Diquat-d8 (dibromide)

Diquat-d8 dibromide is a deuterium labeled Diquat dibromide (HY-122984) . Diquat dibromide is a comprehensive herbicide. Diquat dibromide increases the production of ROS and triggers mitochondrial Autophagy. Diquat dibromide generates free radicals such as superoxide anions through redox cycles, which induce oxidative stress. Diquat dibromide is cytotoxic, reproductive, and neurotoxic. Diquat dibromide is used in cotton, soybean, and other crops to combat noxious weeds[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8].
