Compatibility with chemical pesticides

To increase the marketability of Collego, its compatibility with chemical pesticides has been investigated. Mixtures of CGA with propanil [N-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)propanamide], molinate [S-ethyl hexahydro-lH-azepine-l-carbothioate], 2,4,5-T, and benomyl [methyl 1-(butylcarbamoyl)-2-benzimidazolecarbamate] were detrimental to CGA s efficacy (31). If, however, propanil, 2,4,5-T, fentin hydroxide (triphenyltin hydroxide), pencycuron N-[(4-chlorophenyl)methyl]-N-cyclopentyl-N -phenylurea), each at 0.56 kg ai/ha, and SN-84364 [3 -isopropoxy-2-(trifluoromethyl) benzanilide] (at 0.40 kg ai/ha) were applied after CGA treatment, disease and development were not inhibited (32). The herbicides, acifluorfen 5-[2-chloro-4-(trifluoromethyl)phenoxy]-2-nitrobenzoic acid) (0.56 kg ai/ha) and bentazon [3-(1-methylethyl)-(IH)-2,1,3-benzothiadiazin-4(3H)-one 2,2-dioxide] (0.56 to 1.1 kg ai/ha), or the insecticides, malathion [diethyl(dimethoxyphosphinothioylthio)succinate] (0.56 kg ai/ha) and carbofuran (2,3-dihydro-2,2-dimethyl-7-benzofuranyl methylcarbamate), (0.56 kg ai/ha) could be applied with CGA from a single tank mixture (33-34). ... 

Tank mix compatibility. Some chemicals only have limited compatibility with other pesticides this can be due to a problem with the formulations or with the activity of the chemical being affected. To get optimum weed corrtrol in some crops mixtures of chemicals are required or sometimes the use of sequences/ stacking (products applied in close succession) is mote effective. 

There are several future trends for the development of passive sampling techniques. The first is the development of devices that can be used to monitor emerging environmental pollutants. Recently, attention has shifted from hydrophobic persistent organic pollutants to compounds with a medium-to-high polarity, for example, polar pesticides, pharmaceuticals, and personal care products.82 147148 Novel materials will need to be tested as selective receiving phases (e.g., ionic liquids, molecularly imprinted polymers, and immunoadsorbents), together with membrane materials that permit the selective diffusion of these chemicals. The sample extraction and preconcentration methods used for these devices will need to be compatible with LC-MS analytical techniques. 

Tn developing any new pesticide formulation many factors must be - considered physical form, method of application, pests to be controlled, compatibility with other toxicants, and many more that are too numerous to mention. For a formulation to be useful, however, it must meet certain minimum chemical and physical stability requirements. Guthion (0,0-dimethyl S-[4-oxo-l,2,3-benzotriazin-3 (4H) -ylmethyl] phosphorothioate), which has been used for a number of years to control many insects, was the toxicant used in this investigation.

Based on their chemical and mechanical properties, imprinted materials were applied in a variety of techniques. Solid phase extraction (SPE) has become a common method used to concentrate analytes in order to improve their detection. Among the advantages of SPE nuterial based on MIPs were specificity and compatibility with both aqueous and organic solvents. MIPs as SPE matrixes were useftil for sample preconcentration and purification. The superior performance of MIPs SPE for routine analysis was demonstrated on a variety of compounds such as drug and pesticides. ... 

Immunoassay Development in Meat. The results presented above clearly indicate that the LLNL-Hept-2 antibody recognized all of the cyclodiene insecticides tested with roughly equal affinity. The next problem that needed to be solved was analyzing for pesticide residues in adipose tissue, the site of accumulation in animals. The heptachlor had to be extracted from the fat sample in a manner that is chemically compatible with an immunoassay. In... 

As suggested by the discussion above, the typical pesticide formulator is not going to be an expert on minerals. Selection of a mineral for a pesticide formulation is fairly simple - can one be found that is on the EPA s list of exempt inerts, that has adequate absorbency, that has an appropriate density, that gives a free flowing end-use product, and is chemically compatible with the active ingredient Any mineral that fits can be used. If there is no fit the pesticide formulator has the option to develop an entirely different formulation. 

The relative importance of both activities is well reflected on the population labor distribution per activity 70% is dedicated to agriculture and 15% to shellfish production [14] however, these two activities are not very compatible. Aquatic organisms are currently being exposed to multiple chemical and environmental stressors with different mechanisms of toxicity, each contributing to a final overall adverse effect [16]. Recently, the shellfish farmers in the Ebro River delta have complained about a loss of production in the periods of rice cultivation that they attribute to the heavy pesticide loads discharged after rice field treatment, and this has raised also public concern about the quality of the water in this area. 

Examples of the use of physical and colloidal chemical principles are involved in studies on the compatibility of pesticides with clays. Many pesticides are catalytically decomposed by clays. 

A formulation can contain more than one active ingredient to increase the efficacy range per application. This reduces labor time, because fewer sprajdngs are necessary than with separate spra3dngs of single pesticide formulations. A similar result is achieved when several products are mixed directly before application (tank mixes). However, the products of the different formulations must be compatible. For instance, oil- and water-based products cannot be mixed and would lead to phase separation. Chemical incompatibility can occur as result of reaction of acids with bases or hydrolysis of pH sensitive compounds. 

It is common practice to combine foliar application of micronutriails with pestidde sprays or with foliar application of primary nutrients. When two or more materials are combined for foliar application, care must be taken to ensure that the materials are compatible. Many pesticides are incompatible with solutions of micronutri-ents. Incompatibility means that some chemical or physical change takes place that renders the mixture unusable or harmful. In general, micronutrient solutions should be applied separately unless compatibility is shown.
