| SPECTRUM
|
Highly active against 1st / IInd / IIIrd instar
larvae of various mosquito species e.g. Aedes,Culex,
Anopheles,Culisetta, Psorophora, Uranotaenia,
Mansonia, vectors of Malaria, filaria,
Japanese Encephalitis, Dengue fever
and Nuisance mosquitoes and larvae of Black
fly Simulium spp,vector of Onchocerciasis.It
is also active against Phlebotomus argentipes
vector of kala-Azar. |
|
| |
|
| MODE
OF ACTION : |
Bacticide acts on host larvae through its parasporal
crystal delta endotoxin and bacterial spores, causing
starvation, paralysis and septicemia of larval bodies
ultimately resulting death of larval bodies.The endotoxin
acts on midgut epithelium causing disintegration of
gut wall, cessation of feeding activity, starvation
and leakage of gut contents into haemolymph and body
cavity of the larvae leading to general paralysis of
larval body.The spores germinate to form bacterial cells
that multiply in the larval gut body causing septicemia.Surviving
larvae if any,because of consuming sub-lethal doses,lead
to under developed /deformed pupae /adults unable to
form the progenies. |

|
| FURTHER
INFORMATIONS |
Bacticide results in sharp and continous decline of
larval populations (90-100%) within 6-24 hrs. of application,
in various habitats and ecological different sites including
drains, water streams, sewerage tanks, water coolers,
cooling towers, fountains, construction sites, industrial
scraps, rice fields, septic thanks, ditches, pools and
marshy ponds, etc. This results in decline of adults
mosquitoes, slide positivity rates and parasitlogical
indices. |
