甲氧丁二烯是一种类似于幼年激素的物质，当加入幼虫的饮食中时，对黑腹果蝇的毒性与培养密度成反比。由于许多不同的野生型菌株表现出这种密度依赖性毒性，因此这种效应似乎与基因型无关。实验表明，通过喂食幼虫，可能是通过唾液或粪便中的酶来降解饮食中添加的甲基戊二烯。这些结果表明，在实验室评估甲基丁二烯的毒性时，以及考虑通过将甲基丁二烯掺入牲畜粪便来控制双翅类稳定害虫时，必须将昆虫密度作为一个变量加以考虑。
Toxicity of methoprene, a juvenile hormone analog, toDrosophila melanogaster(Meigen) was inversely proportional to culture density when incorporated into the larva diet. Since many different wild-type strains showed this density-dependent toxicity, the effect appears to be independent of genotype. Experiments suggest that diet-incorporated methoprene is degraded by feeding larvae, possibly by an enzyme in the saliva or frass. These results indicate that insect density must be considered as a variable when estimating the toxicity of methoprene in the laboratory as well as when considering control of dipteran stable pests by incorporation of methoprene into livestock dung.
