Extract

The absorption and translocation of 2,4-D (2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid) has been extensively studied by numerous investigators and a number of reviews have been written (3, 7, 8). The methods used in these studies have been critically evaluated (1, 5, 8) and the general conclusion is that in the study of the absorption and translocation of biologically unstable organic compounds, such compounds should be isolated and identified.
