Juvenile hormone receptor Methoprene tolerant: Functions and applications
During the past 15years, after confirming Methoprene tolerant (Met) as a juvenile hormone (JH) receptor, tremendous progress has been made in understanding the function of Met in supporting JH signal transduction. Met role in JH regulation of development, including metamorphosis, reproduction, diapause, cast differentiation, behavior, im`munity, sleep ...

Concentration and Residual Efficacy of Methoprene in a Running Ditch
Altosid 10F [methoprene (isopropyl 11-methoxy-3,7,11-trimethyl dodeca-2,4-dienoate) 10%を活性炭に含有させた徐放製剤] を流れのある排水路中に投入した場合の methoprene の残留濃度を測定し, その効力発現機構について考察した. 試験は, ユスリカが生息している水路 (w, 1.4m; d, 0.2m; 流速, 15.2cm/sec) で行なった. 薬剤濃度は, 1ppm (1時間流量当たりのAI), である. 薬剤処理後, 10, 50, 150, 500m下流地点で水路の底から採取した砂泥約210g (表面積109.3cm2) 中の methoprene 残留量は, 1日目には, それぞれ, 27.5,
