| Targets |
Clofentezine targets mite growth and development. It acts as a growth inhibitor, primarily affecting the egg stage (ovicide). It also has some activity on early motile stages. Its mechanism of action involves the inhibition of chitin synthesis, as it is lethal to wild-type, but not chitin synthase 1 (chs1) mutant, mites.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
In vitro, Clofentezine is a growth inhibitor that is highly lethal to mites. Its activity can be assessed in bioassays using mite eggs and larvae. The compound's effects on mite development and survival are measured.
|
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, Clofentezine is used in agriculture for the residual control of mites. It is effective against various plant-feeding mite species, including those of the genera Panonychus and Tetranychus. It provides long-lasting control of mite populations.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
Clofentezine is evaluated in cell-free assays to measure its effects on chitin synthesis. However, specific enzymatic assays are not well-documented. Its activity is primarily assessed in whole-organism bioassays using mites.
|
| Cell Assay |
Clofentezine is assessed in cell-based assays using mite cell lines or tissues. However, specific cell-based assay protocols are not extensively documented. Its activity is primarily assessed in whole-organism bioassays.
|
| Animal Protocol |
Clofentezine is applied to crops in agricultural settings to control mite populations. It is used on a wide range of crops, including apples, pears, stone fruit, nuts, ornamentals, and almonds. Efficacy is assessed by measuring mite population reduction and crop damage.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Clofentezine has a molecular weight of 303.15 and a molecular formula of C14H8Cl2N4. It has a CAS number of 74115-24-5. The compound is a solid. It should be stored under recommended conditions.

| Additional Infomation |
Clofentezine is a tetrazine compound with the structure 1,2,4,5-tetrazine, in which two hydrogen atoms are substituted with o-chlorophenyl groups. It can be used as a mite growth regulator and a tetrazine acaricide. It is an organochlorine acaricide belonging to the monochlorobenzene and tetrazine classes. It is derived from the hydride of 1,2,4,5-tetrazine. Clofentezine is an acaricide used for residual mite control. It primarily functions as an ovicidal agent, but also has some activity against mites in their early active stages. It is widely used on various crops, such as apples, pears, stone fruits, nuts, ornamental plants, and almonds. In studies on rats and dogs, the main toxicological effects observed were hepatotoxicity and thyroid changes, including follicular hyperplasia. The toxic risk of Clofentezine to humans is not high.
Clofentezine is also known as Apollo and Ovation. It is a tetrazine-class acaricide. It is not approved for human therapeutic use. |

| Solubility (In Vitro) |

| Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 1.25 mg/mL (4.12 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 +5% Tween-80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 12.5 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 + to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution.  (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.) |

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
