Ivermectin aglycone is a semi-synthetic produced by the hydrolysis of the disaccharide unit of ivermectin. Ivermectin aglycone is a potent inhibitor of nematode larval development but is devoid of paralytic activity. The aglycone is used as a sensitive probe for the detection of some types of ivermectin resistance.
