| | FOSAMINE AMMONIUM Usage And Synthesis |
| Uses | FOSAMINE AMMONIUM used to control many woody and brush species on noncrop land
| | Safety Profile | Mildly toxic by ingestion andinhalation. When heated todecomposition it emits very toxic fumes of NOx, POx, andNH3. | | Environmental Fate | Soil. Fosamine is rapidly degraded to carbon dioxide by microorganisms in soil (Humburg et al., 1989). The reported half-life in soil is approximately 7 to 10 days (Hartley and Kidd, 1987; Worthing and Hance, 1991).
Plant. After a 2.5% application to multi?ora rose plant leaves, 19, 21, 22, and 43% of the applied amount was absorbed after 1, 4, 8, 16 and 32 days, respectively (Mann et al., 1986). Degrades rapidly in plants with a half-life of 2 to 3 weeks (H
Chemical/Physical. Fosamine-ammonium is stable as a dilute solution but decomposes in weak acidic media (Worthing and Hance, 1991), probably forming water-soluble salts.
