Omethoate 氧乐果
Introduction: Omethoate is a systemic organophosphorus (OP) insecticide and acaricide used to control insects and mites in horticulture and agriculture, as well as in the home garden. Along with other pesticides of this class, its mode of action is through inhibition of acetylcholinesterase activity. This inhibition results in the over-stimulation of those parts of the nervous system that use acetylcholine to transmit nerve impulses.

ENVIRONMENTAL FATE
Animals Omethoate is not accumulated in animal tissues or fat. The main metabolites in the urine are O-demethylomethoate and N-methyl-2-(methyldithio)acetamide. Plants Omethoate is rapidly taken up by plants. Demethylation and hydrolysis of P-S bonds are the main metabolic steps. The main metabolites are 3-hydroxy-3-[(2- methylamino-2-oxo-ethyl)thio]propionic acid and its oxidation products. Soil/Environment Omethoate has a relatively high mobility in soil but is very rapidly metabolised; DT50 only a few days. The main metabolite is CO2. Aged leaching studies revealed that metabolites have only a low leaching potential.
Usage: Omethoate was developed by Bayer Crop Science. Omethoate is An insecticide and acaricide to control a wide range of pests on fruit, hops and other crops. It is also a pesticide transformation product.
Application: Biochemistry Cholinesterase inhibitor. Mode of action Systemic insecticide and acaricide with contact and stomach action. Uses Control of spider mites, aphids (including woolly aphids), beetles, caterpillars, scale insects, thrips, suckers, frit flies, etc. on fruit, hops, cereals, rice, potatoes, ornamentals, and other crops. Application rates vary from 35 to 1000 g/ha, depending on crop, pest, pest stage and application method. Phytotoxicity May be phytotoxic to some varieties of peach.
