Glossary of terms relating to pesticides (IUPAC Recommendations 2006) Abstract: The glossary contains definitions of more than 500 terms frequently used in relation to the chemistry, mode of action, regulation, and use of pesticides. A wide range of disciplines is involved in this field, and the glossary was developed as a step in facilitating communication among researchers, government regulatory authorities, and chemists in associated professional areas. The range of terms re- lates to pesticide residue analysis, sampling for analysis, good laboratory practice, metabolism, environmental fate, effects on ecosystems, computer simulation mod- els, toxicology, and risk assessment. The number of important, “pesticide-related” terms has more than doubled since 1996, when the first IUPAC glossary of this type was developed [1], an indication of how this field has become so integrated with many other scientific and regulatory disciplines. Keywords: IUPAC Chemistry and the Environment Division; glossary; pesticides; regulation; pesticide residue analysis; sampling for analysis; good laboratory prac- tice; metabolism; environmental fate; risk assessment. CONTENTS PREFACE ACKNOWLEDGMENTS ALPHABETICAL ENTRIES ANNEX 1. ABBREVIATIONS AND ACRONYMS OF NAMES OF INTERNATIONAL AND NATIONAL BODIES ANNEX 2. ABBREVIATIONS AND ACRONYMS OF TERMS RELATED TO PESTICIDES ANNEX 3. SOURCES PREFACE Pesticides are a broad class of bioactive compounds important for food and crop production and for human health. The development, production, use, and regulation of pesticides encompass a very wide range of disciplines including synthetic chemistry, chemistry of formulations and residues, biological and environmental fate, soil and plant science, toxicology, ecotoxicology, and risk assessment. Biotechnology, good laboratory practice, and computer simulation modeling are also very important to this field. There is a high degree of interest within regional and national government authorities as well as within international organizations. Educational institutions, media for mass communication, non- governmental organizations (e.g., consumer associations, environmental groups, and the general pub- lic) are also concerned with the complex issues surrounding pesticides. The need for good communi- cation among all the groups involved with, or interested in, pesticides is obvious. This IUPAC project develops a new glossary on pesticide nomenclature, terminology, and definitions which will also be published electronically to assist in this process. It is an update of an earlier IUPAC glossary of terms related to pesticides that was published in 1996 [1]. The glossary has drawn on a wide variety of sources. Some of the general definitions have been put into a pesticide context. However, in all cases, the aim has been to preserve the core meaning. Definitions for a number of formulation terms are inconsistent between different authorities, and we © 2006 IUPAC, Pure and Applied Chemistry 78, 2075–2154 Glossary of terms relating to pesticides 2077 have largely followed those of the FAO. The definitions and recommended abbreviations for the most commonly used formulations of pesticides are provided. The full list of over 60 formulation types de- fined by GIFAP [2,62] is available. The modes of action for a few fungicides, insecticides, and herbi- cides are presented, as examples, but there is no intent to be all-inclusive in this area. Furthermore, as research continues, these mechanisms will be understood more precisely. Whenever accurate and help- ful, with respect to pesticides, definitions of terms in the online version of the IUPAC 1997 Compendium of Chemical Terminology [3] are used as the preferred definitions. Toxicology definitions are also consistent with those recommended by the IUPAC Commission on Toxicology in their very comprehensive glossary [4]. However, we have not been able to examine all potentially relevant IUPAC glossaries for IUPAC-approved definitions of terms that appear here. Terms related to pesticide risk as- sessment are consistent with those developed by OECD and IPCS to advance their efforts for interna- tional harmonization and understanding in that field. Widely used abbreviations are given in the body of the glossary and can be readily found through the alphabetically ordered definitions or via cross ref- erences. Separate lists of abbreviations and acronyms of terms and national or international bodies with direct relevance to pesticides are provided. This project demonstrates a long-term commitment by IUPAC to the periodical updating of glos- saries by incorporating user as well as expert feedback. This publication ensures transparency and is an important quality control mechanism. The Web-based INFOCRIS version provides a transition mecha- nism and means to gauge client use. In addition, extensive mark-up language procedures encourage reuse of the glossary by other information systems. See the FAO/IAEA Web site for an example [5]. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS We are grateful to IUPAC for making funds available to facilitate the production of this glossary. We extend special appreciation to Carolyn Vickers, IPCS/WHO, and Richard Sigman, OECD, for their very valuable input in the preparation of this glossary. Furthermore, the active contributions of numerous other members of the Pesticide Glossary Working Group (not already listed on the cover page) are gratefully acknowledged. Members of this group include: I. Alleluia (IUPAC, Brazil), J. Bestari (Univ. of Guelph, Canada), E. Carazo (IUPAC, Costa Rica), P. Doyle (Syngenta, Canada), A. Felsot (IUPAC, USA), J. Gilmour (BCPC, UK), K. Gross-Helmert (Joint FAO/IAEA Programme, Austria), R. Gonzales (IUPAC, Chile), D. Hamilton (IUPAC, Australia), H. Jungblut (IUPAC, Germany), J. Linders (IUPAC, Netherlands), J.

