APPLICATIONS
diquat dibromide
Biochemistry During photosynthesis, superoxide is generated, which damages cell membranes and cytoplasm.  Mode of action Non-selective contact herbicide and desiccant, absorbed by the foliage, with some translocation in the xylem.  Uses Pre-harvest desiccation of cotton, flax, alfalfa, clover, lupins, oilseed rape, poppies, soya beans, peas, beans, sunflowers, cereals, maize, rice, sugar beet, and other seed crops; destruction of potato haulms; and stripping of hops. Control of annual broad-leaved weeds in vines, pome fruit, stone fruit, bush fruit, strawberries (also control of runners), citrus fruit, olives, hops, vegetables, ornamental plants and shrubs, and other crops. Control of emergent and submerged aquatic weeds. Weed control on non-crop land. Weed control and tassel inhibition in sugar cane. Application rates 400-1000 g/ha.  Formulation types SL; Gel.  Compatibility Incompatible with alkaline materials, anionic surfactants (e.g. alkyl sulfonates or alkyl aryl sulfonates), and alkali-metal salts of hormone-type herbicides. 

 

MAMMALIAN TOXICOLOGY
diquat dibromide
Reviews FAO/WHO 68, 70 (see part 2 of the Bibliography).  Oral Acute oral LD50 for rats 408, mice 234 mg/kg.  Skin and eye Acute percutaneous LD50 for rats >793 mg/kg. Irritating to skin and eyes (rabbits). Absorption through intact human skin is minimal; exposure can cause irritation and a delay in the healing of cuts and wounds. Can cause temporary damage to nails.  Inhalation Extreme exposure to spray droplets may cause nose bleeding.  NOEL (2 y) for rats 0.47 mg/kg b.w. daily; (4 y) for dogs 94 mg/kg diet.  ADI (JMPR) 0.002 mg cation/kg b.w. [1993]; (EPA) 0.005 mg cation/kg b.w. [1995].  Water GV 10 mg cation/kg b.w. (provisional; based on ADI).  Toxicity class WHO (a.i.) II (cation); EPA (formulation) II (a.i.)  EC hazard T+; R26| T; R48/25| Xn; R22| Xi; R36/37/38| R43| N; R50, R53 

 

ECOTOXICOLOGY
diquat dibromide
Birds Acute oral LD50 for mallard ducks 155, partridges 295 mg/kg.  Fish LC50 (96 h) for rainbow trout 39, mirror carp 125 mg/l.  Daphnia LC50 (48 h) 2.2 mg/l.  Algae EC50 (96 h) 21 mg/l.  Bees LD50 (oral, 120 h) 22 mg/bee.  Worms LC50 (14 d) 243 mg/kg. 

 

ENVIRONMENTAL FATE
EHC 39 (WHO, 1984).  Animals In rats, following oral administration of diquat dibromide, the dose is completely eliminated in the urine and faeces within 4 days.  Plants Metabolic breakdown of diquat dibromide does not occur in plants. On plant surfaces, photochemical degradation occurs.  Soil/Environment Rapidly degraded by soil micro-organisms, DT50 of unadsorbed diquat <1 w; strong binding in soil increases persistence. Strongly bound and inactivated by soil and aquatic sediments and does not leach into groundwater; Kd >10 000.
