Lufenuron CAS:103055-07-8 Manufacturer Supplier

Lufenuron is an insect development inhibitor of the benzoylphenyl urea class. It demonstrates activity against fleas that have fed on treated cats and dogs and become exposed to lufenuron in the host’s blood. Lufenuron also has activity by virtue of its presence in adult flea feces, leading to its ingestion by flea larvae. Both activities result in the production of eggs that are unable to hatch, causing significant reductions in flea larvae populations. The lipophilicity of lufenuron leads to its deposition in adipose tissues of animals from where it is slowly released into the bloodstream.
