Product Information
Name:Acephate d3
Brand:Biosynth
Description:Acephate d3 is an isotopically labeled organophosphorus insecticide, which is a synthetic chemical compound used primarily for its insecticidal properties. It is derived by incorporating deuterium, a stable hydrogen isotope, into the molecular structure of acephate. The inclusion of deuterium isotopes is instrumental in tracing and studying the biochemical pathways and metabolic degradation of acephate within target organisms and ecosystems.
Acephate d3 functions by inhibiting acetylcholinesterase, an enzyme essential for nerve function, leading to the accumulation of acetylcholine in synapses and eventually causing paralysis and death in insects. The labeling with deuterium does not alter the functional efficacy as a nerve agent but facilitates detailed metabolic and pharmacokinetic studies due to its unique mass signatures detectable by spectroscopy.
This specialized version of acephate is primarily utilized in research settings. It aids in elucidating metabolic pathways and assessing environmental fate and persistence. Furthermore, it provides insights into resistance mechanisms in pest populations, enabling the development of more effective pest management strategies and safer agricultural practices.
