Broflanilide is a complex, polycyclic, organohalogen insecticide which provides a novel mode of action (MoA).

Contents

Mode of action

Upon its discovery by Mitsui Chemicals, Insecticide Resistance Action Committee (IRAC) created the new MoA Group 30 for Broflanilide. [1] [2] [3] [4] Broflanilide is a meta-diamide GABA-gated Cl− channel allosteric modulator. [1] [2] [3] [4] This - along with isoxazolines providing the same MoA, so far only fluxametamide - constitute the new MoA Group 30 in the IRAC classification scheme. [3]

Advantages

Environmental Hazards

The EPA has stated that Broflanilide is "Likely to be Carcinogenic to Humans". [5]

Broflanilide meets the EPA Working Definition of PFAS. Note that "EPA considers any level of PFAS to be potentially toxicologically significant". [6]

Products

Products were registered in the United States in January, 2021, [7] and in Canada. [1] It is being sold under the brand names Cimegra (BASF) [8] and Teraxxa (BASF, the seed treatment form). [9]
