High-purity reference materials for accurate residue analysis in food and environmental samples.
Overview
Dichlorprop, also known as 2,4-DP, is a chlorophenoxy herbicide used to control annual and perennial broadleaf weeds. It is structurally similar to 2,4-D and functions by increasing cell wall plasticity and biosynthesis of proteins, leading to abnormal cell growth.
Uses
Dichlorprop is a component of many common weedkillers and is used extensively in agricultural settings. Approximately 4 million pounds are used annually in the United States.
Regulatory
The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) oversees the use of dichlorprop, ensuring it meets safety and efficacy standards. The R-isomer, known as dichlorprop-p, is the active form used in pesticides.
Monitoring
Regular monitoring of dichlorprop residues in food and environmental samples is essential for compliance with regulatory limits. HPC Standards GmbH provides high-purity reference materials for accurate and reliable analysis.
Health Impact
Dichlorprop has a slight acute oral toxicity with an LD50 of 537 mg/kg in rats. It is a severe eye irritant and has been classified as possibly carcinogenic to humans by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC).
Environmental Impact
Dichlorprop can affect non-target plant species and wildlife. It is crucial to use this herbicide according to regulatory guidelines to minimize environmental impact.
Safety Measures
Appropriate safety measures include using protective equipment and following precautionary statements such as P264 (wash thoroughly after handling) and P280 (wear protective gloves/protective clothing/eye protection/face protection).
Regulation
In the United States, dichlorprop is regulated under the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA). The R-isomer is classified as “Not Likely to be Carcinogenic to Humans” by the EPA.
Analytical Standards
HPC Standards GmbH offers high-purity reference materials for dichlorprop, ensuring accurate and reliable residue analysis in compliance with international quality requirements and industrial standards.
