Aldicarb

Aldicarb is a carbamate pesticide. It is an acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitor with an IC50 value of 5 µM. Aldicarb induces mortality in the two-spotted spider mite (T. urticae) with an LC50 value of 21 ppm in a slide-dip assay and in the nematode (M. exigua) with an LC50 value of 24 µg/l. It has been used to study CREB and acetylcholine signaling. Formulations containing aldicarb have been used as pesticides in agriculture.Formal Name: O-[(methylamino)carbonyl]oxime-2-methyl-2-(methylthio)-propanal. CAS Number: 116-06-3.
