Ethofumesate Ethyl-d5 (Cat No.:C000655) is a deuterium-labeled derivative of ethofumesate, a herbicide used to control grass and broadleaf weeds in various crops. Deuterium substitution enhances molecular stability and provides a labeled version for research purposes. Ethofumesate disrupts plant cell division and growth by inhibiting the enzyme p-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD). The deuterium labeling allows for precise tracking and analysis, contributing to a deeper understanding of ethofumesate’s mode of action and its potential applications in weed management strategies.
