CAS: 39255-32-8
Mazanate (S-Ethyl dipropylcarbamothioate) is an organothiophosphate compound primarily recognized for its pesticidal properties. It functions as an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor, disrupting the nervous system of insects and mites. It is typically a liquid at room temperature and is used as an active ingredient in agricultural formulations.
Mazanate is used as a broad-spectrum insecticide and acaricide in agricultural settings. Its primary use is in the control of various insect pests and mites that infest crops.
Applications of Mazanate include pest management in field crops, fruits, vegetables, and other agricultural commodities to protect against chewing and sucking insects, as well as mites. It can be applied as a spray or through other conventional pesticide application methods.
Mazanate is classified as highly toxic. As an organothiophosphate, it can cause cholinesterase inhibition in humans and animals, leading to symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, dizziness, headache, muscle weakness, blurred vision, and in severe cases, respiratory depression and convulsions. Exposure can occur via dermal absorption, inhalation, or ingestion. Personal protective equipment (PPE) including gloves, eye protection, and respiratory protection is essential during handling. It is also toxic to aquatic organisms and birds, requiring careful environmental management.
