Δ²-Avermectin B₁ₐ (Compound 3) is an antiparasitic agent targeting glutamate-gated chloride channels (GluCls) in the neuromuscular system of invertebrates. Δ²-Avermectin B₁ₐ enhances chloride ion influx, leading to hyperpolarization of the neuromuscular cell membrane, inhibition of neural signal transmission, and ultimately paralysis and death of parasites. Δ²-Avermectin B₁ₐ is promising for research of agricultural pests.

Providing storage is as stated on the product vial and the vial is kept tightly sealed, the product can be stored for up to 24 months.
Wherever possible, you should prepare and use solutions on the same day. However, if you need to make up stock solutions in advance, we recommend that you store the solution as aliquots in tightly sealed vials at -20°C. Generally, these will be useable for up to one month. Before use, and prior to opening the vial we recommend that you allow your product to equilibrate to room temperature for at least 1 hour.
