    Product Description

    Oxamyl is a carbamate pesticide and an inhibitor of acetylcholinesterase (AChE; IC50 = 1.67 μM for C. gigas enzyme).1 It is nematocidal, decreasing the number of P. penetrans and M. hapla per gram of alfalfa (M. sativa) root when applied to seeds at a concentration of 50 mg/ml.2 Oxamyl (50 and 100 μg/ml) is also toxic to citrus nematode (T. semipenetrans) larvae.3 In vivo, oxamyl (2.1 and 3.5 mg/kg) inhibits plasma and brain AChE, as well as liver glucose-6-phosphatase and succinic acid dehydrogenase, and reduces body weight gain in rats.4 Formulations containing oxamyl have been used to control nematode infestation of field crops.

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
