Spinosad, also known as Spinosad, is a macrolide non-polluted high-efficiency biological insecticide extracted from the fermentation broth of Saccharopolyspora spinosa. Its chemical formula is C42H71NO9. The parent strain that produces spinosyn, Saccharopolyspora spinosa Metrz & Yao (Saccharopolyspora spinosa Metrz & Yao) was originally isolated from an abandoned winery in the Caribbean. Researchers from Dow AgroSciences (now Dow Agricultural Sciences) found that the bacterium can produce compounds with very high insecticidal activity. The practical product is a mixture of spinosyn A and spinosyn D, so it is called spinosad.
It has rapid contact and stomach poisoning effects on pests, and has a strong penetration effect on leaves, which can kill pests under the epidermis. It has a longer residual effect and has a certain egg-killing effect on some pests. No systemic effect. It can effectively control Lepidoptera, Diptera and Thysanoptera pests, and it can also control certain leaf-feeding pests in Coleoptera and Orthoptera effectively, and it can prevent and control piercing-sucking pests and mites. The effect is poor. It is relatively safe to predatory natural enemy insects. Due to the unique insecticidal mechanism, there are no reports of cross-resistance with other insecticides. It is safe and harmless to plants. Suitable for use on vegetables, fruit trees, gardening and agricultural crops. The insecticidal effect is less affected by rain.
