Etofenprox

Etofenprox is an orally active non-ester pyrethroid insecticide. Etofenprox induces toxicity against many pest insects, including Diptera rather than mammalian and fish. Etofenprox has a liver tumor-promoting activity in rats accompanied with microsomal ROS production increase. Etofenprox can be used in agricultural pest control and malaria research[1][2].
