Based upon analyses using a number of validated structure-activity relationship models, it is concluded that the carcinogenicity in rodents of chlorothalonil is not due to a genotoxic mechanism.
The precise application of risk assessment can lead to different conclusions about risk depending on how species are grouped in the assessment. We compared the use of different risk assessment methods for three different classes of pesticide, the herbicide diuron
Although studies on biodiversity and ecosystem function are often framed within the context of anthropogenic change, a central question that remains is how important are direct vs. indirect (via changes in biodiversity) effects of anthropogenic stressors on ecosystem functions in
Food additives & contaminants. Part A, Chemistry, analysis, control, exposure & risk assessment, 30(2), 298-307 (2012-11-03)
Chlorothalonil is a non-systemic fungicide that is easily degraded in contact with plants and soil or even by the effect of light and pH. A method for the determination of chlorothalonil in courgettes, strawberries, oranges, leeks and tomato by solvent
Chlorothalonil is a broad spectrum fungicide widely used in agricultural and urban environments, yet little is known regarding its effects on amphibians. We examined effects of chlorothalonil on growth, malformations, and mortality in embryos and larvae of Xenopus laevis and
