CAS 87130-20-9: Diethofencarb
Description:Diethofencarb, with the CAS number 87130-20-9, is a chemical compound primarily used as a pesticide, particularly in agricultural applications. It belongs to the class of carbamate insecticides, which function by inhibiting the enzyme acetylcholinesterase, leading to the accumulation of acetylcholine in the nervous system of pests, ultimately resulting in their death. Diethofencarb is characterized by its relatively low toxicity to mammals compared to other insecticides, making it a preferred choice in integrated pest management. The compound is typically applied in formulations that allow for effective pest control while minimizing environmental impact. Its efficacy against a range of insects, combined with its relatively short half-life in the environment, contributes to its utility in crop protection. However, as with all pesticides, proper handling and application are essential to mitigate potential risks to non-target organisms and human health. Regulatory assessments ensure that its use complies with safety standards to protect both the environment and agricultural workers.
