(Z)-11-Hexadecenyl acetate is a component of insect sex pheromones, which elicits electroantennogram responses in male Plutella xylostella and induces their wing-fanning and claspers-exposing behaviors. (Z)-11-Hexadecenyl acetate also serves as a sex pheromone component of Spodoptera exigua and Chilo suppressalis. When used in combination with other pheromones, (Z)-11-Hexadecenyl acetate significantly enhances the attraction effect on male Tryporyza incertulas, and it exists in trace amounts in the eluate of the ovipositor of female Tryporyza incertulas. (Z)-11-Hexadecenyl acetate shows no attraction effect on male Cnaphalocrocis medinalis and exhibits species specificity.

Description

(Z)-11-Hexadecenyl acetate is a component of insect sex pheromones, which elicits electroantennogram responses in male Plutella xylostella and induces their wing-fanning and claspers-exposing behaviors. (Z)-11-Hexadecenyl acetate also serves as a sex pheromone component of Spodoptera exigua and Chilo suppressalis. When used in combination with other pheromones, (Z)-11-Hexadecenyl acetate significantly enhances the attraction effect on male Tryporyza incertulas, and it exists in trace amounts in the eluate of the ovipositor of female Tryporyza incertulas. (Z)-11-Hexadecenyl acetate shows no attraction effect on male Cnaphalocrocis medinalis and exhibits species specificity[1][2].

In Vitro

(Z)-11-Hexadecenyl acetate is present in the ovipositor eluate collected from unmated female Scirpophaga incertulas moths in northern Vietnam 4 h after entering the scotophase[2].

In Vivo

(Z)-11-Hexadecenyl acetate (0.0005-0.5 μg; applied to glass rod) elicits dose-dependent EAG responses in male diamondback moths, with a EC50 behavioral response observed at 1×10-3 to 1×10-2 μg when combined with (Z)-11-hexadecenal[1].
(Z)-11-Hexadecenyl acetate (0.1-1 μg; loaded on cotton wick; over 3 nights) in 1:1 or 4:6 mixtures with (Z)-11-hexadecenal attracts male diamondback moths under field conditions[1].
(Z)-11-Hexadecenyl acetate (100 μg; field deployment; 14-44 d), when added with 1000 μg (Z)-13-octadecenyl acetate to the standard S. incertulas sex pheromone blend, increases the attractiveness of lures to male S. incertulas by an average of 120% in field populations in northern Vietnam, with significant increases observed in five out of six replicated experiments[2].

Animal Model: Wild populations (male moths, from northern Vietnam)[2]
Dosage: 100 µg (co-formulated with 250 µg (Z)-9-hexadecenal, 750 µg (Z)-11-hexadecenal, and 1000 µg (Z)-13-octadecenyl acetate)
Administration: Field deployment; 14-44 days
Result: Increased mean moths trapped per trap per night by 0.55 (vs.
0.24 for standard lures) in Hanoi fourth generation.
Increased mean moths trapped per trap per night by 0.55 (vs.

Increased mean moths trapped per trap per night by 2.49 (vs.
1.08 for standard lures) in Hanoi sixth generation.
Increased mean moths trapped per trap per night by 6.98 (vs.
2.98 for standard lures) in Haiphong sixth generation.
Achieved an average 120% increase in catches across five significant experiments.
Captured no *Cnaphalocrosis medinalis* moths in any experiment.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
