Cover Story: The field occurrence, pharmacokinetic metabolism and terminal magnitudes of fluxapyroxad were elucidated in peanut crops after nationwide applications, as reflected by the original deposition of 8.41–38.15 mg/kg, half–lives of 2.5–8.6 d, and final concentrations of 0.004–37.38 mg/kg. Fluxapyroxad was demethylated to M700F008 (0.02–5.69 mg/kg) and further N–glycosylated to M700F048 (0.04–39.28 mg/kg). The acute risks of the total fluxapyroxad ranged from 0.006% to 0.012%, whereas the chronic risks were 0.415%–1.289% for population groups. The risk quotients for urban groups were significantly higher than those for rural groups and were both negatively correlated with the age of the population. The high-potential exposure risks of fluxapyroxad should be continuously emphasized to protect the human population from their hazardous effects. View this paper
