Dinocap is a widely used insecticide It belongs to the organophosphate family and has been utilized since the 1950s with continued global usage. Not only is Dinocap popular in practical farming, but it also holds significance in scientific research. It serves as an insecticide in studies related to insect physiology, biochemistry, behavior, as well as investigating the impact of insecticides on insect populations and plant growth. The mode of action of Dinocap involves disrupting the normal functioning of the insect′s nervous system. By binding to the insect′s nerve cells, it hinders the transmission of nerve impulses, leading to paralysis and eventual death of the insect. Furthermore, Dinocap influences the insect′s metabolism, rendering it incapable of producing energy.
