Usage

Description

Bensulfuron is an N-sulfonylurea herbicide that features a urea core with a unique substitution pattern. One nitrogen atom is attached to an (o-carboxybenzyl)sulfonyl group, while the other nitrogen is connected to a 4,6-dimethoxypyrimidin-2-yl group. This chemical structure endows Bensulfuron with potent activity as an acetolactate synthase inhibitor, which is crucial for its herbicidal properties.

Uses

Used in Agricultural Industry:
Bensulfuron is used as a herbicide for the control of a variety of both annual and perennial weeds in crops. Its effectiveness is particularly notable in the cultivation of wheat and rice, where it helps to maintain crop health and productivity by reducing weed competition.
Additionally, Bensulfuron is often applied in the form of its methyl ester, bensulfuron-methyl, which offers enhanced stability and targeted action against unwanted plant species. This selective herbicidal action is valuable for farmers seeking to protect their crops while minimizing environmental impact.

Development of an immunoassay for the residues of the herbicide bensulfuron-methyl.

To develop a competitive indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay based on polyclonal antibodies for the detection of the sulfonylurea herbicide bensulfuron-methyl, seven structurally related haptens were synthesized. Four of them mimicking the target analyte were conjugated to keyhole limpet hemocyanin by the N-hydroxysuccinimide activated ester method to use as immunogens, and all of them were conjugated to bovine serum albumin to use as plate-coating antigens. Polyclonal antibodies raised in rabbits and the coating antigens were screened and selected for the assay in simple homologous and heterologous ELISA formats. Three sensitive heterologous ELISAs were selected and optimized, showing the average IC(50) values of bensulfuron-methyl as low as 0.17, 0.09, and 0.09 ng/mL, the detection ranges of 0.04-0.60, 0.01-0.60, and 0.04-0.25 ng/mL, and the lowest detection limits of 0.03, 0.002, and 0.03 ng/mL, respectively. The cross-reactivities of other sulfonylurea herbicides and metabolites of bensulfuron-methyl to the antibodies were less than 15% in the two assays. Recoveries from the analyte-fortified water samples in assay I were in the range of 81-125% by simple dilution. The correlation between the ELISA and HPLC was 0.999 (n = 15) with a slope of 1.37 in the analysis of groundwater samples fortified with bensulfuron-methyl. The results obtained strongly indicate that the ELISA can be a highly sensitive and convenient tool for detecting bensulfuron-methyl residues in agricultural and environmental samples.
