    Product Description

    Benomyl is a carbamate pesticide.1 It inhibits mycelial growth of the plant pathogenic fungus A. rabiei on potato dextrose agar (EC50 = 2.19 µg/ml). Benomyl (1 mg/ml in the drinking water) decreases the fecundity of red ant (M. rubra) queens.2 It induces the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), apoptosis, and DNA damage in H9c2 rat cardiomyocytes.3

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
