Carbofuran is a carbamate pesticide, widely used around the world to control insects on a wide variety of field crops, including potatoes, corn and soybeans.It is a systemic insecticide, which means that the plant absorbs it through the roots, and from there the plant distributes it throughout its organs where insecticidal concentrations are attained. The chemical works by interfering with the transmission of stimuli in the insect nervous system. Poisons are not scheduled on the basis of a universal scale of toxicity. Although toxicity is one of the factors considered, and is itself a complex of factors, the decision to include a substance in a particular Schedule also takes into account many other criteria such as the purpose of use, potential for abuse, safety in use and Poisons are not scheduled on the basis of a universal scale of toxicity. Toxaphene is a mixture of over 670 different chemicals and is produced by reacting chlorine gas with camphene. Use during pregnancy appears to be safe. Specifically, it causes a blockage of the nicotinergic neuronal pathway. Although generally considered safe to use Toxicity Toxicodynamics. The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) reports that global pesticide use in 2012 amounted to approximately six billion pounds. It became a highly controversial agrichemical due to its acute toxicity, potential for bioaccumulation, and role as an endocrine disruptor.Because of its threats to human health and the environment, a global ban on the manufacture and use of endosulfan was negotiated Toxaphene was an insecticide used primarily for cotton in the southern United States during the late 1960s and the 1970s. PRINCIPLES OF SCHEDULING. Neonicotinoids (sometimes shortened to neonics / n i o n k s /) are a class of neuro-active insecticides chemically similar to nicotine. Classical biological control involves the introduction of natural enemies of the pest that are bred in the laboratory and released into Biological pest control is a method of controlling pests such as insects and mites by using other organisms. Production and use. Chlorpyrifos (CPS), also known as Chlorpyrifos ethyl, is an organophosphate pesticide that has been used on crops, animals, and buildings, and in other settings, to kill several pests, including insects and worms.It acts on the nervous systems of insects by inhibiting the acetylcholinesterase enzyme. Classical biological control involves the introduction of natural enemies of the pest that are bred in the laboratory and released into Chlorpyrifos was patented in 1966 by Dow Chemical Company. Malathion is of low toxicity. Aldrin is an organochlorine insecticide that was widely used until the 1990s, when it was banned in most countries. Aldrin is a member of the so-called "classic organochlorines" (COC) group of pesticides. Toxicity Toxicodynamics. The neonicotinoid family includes acetamiprid, clothianidin, dinotefuran, imidacloprid, nitenpyram, nithiazine, thiacloprid and thiamethoxam. PRINCIPLES OF SCHEDULING.

Spinosad is an insecticide based on chemical compounds found in the bacterial species Saccharopolyspora spinosa.The genus Saccharopolyspora was discovered in 1985 in isolates from crushed sugarcane.The bacteria produce yellowish-pink aerial hyphae, with bead-like chains of spores enclosed in a characteristic hairy sheath. It is usually encountered as colorless crystals or a white powder, that dissolves in water, and occurs in nature as the mineral sassolite.It is a weak acid that yields various borate anions and salts, and can react DDT has been formulated in multiple forms, including solutions in xylene or petroleum distillates, emulsifiable concentrates, water-wettable powders, granules, aerosols, smoke candles and charges for vaporizers and lotions..
