Can Approved Uses of Bispyribac-sodium Affect Human Health?
Bispyribac-sodium is unlikely to affect your health when used according to label directions. Exposure to bispyribac-sodium may occur when handling and applying the product. When assessing health risks, two key factors are considered: the level where no health effects occur and the levels to which people may be exposed. The dose levels used to assess risks are established to protect the most sensitive human population (e.g. children and nursing mothers). Only uses for which the exposure is well below levels that cause no effects in animal testing are considered acceptable for registration. Toxicology studies in laboratory animals describe potential health effects from varying levels of exposure to a chemical and identify the dose where no effects are observed. The health effects noted in animals occur at doses more than 100 times higher (and often much higher) than levels to which humans are normally exposed when using bispyribacsodium products according to label directions.
