NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. is dedicated to providing clear and actionable information about our agrochemical products. Understanding the mode of action of an insecticide is crucial for its effective and responsible use. Cartap Hydrochloride, a key product in our portfolio, operates through a distinct mechanism that offers significant advantages in pest control.

Cartap Hydrochloride is classified as a nereistoxin analogue. Its primary mode of action involves blocking the transmission of nerve impulses in insects. Specifically, it acts as a nicotinergic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) channel blocker. In simple terms, it interferes with the communication signals in an insect's nervous system. When an insect comes into contact with or ingests Cartap Hydrochloride, the chemical binds to these critical receptors, preventing the normal firing of neurons. This disruption leads to paralysis and, ultimately, the death of the pest.

This unique mechanism offers several benefits. Firstly, it provides control over a wide range of insects, including those that may have developed resistance to other classes of insecticides. This makes Cartap Hydrochloride an excellent tool for resistance management, allowing farmers to rotate or combine it with other products to maintain pest susceptibility.

The insecticide exhibits multiple modes of action: systemic, contact, and stomach. Systemic action means that once absorbed by the plant, Cartap Hydrochloride moves through the plant's vascular system, providing protection from within. This is particularly effective against insects that feed on plant tissues, as they ingest the active ingredient. Contact action means it can kill pests upon direct contact with the treated surfaces. The stomach action refers to its effectiveness when ingested by the pest during feeding.

This combination of systemic, contact, and stomach action makes Cartap Hydrochloride a versatile and powerful tool. It ensures comprehensive coverage and effectiveness against various pest behaviors and feeding habits. Farmers can rely on its swift action upon pest exposure, leading to reduced damage and improved crop health. At NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD., we emphasize understanding these mechanisms to help our clients maximize the benefits of Cartap Hydrochloride, ensuring efficient and targeted pest management solutions.
