Description
Curator's Comment: Description was created based on several sources, including https://www.mitsuichemicals.com/dinotefuran.htm

Dinotefuran is a new furanicotinyl insecticide which represents the third generation of neonicotinoid group. Dinotefuran, which was developed by Mitsui Chemicals, Inc., was registered in Japan April 24, 2002 and the registration has been submitted to the Environment Protection Agency (EPA) in the USA. Dinotefuran was granted Organophosphorus Alternative and Reduced Risk Status by the EPA. Dinotefuran exhibits a insecticidal activity against Hemiptera, Lepidoptera, Coleoptera, Diptera, Dictyoptera and Thysanoptera. Furthermore, it has very low phytotoxicity so that it can be utilized for many kinds of crops. Dinotefuran is water-soluble and has excellent systemic and translaminar action in many plants. This property enables dinotefuran to be applied using various methods and various formulations. The binding assay using insect nAChRs and the electrophysiological study showed that dinotefuran acted on nAChRs as an agonist. However, in the binding study, the affinity of dinotefuran against the binding site of other neonicotinoids was very low, suggesting that this compound acts on a different site than other neonicotinoids.

CNS Activity

Curator's Comment: Insecticide dinotefuran exerts nerve-blocking activity in American cockroach, Periplaneta americana.

Sample Use Guides

A novel spot-on formulation combining permethrin, pyriproxifen and dinotefuran (Vectra 3D™ spot-on solution for dogs) was evaluated in adult Beagle dogs in a study to determine adulticidal efficacy, egg laying inhibition and viability of Ctenocephalides felis felis eggs (development and emergence of fleas from the collected eggs). Prior to treatment sixteen dogs were checked for their ability to keep fleas 24 hours after infestation and were allocated to treatment groups: 8 dogs served as untreated controls, and 8 dogs were treated once with the tested formulation. The spot on was administered respecting the laboratory recommendations at a dosage of 65-126 mg/kg of permethrin; 8.9-17.4 mg/kg of dinotefuran and 0.8-1.5mg/kg of pyriproxyfen.
Route of Administration: Topical
The present study demonstrated the effects of dinotefuran (active ingredient of the acaricide Protetor Pet®) on the ovary and midgut cells of semi engorged R. sanguineus females exposed to different concentrations of this chemical. For this, 120 semi-engorged females were divided into four treatment groups with 30 individuals each: group I or control (distilled water), group II (5000ppm), groups III (6250ppm) and group IV (8334ppm of dinotefuran).
