Herbicide2
  • citation needed] The most common herbicide used was Herbicide Orange, more commonly referred to as Agent Orange: a fifty-fifty mixture of two herbicides 2,4-D (2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid) and 2,4,5-T (2,4,5-trichlorophenoxyacetic acid) manufactured for the U.S. Department of Defense primarily by Monsanto Corporation and Dow Chemical. (wikipedia.org)
  • From 1962 to 1987, 2,4,5T herbicide had been manufactured at an Ivon Watkins-Dow plant in New Plymouth for domestic use, however it has not been proven that the herbicide had been exported for use by the U.S military in Vietnam. (wikipedia.org)
Liquid3
  • A liquid sample of 2,4-D-TIPA salt was obtained from DowElanco, Midland, MI. (europa.eu)
  • The test material was also characterized by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and found to be 38.7 +/- 0.1% 2,4-D (acid equivalents) or 72.2 +/-0.2% 2,4-D TIPA salt at the 95% confidence level. (europa.eu)
  • Following collection, the weight of the 14CO2 trap solution was determined, and a weighed aliquot of the trap solution was mixed with liquid scintillation fluid (12% SPECTRAFLUOR: 22% 1-methoxy-2-propanol: 66% toluene) and analyzed for radioactivity. (europa.eu)
