Amicarbazone Inhibitor

Amicarbazone(BAY-MKH3586; BAY314666) is a potent inhibitor of photosynthetic electron transport via binding to the Qb domain of photosystem II (PSII); herbicide with a broad spectrum of weed control. Its efficacy as both a foliar- and root-applied herbicide suggests that absorption and translocation of this compound is very rapid. As a result, its efficacy is susceptible to the most common form of resistance to PSII inhibitors. IC50 value: Target: PSII inhibitor The phenotypic responses of sensitive plants exposed to amicarbazone include chlorosis, stunted growth, tissue necrosis, and death. Nonetheless, amicarbazone has a good selectivity profile and is a more potent herbicide than atrazine, which enables its use at lower rates than those of traditional photosynthetic inhibitors.

Small volumes of Amicarbazone, inhibitor vial(s) may occasionally become entrapped in the seal of the product vial during shipment and storage. If necessary, briefly centrifuge the vial on a tabletop centrifuge to dislodge any liquid in the container`s cap. Certain products may require to ship with dry ice and additional dry ice fee may apply.

MBS5754510 is an inhibitor targeting Amicarbazone.
