Insecticides and acaricides
CHURCHILL 12.5 EC
Mode of Action: IRAC GROUP 19 INSECTICIDE (Octopamine receptor agonists Nerve action {Good evidence thataction at one or more of this class of protein is responsible for insecticidal effects) Insecticides & Acaricides Amitrazis a tertiary amino compound that is 1,3,5-triazapenta-1,4-diene substituted by a methyl group at position 3 and 2,4-dimethylphenyl groups at positions 1 and 5. It has a role as an acaricide, a xenobiotic, an environmental contaminantand an insecticide. It is a tertiary amino compound and a member of formamidines. Amitraz is a non-systemicacaricide and insecticide. It was generated in 1969 by the Boots Co. in England. Amitraz presents insect repellenteffects and hence, it can be used as an insecticide and pesticide. Its insecticide effect is due to its agonistic activityin the alpha-adrenergic system, its interaction with the octopamine receptors in the central nervous system and itsdriven inhibition of the synthesis of monoamine oxidases and prostaglandins. All the abovementioned effects aretranslated into the overexcitation, paralysis, and death in insects. Amitraz presents a lower effect in mammals andthus, it is widely used in the treatment of mite- or tick-infestation of dogs.
