CAS 52645-53-1: Permethrin
Description:Permethrin is a synthetic pyrethroid insecticide widely used for its effectiveness in controlling a variety of pests, including mosquitoes, ticks, and agricultural insects. It is characterized by its ability to disrupt the nervous system of insects, leading to paralysis and death. Permethrin is known for its stability and low toxicity to mammals, making it a popular choice for both agricultural and household applications. It is often used in treated clothing, bedding, and outdoor gear to provide long-lasting protection against insect bites. The substance is typically applied in formulations that include emulsifiable concentrates, aerosols, and granules. Permethrin is also notable for its environmental persistence, which necessitates careful management to minimize potential impacts on non-target organisms, particularly aquatic life. Its mode of action involves binding to sodium channels in the insect nervous system, prolonging their activation and resulting in hyperexcitation. Overall, permethrin is valued for its efficacy and versatility, but its use must be balanced with considerations for safety and environmental impact.
