High-purity reference materials for precise residue analysis

Overview

Chlorophenoxyacetic acid is a type of synthetic auxin, which is a class of plant hormones. It is commonly used as a herbicide to control broadleaf weeds. Due to its widespread use, it is crucial to monitor its residues in food and the environment to ensure compliance with regulatory standards.

Uses

Chlorophenoxyacetic acid is primarily employed in agriculture for weed control. It is used in cereal crops, pastures, and lawns. Its effectiveness in targeting specific plant species makes it a valuable tool for agricultural management.

Regulatory

Regulatory agencies worldwide have established maximum residue limits (MRLs) for Chlorophenoxyacetic acid in food products. These limits are designed to protect consumer health and ensure that agricultural practices do not lead to harmful levels of residues in food.

Monitoring

Monitoring the levels of Chlorophenoxyacetic acid in the environment and food products is essential. Laboratories use high-purity reference materials to accurately measure residues, ensuring compliance with regulatory standards. Regular monitoring helps in assessing the effectiveness of regulatory measures and the safety of food products.

Health Impact

Human Toxicity

Exposure to Chlorophenoxyacetic acid can pose health risks to humans. Short-term exposure may cause irritation to the skin, eyes, and respiratory system. Long-term exposure at high levels can lead to more severe health effects, including potential impacts on the liver and kidneys.

Environmental Impact

Effects on Wildlife

Chlorophenoxyacetic acid can have detrimental effects on wildlife, particularly aquatic organisms. It can contaminate water bodies through runoff from agricultural fields, affecting fish and other aquatic species. Terrestrial wildlife may also be impacted through exposure to contaminated vegetation.

Safety Measures

Proper safety measures should be taken when handling Chlorophenoxyacetic acid. This includes using personal protective equipment (PPE) such as gloves, masks, and protective clothing. Safe storage and disposal practices are also essential to minimize environmental contamination and human exposure.

Regulation

Various international and national bodies regulate the use of Chlorophenoxyacetic acid. These regulations include guidelines for safe application, permissible exposure limits, and residue limits in food products. Compliance with these regulations is mandatory for agricultural producers and food manufacturers.

Analytical Standards

High-purity reference materials are crucial for the accurate analysis of Chlorophenoxyacetic acid residues. HPC Standards GmbH provides certified reference materials that meet international quality requirements. These materials support laboratories in achieving reliable and precise analytical results, ensuring compliance with regulatory standards.
