Description

Alachlor-Ring-Ul-14C is a carbon-14 radiolabeled analog of the widely used chloroacetamide herbicide, alachlor. This compound is an essential tool for conducting advanced metabolism, environmental fate, and residue studies in agricultural and environmental research. It is specifically designed for researchers and analytical laboratories requiring high-specific-activity tracers for precise detection and quantification. The product is critical for applications in agrochemical development, regulatory compliance testing, and environmental monitoring.

Application

• Metabolism Studies: Tracing the metabolic pathways and degradation products of alachlor in plants, animals, and soil systems.
• Environmental Fate Research: Investigating the adsorption, leaching, persistence, and biodegradation of alachlor in various environmental matrices.
• Residue Analysis: Serving as an internal standard or tracer in the development and validation of sensitive analytical methods (e.g., LC-MS/MS) for alachlor residue quantification.
• Toxicokinetic Studies: Examining the absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) profile of alachlor in biological systems.
• Agrochemical R&D: Supporting the development of new formulations or the assessment of alachlor's behavior under different agricultural conditions.
• Regulatory Submissions: Providing critical data required for the registration and re-registration of pesticide products with global regulatory bodies (e.g., EPA, EFSA).
