General description: | 2-Phenylethyl isothiocyanate (2-PE ITC) is a bioactive isothiocyanate mainly found in Brassica vegetables. It is produced by the enzymatic hydrolysis of 2-phenylethyl glucosinolate. 2-PE ITC is the main compound responsible for the nematicidal effect of Brassica root tissues against (Pratylenchus neglectus Filipjev), a root-lesion nematode. This ability makes it a promising candidate for the development of soil fumigants. |
