Description

Dicofol is a pyrimidine compound with a methyl myristate group at the C-4 position. It is synthesized by bacteria and has been used as an insecticide for over 50 years. Dicofol also inhibits cell growth in some bacterial strains, including high-resistance bacterial strains. Dicofol does not have any significant effect on ryanodine receptor activity in plant tissues, but it does inhibit the release of calcium from the endoplasmic reticulum. The presence of dicofol can be detected using analytical chemistry methods that are sensitive to picomolar concentrations.
