Does the PMRA evaluate the breakdown products of formulants that are contained in pesticides?
PMRA Answer: The PMRA does not necessarily know or evaluate the breakdown products for a specific formulant (molecule) on its own. The breakdown products would most likely vary depending on how it is used, what other chemicals are used in conjunction with a specific formulant. However, the transformation products are examined during the registration of a product for the entire formulation (the active ingredient and formulant together).
