Conventional formulation of metribuzin (Sencor® 480), technical metribuzin (95% purity), and 14C-metribuzin (98% purity and 2.3 Bq mg−1 of specific activity, American Radiolabeled Chemicals, Inc., St. Louis, MO, USA) and Scintillation solution (Ultima Gold, PerkinElmer, Waltham, MA, USA) were used in the studies. In nanoparticle preparation, caprylic/capric triglyceride (Myritol 318) was purchased from Basf (Basf Co. Ltd., São Paulo, SP, Brazil), poly-ε-caprolactone (PCL) (Mn∼80,000 Da), polysorbate 80 (Mn∼1310 Da), and sorbitane monostearate (Mw = 430.63 g mol−1) were purchased from Sigma Aldrich (Sigma-Aldrich, Chem. Co., St. Louis, MO, USA). Soil samples were collected in Paraná and São Paulo State and organic residues were collected in agricultural areas.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
