Azadirachtin (Standard)

Azadirachtin (Standard) is the analytical standard of Azadirachtin. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Azadirachtin, one of the most promising botanical insecticides, is widely used for pest control. Azadirachtin induces apoptosis in insect cell lines, including Sf9, SL-1 and BTI-Tn-5B1-4[1].
