Class 9, [Environmentally hazardous Substance, solid, N.O.S. (Diafenthiuron)]

[ 80060-09-9], UN No.: 3077

Mammalian toxicity: WHO U, Unlikely to present acute hazard. Environmental toxicity: Diafenthiuron is degraded to yield its corresponding carbodiimide, which, in turn, react with nucleophiles like water and fatty acids to form urea and fatty acid. Diafenthiuron shows a complex metabolism pattern in all crops. Uptake of residue activity by plants from soil is low its main metabolites show a strong sorptivity to soil particles. It is very toxic for Birds and worms. It is highly toxic for fishes like Rainbow trout and Sheepshead minnows (because of rapid degradation to nontoxic metabolites, there is no significant hazard under field conditions) It is toxic for honeybees, no significant hazard under field condition.
