SUMMARY |
Dichlorophen is a fungicide, herbicide, bactericide and algicide. It has a low aqueous solubility and, based on its chemical properties, it is unlikely to leach to groundwater. It is not usually persistent in soils. Dichlorophen has a low mammalian toxicity but is moderately toxic to fish, aquatic invertebrates and algae. |
