Overview

Azinphos-ethyl is a broad-spectrum organophosphate insecticide known for its high toxicity to mammals and extensive use in agricultural settings. It is chemically identified as O,O-Diethyl S-[(4-oxo-1,2,3-benzotriazin-3(4H)-yl)methyl] phosphorodithioate.

Uses

Azinphos-ethyl is primarily used in agriculture to control a wide range of insect pests. Its efficacy in pest control has made it a common choice for protecting crops.

Regulatory

Azinphos-ethyl is classified as a highly hazardous substance by the World Health Organization (WHO) and is listed under the U.S. Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act as an extremely hazardous substance. Facilities handling this compound must adhere to stringent reporting and safety requirements.

Monitoring

Regular monitoring of azinphos-ethyl in environmental and food samples is crucial to ensure compliance with regulatory limits and to safeguard public health.

Health Impact

Azinphos-ethyl is highly toxic to humans. Exposure can occur through ingestion, inhalation, or skin contact, leading to severe health effects.

Human Toxicity

The median lethal dose (LD50) for azinphos-ethyl is 17.5 mg/kg in rats, indicating its high toxicity. Symptoms of poisoning may include headache, dizziness, nausea, and in severe cases, respiratory failure.

Environmental Impact

Azinphos-ethyl poses significant risks to wildlife and aquatic organisms due to its high toxicity and persistence in the environment.

Effects on Wildlife

Exposure to azinphos-ethyl can be detrimental to non-target species, including birds, fish, and beneficial insects, leading to disruptions in local ecosystems.

Safety Measures

Proper handling and storage of azinphos-ethyl are critical to minimize exposure risks. Personal protective equipment (PPE) should be used when handling the compound, and spill response protocols must be in place.
