Description

Lepimectin CAS NO 863549-51-3 is a potent semi-synthetic derivative of the avermectin class of compounds, valued for its exceptional acaricidal and insecticidal activity. It is a critical active ingredient for formulating advanced crop protection solutions, offering effective control against a broad spectrum of mites and insects. This product is essential for agrochemical manufacturers and formulators targeting high-value crops where pest resistance management and efficacy are paramount.

Application

• As a key active ingredient in the formulation of agricultural miticides for fruits, vegetables, and ornamental plants.
• Development of insecticidal formulations targeting sucking and chewing pests in integrated pest management (IPM) programs.
• Use in crop protection products for managing spider mites, aphids, thrips, and whiteflies.
• Manufacturing of veterinary ectoparasiticides for animal health applications.
• Intermediate in the synthesis of other specialized avermectin derivatives for research and development.
• As a reference standard in analytical laboratories for quality control and regulatory testing.

Quality Control

Our Lepimectin is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Every batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation, to ensure it meets exacting specifications for agrochemical active ingredient use. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting all test results are available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (typically 15-25°C). Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame. The product may be hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); ensure the container is sealed after each use to minimize exposure to atmospheric moisture.
