Insecticidal Reagents

Santa Cruz Biotechnology now offers a broad range of insecticidal reagents for use in various applications. Insecticidal reagents are chemical compounds specifically designed to control or eliminate insect pests, playing a critical role in agricultural science, entomology, and environmental research. These reagents are essential for studying the effects of insecticides on pest populations, understanding mechanisms of resistance, and developing new, more effective insect control strategies. Researchers utilize insecticidal reagents to investigate the biochemical and physiological pathways targeted by these compounds, examining how they affect insect nervous systems, metabolism, and behavior. Insecticidal reagents are also used to assess the environmental impact of insecticides, including their persistence in soil and water, and their effects on non-target organisms. By providing a comprehensive selection of high-quality insecticidal reagents, Santa Cruz Biotechnology supports cutting-edge research aimed at improving pest management practices and mitigating the adverse effects of insecticides on ecosystems. These products enable scientists to conduct precise and reproducible experiments, driving advancements in sustainable agriculture, pest control, and environmental protection.

Cottonseed oil functions as an insecticidal reagent through its ability to disrupt the lipid membranes of insect cells. The oil's fatty acid composition facilitates the solubilization of membrane proteins, impairing cellular integrity and function. Its emulsifying properties enhance the dispersion of active compounds, improving their bioavailability. Furthermore, the oil's natural surfactant qualities promote adherence to insect surfaces, increasing contact time and efficacy against pests.

Thiodicarb

59669-26-0sc-251233
250 mg
$91.00
(0)

Thiodicarb acts as an insecticidal reagent by inhibiting the enzyme acetylcholinesterase, leading to the accumulation of acetylcholine at synapses. This disruption of neurotransmission results in paralysis and eventual death of target insects. Its unique carbamate structure allows for rapid binding to the enzyme, while its stability in various environmental conditions enhances its effectiveness. Additionally, Thiodicarb's systemic properties enable it to be absorbed by plants, providing internal protection against pests.

Fipronil- 13C2 15N2

120068-37-3 (unlabeled)sc-497522
1 mg
$550.00
(0)

Fipronil-13C2 15N2 functions as an insecticidal reagent by selectively targeting the gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) receptor in insects, disrupting chloride ion flow and leading to hyperexcitation of the nervous system. Its unique isotopic labeling enhances tracking in environmental studies, while its lipophilic nature allows for effective penetration of insect cuticles. The compound exhibits prolonged residual activity, making it effective against a broad spectrum of pests.
