    Product Description

    Deltamethrin is a type II pyrethroid insecticide and a modulator of voltage-gated sodium channels (Nav).1 It activates Nav1.8 channels and induces a tail current delay in Xenopus oocytes expressing the rat channel when used at a concentration of 10 µM. Deltamethrin induces mortality in A. sinensis (LC50 = 4.522 ppm) and T. urticae (LC50 = 0.06 g/L).2,3 It decreases sperm count, motility, and viability and increases the percentage of morphologically abnormal sperm in rats when administered at a dose of 5 mg/kg.4 Formulations containing deltamethrin have been used as domestic and agricultural insecticides.

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
