Characters: light-yellow solid, melting, point is 88-90°C,it can have reactions with chlorethanol and chloracetate,can dissolve in alcohol,acetone and other organic solvent and appears amber.

Uses:sulfluramid is a new kind of organo-fluorine pesticide and has good effects.It is mainly used to prevent ant,cockroach and other reptile insects.Nanjing  Military Medicine Research Institute and Nanjing University have carried out the following toxicity test:

1,experimental insects:small adult cockroach of Germany;

2,test procedure:prepare sulfluramid as the concentrations of  2%, 1%, 0.5%, 0.25%and 0.125% with acetone.Take the cockroach with a test tube, anesthetize them lightly with diethyl ether, list them with upper belly, use  10µ I sample  injector  to  absorb  2µ  I medical  liquid  and  drip them  on the belly between the second pair of  feet and the third pair of  cockroach . Repeat  this  from low  concentration to high  concentration  and  take  acetone  drop as the contrast ;

3,test  conclusion is shown as the follows:

    sulfuramid  to Germany  cockroach:      24hLD₅₀=10.8X10^-3µ g/cockroach,

    48 hLD₅₀= 9.7X10^-3 µ g/cockroach,       72hLD₅₀=4.0 X10^-3µ g/cockroach,

    96hLD₅₀= 1.3 X10^-3 µ g/cockroach,

Effect of Sulfluramid to Ger many Cockroach with DIfferent Dosage 

We can leaun that sulfluramid is a kind of chronic stomach  poisonous  pesticide.
