Carbaryl 85% WP

Group

Synthetic Pyrethroids Insecticide/Miticide

Type

WP (Weatbale Powder)

Function

GENEVIN 85 WP is used as an insecticide on corn, soybean, cotton, fruit, nut, and vegetable crops, as well as in home yards and gardens. 

Mode of Action

GENEVIN 85 WP is a contact and stomach insecticide, cholinesterase inhibition, and reduced levels of this enzyme in the blood cause neurological effects.  These effects appear to be reversible upon discontinuation of exposure.  Headaches, memory loss, muscle weakness and cramps, and anorexia are caused by prolonged low-level exposure to carbaryl resulting from cholinesterase inhibition. carbaryl has been observed to cause cholinesterase inhibition (which impairs central nervous system (CNS) function), resulting in nausea, vomiting, bronchoconstriction, blurred vision, convulsions, coma, and respiratory failure. (1,3,4) Acute carbaryl exposure in humans may also cause eye and skin irritation.

How to work

Carbamate insecticides are slowly reversible inhibitors of the enzyme acetylcholinesterase. They resemble acetylcholine, but the carbamoylated enzyme undergoes the final hydrolysis step very slowly (minutes) compared with the acetylated enzyme generated by acetylcholine (microseconds). They interfere with the cholinergic nervous system and cause death because the effects of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine cannot be terminated by carbamoylated acetylcholinesterase.

Antidotes

Atropine Is recommended for the treatment of carbaryl poisoning, starting with 0.5-0.2 mg intravenously (IV) repeated every 15 minutes until stympoms (Specially pulmonary) resolve.
