Appearance:
White crystalline powder, deliquescent, soluble in water, insoluble in organic solvents.
Function:
1. the attractant mechanism: a, DMPT easily soluble in water, the rapid spread through the water, fish olfactory nerve stimulation, was found, it is the most intense olfactory nerve stimulant. b, behavioral studies have shown that fish body with a feeling (CH3) 2S-groups of chemical receptors, and (CH3) 2S-group is DMPT, DMSA characteristics of groups. 2. Molting and growth-promoting mechanism: crustaceans can synthesize their own DMPT, the current study shows that for the shrimp case, DMPT is the shelling of a new water-soluble hormone analogues, through the promotion of shelling and promote the growth of shrimp speed. DMPT fish taste receptors are effective ligands for aquatic animals, taste, smell strong nerve stimulation, thus speeding up the rate of feeding aquatic animals, aquatic animals to improve feed intake under stress.
