PRODUCT - BIO LARVICIDES (Bt-I)

Vectobar

PRODUCT INTRODUCTION

Vectobar is a tropicalised formulation that is stable for 24 months at a temperature of 45 Degree Celsius. Larvicides are more effective and less toxic than adult mosquito sprays and the applications are unlikely to result in adversely affecting human health.

PRODUCT USE

Vectobar is a biological larvicide (Bt-I) based on a selected strain of naturally-occurring beneficial soil bacteria Bacillus thuringiensis var Israelensis (VCRC Strain B 17 Serotype 11-14) that parasitizes the Mosquito Larvae. It is formulated as 4,000 IU/mg Micro Emulsion / Liquid Formulation and used as an effective foliar spray.

MODE OF ACTION

  • Bt I is a stomach toxin. The toxins work alone or together to break down the gut wall. This leads to paralysis and eventually death for the mosquito larva.
  • Bt I strains have pBtoxis plasmid which encodes numerous Cry and Cyt toxins, including Cry4, Cry10, Cry11, Cyt1 and Cyt2.
