Mode of action of malathion 50% EC :

Detailed breakdown of the mode of action of MAL50 Malathion 50% EC:

• Malathion enters the insect's body through contact, ingestion, or inhalation.
• Once inside the insect's body, enzymes convert malathion to its more toxic form, malaoxon. This process is called bioactivation.
• Malaoxon binds to an enzyme called acetylcholinesterase (AChE), which is found in nerve cells. AChE normally breaks down acetylcholine (ACh), a neurotransmitter that transmits signals between nerve cells.
• When malaoxon binds to AChE, it prevents the enzyme from breaking down ACh. This causes ACh to build up in the synapses, the junctions between nerve cells.
• The excess ACh over stimulates the insect's nervous system, leading to uncontrolled muscle contractions, tremors, paralysis, and eventually death.
