Alpha-cypermethrin
    顺式氯氰菊酯
Introduction: Alpha-cypermethrin is a broad spectrum synthetic pyrethroid insecticide. It is highly effective in contact and ingestion against target insects. It is effective for the control of defoliating caterpillar pests and fruit borers and also suppresses sucking pests. Alpha cypermethrin can be used on cereals, cotton, fruits, vegetables, flower crops, oilseeds, sugar beet, tea, vines, etc. for the control of a variety of insects.

ENVIRONMENTAL FATE
EHC 142 (WHO, 1992) EHC 142 notes that, although highly toxic to fish, this is not realised under field conditions where rapid loss from water allows recovery of affected populations. Animals See cypermethrin. Clearance time 7.8 d. Level of residues in organisms after the 28 day depuration phase 8% of the maximum level. Soil/Environment Undergoes degradation in soil, DT50 c. 13 w in loamy soil. See also cypermethrin (q.v.).
Usage: Alpha-cypermethrin was developed by Shell International Chemical Co. (now BASF AG). It is an insecticide for control of chewing and sucking insects in a wide range of crops and non-crop situations. Also has veterinary treatment applications.
Application: Biochemistry Acts by preventing transmission of impulses along nerves, brought about by blocking the passage of sodium ions through sodium channels in nerve membranes thus preventing action potentials passing down axons. Typically this intoxication results in a rapid "knockdown" and resultant mortality. Mode of action Non-systemic insecticide with contact and stomach action. Acts on the central and peripheral nervous system in very low doses. Uses Control of a wide range of chewing and sucking insects (particularly Lepidoptera, Coleoptera, and Hemiptera) in fruit (including citrus), vegetables, vines, cereals, maize, beet, oilseed rape, potatoes, cotton, rice, soya beans, forestry, and other crops; applied at 10-15 g/ha. Control of cockroaches, mosquitoes, flies, and other insect pests in public health; and flies in animal houses. Also used as an animal ectoparasiticide.
