High-purity reference materials for accurate residue analysis in food and environmental samples.

Overview

Cyanuric acid, also known as 1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6-triol, is a chemical compound with the formula (CNOH)3. It is a white, odorless solid commonly used as a precursor or a component of bleaches, disinfectants, and herbicides.

Uses

Cyanuric acid is primarily used as a chlorine stabilizer in swimming pools, binding to free chlorine and releasing it slowly to extend the efficacy of sanitizers. It is also used as a precursor to N-chlorinated cyanurates for disinfecting water and as a crosslinking agent in the production of polyurethane resins and polyisocyanurate thermoset plastics.

Regulatory

The FDA permits certain amounts of cyanuric acid in non-protein nitrogen additives for animal feed and drinking water. Regulatory limits ensure safe levels in food and environmental samples.

Monitoring

Testing for cyanuric acid concentration is commonly done using a turbidometric test with melamine, which forms a precipitate with cyanuric acid, allowing for quantification based on turbidity. Advanced methods have also been developed for analyzing cyanuric acid in urine.

Health Impact

Human Toxicity

Cyanuric acid is classified as essentially nontoxic with an oral LD50 of 7700 mg/kg in rats. However, it can form nephrotoxic complexes with melamine, leading to kidney failure as seen in the 2007 pet food contamination and 2008 Chinese milk scandal.

Environmental Impact

Effects on Wildlife

Cyanuric acid and its derivatives can impact aquatic life due to their use in swimming pools and water disinfectants. Proper monitoring and regulation are essential to mitigate these effects.

Safety Measures

Handling cyanuric acid requires standard safety measures including the use of personal protective equipment (PPE) to avoid inhalation and skin contact. Safety data sheets (SDS) provide detailed guidelines for safe handling and emergency measures.
