Further Information

Xylem-mobile. Soil-systemic when added to root zone; translaminar when sprayed. According to Adams et al. (2016), evidence does not support phloem mobility. ECOTOX includes a record of acute oral LD50 for honey bee larvae as 0.119 µg/larva/day over an 8 day period. Oral acute value for adult bees of >4 µg/bee shown was conducted with chlorantraniliprole dissolved in acetone; formulations showed oral LD50 >100 µg/bee.
