Identification

Common Name

Butralin

Class

Small Molecule

Description

Butralin is a dinitroaniline herbicide used as a plant growth regulator on flue-cured and air-cured tobacco. In studies using laboratory animals, butralin generally has been shown to be of low acute toxicity. It has been placed in Toxicity Category III for effects via the oral route of exposure and eye irritation, and Toxicity Category IV for the dermal and inhalation routes. The carcinogenicity classification for butralin has been not determined.
