Insecticide
Insecticide
Insecticides refer to any toxic substances used to kill insects, which exert toxic effects on pests through different mechanisms, thereby achieving the purpose of controlling pest populations and protecting crops and human health. Insecticides have both chemical and biological origins and can be classified into organochlorine insecticides, organophosphorus insecticides, carbamate insecticides, and mineral insecticides based on their chemical properties. Insecticides interact with different target and non-target sites, including receptors, enzymes, and many other known and unknown molecules. Most insecticides are neurotoxicants that target the nervous system, but they can also affect other organs and body systems. Insecticides are metabolized through different metabolic pathways and often serve as biomarkers of exposure in the form of their parent compounds or metabolites. The toxicity of insecticides can be acute, subacute, or chronic, depending on the duration of exposure and the dose involved. Therefore, selecting sensitive, accurate, and validated biomarkers of exposure, effects, and susceptibility appears to be a challenging task.
Insecticides are widely used in agriculture, horticulture, forestry, gardening, homes, offices, and other fields[1][2].

Pellitorine (Standard)
0 ImagesCat. No.: HY-N3097RCAS No.: 18836-52-7Pellitorine (Standard) is the analytical standard of Pellitorine (HY-N3097). Pellitorine is a bioactive natural amide compound. Pellitorine can competitively antagonize the activation of TRPV1 by Capsaicin (HY-10448), thereby reducing pain signal transmission. Pellitorine improves cognitive dysfunction by upregulating the BDNF-ERK1/2-CREB and Nrf2-HO-1 pathways. Pellitorine exerts anti-inflammatory and anti-sepsis effects by inhibiting the release of high mobility group protein B1 (HMGB1) and the expression of RAGE/TLR4. Pellitorine exerts its antithrombotic effect by prolonging the clotting time, inhibiting the activity of clotting factors and thrombin. Pellitorine inhibits lipid peroxidation and resists ferroptosis by upregulating GPX4 and DHODH. Pellitorine kills Aedes aegypti mosquito larvae by inhibiting V-type H⁺-ATPase and aquaporin 4 (AaAQP4). Pellitorine exhibits anti-cancer activity (e.g., leukemia and breast cancer) and has inhibitory effects on certain bacteria.

Propoxur-d3
0 ImagesCat. No.: HY-B0916SCAS No.: 1219798-56-7Propoxur-d3 is the deuterated form of Propoxur (HY-B0916). Propoxur is a reversible, competitive, orally active AChE inhibitor that can cross the blood-brain barrier. Propoxur inhibits AChE activity to induce neurotoxicity, while promoting MMP-2 expression and enhancing tumor cell migration and invasion by inducing intracellular ROS generation and activating the ERK/Nrf2 signaling pathway. On the one hand, Propoxur inhibits AChE, leading to acetylcholine accumulation and causing neurological dysfunction; on the other hand, it promotes Nrf2 nuclear translocation through ROS-dependent ERK1/2 phosphorylation, and upregulates MMP-2 and other invasion-related proteins. Propoxur is also a carbamate insecticide used to combat turf, forestry, and household pests.

Fluvalinate-d5
0 ImagesCat. No.: HY-123320SFluvalinate-d5 is the deuterated-labeled Fluvalinate (HY-123320). Fluvalinate is an orally active acaricide classified as a sodium channel inhibitor. Fluvalinate delays sodium channel closure, prolongs cell membrane depolarization, inhibits the excitability of honeybee brain neurons, and exerts a central nervous system inhibitory effect. Fluvalinate negatively affects the learning ability, memory ability, sucrose responsiveness, and survival of honeybees. Fluvalinate potentiates pentobarbital-induced hypnosis, reduces spontaneous activity in mice, and decreases the total white blood cell count and absolute lymphocyte count in mice. Fluvalinate induces acute toxic symptoms in rats, acts as a cholinergic stimulant, and induces the production of hepatic enzymes in rats. Fluvalinate causes the death of Varroa jacobsoni sensitive to τ-Fluvalinate (HY-B2021). Fluvalinate can be used in studies related to mite pest control.
