Derris Extract is a standardized botanical preparation obtained from the roots of Derris elliptica and Derris malaccensis, tropical climbing shrubs native to Southeast Asia. It is valued for its high content of rotenone, a naturally occurring isoflavonoid compound with potent insecticidal properties. The extract is typically standardized to ≥98% rotenone (HPLC), making it a reliable active ingredient for agricultural and industrial applications.

With growing demand for bio-based crop protection, Derris Extract serves as a key component in organic insecticides, fish management, and veterinary parasiticides. Its rapid biodegradation and low environmental persistence make it a preferred choice for integrated pest management programs.
