MedKoo Cat#: 146156 | Name: Esprocarb

Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Esprocarb is a selective carbamate insecticide primarily used in agriculture to control pests such as aphids, whiteflies, and various other insects. It works by inhibiting the enzyme acetylcholinesterase, which is essential for nerve function in insects, leading to the accumulation of acetylcholine and eventually paralysis and death of the pest. This mechanism of action is similar to that of other carbamate pesticides, affecting the insect's nervous system.
