Cyprodinil (Ref: CGA 219417)	Last updated: 21/08/2024
(Not known by any other names)

SUMMARY

Cyprodinil is a systemic, broad-spectrum fungicide. It has a low solubility, is unlikely to leach to groundwater and is volatile. In soils it is moderately persistent but may be persistent in water systems depending on local conditions. It is moderately toxic to mammals and there is some concern that it may bioaccumulate. Whilst it is a recognised irritant no serious human health concerns have been identified. It is moderately toxic to birds, most aquatic organisms and earthworms. It is not considered toxic to honeybees.
