Product Information

• Name: Metaflumizone
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Metaflumizone is a new insecticide that has been shown to have a synergic effect with other insecticides such as pyrethroids. It blocks the ryanodine receptor, leading to uncontrolled release of calcium from the sarcoplasmic reticulum in invertebrate nerve and muscle cells. Metaflumizone also has toxicological properties, including long-term toxicity and toxicity studies. The analytical method for metaflumizone is gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS). Metaflumizone is used as an insecticide against a wide range of insects, including ants, cockroaches, fleas, flies, mosquitoes, moths and ticks. However it has been shown to be ineffective against some insects such as termites and leafhoppers. Metaflumizone also has high resistance in insects such as houseflies and mosquitoes due to its slow degradation.
