General description

Acifluorfen is a photobleaching herbicide, used as selective preemergence and postemergence weed control in soybean, peanuts and legumes. It causes the photooxidative destruction of pigments and lipids in sensitive plant species.

Application

Acifluorfen may be used as a reference standard for the determination of aclonifen herbicide in water samples using high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with diode array tandem mass spectrometric detection.
