    Product Description

    Fenazaquin is a quinazoline acaracide.1,2 It is an inhibitor of mitochondrial complex I, also known as NADH dehydrogenase (IC50 = 4 nM for the bovine enzyme).1 When applied near apiary food, fenazaquin (0.5 or 5 mg/strip) induces mite mortality without inducing honeybee death in mite-infested beehives.2 It reduces the number of immature and adult female mites on apple leaves in field studies when applied at a concentration of 100 or 200 ppm.3 Formulations containing fenazaquin have been used in the control of acaricides in agriculture.

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
