Metiram

Description:

Metiram, with the CAS number 9006-42-2, is a chemical compound primarily used as a fungicide in agricultural applications. It belongs to the class of dithiocarbamate compounds, which are known for their protective action against a variety of fungal pathogens. Metiram functions by inhibiting spore germination and mycelial growth, thereby preventing the spread of diseases in crops. It is typically applied to a range of crops, including fruits, vegetables, and ornamental plants. The substance is characterized by its relatively low toxicity to humans and animals, making it a preferred choice in integrated pest management systems. Metiram is often formulated as a wettable powder or granule, allowing for effective application in the field. Additionally, it has a moderate environmental persistence, necessitating careful management to minimize potential impacts on non-target organisms and ecosystems. Overall, Metiram plays a significant role in enhancing agricultural productivity while promoting sustainable farming practices.

Metiram

CAS: 9006-42-2

Metiram is a metal-chelating agent that inhibits the synthesis of DNA by binding to nuclear DNA. It has synergic effects with other metal-chelating agents and its genotoxic effects are increased with chronic exposure. Metiram has been shown to induce necrotic cell death in vitro, which may be due to the depletion of ATP and the induction of apoptosis. Metiram also has immunomodulatory effects and can stimulate the production of growth factor. Sodium salts are often used as an additive for metiram because it can lead to cell lysis when there is prolonged exposure to high concentrations.
