Application

4-Chlorophenoxyacetic acid has been used in para-chlorophenoxyacetic acid (p-CPA) residue assay.[1]
4-chlorophenoxy acetic acid (4-CPA), a chlorine derivative of phenoxyacetic acid (PA), is a plant growth regulator used as a herbicide.

Biochem/physiol Actions

4-Chlorophenoxyacetic acid is a synthetic auxin, that is used to induce parthenocarpic ovary growth on flowers of wild type plants.[2]

This work has synthesized a title complex using rare earth ion Eu3+ with the o-chlorophenoxyacetic acid and 2,2'-bipyridine. The chemical formula of the complex was determined to be Eu(o-ClC6H4OCH2COO)3.2,2'-bipy by elemental analysis, analysis of IR, UV, fluorescence spectra. The ternary

Intracellularly applied amphiphilic molecules, such as p-chlorophenoxy acetate (CPA) and octanoate, block various pore-open mutants of CLC-0. The voltage-dependent block of a particular pore-open mutant, E166G, was found to be multiphasic. In symmetrical 140 mM Cl(-), the apparent affinity of

The blockade of CLC-0 chloride channels by p-chlorophenoxy acetate (CPA) has been thought to be state dependent; the conformational change of the channel pore during the "fast gating" alters the CPA binding affinity. Here, we examine the mechanism of CPA
