Carbendazim is a broad spectrum benzimidazole carbamate fungicide with systemic activity. Acute toxicity is low and excretion is rapid. At high dose levels, repeated exposure causes spermatogenic effects in rats and hepatic tumours in mice. Foetotoxic and teratogenic effects were observed in laboratory animals following bolus oral dosing, but not following dietary exposure.
Physical characteristics:
Pure carbendazim is a colourless, white crystaline, odourless solid which decomposes on melting at approximately -250ÂșC. Technical grade is >98% pure (FAO specification). Carbendazim is not corrosive.
Use recommendations:
Apply by spraying till the plants are completely wet.
Partly fill the spray tank with water. Mix recommended amount of the product with a small amount of water until the mixture forms a thick paste. Pour the paste into nearly filled spray tank and start the agitation to form emulsion.
