Applications Labelled Irgarol (I764100). Irgarol is a highly specific and effective inhibitor of photosynthesis. This makes it ideal, combined with its very low water solubility, for use in long-life antifouling coatings for marine applications to prevent the growth of algae. Not a dangerous good if item is equal to or less than 1g/ml and there is less than 100g/ml in the package References Okamura, H., et al.: J. Environ. Sci.

Irgarol-d9 is a hydrophilic compound that is used as a biocide in wastewater treatment. It is typically added to the water before the wastewater enters the plant and can be measured by spectrometric methods. The uptake of Irgarol-d9 by dry weight was found to be high, with values around 200 μg/g. This compound has been shown to have high values for triclosan and thiabendazole when tested using analytical methods, which indicate its potential use as a biocide in wastewater treatment.
