Azamethiphos(Cat No.:R007559)is an organophosphate insecticide widely used in aquaculture and veterinary medicine to control ectoparasites, particularly sea lice in salmon farming. It functions by inhibiting acetylcholinesterase, leading to overstimulation of the nervous system and parasite death. Due to its potency and rapid action, azamethiphos is applied in controlled treatments to reduce parasite burdens that threaten fish health and productivity. Researchers also study its toxicological profile, environmental persistence, and resistance development. Its role in integrated pest management makes it significant for sustainable aquaculture practices and veterinary applications.
