Simetryn 西草净
Introduction: Simetryn is a triazine herbicide that is primarily used to control broad-leaved weeds and grass in paddy rice and other crops. It is absorbed through roots and foliage and inhibits photosynthesis. Like other triazine herbicides, simetryn is characterized by high persistence and toxicity.

ENVIRONMENTAL FATE
Animals: DT50 in rats c. 10 h. Excreted in urine and faeces; two oxidative metabolic pathways. Plants: Selectivity and metabolism of simetryn reviewed.
Usage: Simetryn was introduced by Ciba-Geigy AG (now Syngenta AG). It is a triazine herbicide mainly used for broad-leaved weed and grass control in paddy rice and other crops.
Application: Biochemistry: Photosynthetic electron transport inhibitor at the photosystem II receptor site. Mode of action: Selective herbicide. Uses: Used in combination with thiobencarb to control broad-leaved weeds in rice.
