KEY ADVANTAGES

Preventive, protective and therapeutic action. Famoxadone provides a RELIABLE SHIELDING EFFECT, forming a film on the surface of the leaf and acting as a protective barrier preventing the penetration of the pathogen into the plant. Cymoxanil quickly penetrates inside the leaves and stem and has a prophylactic, protective and healing effect.

High efficiency at all stages of late blight development on leaves and stems. TANOS® provides protection of the surface of agricultural crops from external infection (zoospores falling on the leaves and stems); destruction of sources of contamination on the soil surface; medicinal effect in plants against latent (usually stem) infection.(//tractor-service.com)

Instant destruction of spores. Famoxadone — the contact component of TANOS® — firmly binds to the cuticle and is stored in the waxy layer of leaves. Due to this, the resistance of the drug to washing is ensured. Upon contact with the surface of a sheet treated with TANOS®, zoospores die within a few seconds.

MECHANISM OF ACTION

The two biologically active substances that make up TANOS® mutually strengthen and complement each other.

· Famoxadone — the contact component of TANOS® — firmly binds to the cuticle and is preserved in the waxy layer of the leaves. Due to this, the resistance of the drug to washing is ensured. Upon contact with the surface of a sheet treated with TANOS®, zoospores die within 6 seconds.

Famoxadone provides a RELIABLE SHIELDING EFFECT, forming a film on the surface of the leaf and acting as a protective barrier preventing the penetration of the pathogen into the plant. Due to the ability to bind to the cuticle, famoxadone is usually not washed away by rain or irrigation water after 2 hours. Under the influence of moisture, its more uniform redistribution occurs on the surface of the sheet. Later, famoxadone is able to move from the cuticle to the surface of the leaf. This unique ability of reactivation strengthens the protective action. Thus, TANOS® is practically irreplaceable in rainy weather and on irrigated areas.

· Cymoxanil — a local-systemic component of TANOS® — quickly penetrates inside the leaves and stem and has a prophylactic, protective and healing effect. Cymoxanil moves in the leaves (translaminar action), as well as in the stems from the bottom up. This compensates for the uneven distribution of the working solution on the plants during processing.

The therapeutic effect is ensured even when processed 1–2 days after infection due to a hypersensitivity reaction (cymoxanil stops the development of the disease due to the encapsulation of infected plant cells).