  • Alternative Herbicides in Turfgrass and Organic Agriculture
    1 Volume XXXII, Number 5/6, May/June 2010 Alternative Herbicides in Turfgrass and Organic Agriculture By William Quarles Photo courtesy of Marrone Bio Innovations number of alternative herbi- cides have been developed A and are now either commer- cially available, or waiting for EPA approval. Major markets for these herbicides include the turfgrass industry and organic agriculture. Demand for “green” herbicides in turfgrass is being driven both by environmental concerns and regula- tory action. For instance, a number of provinces in Canada have banned cosmetic application of chemical pesticides such as 2,4-D for broadleaf weed control on lawns. Cultural methods can relieve some weed pressures, but alternative herbicides can make weed manage- ment less labor intensive (Abu- Dieyeh and Watson 2009; Hashman 2011; Bailey et al. 2010; Boyetchko et al. 2009).

  • OGC Revisions Final Draft IPM Guidelines 4 19 21
    EAST BAY MUNICIPAL UTILITY DISTRICT INTEGRATED PEST MANAGEMENT PROGRAM GUIDELINES April 2021 INTRODUCTION The East Bay Municipal Utility District (District) is responsible for implementing pest control management practices across approximately 57,000 acres of watershed lands and reservoirs in the East Bay and Sierra foothills. This includes multiple recreation areas, over 100 miles of rights-of-way along our aqueducts, facility grounds at hundreds of sites in five counties and other areas located throughout the District’s water source and service areas. Pests may include a wide range of both plant and animal species capable of creating a nuisance; however, the predominant pest addressed by the District is invasive vegetation. Within the District’s footprint, pests are managed for a number of reasons including but not limited to human health and safety, protection of infrastructure, regulatory requirements, fire risk reduction and preservation of habitat and biodiversity. The District is committed to using the most environmentally safe practices for pest control to ensure the health and safety of the public and District employees, and to protect potable water quality, natural resources and public and private property. The District established an Integrated Pest Management (IPM) program in the 1990s to develop a consistent approach toward pest management throughout the District using a combination of physical, biological and cultural controls and includes the use and monitoring of pesticides, which predominantly consist of herbicides. The IPM program provides written guidance for determining the most appropriate pest control methods for a particular situation. Ever evolving IPM procedures and practices are developed with input from industry and academic experts and staff having pest management responsibilities to ensure they are implementable and effective.

  • Efficacy of Electrolyzed Water in Degrading and Removing
    EFFICACY OF ELECTROLYZED WATER IN DEGRADING AND REMOVING PESTICIDE RESIDUES ON FRESH PRODUCE By HANG QI (Under the Direction of Yen-Con Hung) ABSTRACT Pure solution of diazinon, cyprodinil, and phosmet were treated with electrolyzed oxidizing (EO) water and electrolyzed reduced (ER) water. Lower pH, higher available chlorine content (ACC), and longer treatment time of EO water resulted in higher reductions of the three pesticides. ER water was effective in degrading phosmet, slightly effective in reducing diazinon, and ineffective in degrading cyprodinil. Soaking grapes in 12 mg/L mixed pesticide solution for 10 min was found to be the appropriate method for pesticide inoculation. EO water at 500 mL combined with 100 rpm shaking was determined to be the most effective way to wash 200 g contaminated grapes. Then, fresh grapes, spinach, and snap peas contaminated with the three pesticides were washed with EO water at different ACC and treatment time. The results showed both ACC and treatment time were significant (P ≤ 0.05) factors for EO water in removing the three pesticide residues on produce samples. EO water was more effective than ER water, diluted bleach, Vegwash and DI water. Finally, the effect of EO water treatment on produce quality was evaluated. No significant (P > 0.05) color and texture degradation was found for EO water treated produce samples.

In addition, the individual OPs have also been subject to review through the individual- chemical review process. The Agency’s review of individual OPs has resulted in the issuance of Interim Reregistration Eligibility Decisions (IREDs) for 22 OPs, interim Tolerance Reassessment and Risk Management Decisions (TREDs) for 8 OPs, and a Reregistration Eligibility Decision (RED) for one OP, malathion.1 These 31 OPs are listed in Appendix A. EPA has concluded, after completing its assessment of the cumulative risks associated with exposures to all of the OPs, that: (1) the pesticides covered by the IREDs that were pending the results of the OP cumulative assessment (listed in Attachment A) are indeed eligible for reregistration; and 1 Malathion is included in the OP cumulative assessment. However, the Agency has issued a RED for malathion, rather than an IRED, because the decision was signed on the same day as the completion of the OP cumulative assessment.

It therefore supports the implementation of a comprehensive Integrated Pest Management (IPM) program for all school buildings and grounds with the goal of controlling pests while preventing exposure of children to harmful pesticides. 1 Integrated Pest Management (IPM) will be defined as the coordinated use of physical, biological and cultural controls, and, in the face of a public health threat or substantial property damage, the use of least-toxic pest control chemicals. The goal of using IPM in Wellesley is to control pests without exposing people, property and the environment to harmful chemicals. Integrated Pest Management will be understood to involve the monitoring of pest populations, establishment of tolerance thresholds, modifications of habitats (to eliminate sources of food, water and harborage and entry), utilization of least-toxic controls, keeping of records and evaluation of performance on an ongoing basis.
