Product Information

• Name: Profenofos
• Synonyms: Phosphorothioic acid O-(4-bromo-2-chlorophenyl) O-ethyl S-propyl esterCGA 15324
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Profenofos is a water-soluble organophosphate that can be used as a pesticide. It has been shown to have synergic effects with other pesticides, such as malathion and carbaryl. Profenofos has been studied for its toxicological properties in vitro and in vivo. These studies have shown that the lowest dose at which there are adverse effects on biochemical properties is 0.1 mg/kg of body weight. The mode of action of profenofos includes inhibition of esterases, glutathione reductase, and cytochrome P450 enzymes. This enzyme inhibition leads to an accumulation of acetylcholine in the synaptic cleft, which causes muscle paralysis and death from respiratory failure. Profenofos also affects cardiac function by blocking potassium channels, leading to heart rate changes and arrhythmias. Profenofos can be identified using chromatographic analysis or electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). EIS is
