Description

Glyphosate-(Glycine-2-14C) CAS NO 130538-97-5 is a carbon-14 radiolabeled analog of the widely used herbicide glyphosate, specifically labeled at the second carbon of the glycine moiety. This compound is an essential tool for conducting advanced metabolism, environmental fate, and residue studies, providing critical data for regulatory submissions and scientific research. It is primarily required by agrochemical R&D laboratories, environmental testing facilities, and academic institutions focused on plant science and herbicide toxicology.

Application

• Metabolism and Degradation Studies: Tracing the metabolic pathways and breakdown products of glyphosate in plants, soil, and water systems.
• Environmental Fate Research: Investigating the adsorption, leaching, and persistence of glyphosate in various environmental compartments.
• Residue Analysis: Quantifying glyphosate residues in crops, food products, and environmental samples for safety assessment.
• Mechanistic Toxicology: Studying the biochemical mode of action and non-target organism effects of glyphosate.
• Regulatory Support: Generating data required for the registration, re-registration, and compliance of glyphosate-based products with global agencies (e.g., EPA, EFSA).
• Analytical Method Development: Serving as an internal standard or tracer in the development and validation of sensitive LC-MS/MS or radio-HPLC methods.
