Inhibition of the general soil microbial community by allyl-isothiocyanate and benzyl-isothiocyanate
BIOS, 2015Abstract. Invasion of Alliaria petiolata (garlic mustard) has become increasingly problematic, as it has disrupted the native ecosystem of the forest understory throughout most of the United States. A key element of garlic mustard invasion is the production of two compounds that have been shown to be inhibitory at relatively low concentrations, allyl ...

Degradation and sorption of 2-propenyl and benzyl isothiocyanate in soil
Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, 2009Abstract Isothiocyanates of natural origin produced by the hydrolysis of plant-produced glucosinolates have the potential to control soil pests, but getting sufficiently high isothiocyanate concentrations in soil is difficult. Furthermore, the isothiocyanates have proven toxic to a wide range of organisms and hence may also harm ...

Structural and Electronic Properties of Benzyl Isothiocyanate Films
LangmuirBenzyl isothiocyanate (BITC) is an aromatic isothiocyanate that exhibits antimicrobial effects, shows promise as an antivirulence compound, and can be encapsulated in nanoparticles for drug delivery. Despite the use of BITC in the condensed phase for biological applications, little structural or electronic information is understood for BITC films nor ...

Physicochemical and Enzymatic Properties of Benzyl Isothiocyanate Derivatized Proteinases
Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 1998This paper deals with interactions of benzyl isothiocyanate (benzyl-ITC) with cysteine proteases (bromelain and papain) as well as with serine proteases (trypsin and α-chymotrypsin).

Subacute oral toxicity study of benzyl isothiocyanate in rats
Food / Nahrung, 1992AbstractThe subacute toxicity of benzyl isothiocyanate (BITC) was investigated in male rats given oral doses of 0, 50, 100 and 200 mg/kg body weight/day for 4 weeks. Body weight gain and food consumption were decreased with increasing doses of BITC. Haematological changes of toxicological relevance were observed in the highest dose group.

Formation and Degradation Kinetics of the Biofumigant Benzyl Isothiocyanate in Soil
Environmental Science & Technology, 2007Glucosinolates (GSLs) are produced by plants of the Capparales order. Upon enzymatic hydrolysis the GSLs can be transformed to the toxic isothiocyanates (ITCs), which can be used as biofumigants for the control of soil-borne pests. The rates of ITC formation and degradation are critical to both biofumigation and the toxicity and leaching of GSLs and ...

Decline in Phytotoxicity of Benzyl Isothiocyanate Formulated as Granules
Weed Science, 1986Benzyl isothiocyanate (BITC) was formulated in dry granules with tung oil and calcareous loess to facilitate safe handling of the water-sensitive lachrymator. Crop and weed seeds were exposed to granular BITC at 40 mg ai/kg (w/w) substrate on moist sand for 2 days.
