Hydroprene
Hydroprene is a synthetic juvenile hormone analog that mainly interferes with the normal growth, development and reproduction processes of insects by mimicking the juvenile hormone in insects. Hydroprene inhibits insect metamorphosis, disrupts reproduction and even directly affects embryos, with its target being the immature stages of insects. Hydroprene can be used in control studies of Plodia interpunctella eggs and Blattella germanica.

Biological Activity
Hydroprene (0.1-100.0 μg/μL; topical; single dose) sterilizes last-instar German cockroaches in a dose-dependent manner, with males more sensitive (SD50 = 39.82 μg/g) than females (SD50 = 86.64 μg/g), and the highest tested dose reduces adult longevity and induces supernumerary molting[2].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Animal Model:Johnson Wax strain (nonresistant to conventional insecticides; 1-2-d-old last [fifth] instar)[2]
-
Dosage:0.1 μg/μL; 1.0 μg/μL; 10.0 μg/μL; 100.0 μg/μL
-
Administration:topical; single dose
-
Result:Caused 3.5% infertility and produced 33.60 progeny per ovarian cycle in females at 0.1 μg/μL.
Caused 10.7% infertility and produced 29.32 progeny per ovarian cycle in females at 1.0 μg/μL.
Caused 96.2% infertility and produced 0.80 progeny per ovarian cycle in females at 10.0 μg/μL.
Caused 100% infertility and produced 0 progeny per ovarian cycle in females at 100.0 μg/μL.
Caused 20.0% infertility and produced 27.84 progeny per ovarian cycle in crosses with males treated at 0.1 μg/μL.
Caused 55.1% infertility and produced 12.10 progeny per ovarian cycle in crosses with males treated at 1.0 μg/μL.
Caused 100% infertility and produced 0 progeny per ovarian cycle in crosses with males treated at 10.0 μg/μL or 100.0 μg/μL.
Achieved a sterilization dose 50% (SD50) of 86.64 μg/g body weight for females and 39.82 μg/g body weight for males.
Induced twisted wings in 100% of females and males treated at 10.0 μg/μL or 100.0 μg/μL, with 96.2-100% of twisted-wing females and 100% of twisted-wing males sterile.
Induced twisted wings in 64.2% of females and 51.7% of males treated at 1.0 μg/μL, with 16.6% of twisted-wing females and 80.0% of twisted-wing males sterile.
Reduced adult lifespans of females to 96.57 days and males to 46.33 days at 100.0 μg/μL.
Induced supernumerary sixth molt in some individuals treated at 100.0 μg/μL, with death occurring 1-2 days after partial abdominal cuticle shedding.
