Mass spectrum of diazinon

Description

A liquid Insecticide widely used to control fire ants, Silverfish, fleas, ticks, flies, moths, termites, and cockroaches. Diazinon was introduced in 1952. It is an organophosphate type insecticide that works as a cholinesterase inhibitor. Diazinon is used for homes, gardens and pets, but it has harmful effects on birds, bees, and fish.
