Description

Allatostatin I CAS NO 123338-10-3 is a synthetic neuropeptide analog that functions as a potent and specific inhibitor of juvenile hormone biosynthesis in insects. This compound is of significant interest for its role in disrupting insect development and reproduction, offering a targeted mechanism for pest control research. It is primarily utilized by researchers in the fields of entomology, agricultural science, and the development of novel biopesticides.

Application

• Insect Physiology Research: Fundamental studies on the regulation of juvenile hormone and insect metamorphosis.
• Mode-of-Action Studies: Investigating the endocrine disruption pathways in target pest species for novel pesticide development.
• Biochemical Reagent: Used as a high-purity reference standard in analytical laboratories for method development and validation.
• Academic & Institutional Research: A critical tool for universities and government research institutes studying insect endocrinology.
• Agrochemical R&D: Screening and evaluation of compounds that mimic or interfere with allatostatin activity for potential crop protection solutions.
