compound introduction
Diethofencarb is a systemic, phenyl-carbamate fungicide, used for the control of gray mold on fruits and vegetables. Its mode of action involves the inhibition of phospholipids and fatty acid biosynthesis in pathogens. Diethofencarb may be used as an analytical reference standard for the determination of the analyte in peel and pulp of apples using dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction, followed by high-performance liquid chromatography with diode-array detection (HPLC-DAD).
