Fame Insecticide Technical Details

• Technical Content: Flubendiamide 480SC (39.35% w/w)
• Mode of Entry: Systemic
• Mode of Action: In contrast to most commercially successful insecticides which act on the nervous system, Flubendiamide disrupts proper muscle function in insects and therefore represents a novel, unique mode of action. These characteristic symptoms are induced by Flubendiamide through the activation of ryanodine sensitive intracellular calcium release channels (ryanodine receptors, RyR) as shown by Ca2+ fluorescence measurements in insect neurons as well as in recombinant cells expressing the cloned ryanodine receptor from Drosophila melanogaster.

Key Features & Benefits

• Effectively works on all stages of pest's life cycle.
• Fame Insecticide is effective against pests that feed by Biting and chewing type of mouth.
• Green Label Flubendiamide is an excellent tool for resistance management programs and Integrated Pest Management (IPM) due to its favorable toxicity profile.
• Fame Insecticide has Translaminar action where the insecticide penetrates the leaf surface and moves from the upper to the lower surface of the leaf. This helps in controlling pests that are difficult to reach with contact insecticides.
• Rain fast due to specific Physico-chemical properties.
