Cytotoxicity Mechanisms of Eight Major Herbicide Active Ingredients in Comparison to Their Commercial Formulations

Most research on plant protection products focuses on active ingredients, while co-formulants are generally considered non-toxic. To investigate the actual toxicity of these commercial formulations, S. Ferguson and colleagues at Kings College London researched 8 major herbicides using ToxTracker and several other assays.
