Because of concerns about its carcinogenicity, the use of nitrofen has been banned in the European Union〔(Banned pesticide in German grain ), Pesticides News No. 57, September 2002, page 22〕 and in the United States since 1996.〔(Nitrofen data sheet ), INCHEM WHO/FAO report, July 1996.〕 In 2002 Nitrofen was detected in organic feed, organic eggs, and organic poultry products in Germany prompting a scandal which caused a decline in all organic meat sales in Europe to slip.〔(Nitrofen scandal causes organic meat sales to dip ), Just Food, October 2, 2002.〕〔(Organic scandal halts Germany's green revolution ), by John Hooper, The Guardian, June 12, 2002.〕 Nitrofen is listed as an IARC Group 2B carcinogen, meaning it is "possibly carcinogenic to humans".〔(IARC Monographs - Classifications - by Group )〕 ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Nitrofen」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
