![Page 2: Secondary Effects and Fate of Fluridone Used to Eradicate ... · 23/07/2014 · John Morton, Suresh Sethi, Matt Bowser, Edgar Guerron-Orejuela, Jen Peura. Fluridone kills elodea](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050503/5f95848f3e4d1a491b579344/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Fluridone kills elodea systemically and selectively with few nontarget effects
Absorbed through roots and shoots (systemic) Inhibits carotenoid synthesis (photosynthesis) and
elodea is particularly sensitive (selective) Applied as liquid or slow-release pellets Degrades by photolysis, adsorption, absorption Needs to be in water column for 45 – 90 days
![Page 3: Secondary Effects and Fate of Fluridone Used to Eradicate ... · 23/07/2014 · John Morton, Suresh Sethi, Matt Bowser, Edgar Guerron-Orejuela, Jen Peura. Fluridone kills elodea](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050503/5f95848f3e4d1a491b579344/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
As determined by the U.S. EPA and the State of Alaska – fluridone poses a negligible risk to human health and the environment when used according to label instructions.
No Swimming RestrictionsNo Potable Water Restrictions (drinking)
• 2000x Safety Margin• Maximum rate (150 PPB) – 2 quarts of water per day – 2000X below
NOEL (No-Observed-Effect-Level)No Fishing Restrictions
Fluridone has few restrictions

Soil adsorption coefficient (KOC): 350-2200 (soil type, pH)• Indicates a strong affinity to bind with soil particles• Low risk of soil leaching and offsite movement• Low risk of movement to ground water
Half-life in aquatic environments (in-water): 14-60 days• Dependent upon UV light• Adsorption
Half-life in aquatic environments (hydrosoil): 120-270 days• Desorption• Microbial composition• Aerobic / anaerobic
Fluridone degrades fairly rapidly
