Book Description
This title was first published in 2000: Pesticides and other agricultural chemicals are in use in virtually every country in the world. It is therefore useful and important to those involved with these chemicals to have a collection of data concerning the substances most commonly used for agricultural purposes. This Handbook includes data on over 1,800 substances, including a number of mixtures, which are important in agriculture. Almost all records describing pure chemicals carry the appropriate CAS Registry Number and the associated EINECS Number. All chemicals in this edition which also appear in the twelfth edition of the Merck Index have the Merck Index Number provided. Wherever possible, the following information is also provided for each entry: definitions, classifications, chemical composition, functions, applications, suppliers, melting point, boiling point, density or specific gravity, refractive index, optical rotation, ultraviolet absorption, solubility, and acute toxicity.

Book Description
The 2000 Ashgate Handbook of Pesticides and Agricultural Chemicals is here extensively revised. It focuses on the primary chemical substances that make up pesticide formulations used today mainly in agricultural and public health environments, as well as those no longer in use. Commonly applied bactericides and some recently developed pesticides have been added, and their current status with US Environmental Protection Agency identified. The 1,844 unique chemical entities are presented in 17 functional categories such as acaricides, animal repellants, fungicides, herbicides, mulluscicides, plant growth regulators, safeners, and miscellaneous chemicals. A directory of manufacturers and suppliers is appended. CAS Registry and EINECS numbers, and names and synonyms are indexed. Annotation : 2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com).
