Acrinathrin (Ref: RU 38702)
Last updated: 24/07/2024
(Also known as: acrinathrine; AE F076003; HOE 76003; NU 702)

SUMMARY
Acrinathrin is a synthetic pyrethroid that has a high insecticidal activity against a range of insects including mites. It has a low aqueous solubility, is semi-volatile and, based on its chemical properties, should not leach. Laboratory studies suggest it is moderately persistent in soils but will rapid degrade in aqueous systems. It has a low toxicity to humans but there is some concern that it may bio-accumulate. Acrinathrin is highly toxic to bees and most aquatic species, moderately toxic to birds and earthworms.
