(Rac)-Juvenile hormone III
Based on 1 Customer Validation
(Rac)-Juvenile hormone III is a cecropia juvenile hormone and juvenile hormone agonist. (Rac)-Juvenile hormone III induces test insects to retain larval characteristics after the final molt to the adult stage. (Rac)-Juvenile hormone III exhibits juvenile hormone activity in Tenebrio molitor pupae and last-instar nymphs of Oncopeltus fasciatus. (Rac)-Juvenile hormone III possesses morphogenetic activity in insect assays.

Biological Activity
(Rac)-Juvenile hormone III (IVa) (0.001-0.1 μg; topical; single application) induces a weak morphogenetic response (score 0-1) in last-instar Oncopeltus fasciatus nymphs at 0.1 μg, with no response at lower 0.001 μg and 0.01 μg doses[1].
