Characterization of colloid-size copper-based pesticide and its potential ecological implications.


ABSTRACT: The intensive use of Cu-based pesticides in agriculture could have an unintended impact on the ecosystems and human health via different exposure pathways. This paper presents the results of experiments involving colloidal stability, aggregation, and dissolution of Cu2O commercial pesticide under various environmental conditions in view of ecological implications. The investigated pesticide contains ?750?g?kg-1 Cu (75% weight of product), Cu2O particles with sizes?
