Pesticide Metabolites
Cloyd, Raymond A.
|
|
For some pesticides, the active ingredient must be converted by the insect, mite, or plant into a lethal substance. These substances, metabolites, are the product of chemical reactions that occur naturally in cells during metabolism. Insecticides and miticides that work via metabolites are known as pro-insecticides or pro-acaricides. 2 p.
