Flufenoxuron is a recently introduced insecticide. The compound is known to exert its insecticidal activity by inhibiting chitin synthesis in insects. However, its toxic effects on humans are unknown. A 72-year-old woman was brought to the emergency department by ambulance.
A greenhouse study was conducted to investigate the degradation kinetics of spinosad, flufenoxuron, dimethoate and imidacloprid in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) foliage and their residual toxicity on Engytatus varians (Distant) (Hemiptera: Miridae), a predator of the tomato psyllid Bactericera cockerelli

This study describes immunochemical approaches for the compound-specific detection of flufenoxuron and class-specific detection of benzoylphenylurea (BPU) insecticides. With the aim of developing a highly specific immunoassay for flufenoxuron, a hapten was synthesized by introducing a spacer arm at the
