Description

General description

Tecnazene is a sprouting inhibitor and protectant fungicide used on stored potatoes.[1] It is widely used in controlling rot fungus and molds. Its mode of action involves lipid peroxidation, which leads to the membrane structure and function being disrupted.[2][3]

Application

Refer to the product′s Certificate of Analysis for more information on a suitable instrument technique. Contact Technical Service for further support.

Tecnazene may be used as a reference standard for the determination of the analyte in fatty foods using gas chromatography with electron capture detection (GC-ECD).[4]
