Enantiomeric Analysis of Lactofen with RP-HPLC and Chemometrics

In a recent study, researchers utilized RP-HPLC–DAD and chemometrics to determine the enantiomeric composition of Lactofen, a potent herbicide classified as toxicity class I by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. Lactofen’s effectiveness in targeting broadleaf weeds stems primarily from its (S)-(+)-enantiomer, which is more active compared to the less effective or potentially harmful (R)-form found […]
