Special ReportsUSEPA/Office of Prevention, Pesticides and Toxic SubstancesReregistration Eligibility Decision Document - Chlorsulfuron (May 2005). The RED summarizes the risk assessment conclusions and outlines any risk reduction measures necessary for the pesticide to continue to be registered in the USA.[Available from, as of June 20, 2017 http://www.epa.gov/pesticides/reregistration/status.htm]Blair AM, Martin TDPestic Sci 22 (3): 195-220 (1988).

Based on a review of these data and public comments on the Agency's assessments for the active ingredient chlorsulfuron, EPA has sufficient information on the human health and ecological effects of chlorsulfuron to make decisions as part of the tolerance reassessment process under Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA) and reregistration under FIFRA, as amended by the Food Quality Protection Act (FQPA). The Agency has determined that currently registered uses of chlorsulfuron will not pose unreasonable risks or adverse effects to humans or the environment if the risk mitigation measures and label changes outlined in the RED are implemented. The Agency has determined that chlorsulfuron is eligible for reregistration.As the federal pesticide law FIFRA directs, EPA is conducting a comprehensive review of older pesticides to consider their health and environmental effects and make decisions about their continued use. Under this pesticide reregistration program, EPA examines newer health and safety data for pesticide active ingredients initially registered before November 1, 1984, and determines whether the use of the pesticide does not pose unreasonable risk in accordance to newer safety standards, such as those described in the Food Quality Protection Act of 1996. Chlorsulfuron is found on List A, which contains most pesticides that are used on foods and, hence, have a high potential for human exposure. List A consists of the 194 chemical cases (or 350 individual active ingredients) for which EPA issued registration standards prior to FIFRA '88. Case No: 0631Pesticide type: herbicideRegistration Standard Date: 09/30/82Case Status: OPP is reviewing data from the pesticide's producers regarding its human health and/or environmental effects, or OPP is determining the pesticide's eligibility for reregistration and developing the Reregistration Eligibility Decision (RED) document.Active ingredient (AI): ChlorsulfuronData Call-in (DCI) Date(s): 08/06/90, 08/16/91, 10/13/95AI Status: The producers of the pesticide has made commitments to conduct the studies and pay the fees required for reregistration, and are meeting those commitments in a timely manner.

WechselwirkungenPea (Pisum sativum L. cv Alaska) root tips were excised and cultured aseptically in White's medium. Cultures were treated immediately or after a 24 hour equilibration time with 28 nanomolar chlorsulfuron plus isoleucine and valine (each 0.1 millimolar), isoleucine and valine, or untreated. The percentage of mitotic figures in untreated control roots sampled immediately after excision showed a transitory drop and recovery within 24 hours (an excision effect). In chlorsulfuron-treated roots, the percentage of mitotic figures did not recover. In roots treated with chlorsulfuron plus isoleucine and valine, a complete recovery did occur. If roots were treated with chlorsulfuron 24 hours after excision, the percentage of mitotic figures was reduced to near 0 by 8 hours. In roots treated with chlorsulfuron plus isoleucine and valine, no reduction in mitotic figures occurred. The complete reversal of chlorsulfuron-inhibited mitotic entry by isoleucine and valine implicates these amino acids, in some manner, with the control of cell cycles progression.

