8-hydroxyquinoline |
(Also known as: 8-hydroxychinoline; hydroxybenzopyridine; quinophenol; 1-azanaphthalene-8-ol; HQ; oxyquinoline; oxyquinoleine) |
SUMMARY |
A fungicide with applications mainly in horticulture. It has a high aqueous solubility, moderate volatility and a low risk of leaching to groundwater. It is not persistent in soil systems but may be persistent in aqueous systems under some conditions. It has a moderate oral rat toxicity and may have some negative impacts on human health. it is a potential mutagen and may cause damage to reproduction and development. It is toxic to birds and moderately toxic to most aquatic life, honeybees and earthworms. |
