Pesticides

Pesticides are chemicals used to kill or control pests. They are commonly used in agriculture, forestry, along roads and railroads, on park and golf courses, on lawns and gardens, in homes and other buildings, and on pets. For this study, we tested drinking water samples for 82 different pesticides and pesticide-related chemicals.

Below is a list of the 82 pesticides and pesticide-related chemicals that we tested for in this study.
2-Chloro-4-isopropylamino-6-amino-s-triazine {CIAT} (deethylatrazine) 2-Chloro-6-ethylamino-4-amino-s-triazine {CEAT} (deisopropylatrazine) 2-Hydroxy-4-isopropylamino-6-amino-s-triazine {IOIAT} (deethylhydroxyatrazine)
2-Hydroxy-4-isopropylamino-6-amino-s-triazine {IOIAT} (deethylhydroxyatrazine) 1H-1,2,4-Triazole 2,4-D
2-Chloro-4,6-diamino-s-triazine {CAAT} (Didealkylatrazine) 3-Phenoxybenzoic acid 4-Hydroxychlorothalonil Acephate Acetochlor Acetochlor oxanilic acid Acephate Acetochlor sulfonic acid Azoxystrobin Bentazon Bromacil Bromoxynil Carbaryl Carbendazim Chlorimuron-ethyl Chlorpyrifos cis-Bifenthrin acid/cis-Cyhalothrin acid/cis-Tefluthrin acid cis-Permethrin Dechlorometolachlor Desulfinylfipronil Diazinon Dicamba Dichlorvos Dicrotophos Diflubenzuron Diketonitrile-isoxaflutole Dimethenamid Dimethoate Diuron Ethoprophosd Etoxazole Fipronil Fipronil amide Fipronil sulfide Fipronil sulfone Fluometuron Halosulfuron-methyl Hexazinone Hydroxymetolachlor Hydroxysimazine Imazethapyr Imidacloprid Linuron Malathion Metalaxyl Metconazole Methamidophos Methomyl Methoxyfenozide Metolachlor Metolachlor oxanilic acid Metolachlor sulfonic acid Metribuzin Myclobutanil N-(3,4-Dichlorophenyl)-N'-methylurea Oryzalin Piperonyl butoxide Prometon Propazine Propiconazole Propoxur Pyraclostrobine Simazine Sulfentrazone Sulfometuron-methyle Tebuconazole Tebupirimphos Tebuthiuron Terbufose Terbufos sulfone Terbufos sulfoxide Tetraconazole Thiobencarb Trans-Permethrin Triclopyr Trifloxystrobin
