CGA 219417: a novel broad-spectrum fungicide

Cyprodinil

“…It is quite soluble in most organic solvents. The partition coefficient log P OW (n-octanol/ water) is 3.9 at pH 5.0 or 4.0 at pH 7.0 and pH 9.0 (Heye et al, 1994).…”

Combined Effects of Fungicides and Thermotherapy on Post-Harvest Quality of Horticultural Commodities

“…These compounds are also defined like generally recognized as safe (GRAS) with respect to the previously used fungicides. They showed higher effectiveness at low doses, a more favourable toxicological and eco-toxicological profile and different mechanisms of action with respect to the old generation of fungicides (Heye et al, 1994;Errampalli & Crnko, 2004). Therefore, these new fungicides may be very useful as an alternative to traditional fungicides which are ineffective against resistant strains of pathogens (Schirra, 2005).…”

The sex-specific sulfation of the major metabolite of the novel fungicide cyprodinil in the rat

“…Cyprodinil exhibits a broad-spectrum activity against a variety of phytopathogenic fungi, making it suitable for protection of cereals, grapes, apples and vegetables. 1 The pyrimidinamines interfere with methionine biosynthesis of phytopathogenic fungi, a pathway speci®c to microorganisms and plants. 2 As part of the toxicological evaluation of cyprodinil, the urinary metabolites were identi®ed after oral administration to rats.…”
