description Product Description
Dhurrin is primarily utilized in agricultural research and practices due to its role as a cyanogenic glucoside. It is found in certain plants, such as sorghum, where it acts as a natural defense mechanism against herbivores and pests. When plant tissues containing dhurrin are damaged, the compound breaks down to release hydrogen cyanide, which is toxic to many organisms. This property makes dhurrin an important focus in studies aimed at improving crop resistance to pests and environmental stress. Additionally, understanding dhurrin's biosynthesis and degradation pathways can help in developing safer and more sustainable agricultural practices, particularly in regions where sorghum is a staple crop. Research on dhurrin also contributes to the broader field of plant biochemistry, aiding in the exploration of other cyanogenic compounds and their potential applications.
