Chlorantraniliprole

Chlorantraniliprole (Rynaxpyr) is an insecticide of the ryanoid class. Chlorantraniliprole is being developed world-wide by DuPont belonging to a new class of selective insecticides  featuring a novel mode of action to control a range of pests belonging to the order Lepidoptera and some other Coleoptera, Diptera and Isoptera species.

Chlorantraniliprole activates Ryanodine receptor via stimulation of the release of calcium stores from the Sarcoplasmic reticulum of muscle cells ( i.e. for chewing insect pest) causing impaired regulation, paralysis and ultimately death of sensitive species. The differential selectivity Chlorantraniliprole had towards insect rynodine receptors explained the outstanding profile of low mammalian toxicity. Chlorantraniliprole is active on chewing pest insects primarily by ingestion and secondarily by contact.