UmweltverhaltenTERRESTRIAL FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), Koc values of 6.3-154(2-3) indicate that chlorsulfuron is expected to have very high to high mobility in soil(SRC). The pKa of chlorsulfuron is 3.4(4), indicating that this compound will exist almost entirely in the anion form in the environment and anions generally do not adsorb more strongly to soils containing organic carbon and clay than their neutral counterparts(5). Volatilization of the anion from moist soil is not expected because anions do not volatilize(SRC). Chlorsulfuron is not expected to volatilize from dry soil surfaces(SRC) based upon a vapor pressure of 2.25X10-11 mm Hg at 25 °C(4). The degradation half-life of chlorsulfuron incubated at 70% field capacity and 30 °C for 7 weeks was 8 and 6 days in samples from the 0-20 (pH 5.6 and 26.4% organic matter) and 20-40 cm (pH 5.2 and 35.1% organic matter) depths, respectively(6). Degradation of chlorsulfuron in 2 different soils at 25 °C and a moisture content 70% of field capacity followed 1st order kinetics, with rate constants of 0.015 and 0.025/day(7). Chlorsulfuron decomposition was faster in the soil with greater organic matter (3.0 vs 1.9%) and lower pH (6.0 vs 7.6)(7). N-(2-Chlorobenzenesulfonyl)carbamic acid was identified as a breakdown product(7). Chlorsulfuron applied to alkaline soils (pH 7.1-9.4) at 40 ug/kg and maintained at 70% of field capacity and 25 °C, degraded with half-lives of 19 to 42 days in surface soils(8). The rate of degradation decreased with increasing soil depth, as half-lives were nearly four times greater at 30-40 cm, as compared to the surface soils(8). The half-life of chlorsulfuron was 12-28 days in the field in soils with pH values of 4.9-6.5 with temperatures of 2.7-23.2 °C(9).AQUATIC FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), Koc values of 6.3-154(2-3) indicate that chlorsulfuron may adsorb to suspended solids and sediment(SRC). A pKa of 3.4(4) indicates chlorsulfuron will exist almost entirely in the anion form at pH values of 5 to 9 and, therefore, volatilization from water surfaces is not expected to be an important fate process(SRC). Chlorsulfuron will undergo hydrolysis with aqueous half-lives of 4 weeks at pH 5.7 and 8 weeks at pH 7.0 at 20 °C(5). According to a classification scheme(6), an estimated BCF of 3(SRC), from its log Kow of -1.34(7) and a regression-derived equation(8), suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low. Photolysis in sunlit surface waters may be an important fate process given an aqueous photolysis half-life of 1 month(9). Biodegradation of chlorsulfuron in water is expected to occur slowly given half-lives of 103 to 207 days at 40 °C in alkaline(pH 7.5 to 8.7) river water obtained from the Arno River, Italy(10).ATMOSPHERIC FATE: According to a model of gas/particle partitioning of semivolatile organic compounds in the atmosphere(1), chlorsulfuron, which has a vapor pressure of 2.25X10-11 mm Hg at 25 °C(2), is expected to exist solely in the particulate phase in the ambient atmosphere. Particulate-phase chlorsulfuron may be removed from the air by wet and dry deposition(SRC). Chlorsulfuron is unlikely to undergo direct photolysis in the atmosphere(3).
Milk ConcentrationsChlorsulfuron was not detected (detection limit 0.6 ug/kg) in 100 raw milk, 30 full-fat milk, 20 half-skimmed milk and 20 skimmed milk samples(1). Raw milk was provided by a local farm and all other milk samples were obtained from local supermarkets in Shenyang, China(1).
ToxizitätsübersichtIDENTIFICATION AND USE: Chlorsulfuron is a white crystalline solid. It is a selective preemergence or early postemergence herbicide used at low rates. HUMAN STUDIES: There are no data available. ANIMAL STUDIES: In 2 yr feeding trials, rats receiving 100 mg/kg diet and mice receiving 500 mg/kg diet showed no ill-effects. Developmental studies in rats demonstrated reduced maternal body weights and food consumption at 1500 mg/kg/day and decreased fetal body weights at 1500 mg/kg/day. There were no teratogenic effects. Chlorsulfuron tested negative for mutagenicity in Salmonella typhimurium bacterial strains TA98, TA100, TA1535, TA1537 treated for 48 hours with chlorsulfuron at 0, 0.001, 0.005, 0.01, 0.05, 0.1 or 0.5 ug/plate with or without metabolic activation. ECOTOXICITY STUDIES: Chlorsulfuron is practically non-toxic to birds and mammals on an acute exposure basis and is also practically nontoxic to birds on a subacute dietary exposure basis. Following chronic exposure, bobwhite quail exhibited significant reductions in female body weight, 14-day old survivors/normal hatchlings, viable embryos/eggs set, and 14-day hatchling survival/eggs set. Chlorsulfuron is also practically nontoxic to honeybees on an acute contact basis. Chlorsulfuron is practically nontoxic to both freshwater and estuarine/marine fish on an acute exposure basis and is slightly toxic to estuarine/marine invertebrates. Aquatic plant toxicity ranged from practically nontoxic to very highly toxic. Chlorsulfuron is toxic to nontarget terrestrial plants. Chlorsulfuron is a potent inhibitor of cell division and branched amino acid biosynthesis in plants.

