Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Fluridone is an herbicide. It inhibits phytoene desaturase (Ki = 0.03 µM), an enzyme involved in carotenoid biosynthesis. Fluridone (50 and 100 µM) decreases β-carotene levels and induces accumulation of phytofluene and phytoene in T. aestivum seedlings grown in the dark. It reduces levels of the plant hormone abscisic acid in hydrated and dehydrated V. faba leaves when used at a concentration of 10 µM. Fluridone is cytotoxic to the cyanobacterium Anacystis nidulans (LC50 = 0.125 µM) and has acute toxicity against several species of invertebrates and fish (median LC50s = 4.3 and 10.4 mg/L, respectively). Formulations containing fluridone have been used as aquatic herbicides.
