Roles Classification
Biological Roles:
carbamate insecticide  Derivatives of carbamic acid with insecticidal properties of general formula ROC(=O)NR1R2, where ROH is an alcohol, oxime, or phenol and R1 is hydrogen or methyl. Like organophosphate insecticides, they are cholinesterase inhibitors, but carbamate insecticides differ in action from the organophosphates in that the inhibitory effect on cholinesterase is generally brief.
EC 3.1.1.8 (cholinesterase) inhibitor  An EC 3.1.1.* (carboxylic ester hydrolase) inhibitor that interferes with the action of cholinesterase (EC 3.1.1.8).
EC 3.1.1.7 (acetylcholinesterase) inhibitor  An EC 3.1.1.* (carboxylic ester hydrolase) inhibitor that interferes with the action of enzyme acetylcholinesterase (EC 3.1.1.7), which helps breaking down of acetylcholine into choline and acetic acid.
Applications:
agrochemical  An agrochemical is a substance that is used in agriculture or horticulture.
carbamate insecticide  Derivatives of carbamic acid with insecticidal properties of general formula ROC(=O)NR1R2, where ROH is an alcohol, oxime, or phenol and R1 is hydrogen or methyl. Like organophosphate insecticides, they are cholinesterase inhibitors, but carbamate insecticides differ in action from the organophosphates in that the inhibitory effect on cholinesterase is generally brief.
nematicide  A substance used to destroy pests of the phylum Nematoda (roundworms).
avicide  A substance used to destroy bird pests (class Aves).
acaricide  A substance used to destroy pests of the subclass Acari (mites and ticks).
