Background:

Flumorph(SYP-L190) is a carboxylic acid amide (CAA) fungicide.IC50 value:Target: Fungicide agentFlumorph did not inhibit the synthesis of cell wall materials, but disturbed the polar deposition of newly synthesized cell wall materials during cystospore germination and hyphal growth. In flumorph-treated hyphae, the most characteristic change was the development of periodic swelling ("beaded" morphology) and the disruption of tip growth. Upon removing flumorph, normal tip growth and organized F-actin were observed again [1]. Flumorph had induced systemic genotoxicity in mammals as it caused DNA damage in all tested vital organs, especially in brain and spleen [2].
