High-purity reference materials for accurate and reliable residue analysis of Azoxystrobin.

Overview

Azoxystrobin is a broad-spectrum systemic fungicide widely used in agriculture to protect crops from fungal diseases. It was first marketed in 1996 under the brand name Amistar and has since been registered in numerous countries for use on various crops.

Azoxystrobin inhibits mitochondrial respiration by blocking electron transport, preventing ATP production. It is available only in formulated products, aiding its use in water-based sprays.

Uses

Azoxystrobin is used in agriculture and horticulture to control a wide range of fungal diseases such as leaf spot, rusts, powdery mildew, downy mildew, net blotch, and blight. It is registered for use on important crops including wheat, barley, oats, rye, soya, cotton, rice, strawberry, peas, beans, and onions.

It is also used in home and garden settings, particularly for controlling fungal diseases of turf on golf courses and lawns.

Regulatory

In the United States, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulates azoxystrobin under the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) and the Food Quality Protection Act (FQPA). In the European Union, a two-tiered approach is used for approval and authorization.

All pesticides, including azoxystrobin, must be registered with appropriate authorities in the country of use. Labels provide legally binding directions for effective product performance while minimizing risks to human health and the environment.

Monitoring

Monitoring programs ensure that pesticide residues in food are below the limits set by regulatory authorities such as the European Food Safety Authority. The estimated annual use of azoxystrobin in US agriculture shows an increasing trend, reaching significant levels in recent years.

Health Impact

Azoxystrobin has low toxicity to mammals with an LD50 of over 5000 mg/kg (rats, oral). However, it can cause skin and eye irritation. The acceptable daily intake for azoxystrobin is 0-0.2 mg/kg bodyweight per day as determined by the World Health Organization (WHO) and Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO).

Environmental Impact

Azoxystrobin has a low potential for bioconcentration and poses moderate risks to fish, earthworms, and bees but high risks to aquatic crustaceans. Its main degradation product is also potentially harmful to aquatic environments.

Care must be taken to avoid runoff into water bodies to mitigate environmental risks.

Safety Measures

Precautionary statements for azoxystrobin include avoiding inhalation and contact with skin and eyes. First aid information is provided on product labels. Proper handling and application techniques are essential to ensure safety.
