Forchlorfenuron

Description:
Forchlorfenuron, with the CAS number 68157-60-8, is a synthetic plant growth regulator belonging to the class of phenylureas. It is primarily used to promote cell division and elongation in plants, thereby enhancing fruit size and yield. Forchlorfenuron acts by inhibiting the activity of certain enzymes involved in the synthesis of ethylene, a hormone that regulates various aspects of plant growth and development. This compound is typically applied in agricultural practices to improve the quality of fruits and vegetables, particularly in crops like grapes and tomatoes. It is characterized by its relatively low toxicity to humans and animals, making it a preferred choice in horticulture. However, as with any chemical substance, proper handling and adherence to safety guidelines are essential to mitigate any potential environmental impacts. Its effectiveness and safety profile have led to its use in various countries, although regulatory approvals may vary. Overall, Forchlorfenuron represents an important tool in modern agriculture for enhancing crop productivity.
