Nematicide
Broad Spectrum Biological Nematicide

XILO-NEMAX® is an innovative biological nematicide based on secondary metabolites derived from the fermentation of Streptomyces spp. BB016, designed for the control of plant-parasitic nematodes. It acts primarily through direct contact and ingestion, targeting nematodes present in the soil.

Once inside the plant tissue, the metabolites produced by BB016 are mobilized translaminarly, rapidly paralyzing nematodes by inhibiting the transmission of nerve signals at their neural connections. The components of XILO-NEMAX® alter the membrane permeability of nematodes, disrupting their internal metabolism. Observable activities such as feeding and egg-laying cease shortly after exposure.

XILO-NEMAX® can be integrated into pest management programs.
