Description

(-)-Carvone is an insect neurotoxin and a irreversible acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitor. (-)-Carvone can be used as a bird repellent, inhibits larval growth, decreases pupatation rate, and increases mortality of larvae.

(-)-Carvone (3.04 mM; 30 min) inactivates eel AChE with Ki value of 2.19 mM[1].

(-)-Carvone (5% in absolute ethanol v/v, 20 渭L; application to the thoraces ventral surfaces) inhibits AChE such as horse serum cholinesterase, house fly head cholinesterases, and head and thorax cholinesterases from the Madagascar roach in vitro[1].
(-)-Carvone (0.05%-0.1% w/v; p.o.; 7 d) inhibits E. insulana larvae growth, decreases weight of larvae[2].
