Do you know which additives are commonly used in glyphosate?
Among many herbicides widely used, glyphosate is an effective chemical component. This product is a broad-spectrum herbicide, widely used in agriculture because of its low toxicity and high efficiency. China started to produce glyphosate from 1980, which is one of the countries that produce glyphosate. Especially in 2000, Monsanto's glyphosate patent expired, and China has achieved large-scale production, and the output can already impact Monsanto's market. Glyphosate has low toxicity and high safety. The median lethal dose after oral administration is 4300 mg/kg, and the output of paraquat is second only to glyphosate. 3 ml can kill, the oral mortality rate is as high as 90%, and there is no specific treatment. Like many pesticides, it has been reported that glyphosate may cause cancer. So, even if glyphosate has an unknown cancer risk, isn't it? Big? . Glyphosate is a white powder with chemical formula C3H8NO5P, which is soluble in water, and its use in EU countries is strictly controlled. ECHA Risk Assessment Committee officially confirmed glyphosate as a non-carcinogenic substance on March 6, 201July. At present, the main SAA used in glyphosate auxiliaries are: tallow fatty amine ethoxylate, alkyl polyglycoside, fatty alcohol ethoxylate, silicone SAA, betaine, amino acid SAA, anti-drift agent, anti-hardener, synergist and so on. Glyphosate is a non-selective post-emergence herbicide with low toxicity, broad spectrum and high efficiency. It can be transmitted to plants, but it can only be sprayed on leaves to show the weeding activity of pesticides. Choosing suitable additives and improving weeding activity are the key to determine the weeding effect. Nothing in the world is completely nontoxic, just like the salt we eat every day. As far as human health is concerned, toxicity or non-toxicity lies entirely in controlling intake, that is, drinking too much water will be fatal (really, too much water in the body will dilute the concentration of sodium in the serum, leading to? Water poisoning? )。
