Phenthoate

Ref. 3D-FP159185

Product Information

• Name: Phenthoate
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Phenthoate is a carbamate insecticide that inhibits the mitochondrial respiratory enzyme, cytochrome c oxidase. The inhibition of this enzyme prevents the conversion of oxygen to water, leading to cell death. Phenthoate also has been shown to be toxic to liver cells and kidney bean cells in vitro. A new analytical method using phenthoate as a probe was developed for the detection of trace amounts of carbaryl in environmental samples. It uses a flow system with an immobilized hydroxyl group and utilizes the different reactivity of phenthoate and carbaryl. Phenthoate reacts with hydroxyl groups in various biological samples such as human serum or liver cells, while carbaryl does not react with these groups. This new method may have potential applications in forensic analysis, biomonitoring, and other fields.
