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

Overview

Diafenthiuron is an organosulfur insecticide belonging to the thiourea group. It is known for its efficacy against a wide range of agricultural pests including mites, aphids, thrips, and whiteflies. Its chemical formula is C₂₃H₃₂N₂OS, and it has a molar mass of 384.58 g/mol.

Uses

Diafenthiuron is primarily used in agriculture to control pests on crops such as cotton, citrus fruits, and grapes. It functions both systemically and through contact, impairing mitochondrial function in target pests.

Regulatory

Diafenthiuron was introduced to the market in 1990 by Ciba-Geigy in Switzerland. Due to environmental concerns, it is no longer approved in Switzerland and other European Union countries. However, it continues to be used in regions where it remains legal.

Monitoring

Monitoring of Diafenthiuron residues is crucial for ensuring compliance with regulatory limits. Laboratories conducting food and environmental analysis rely on high-purity reference materials for accurate residue analysis.

Health Impact

Human Toxicity

Diafenthiuron has shown limited adverse effects on human health when used according to guidelines. Toxicology assessments indicate no significant risks from agricultural residues in food.

Environmental Impact

Effects on Wildlife

Diafenthiuron can have adverse effects on aquatic life and bees. It is highly toxic to invertebrates and can cause rapid death in aquatic organisms. Bees exposed to Diafenthiuron may experience reduced foraging activity, impaired reproduction, and increased mortality.

Safety Measures

Proper handling and application of Diafenthiuron are essential to minimize environmental and health risks. Protective gear should be worn, and guidelines for safe usage must be strictly followed.

Regulation

Diafenthiuron is subject to various regulatory frameworks depending on the region. Compliance with local regulations is essential for its lawful use and distribution.

Analytical Standards

High-purity reference materials for Diafenthiuron are essential for laboratories conducting residue analysis. These materials ensure accurate and reliable results, helping to maintain compliance with international quality requirements and industrial standards.
