(ZZ/ZE)-7,11-Hexadecadienyl acetate (1:1)（Cat No.:H000044） is a pheromonal compound used primarily in the agricultural sector to manage pest populations. This chemical blend consists of equal parts of the ZZ and ZE isomers of 7,11-hexadecadienyl acetate, a compound that mimics the sex pheromones of certain moth species. By releasing this synthetic pheromone into the environment, it disrupts the mating behavior of pests, reducing reproduction rates effectively. This method of pest control, known as mating disruption, is environmentally friendly compared to traditional insecticides, targeting specific pests without harming beneficial insects or the broader ecosystem.
