Alanto Insecticide Technical Details
-
Technical Content: Thiacloprid 21.7% SC
-
Mode of Entry: Systemic with contact and stomach poison
-
Mode of Action: Thiacloprid is antagonist to the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor in the central nervous system. It disturbs the proper signal transmission system leading to excitation of nerve cells. Consequently, a disorder of the nervous system occurs leading finally to the death of the target pests.
Key Features & Benefits
- Due to its relative stability to rain-water and sunlight, Alanto remains on the leaf's surface after application for a considerable time, thus allowing a continuous penetration of the active ingredient into the leaf.
- Alanto covers a broad range of targeted pests, viz., aphids, whiteflies, thrips, and lepidopterans.
-
Alanto Insecticide acts as an acute contact and stomach poison, exhibits systemic activity added with translaminar activity and residual effect.
- No cross resistance to conventional insecticides, with fast degradation in the environment.
- Alanto shows a low acute mammalian toxicity, due to relatively low rates of application, excellent plant compatibility and a favorable eco-toxicological profile.
