Thiamethoxam

Thiamethoxam (CAS 153719-23-4), also known as CGA 293343, is a second-generation neonicotinoid insecticide. It belongs to the thianicotinyl subclass and acts as a potent agonist on the nicotinic acetylcholine receptors of insects, leading to nervous system overstimulation and death.

Widely used in agriculture for the control of a broad spectrum of sucking and chewing insect pests, thiamethoxam is valued for its systemic activity and long residual effect. It serves as a critical analytical marker for the quality control, residue analysis, and regulatory compliance of thiamethoxam-based insecticide formulations. In analytical chemistry and environmental testing, high-purity thiamethoxam is an essential reference standard for HPLC method development, validation, and accurate quantification in agrochemical products, crops, soil, and water samples.

Planta Analytica provides high-purity thiamethoxam as an analytical reference standard to support precise analysis, method validation, and regulatory compliance in laboratories worldwide.
