    Product Description

    Fludioxonil is a phenylpyrrole fungicide.1 It inhibits the growth of B. cinerea isolates from strawberry and blackberry crops (EC50s = 0.06-0.38 mg/L).2 Fludioxonil also inhibits the growth of S. cerevisiae AF293 and C. albicans IFO1385 in a concentration-dependent manner.1,3 It is an estrogen receptor α (ERα) agonist (EC50 = 3.7 μM in a yeast reporter assay) that induces expression of the oncogenic microRNA miR-21, inhibits estradiol-induced proliferation, and reduces cell motility of MCF-7 breast cancer cells in vitro.4 Formulations containing fludioxonil have been used as fungicides in agricultural, aquatic, commercial, industrial, and residential areas.

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
