CAS 66215-27-8: Cyromazine
Description:Cyromazine is a chemical compound primarily used as an insect growth regulator, particularly in agricultural applications to control pests in crops and livestock. It belongs to the class of triazine derivatives and functions by disrupting the development of insects, preventing them from maturing into adults. Cyromazine is characterized by its relatively low toxicity to mammals and birds, making it a preferred choice for pest management in various settings. It is typically applied in formulations such as granules or sprays and is effective against a range of pests, including flies and other insects. The compound is stable under normal conditions but may degrade when exposed to extreme environmental factors. Its mode of action involves interference with chitin synthesis, which is crucial for insect exoskeleton formation. Additionally, cyromazine has a low solubility in water, which influences its application and environmental behavior. Overall, cyromazine is valued for its efficacy in pest control while posing minimal risk to non-target organisms when used according to recommended guidelines.
