Product Information

• Name: Cyano-3-phenoxybenzyl 3-(2,2-dichloroethenyl)-2,2-dimethylcyclopropanecarboxylate
• Synonyms: 3-(2,2-Dichloroethenyl)-2,2-dimethylcyclopropanecarboxylic acid cyano(3-phenoxyphenyl)methyl esterNRDC-149FMC-30980Cypermethrin
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Cypermethrin is an insecticide that belongs to the family of chemical pesticides. It is used in agriculture and in public health to control malaria-transmitting mosquitoes, head lice, and scabies mites. Cypermethrin disrupts the insect nervous system by inhibiting the function of synapses between nerves, resulting in paralysis and death. The compound also affects signal pathways that regulate locomotor activity and enzyme activities. Cypermethrin has been shown to have a high resistance to degradation by glycol ethers such as ethylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate (EGMEA). It has an optimum concentration of 0.01 ppm for mosquito control and 0.1 ppm for lice control. The analytical method involves liquid chromatography with sodium citrate as an ion-pairing agent and a linear calibration curve using a standard curve generated from known concentrations of cypermethrin.
