Dinoseb

A pungent-smelling organic solid that is mainly used as herbicide and insecticide, primarily for soybean, fruits, nuts and vegetable crops. It generally makes its way into water supplies through runoff from these herbicides. Ingestion of the chemical through long periods of time can result in loss of body and thyroid weight, damage to testes and thickening of the intestinal lining.
