High-purity reference materials for accurate residue analysis
Overview
Clofibric acid, with the chemical formula C10H11ClO3, is a biologically active metabolite of lipid-lowering drugs such as clofibrate, etofibrate, and theofibrate. It appears as a white to yellow solid and has a melting point of 118 to 123°C.
Uses
Clofibric acid is primarily used in pharmaceutical applications as a metabolite of fibrate drugs, which are used to lower lipid levels in the blood.
Regulatory
Clofibric acid is monitored under various environmental and pharmaceutical regulations due to its persistence in the environment and potential health impacts.
Monitoring
Environmental monitoring of clofibric acid is essential due to its detection in bodies of water such as Swiss lakes and the North Sea, indicating its persistence and potential environmental impact.
Health Impact
Human Toxicity
Clofibric acid is a metabolite of drugs used to treat high cholesterol and triglycerides, and its toxicity profile is closely related to these pharmaceutical applications.
Environmental Impact
Effects on Wildlife
The presence of clofibric acid in aquatic environments can have adverse effects on wildlife, particularly aquatic organisms, due to its persistence and bioaccumulation potential.
Safety Measure
Proper handling and disposal of clofibric acid and its derivatives are crucial to minimize environmental contamination and ensure safety in laboratory settings.
Regulation
Regulatory bodies have set guidelines for the permissible levels of clofibric acid in the environment and in pharmaceutical contexts to protect human health and ecosystems.
