I-L-glufosinate-ammonium yikhompawundi entsha ye-tripeptide esecaleni kwi-fermentation broth ye-Streptomyces hygroscopicus yi-Bayer. Le ngqungquthela iqulethwe ngamamolekyuli amabini e-L-alanine kunye nokwakheka kwe-amino acid engaziwayo kwaye inomsebenzi we-bactericidal. I-L-glufosinate-ammonium iyinxalenye yeqela le-phosphonic acid herbicides kwaye yabelana ngendlela yayo yokusebenza kunye ne-glufosinate-ammonium.

Ngokwezifundo zamva nje, ukusetyenziswa kakhulu kwe-glyphosate, i-herbicide ethengiswa kakhulu, kuye kwakhokelela ekuphuhliseni ukuchasana nokhula olufana ne-goosegrass, i-flyweed encinci, kunye ne-bindweed. I-International Cancer Research Institute idwelise i-glyphosate njengento enokwenzeka ye-carcinogen yomntu ukususela kwi-2015, kwaye izifundo zezilwanyana ezingapheliyo zibonise ukuba zinokunyusa iziganeko zesibindi kunye nezintso.

Ezi ndaba ziye zakhokelela kumazwe amaninzi, kuquka iFransi neJamani, ukuvala i-glyphosate, eyabangela ukwanda kokusetyenziswa kwe-herbicides engakhethiyo njenge-glufosinate-ammonium. Ngaphezu koko, ukuthengiswa kwe-glufosinate-ammonium kufikelele kwi-1.050 yeebhiliyoni zeedola ngo-2020, nto leyo eyenza ukuba ibe yeyona nto ikhula ngokukhawuleza engakhethiyo kwimarike.

I-L-glufosinate-ammonium ibonakalise ukuba isebenze ngakumbi kunomlingani wayo wendabuko, inamandla angaphezu kwamaxesha amabini. Ngaphaya koko, ukusetyenziswa kwe-L-glufosinate-ammonium kunciphisa ubungakanani besicelo nge-50%, ngaloo ndlela kuncitshiswa impembelelo yokulima kumafama kumthwalo wokusingqongileyo.

Umsebenzi womchiza wokutshabalalisa ukhula usebenza kwisityalo iglutamine synthetase ukuthintela ukuhlanganiswa kwe-L-glutamine, nto leyo ekhokelela ekuqokeleleni kwe-cytotoxic ammonium Ion, ukuphazamiseka kwemetabolism ye-ammonium, ukunqongophala kwe-amino acid, ukuqhekeka kwechlorophyll, inhibition yephotosynthesis, kunye nokufa kokhula.

Ukuqukumbela, i-L-glufosinate-ammonium herbicide ibonakalise ukuba yeyona ndlela isebenzayo kwi-glyphosate, ebijongene nemiba emininzi yolawulo ngenxa yeempawu zayo ezinokuthi zenzeke. Ukwamkelwa kwayo kunokunciphisa kakhulu ubungakanani besicelo kunye neempembelelo ezilandelayo kwimo engqongileyo ngelixa isabonelela ngokutshabalalisa ukhula olomeleleyo.
