Triprene was an insecticide that is not in use. It was an insect growth regulator introduced by Zoecon Corporation (now Sandoz AG) under the "Altorick" trademark,[3] registered 1974 and not renewed, expiring in 1980.[4] The EPA records no registration, now or past.[5]
Triprene is nontoxic to mammals, non-carcinogenic, not a human endocrine disruptor, and not neurotoxic. To fish, it may be of moderate toxicity.[6]
Triprene is a juvenile hormone mimic.[7] It disrupts insects' development by endocrine disruption, causing incomplete pupation and sterile adult insects.
