Common NameImazapyr
DescriptionImazapyr belongs to the class of organic compounds known as alpha amino acids and derivatives. These are amino acids in which the amino group is attached to the carbon atom immediately adjacent to the carboxylate group (alpha carbon), or a derivative thereof. Imazapyr is a moderately basic compound (based on its pKa). Imazapyr is a non-selective herbicide for non-crop land applications which is particularly effective on hard-to-control perennial grasses. Its mode of action is non-selective and absorbed by foliage and rapidly translocated. Imazapyr is a potentially toxic compound. Additionally, imazapyr is used to control annual and perennial grass and broadleaved weeds, brush, vines and many deciduous trees. It is used to eliminate Lithocarpus densiflorus (Tan Oak) and Arbutus menziesii (Pacific Madrone). It controls vegetation by interfering with an enzyme pathway. In plants, imazapyr disrupts protein synthesis and interferes with cell growth and DNA synthesis. It accumulates in the meristem region (active growth region) of the plant. Imazapyr is absorbed by the leaves and roots, and moves rapidly through the plant. It is used for the control of a broad range of weeds including terrestrial annual and perennial grasses and broadleaved herbs, woody species, and riparian and emergent aquatic species. It inhibits acetolactate synthase. This compound has been identified in human blood as reported by (PMID: 31557052 ). Imazapyr is not a naturally occurring metabolite and is only found in those individuals exposed to this compound or its derivatives. Technically Imazapyr is part of the human exposome. The exposome can be defined as the collection of all the exposures of an individual in a lifetime and how those exposures relate to health. An individual's exposure begins before birth and includes insults from environmental and occupational sources.
