Metabolism of the phototoxin α-terthienyl in Culex tarsalis larvae: Involvement of the polysubstrate monooxygenase system

Metabolism of the plant-derived phototoxic insecticide, α-terthienyl (α-T), was examined in larvae of the mosquito Culex tarsalis Coquillett (Diptera: Culicidae). Results indicated that metabolism of [ 3H]α-T occurred and that the resulting hydrophilic metabolites were the principal products excrete...
