(Also known as: flamprop-M; CL 901444; AC 901444; L-flamprop-isopropyl)
SUMMARY
Flamprop-M-isopropyl is a discontinued herbicide. It has a low solubility in water, is volatile and there is some concern regarding risk of leaching to groundwater. It is moderately persistent in soils. Whilst it has a low mammalian toxicity there is some concern about bioaccumulation. No serious human health risks have been identified. It is moderately toxic to birds, most aquatic organisms, honeybees and earthworms.
Data alerts
The following alerts are based on the data in the tables below. An absence of an alert does not imply the substance has no implications for human health, biodiversity or the environment but just that we do not have the data to form a judgement.
