Testing the RangerPro herbicide with the ToxTracker assay for a mechanistic insight into the toxicity

In a recent publication by Mesnage et al, all the pesticide ingredients in the US glyphosate-based herbicides(GBHs) RangerPro were tested for toxicity. The ToxTracker assay identified the toxicity resulting from RangerPro exposure as multifactorial, involving ER stress caused by a polyoxyethylene tallow amine, POE-15, along with oxidative stress caused by glyphosate.
