Product Specifications
UNSPSC Description
Linuron is a phenylurea herbicide that is widely used to control the growth of grass and weeds in various agriculture crops and in orchards. Linuron is a photosystem II inhibitor. Linuron is also a competitive androgen receptor (AR) antagonist with a Ki of 100 μM. Linuron shows reproductive toxicity in animals that acts as an endocrine disruptor[1][2][3][4].
