Pirimiphos-methyl（Cat No.:R059389）is a broad-spectrum organophosphate insecticide widely used for controlling stored-product pests and agricultural insects. It functions by inhibiting acetylcholinesterase, disrupting nerve impulse transmission and leading to paralysis and death in target species. With both contact and fumigant activity, pirimiphos-methyl is effective against insects in grains, cereals, and food storage facilities, helping to prevent post-harvest losses. Its stability and efficiency make it valuable for integrated pest management. In research, it is studied for toxicology, resistance mechanisms, and environmental fate of organophosphate pesticides.
