Product Description


Mechanism of Action

Flonicamid is an insecticide that blocks chordotonal organ mechanoreceptors, impairing feeding behavior in sap‑feeding insects. It does not act on acetylcholinesterase or sodium channels, giving it a novel mode of action.

Benefits and Advantages

Used in insect neurophysiology studies, receptor‑specific inhibition modelling and crop‑protection research.

Side Effects and Risks

Low mammalian toxicity but potential aquatic toxicity and environmental persistence.
