Biochem/physiol Actions

Chlorantraniliprole activates the RyRs in insects thereby affecting calcium homeostasis by unregulated release of internal calcium in the cell, leading to feeding cessation, muscle paralysis, lethargy, and ultimately death of the insect.

General description

Chlorantraniliprole is a novel anthranilic diamide insecticide belonging to the class of selective ryanodine receptor agonists. It is a selective and potent activator of insect ryanodine receptors (RyRs) that are critical for muscle contraction. It is very efficient for controlling lepidopteran insect pests, as well as some species in the orders Diptera, Hemiptera, and Coleoptera.
