Amitrole

Amitrol

Svensk definition

Ett icke-selektivt, translokerat växtgift för bruk efter sådd. Kan vara karcinogent. Det hämmar irreversibelt katalas, och skadar därmed också peroxisomaktiviteten.

Engelsk definition

A non-selective post-emergence, translocated herbicide. According to the Seventh Annual Report on Carcinogens (PB95-109781, 1994) this substance may reasonably be anticipated to be a carcinogen. (From Merck Index, 12th ed) It is an irreversible inhibitor of CATALASE, and thus impairs activity of peroxisomes.
