introduction | pyrethroid insecticide developed by sumitomo chemical company of Japan (common name: imiprothrin, product name: Pralle, killing mine, strong power). The industrial product is an amber viscous liquid with a slightly sweet taste. |
toxicity | acute oral LD50: 1800 mg/kg for male rats and 900 mg/kg for female rats; Acute percutaneous LD50> 2000 mg/kg for male rats and female rats. No irritation to rabbit skin and eyes. No sensitization to skin (guinea pig); Inhalation toxicity LC50(4h)> 1200mg/m3 in male and female rats; NOEL value of rats (13 weeks) 100mg/kg (feed);Ames test showed that the agent had no mutagenic effect. Toxicity grade EPA (preparation) Ⅲ. |
mechanism of action | the agent acts on the insect nervous system, disrupts neuronal function and kills pests by interacting with sodium ion channels. The most prominent feature is the quick effect on sanitary pests, that is, when sanitary pests come into contact with the liquid medicine, they will be knocked down immediately, especially for cockroaches. Its knockout effect is higher than that of traditional pyrethroids such as tethrin (10 times that of tethrin) and Yidok (4 times that of Yidok). |
Application | When acetylmethrin is used alone, the insecticidal activity is not high. When mixed with other pyrethroid lethal agents (such as phenethrin, phenethrin, permethrin, cypermethrin, etc.), it can greatly improve its insecticidal activity. It is the preferred raw material in high-grade aerosol formulations. It can be used as a separate knockdown agent and used with lethal agent, usually in dosage of 0.03% ~ 0.05%; individually used to 0.08% ~ 0.15%, it can be widely used in conjunction with commonly used pyrethroids, such as phenythrin, Permethrin, cypermethrin, Yidok, Yibitian, S-bio-propylene, etc. |
use | acetylmethrin is an analytical standard and is also used in the study of insect neurotoxins. This product is mainly used to control cockroaches, ants, silverfish, crickets, spiders and other pests, and has special effects on cockroaches. |
