The EPA said it continues to evaluate peer reviewed data and information on the health effects of atrazine and
simazine, another dangerous herbicide.
(2013) approach the use of nanofiltration for the removal of various pollutants in water, including pesticides, such as diuron,
simazine, atrazine, and isoproturon.
For example, pesticides were detected in water from agricultural areas of South Africa; in vitro bioassays of water samples revealed high estradiol equivalent (EEq) values in combination with the presence of atrazine,
simazine, and terbuthylazine (Dabrowski 2015).
For the experiment with 7 herbicides applied in pre-emergence, atrazine (D = 2500 g [ha.sup.-1]), atrazine + mesotrione (D = 1200 + 120 g [ha.sup.-1]), atrazine +
simazine (D = 250 + 250 g [ha.sup.-1]), isoxaflutole (D = 60 g [ha.sup.-1]), pendimenthalin (D = 1500 g [ha.sup.-1]), trifluralin (D = 2400 g [ha.sup.-1]) e s-metolachlor (D = 1400 g [ha.sup.-1]) were evaluted.

is also known to degrade the insecticides such as chlorpyrifos and methyl parathion (22) and it is also active on triazine weedicides viz.,
simazine, terbutryn, cyanazine, and prometon (23).
These include Diruon, Solicam and
Simazine. A third group is comprised of pesticides research has indicated may act as reproductive toxins in humans exposed to high levels.
There are some chemicals, atrazine,
simazine, chlorprophame, and propyzamide, that control dodder, but at present, the possibility of a chemical control is limited, and only some herbicides, such as imazethaphyr and imazamox, are recommended (MFAL, 2009).

In this method, 1 L of continental water, spiked with 5 [micro]L of anthracene deuterated (10 ng [micro][L.sup.-1]) as surrogate, is employed to determine the selected organochlorine pesticides (p,p'-DDD, o,p'-DDD, p,p'-DDE, o,p'-DDE, p,p'-DDT, o,p'-DDT, [ALPHA]-HCH, [beta]-HCH, [gamma]-HCH, atrazine,
simazine, metolachlor, terbuthylazine, aldrin, dieldrin, endrin, isodrin, and hexachlorobenzene).
Other studies reported how environmental estrogens (Filby et al., 2007), hydroxylated fullerenes (Jovanovic et al., 2011a), and titanium dioxide (Jovanovic et al., 2011c) affect the ability of fathead minnows (Pimephales promelas) to mount an immune response; how herbicides, including atrazine,
simazine, diuron, and isoproturon, suppress immune function in goldfish (Carassius auratus) (Fatima et al., 2007); and how arsenic administered to killifish disrupts the function of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator, a known mediator of innate immunity (Bomberger et al., 2012; Shaw et al., 2010; Stanton et al., 2006).
