Novaluron is a chemical with insecticide properties, an insect growth regulator, and has adverse effects on mouse sperm. For research use only, it is not sold to patients. Novaluron (0-100 μM, 90 min) inhibits the viability of mouse spermatocytes. Novaluron (10-100 μM, 90 min) significantly reduces the number of acrosome-reactive sperm, significantly reduces sperm motility, and changes PKA activity and tyrosine phosphorylation.
