It is the most widely used herbicide in the world, and the third most commonly used in North America.[1] 2,4-D is also an important synthetic auxin, often used in laboratories for plant research and as a supplement in plant cell culture media such as MS medium. History 2,4-D was developed during World War II by a British team at Rothamsted Experimental Station, under the leadership of Judah Hirsch Quastel, aiming to increase crop yields for a nation at war.[citation needed] When it was commercially released in 1946, it became the first successful selective herbicide and allowed for greatly enhanced weed control in wheat, maize (corn), rice, and similar cereal grass crop, because it only kills dicots, leaving behind monocots. Mechanism of herbicide action 2,4-D is a synthetic auxin, which is a class of plant growth regulators.

  • Exposure to Herbicides in House Dust and Risk of Childhood Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
    Journal of Exposure Science and Environmental Epidemiology (2013) 23, 363–370 & 2013 Nature America, Inc. All rights reserved 1559-0631/13 www.nature.com/jes ORIGINAL ARTICLE Exposure to herbicides in house dust and risk of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia Catherine Metayer1, Joanne S. Colt2, Patricia A. Buffler1, Helen D. Reed3, Steve Selvin1, Vonda Crouse4 and Mary H. Ward2 We examine the association between exposure to herbicides and childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Dust samples were collected from homes of 269 ALL cases and 333 healthy controls (o8 years of age at diagnosis/reference date and residing in same home since diagnosis/reference date) in California, using a high-volume surface sampler or household vacuum bags. Amounts of agricultural or professional herbicides (alachlor, metolachlor, bromoxynil, bromoxynil octanoate, pebulate, butylate, prometryn, simazine, ethalfluralin, and pendimethalin) and residential herbicides (cyanazine, trifluralin, 2-methyl-4- chlorophenoxyacetic acid (MCPA), mecoprop, 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D), chlorthal, and dicamba) were measured. Odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were estimated by logistic regression. Models included the herbicide of interest, age, sex, race/ethnicity, household income, year and season of dust sampling, neighborhood type, and residence type. The risk of childhood ALL was associated with dust levels of chlorthal; compared to homes with no detections, ORs for the first, second, and third tertiles were 1.49 (95% CI: 0.82–2.72), 1.49 (95% CI: 0.83–2.67), and 1.57 (95% CI: 0.90–2.73), respectively (P-value for linear trend ¼ 0.05). The magnitude of this association appeared to be higher in the presence of alachlor.

  • Using Countless Tons of Arsenic As a Non-Selective Contact and Soil Sterilant
    87 In addition to requiring the user to obtain a permit from, the agricultural commissioner, t4e regulations prescribe certain conditions to be met by those who possess or use sodium arsenite as follows: (a) No pesticide containing sodium arsenite shall be applied on exposed vegetation (other than dormant grapeviries) unless the vegetation to be treated is enclosed within a good and su£ficient fence or otherwis.e made inaccessible to grazing animals, pets, and children. (b) No pesticide containing sodium arsenite sha,11 be applied on soil or vegetation (other than dormant grapevines) in any area penetrated by roots of any plant of value, without the written consent of the owner of such plant. ( c) No pesticide containing sodium arsenite shall be kept or placed in drinking cups, pop bottles, or other containers of a type commonly used for food or drink. (d) No pesticide containing sodium arsenite, whether in concentrated or dilute form, shall be stored, placed, or transported in any container or receptacle which does not bear on the outside a conspicuous poison label which conforms to the label required to be placed on all packages of arsenic compounds and pre:parations sold or delivered within the State. These are only procedures that any careful person would observe in the use of a poisonous material like sodium arsenite. It is just over one year since the regulations became effective. In that time we have heard of no accidental deaths involving sodium arsenite in California and the regulations appear to be serving a good purpose. SUBSTITUTE HERBICIDES FOR SODIUM ARSENITE W.

No sample exceeded the EPA tolerance for any of the herbicides. Analysis was by enzyme immunoassay.
