Temefos

Temephos (Temefos) is an orally active, blood-brain barrier-permeable organophosphate insecticide and AChE inhibitor. By irreversibly inhibiting AChE to induce cholinergic overactivation, Temephos effectively blocks larval development of Aedes aegypti (yellow fever mosquito) and Aedes albopictus (Asian tiger mosquito), and is commonly used in studies related to Dengue Virus, Zika Virus and other relevant pathogens. Temephos exhibits genotoxicity and neurodevelopmental toxicity, and may also cause liver injury, reproductive system abnormalities and cholinergic poisoning symptoms in mammals. Temephos tends to accumulate in adipose tissues and aquatic organisms, and is excreted via feces after metabolism through oxidation and hydrolysis. Note that CYP-mediated metabolic detoxification may reduce the actual larvicidal efficacy of Temephos against some mosquito species. Temephos can be used in research related to dengue fever, Zika virus disease, chikungunya and dracunculiasis .
