in dicotyledonous crops, and commonly applied in amenity areas to reduce grass productivity and promote wildflower establishment. However, evidence suggests that fluazifop-P-butyl might also have phytotoxic effects on
