Description

Trifluralin-Ring-Ul-14C is a radiolabeled analog of the widely used pre-emergent herbicide trifluralin, specifically labeled with carbon-14 on the aromatic ring. This compound is an essential tool for conducting advanced metabolism, environmental fate, and residue studies with high precision and traceability. It is primarily required by agrochemical R&D laboratories, environmental testing facilities, and regulatory science organizations engaged in product development and compliance.

Application

• Metabolism Studies: Tracing the absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) pathways of trifluralin in plants, animals, and soil microorganisms.
• Environmental Fate Research: Investigating the degradation, persistence, leaching, and binding of trifluralin in various environmental matrices.
• Residue Analysis: Serving as an internal standard or tracer in analytical method development and validation for detecting trifluralin residues in crops, water, and soil.
• Regulatory Submissions: Generating data required for the registration and re-registration of trifluralin-containing products with global regulatory bodies (e.g., EPA, EFSA).
• Mechanistic Research: Studying the specific biochemical interactions and mode of action of trifluralin at the molecular level.

Quality Control

Every batch of Trifluralin-Ring-Ul-14C is produced and analyzed under strict quality control protocols to ensure isotopic and chemical purity, specific activity, and radiochemical stability. Our quality system emphasizes traceability and reproducibility for critical research applications. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing specific activity, radiochemical purity (typically >98% by HPLC), chemical purity, and solvent composition is provided with each shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store at recommended temperatures (typically 2-8°C or as specified on the COA) to maintain stability. This material is sensitive to strong acids and organic solvents; ensure appropriate handling to prevent decomposition. Follow all applicable radiation safety and laboratory guidelines for the storage and use of radiolabeled compounds.
