CAS 118712-89-3: Transfluthrin
Description:Transfluthrin is a synthetic pyrethroid insecticide known for its effectiveness in controlling a variety of pests. It is characterized by its low toxicity to mammals and its rapid knockdown effect on insects, making it suitable for indoor and outdoor use. Transfluthrin is typically used in formulations for household insecticides, mosquito repellents, and agricultural applications. The substance is a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a faint odor, and it is relatively stable under normal conditions. Its mode of action involves disrupting the nervous system of insects, leading to paralysis and death. Transfluthrin is also notable for its volatility, which allows it to disperse quickly in the environment, enhancing its efficacy as a vapor insecticide. However, it is important to handle it with care, as with all pesticides, to minimize potential environmental impact and ensure safety for non-target organisms. Its environmental persistence is moderate, and it is subject to regulations regarding its use and application in various settings.
