Description

S-Hydroprene is a synthetic insect growth regulator (IGR) analog of juvenile hormone, widely recognized for its efficacy in controlling insect populations by disrupting their normal development. This compound is valued for its targeted action against immature life stages of pests, offering a strategic tool for integrated pest management (IPM) programs. It is essential for manufacturers of professional pest control products, agricultural formulations, and researchers in entomology and insect physiology.

Application

• Professional Pest Control: A key active ingredient in formulations for controlling cockroaches, fleas, stored product pests, and other insects in commercial and residential settings.
• Agricultural Insect Management: Used in crop protection programs to manage pests like whiteflies, aphids, and scales by preventing larvae from maturing into reproducing adults.
• Public Health Vector Control: Incorporated into programs targeting mosquito larvae and other disease vectors to reduce population growth.
• Animal Health: Formulated in products for controlling insect pests in livestock and poultry facilities.
• Stored Commodity Protection: Applied to protect grains, tobacco, and other stored goods from infestation by beetles, moths, and weevils.
• Research & Development: Serves as a critical reference standard and active agent in entomological research, toxicology studies, and the development of new insect growth regulators.

Quality Control

Our S-Hydroprene is manufactured under strict quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Quality is verified through comprehensive analytical testing, including chromatographic methods to confirm identity and potency. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, assay, and impurity profiles is provided with each shipment to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This material is easily oxidized and should be kept under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) for long-term storage to maintain stability and efficacy. Keep away from heat and incompatible materials.
