What is Moxidectin CAS 113507-06-5?
Moxidectin CAS 113507-06-5 is a second-generation semi-synthetic macrocyclic lactone endectocide belonging to the milbemycin class. It acts by interfering with GABA-mediated neuromuscular transmission in parasites, leading to flaccid paralysis and death. It is widely used in veterinary medicine for the control of internal and external parasites across livestock, companion animals, and agricultural pest research.
