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

Overview

Chlorpyrifos is an organophosphate pesticide used to control various pests including insects and worms. It inhibits the acetylcholinesterase enzyme in the nervous systems of insects. Chlorpyrifos was patented in 1966 by Dow Chemical Company and has been widely used in agricultural, residential, and commercial settings.

Uses

Chlorpyrifos has been used on crops, animals, and buildings. It is registered for use in nearly 100 countries and is applied to approximately 8.5 million crop acres annually. Common crops include cotton, corn, almonds, and fruit trees such as oranges, bananas, and apples.

Regulatory

Chlorpyrifos is regulated under various international and national laws. It has been banned in the European Union, the United Kingdom, and several other countries. In the United States, its use on food crops was banned by the EPA in 2021.

Monitoring

Monitoring of Chlorpyrifos residues is essential for ensuring compliance with regulatory limits. Analytical methods include gas chromatography and mass spectrometry for detecting and quantifying residues in food and environmental samples.

Health Impact

Chlorpyrifos exposure can lead to acute toxicity and long-term health effects. It is classified as moderately hazardous to humans by the World Health Organization. Exposure during pregnancy may harm the mental development of children.

Human Toxicity

Acute exposure can cause symptoms such as nausea, headaches, muscle spasms, and seizures. Long-term exposure is linked to neurological effects, developmental disorders, and autoimmune disorders.

Environmental Impact

Chlorpyrifos is toxic to aquatic life and bees. It can cause significant harm to freshwater organisms and has been responsible for fish kills in various rivers.

Effects on Wildlife

Chlorpyrifos is highly toxic to bees and other pollinators. Chronic exposure through residue in pollen and honey poses a significant risk to bee populations.

Safety Measures

Proper handling and application of Chlorpyrifos are essential to minimize exposure risks. Personal protective equipment (PPE) and adherence to safety guidelines are recommended for agricultural workers and pesticide applicators.

Regulation

Chlorpyrifos is subject to strict regulations in many countries. In the United States, it is regulated under laws such as the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) and the Clean Water Act (CWA).

Analytical Standards

HPC Standards GmbH provides high-purity reference materials for Chlorpyrifos, ensuring accurate and reliable residue analysis. Our products meet international quality requirements and are essential for laboratories conducting food and environmental analysis to ensure compliance with regulatory limits.
