Factory Supply Lufenuron with the CAS number 103055 - 07 - 8 is a well - known insect growth regulator. The chemical name of lufenuron is 1 - [[[2,5 - dichloro - 4 - (1,1,2,3,3,3 - hexafluoropropoxy)phenyl]amino]carbonyl] - 2,6 - difluorobenzamide. It is usually presented as a white to light yellow crystalline powder.
It has a molecular formula of C17H8Cl2F8N2O3 and a molecular weight of approximately 511.15 g/mol. The melting point of lufenuron ranges from 164 - 166°C. It has low solubility in water, about 0.02 mg/L at 20°C, but it is soluble in some organic solvents such as acetone, dichloromethane, and toluene.
Lufenuron is widely used in the field of pest control. In the pet industry, it is a popular ingredient in flea control products. It disrupts the growth and development of fleas by inhibiting chitin synthesis. Fleas that come into contact with or ingest products containing lufenuron cannot form a proper exoskeleton during their molting process, which ultimately leads to their death. This helps to control flea infestations on pets, reducing the risk of skin irritation, allergic reactions, and the spread of flea - borne diseases.
In the agricultural sector, lufenuron is used to control a variety of lepidopteran pests such as cotton bollworms, cabbage loopers, and tomato pinworms. By targeting the larval stage of these pests, it can significantly reduce crop damage, ensuring higher yields and better - quality produce.
For pet use, lufenuron is often available in oral formulations such as tablets or chewable treats. The dosage is typically based on the weight of the pet. It is recommended to follow the instructions provided by the veterinarian. Usually, a single dose can provide protection against fleas for a certain period, often up to one month. Before administration, make sure the pet is in good health, and if the pet has any pre - existing medical conditions, consult the vet first.
In agriculture, lufenuron is formulated into emulsifiable concentrates or wettable powders. It can be applied using standard spraying equipment. The application rate depends on the type of crop, the severity of the pest infestation, and the local environmental conditions. It is crucial to follow the label instructions carefully to ensure effective pest control while minimizing the impact on the environment.
Case 1: A pet owner in a suburban area noticed that their cat was constantly scratching due to a severe flea infestation. After consulting the veterinarian, they started using a lufenuron - based flea treatment. Within a week of administering the first dose, the cat's scratching significantly reduced. After a month, a thorough check showed that the flea population on the cat was almost eradicated. The owner continued to use the product as recommended, and the cat remained flea - free for an extended period.
Case 2: A cotton farmer in a large agricultural region was facing a serious problem with cotton bollworms. The bollworms were causing significant damage to the cotton crops, reducing the yield. The farmer applied a lufenuron - based pesticide according to the recommended dosage and application method. After a few days, the activity of the bollworms decreased. By the end of the growing season, the farmer noticed a significant improvement in the quality and quantity of the cotton harvest compared to previous years when other pesticides were used.
