Modern Crop Protection Compounds

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

A one-stop reference written by first-class authors from leading companies. In two volumes it addresses all important aspects, from the history to the mode of action, from the effects on the organism to major commercial products and industrial synthesis.

This one-stop reference for everyone working in the agrochemical business is written from a truly international industrial perspective, with first-class authors from leading companies, including Bayer, Dow, Syngenta and BASF. In two volumes it addresses all important aspects, from the history to the mode of action, from the effects on the organism to major commercial products and industrial synthesis. A series of special chapters cover such hot topics as high throughput screening in modern agrochemical research, the role of fluorine, and consequences for modern drug design.
A comprehensive source of top quality information.

The Unique Role of Halogene Substituents in the Design of Modern Crop Protection

The increase in agricultural productivity has been and continues to be generated by the use of chemicals. This is achieved by assisting growth using artificial fertilizers and plant growth regulators that replace the nutrients in the soil extracted by plants as they grow, as well as by minimizing attacks by pests on crops by way of repellent chemicals.
This one-stop reference for everyone working in the agrochemical business is written from a truly international industrial perspective, with first-class authors from such leading companies as Bayer, Dow, Syngenta and BASF. In two volumes it addresses all important aspects, from the history to the mode of action, from the effects on the organism to major commercial products and industrial synthesis. Following an introduction, individual sections cover herbicides, fungicides, insecticides and new research methods. A series of special chapters cover hot topics such as high throughput screening in modern agrochemical research, the role of fluorine, and consequences for modern drug design.
A comprehensive source of top quality information.

Autorenporträt

Wolfgang Krämer gained his PhD in organic chemistry from the TU Stuttgart in 1968, after which he joined the Institute of Textile Chemistry at Stuttgart University, before moving to Bayer Plant Protection as lab leader in plant protection research in 1970. Between 1984 and 1990 he was Head of Global Chemistry Fungicides, and that of Insecticides until 2002. Retired since January 2005, Dr. Krämer has over 250 patent applications and publications to his name.

Ulrich Schirmer gained his PhD in organic chemistry from Stuttgart University in 1973, and subsequently carried out his postdoc at Paris-Orsay. He joined BASF in 1974, eventually becoming Senior Vice President responsible for plant protection research for chemical synthesis, process development and biological RD. Dr. Schirmer has over 100 patent applications and publications to his name. Since 2003, he has been working as a freelance consultant to start-ups in the fields of biotechnology, chemistry and agriculture.
