In plants Imazapyr inhibit the production of branched chain amino acids three branched-chain aliphatic amino acids valine, leucine, and isoleucine. Because animals do not synthesize branched-chained aliphatic amino acids but obtain them from their diet, the interruption of protein synthesis is not generally relevant to birds, mammals, fish, or invertebrates.
After oral administration with imazapyr technical, no signs of toxicity were observed in rats (The acute oral LD50 (lethal dose causing mortality in 50 percent of test population) of unformulated imazapyr is greater than 5,000 mg/kg). However, decreased activity was observed in both rats and mice . . .
