High-purity reference materials for accurate residue analysis of Azamethiphos in food and environmental samples.

Overview

Azamethiphos is an organophosphate insecticide primarily used in veterinary applications, particularly in fish farming to control parasites like sea lice. It is also employed in various biocidal products in Europe for insect control.

Uses

Azamethiphos is used in the aquaculture industry, especially in Atlantic salmon farming, to manage parasitic infestations. Additionally, it is used in biocidal products against flies in animal housing.

Regulatory

In Europe, Azamethiphos is regulated under the Biocide Regulation 528/2012. It is approved for use in several biocidal products intended for professional use.

Monitoring

Monitoring of Azamethiphos residues is crucial for ensuring compliance with regulatory limits in food and environmental samples. High-purity reference materials are essential for accurate and reliable analysis.

Health Impact

Human Toxicity

Azamethiphos exhibits moderate acute oral toxicity, with LD50 values ranging from 834 mg/kg in rats to 1764 mg/kg in hamsters. It is an irritant to the eyes and skin, toxic if inhaled, and harmful if swallowed. It is also a potential carcinogen and can cause organ damage.

Environmental Impact

Effects on Wildlife

Azamethiphos is highly toxic to aquatic life, with an LC50 of 0.33 μg/L for Daphnia magna. It can cause significant protein alterations and tissue damage in fish, such as rainbow trout, and has detrimental effects on other species like lobster larvae.

Safety Measures

Protective equipment should be worn to prevent dermal and inhalation exposure. Washing exposed skin before contact with other surfaces is recommended to minimize risks.

Analytical Standards

Our high-purity reference materials for Azamethiphos are rigorously tested to meet international quality standards. These materials are essential for laboratories conducting residue analysis in food and environmental samples to ensure regulatory compliance.
