Product Information
Glyphosate is an organophosphorus compound that inhibits the enzyme EPSP synthase, which is involved in the synthesis of three amino acids: tryptophan, tyrosine, and phenylalanine. It also inhibits other enzymes such as 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase (EPSPS) and chorismate synthase. The analytical method for determining glyphosate uses a chromatographic technique to separate the glyphosate from other compounds. Glyphosate is used in many fields such as in agriculture, forestry, urban development, and weed control. It can enter wastewater streams through runoff or spray drift or be released into surface waters after application onto land. The presence of glyphosate has been detected globally in water bodies and it has been detected at varying concentrations in different regions of the world.
Glyphosate is applied to crops by spraying them with a nutrient solution containing glyphosate. This process requires sample preparation steps that include
