Description

Glyphosate-(Phosphonomethyl-2-14C) Sodium Salt is a carbon-14 radiolabeled analog of the widely used herbicide glyphosate. This compound is essential 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, contract research organizations (CROs), and academic institutions focused on plant science and environmental chemistry.

Application

• Metabolism Studies: Tracing the absorption, translocation, and metabolic pathways of glyphosate in plants and soil.
• Environmental Fate Research: Investigating the degradation, persistence, and mobility of glyphosate in various environmental matrices.
• Residue Analysis: Serving as an internal standard or tracer in analytical method development and validation for glyphosate residue quantification.
• Mode of Action Research: Studying the biochemical inhibition of the EPSPS enzyme in target and non-target organisms.
• Regulatory Submissions: Generating data required for product registration and safety assessments with global agencies (e.g., EPA, EFSA).
• Dermal & Occupational Exposure Studies: Assessing human and environmental exposure risks in agricultural settings.

Quality Control

Every batch of our radiolabeled compounds is manufactured and tested to meet stringent specifications for chemical and radiochemical purity. Our quality assurance protocols ensure compliance with the high standards required for scientific research. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with each shipment, detailing specific activity, radiochemical purity (typically >97% by HPLC), chemical purity, and solvent composition.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store at 2-8°C. This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and should be handled under appropriate conditions to maintain stability. For long-term storage, keep the container in a designated, well-ventilated area for radioactive materials.
