MedKoo Cat#: 146157 | Name: Palitantin

Description:

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

Palitantin is a natural insecticide derived from plant sources, primarily used for pest control in agricultural settings. It works by disrupting the nervous system of insects, specifically targeting their ion channels, which impairs their ability to transmit nerve impulses and leads to paralysis and death. This mechanism makes Palitantin effective against a variety of pests, including aphids, caterpillars, and beetles.
