Milbemycin A4
Milbemycin A4 is a macrocyclic lactone with a spiroketal group, produced by Streptomyces hygroscopicus subsp. aureolacrimosus. It functions as a potent nematocide and insecticide by potentiating glutamate and GABA-gated chloride channels. This mechanism supports its use in parasitology and neuroscience research, applicable in both in vitro and in vivo experimental models.
