Cardiotoxicity of Forchlorfenuron (CPPU) in Zebrafish (Danio Rerio) and H9c2 Cardiomyocytes

open access: yesChemosphere, 2019
Forchlorfenuron (CPPU), as a plant growth regulator or herbicide/pesticide, is widely used in agriculture worldwide. It is adopted by most farmers due to its high efficacy for boosting size and improving the quality of fruit. However, CPPU was implicated in, and gained notoriety due to an incident of exploding watermelon that occurred in 2011 ...

Analysis and Residue Levels of Forchlorfenuron (CPPU) in Watermelons

Journal of Environmental Science and Health - Part B Pesticides, Food Contaminants, and Agricultural Wastes, 2007
This paper describes the application of liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS-MS) for analysis of residues of forchlorfenuron (CPPU), a new plant growth regulator, in watermelons, after a sample preparation step based on the buffered Quick, Easy, Cheap, Effective, Rugged and Safe extraction method. Analytical determinations were carried

The Use of CPPU for Efficient Propagation of Pineapple

Scientia Horticulturae, 2004
Abstract The use of forchlorfenuron (N-(2-chloro-4-pyridyl)-N′-phenylurea) (CPPU) for efficient propagation of pineapples was investigated. About 85% of axillary buds can be forced to sprout by soaking defoliated stem pieces (12 cm in length) in a 2.5 or 5.0 mg l−1 CPPU solution for more than 3 h.

Effects of CPPU on Fruit Set and Fruit Growth in Japanese Persimmon

Scientia Horticulturae, 1995
Abstract The effects of hand-pollination and spraying with N-(2-chloro-4-pyridyl)-N′-phenylurea (CPPU) on fruit set and fruit growth of ‘Matsumoto-Wase-Fuyu’, which is a member of the pollination-constant, non-astringent group of persimmons (PCNA) were investigated. Staminate flowers of pollinizers in the orchard were eliminated before anthesis. Hand-

Influence of CPPU on Carbohydrate Accumulation and Metabolism in Fruits of Actinidia deliciosa (a. Chev.)

open access: yesScientia Horticulturae, 1996
A trial was carried out to evaluate the influence of N-(2-chloro-4-pyridyl)-N'-phenylurea (CPPU), a diphenylurea derivative cytokinin,- on kiwi productivity, on carbohydrate accumulation and metabolism and on post-harvest fruit performance. CPPU (20 ppm)

Effects of CPPU and 1-MCP on the storage ability of ‘Hayward’ kiwifruit

Acta Horticulturae, 2022
Kiwifruit cultivation is increasing in Turkey. For a profitable industry, it is important to produce high-quality fruit and maintain that quality after harvest. The growth regulator CPPU (N1-(2-chloro-4-pyridyl)-N3-phenylurea) is widely used to increase fruit size, while ethylene action inhibitor 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) is applied to slow down the

CPPU control of fruit morphogenesis in apple

Scientia Horticulturae, 1993
Abstract CPPU, a cytokinin-like substance derived from phenylurea, was applied to shoots, fruits, and to shoots + fruits of mature trees of apple cultivars ‘Golden Delicious’ clone B and ‘Red Delicious’ clone Clear Red 25 days after full bloom. While no influence on fruit morphogenesis was detected for the shoot only treatment, the fruit only and ...

CPPU application on size and quality of hardy kiwifruit

Scientia Horticulturae, 2006
Abstract For the purpose of determining the appropriate conditions of application to increase the size of a hardy kiwifruit, Actinidia arguta ‘Mitsuko’, N1-(2-chloro-4-pyridyl)-N3-phenylurea (CPPU) was applied at three different growth stages of the crop: at petal fall, 10 and 25 days after petal fall (DAPF), and three different concentrations: 1, 5 ...

Rabbiteye Blueberry Field Trials with the Growth Regulator CPPU

Small Fruits Review, 2004
SUMMARY The growth regulator CPPU [N-(2-chloro-4-pyridyl)-N′-phenylurea] has recently been shown to increase both fruit set and berry size in rabbiteye blueberries (Vaccinium ashei Reade) in Experiment Station research plots. In order to validate these findings, several field experiments were conducted during 2001 and 2002 on commercial farms across ...
