 Use of Temephos-d12


Temephos-d12 is the deuterium labeled Temephos[1]. Temefos is an organophosphate larvicide, used to treat water infested with disease-carrying insects including mosquitoes, midges, and black fly larvae. Temefos affects the central nervous system through inhibition of cholinesterase, results in death before reaching the adult stage[2][3].
