Classification of Insecticides

  • Chapter
Toxicology of Insecticides

Abstract

The development of new insecticides in the past three decades has been so rapid that no single book can adequately cover all the insecticidal derivatives without the risk of being outdated as soon as it is published. It is not, therefore, the purpose of this chapter to describe all the details of insecticidal compounds. Rather, the intention is to classify these chemicals according to the chemical properties which make them insecticidal. Other descriptions are added when it is felt that such explanation would assist the reader in understanding the historic, economic, or chemical importance of the compounds.
