European scientists say weedkiller glyphosate unlikely to cause cancer

2015-11-13 02:39:50| Chemicals - Topix.net

Glyphosate is unlikely to cause cancer in humans, the European Food Safety Authority said on Thursday, and the agency proposed a higher limit on the daily amount of residue of the popular weed killer deemed safe if consumed. The EFSA advises EU policymakers and its conclusion could lead the 28-member European Union to renew approval for glyphosate, which was brought into use by Monsanto Co in the 1970s and is used in its top-selling product Roundup as well as in many other herbicides around the world.
