azinphos-ethyl

Description:
Azinphos-ethyl is an organophosphorus compound primarily used as an insecticide and acaricide in agricultural applications. It is characterized by its ability to inhibit acetylcholinesterase, an enzyme critical for the proper functioning of the nervous system in insects, leading to paralysis and death. The compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive odor. It is moderately soluble in water and more soluble in organic solvents, which facilitates its application in various formulations. Azinphos-ethyl is known for its effectiveness against a wide range of pests, but it is also associated with potential toxicity to non-target organisms, including humans and wildlife. Due to its environmental persistence and potential health risks, its use has been restricted or banned in several countries. Proper handling and application practices are essential to mitigate risks associated with exposure. As with many pesticides, safety measures, including personal protective equipment and adherence to regulatory guidelines, are crucial when working with azinphos-ethyl.
