Solution Overview

Problem

Mites have developed resistance to existing miticides, necessitating the development of a novel miticide effective against resistant strains.

Innovation Solution

A miticide comprising specific organic compounds represented by Formulas (1) to (12) or their salts, which can be used alone or in combination with other miticides, applied through vapor diffusion or contact methods to exterminate mites such as Varroa and cattle mites.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If existing miticides such as costic acid are used to exterminate mites, then mite control is achieved initially, but mites develop resistance over time rendering the miticides ineffective

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemiticide effectivenessVSAvoidlong-term efficacy
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDuration of action of stationary object

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces a novel chemical compound with a distinct molecular structure (Formula 1) that differs from existing miticides like costic acid. By changing the chemical parameters (molecular structure, functional groups, substituents), the new compound achieves effectiveness against mites that have developed resistance to previous miticides, thereby resolving the contradiction between initial effectiveness and long-term efficacy

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

Solution Approach 2:

The patent describes a miticide composition that may combine the novel compound of Formula (1) with other miticides (Formula 2 compounds and additional active ingredients). This composite approach allows the new compound to work synergistically with existing miticides, maintaining effectiveness against resistant mite populations while potentially reducing resistance development through multi-target action

Inventive Principle:
Principle #40Composite materials
