Product Description
Piperonyl butoxide-d9 is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of piperonyl butoxide (Item No. 25820) by GC- or LC-MS. Piperonyl butoxide is an insecticide synergist.1,2 It inhibits cytochrome P450 (CYP) activity in western corn rootworm (D. virgifera) abdominal microsomes in a concentration-dependent manner.3 Piperonyl butoxide increases the toxicity of the pyrethroid insecticide deltamethrin (Item No. 24172) to field-collected, deltamethrin-resistant strains of the bed bug C. lectularius by 5.6- to 176-fold when used at a concentration of 50 μg/μl.2 Piperonyl butoxide also increases the toxicity of the organotin insecticide cyhexatin to fourth instar larvae of susceptible strains of the cotton leafworm S. littoralis.4 It is not toxic to the freshwater invertebrates H. azteca, C. tentans, and L. variegatus (LC50s = 530, 2,740, and 3,540 μg/L, respectively) and reduces the toxicity of the organophosphate pesticides diazinon (Item No. 23769), chlorpyrifos (Item No. 21412), and azinphos-methyl.1 Formulations containing piperonyl butoxide have been used in the control of agricultural, household, and veterinary pests.
