Roles Classification
Chemical Role:
persistent organic pollutant  Any environmental contaminant that is resistant to environmental degradation through photolytic, biological or chemical processes. Such substances can have significant impact on health and the environment, as they persist in the environment, bioaccumulate in animal tissue and so biomagnify in food chains.
Biological Roles:
fungicide  A substance used to destroy fungal pests.
antibacterial agent  A substance (or active part thereof) that kills or slows the growth of bacteria.
Applications:
agrochemical  An agrochemical is a substance that is used in agriculture or horticulture.
rodenticide  A substance used to destroy rodent pests.
pediculicide  Substance used to treat lice (genus Pediculus) infestation.
fungicide  A substance used to destroy fungal pests.
insecticide  Strictly, a substance intended to kill members of the class Insecta. In common usage, any substance used for preventing, destroying, repelling or controlling insects.
pesticide  Strictly, a substance intended to kill pests. In common usage, any substance used for controlling, preventing, or destroying animal, microbiological or plant pests.
pesticide  Strictly, a substance intended to kill pests. In common usage, any substance used for controlling, preventing, or destroying animal, microbiological or plant pests.