Duckweed (Lemna gibba) was the most sensitive vascular aquatic plant ... The most sensitive nonvascular aquatic plant is green algae .../AQUATIC SPECIES/ Research has been conducted on the effect of chlorsulfuron on non-target plants but little information is available on its effects on aquatic macrophytes. Potamogeton pectinatus (sago pondweed) is an ecologically important submerged aquatic macrophyte found in freshwater bodies. Many species of wildlife use this plant as a food source. The objective of this study was to measure the phytotoxic effects of chlorsulfuron on sago pondweed. P. pectinatus plants were exposed to chlorsulfuron at 0, 0.25, 0.50, 1.0, or 2.0 ppb, in an environmental growth chamber. Plants exposed to 0.25 ppb chlorsulfuron showed a reduction in length (76%), number of leaves (50%), and number of stems (50%), compared to control plants. A reduction (47%) was also observed in the length of stems produced by plants treated with > or = 0.50 ppb chlorsulfuron. Significant reductions in wet and dry weights, and increased mortality were observed on treatments with > or = 1.0 ppb chlorsulfuron.For more Ecotoxicity Excerpts (Complete) data for Chlorsulfuron (10 total), please visit the HSDB record page.

EPA IRIS InformationChlorsulfuron5 x 10 ^-2 mg/kg-day
Soil Adsorption/MobilityExperimental Koc values of 6.3 to 154 have been reported in many different soil types(1-8). Decreases in the amount of organic carbon, an increase in soil pH and an increase in soil temperature have been observed to result in an increase in the mobility of chlorsulfuron(1-6). At a pH of approximately 4, chlorsulfuron was moderately adsorbed to soil, but was weakly adsorbed and very mobile at higher pH(3). According to a classification scheme(9), these Koc values suggest that chlorsulfuron is expected to have very high to high mobility in soil.Experimental soil adsorption coefficient's of chlorsulfuron were reported in soils at different temperatures as follows(1):[Table#6357]The soil distribution coefficients (Kd and Koc) of chlorsulfuron in three tilled surface soils collected in Spain were as follows(1):[Table#6358]Leaching of the herbicides chlorsulfuron and metsulfuron methyl was studied using field lysimeters containing either undisturbed soil monoliths or packed soil. Three soil types were represented, two sandy soils and one clay soil. Each herbicide was applied at two rates, 4 and 8 g ai/ha, representing normal and double doses of the compound for spring cereals. All lysimeters received supplementary watering in addition to natural rainfall. With the exception of a single sample that had a chlorsulfuron concentration (14 ng/L) just above the detection limit, neither compound was detectable in leachate from lysimeters receiving the normal dose of the herbicides. For both herbicides at double dose, levels above the minimum detectable were found in selected lysimeters, reaching 43 and 21 ng/L drainage water for chlorsulfuron and metsulfuron methyl, respectively. Converted to fluxes over the 7 mo period, considerably less than 1% of the applied chlorsulfuron and metsulfuron methyl appeared in leachate.For more Soil Adsorption/Mobility (Complete) data for Chlorsulfuron (7 total), please visit the HSDB record page.
Artificial Pollution SourcesChlorsulfuron's production may result in its release to the environment through various waste streamsit's use as an herbicide(1) will result in its direct release to the environment(SRC).
Environmental BiodegradationAEROBIC: The half-life of chlorsulfuron in non-sterile soils was 5 and 15 days at 30 °C compared to the half-life of 21 and 28 days in the sterile soils(1). Microbial breakdown accounted for 79% of the total initial degradation in a silt loam soil (pH 5.9, organic matter 5%), 50% in a sandy loam soil (pH 6.5, organic matter 1%) and 91% in a silt loam soil (pH 8.0, organic matter 5%)(1). Microbial breakdown accounted for only 25% of total loss in a silty clay loam soil (pH 5.6, organic matter 2.4%)(2).

Beschreibung

Chlorsulfuron is one of the first sulfonylurea herbicides developed and commercialized by DuPont. Dr George Levitt and his team at DuPont first synthesized chlorsulfuron in 1976, and it was commercialized for use as a herbicide in 1981. It is currently registered by DuPont in the United States, Canada, the European Union, Russia, the Ukraine, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Saudi Arabia, and in several countries of South America. Compared with many other herbicides that are applied at levels of pounds per acre (or kilograms per acre), sulfonylureas are highly effective at use rates of less than an ounce per acre (approximately 6 g per acre for chlorsulfuron).

Verwenden

Chlorsulfuron is used as a postemergence herbicide for the control of dicotyledonous weeds, with excellent safety for wheat and other cereals crops. While chlorsulfuron is primarily used to control weeds in cereals, it can also be used in range and pasture applications. It is currently only used to a minor extent for nonfood industrial applications and right-of-way purposes.
