Brodifacoum is a highly lethal 4-hydroxycoumarin vitamin K antagonist anticoagulant poison. It is widely used as a rodenticide and for controlling larger pests such as possums. Our high-purity reference materials for Brodifacoum are essential for accurate residue analysis in food and environmental samples.

Overview

Brodifacoum is a potent anticoagulant with a long half-life in the body, requiring prolonged treatment with vitamin K for poisonings. It is commonly used as a rodenticide and has a high risk of secondary poisoning for mammals and birds.

Uses

Brodifacoum is primarily used as a rodenticide to control rats and mice. It is also used to control larger pests such as possums.

Regulatory

Brodifacoum is regulated due to its high toxicity and potential for secondary poisoning. Its outdoor use is often restricted or banned, except for specific applications like rodent eradication on islands.

Monitoring

Monitoring of Brodifacoum residues is crucial in food and environmental samples to ensure compliance with regulatory limits. Our reference materials provide reliable standards for accurate analysis.

Health Impact

Human Toxicity

Brodifacoum poisoning in humans can cause severe coagulopathy and bleeding. Treatment involves prolonged administration of vitamin K and frequent monitoring of coagulation parameters.

Environmental Impact

Effects on Wildlife

Brodifacoum is highly toxic to mammals, birds, and fish. It poses a significant risk of secondary poisoning, making it essential to use it responsibly and monitor its environmental impact.

Safety Measures

Proper handling and usage guidelines must be followed to prevent accidental poisoning. In case of exposure, immediate medical attention and administration of vitamin K are required.

Regulation

Regulatory agencies have set strict guidelines for the use of Brodifacoum to minimize its environmental and health risks. Compliance with these regulations is mandatory for safe usage.

Analytical Standards

Our high-purity reference materials for Brodifacoum are tested according to international quality requirements and meet the highest industrial standards. They are essential for laboratories conducting food and environmental analysis to ensure compliance with regulatory limits.
