Genotoxicity Assays Published since 2016 Shed New Light on the Oncogenic Potential of Glyphosate-Based Herbicides

By Charles Benbrook, Robin Mesnage and William Sawyer Agrochemicals 2023, 2(1), 47-68 https://www.mdpi.com/2813-3145/2/1/5 Abstract: Controversy over the oncogenicity of glyphosate-based herbicides (GBHs) persists seven years after a 2015 IARC Monograph classified glyphosate/GBHs as “probably carcinogenic” to humans. Most regulatory authorities have concluded that technical glyphosate poses little or no oncogenic risk via dietary exposure. The … Read more

Co-formulants of glyphosate herbicides are endocrine disruptors

PR 02/16 Co-formulants of glyphosate herbicides are endocrine disruptors In a new French-Hungarian study, the co-formulants of glyphosate herbicides are shown to be endocrine disruptors, i.e. to interfere with the human hormone system. Two ENSSER board members, Nicolas Defarge and András Székács, are involved in the study. Despite a great deal of scientific criticism pointing … Read more
