Descripción

Phosmet is an oxidation catalyst that has been used in wastewater treatment and in the preparation of acetylcholinesterase inhibitors. Phosmet is also a powerful inhibitor of acetylcholinesterase, an enzyme involved in the breakdown of acetylcholine. In vitro studies have shown that this chemical can cause hepatotoxicity, which may be due to its ability to inhibit mitochondrial function and alter lipid metabolism. Phosmet has also been shown to increase oxidative stress in liver cells, leading to fatty liver disease.

Phosmet is used as a pesticide for insect control on crops and livestock. It works by inhibiting cholinesterases and causes paralysis of insects when they come into contact with it. The chemical's usefulness as a pesticide comes from its low mammalian toxicity and high solubility in water, making it ideal for use on food crops.
