U-Captan

DESCRIPTION
Captan 50% WP is a fungicide of micronized particle size for use in water as a spray for the control of certain fungus diseases of fruit, vegetable seeds, and ornamental crops. It gives excellent protection against a wide variety of fungal infections in crops, both at the seeding stage and in mature plants. Therefore, it serves both as a seed-dresser and a foliar spray to control seed-borne diseases, soil-inhibiting fungi, and foliar/fruit diseases.

Mode of Action
Captan 50% WP is a broad-spectrum preventative & curative fungicide that works by disrupting the metabolic processes of fungal cells, leading to their death. It inhibits the activity of chitin synthase, which is responsible for the production of chitin, a major component of fungal cell walls. This leads to the weakening and eventual destruction of the cell wall, causing the death of the fungal cell.
