Ecological Risk Assessment of the Uses of the Organophosphorus Insecticide Chlorpyrifos, in the United States

Giesy, John P. / Solomon, Keith R. / Cutler, G. Christopher / Giddings, Jeffrey M. / Mackay, Don / Moore, Dwayne R. J. / Purdy, John / Williams, W. Martin

As explained in the foreword, this volume of Reviews of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology is devoted to an assessment of the ecological risks posed by chlorpyrifos (O,O-diethyl O-(3,5,6-trichloro-2- pyridinyl) phosphorothioate; CAS No. 2921-88-2; CPY) as used in the United States (U.S.). CPY is a widely used organophosphorus insecticide that is available in a granular formulation for treatment in soil, or several flowable formulations that can be applied to foliage, soil, or dormant trees. CPY can be applied by use of aerial spraying, chemigation, ground boom or air-blast sprayers, tractor-drawn spreaders, or hand-held equipment.
