Furathiocarb is a carbamate pro-insecticide and a contact allergen. Furathiocarb is commonly used in studies related to contact allergy. Furathiocarb induces significant proliferation of MHC II-positive B cells in auricular lymph node cells and induces the production of Th1 cytokines (such as IL-2, TNF-gamma and IFN-gamma). However, Furathiocarb does not induce respiratory allergy in mice. After absorption through the abdominal skin of isolated rats, Furathiocarb is completely metabolized into carbofuran, and its permeation amount increases with time and dosage. The skin permeation rates of both emulsifiable concentrate (EC) and wettable powder (WP) formulations of Furathiocarb are higher than that of Furathiocarb itself, with no significant difference between the two formulations[1][2].
