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

Overview

Dimefox, also known as TL-792 or T-2002, is a highly toxic organophosphate insecticide. In its pure form, it is a colorless liquid with a fishy odor. Dimefox was first produced in 1940 by the group of Gerhard Schrader in Germany. Although historically used as a pesticide, it has been deemed obsolete or discontinued for use by the World Health Organization.

Uses

Dimefox was primarily utilized as an insecticide. However, its use has significantly declined due to its high toxicity and the availability of safer alternatives. It is not commonly registered for use as a pesticide in most countries.

Regulatory

Dimefox is considered an extremely hazardous substance as defined by the United States Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act. It is banned in the UK and the US.

Monitoring

Due to its high toxicity, monitoring of Dimefox residues is crucial in environmental and food analysis. Laboratories require high-purity reference materials to ensure accurate and reliable residue analysis.

Health Impact

Human Toxicity

Dimefox is an inhibitor of acetylcholinesterase, leading to severe toxic effects. It is highly toxic if ingested, inhaled, or absorbed through the skin. The median lethal dose (LD50) is 2 mg/kg (oral, mice), 1 mg/kg (oral, rats), and 3 mg/kg (intravenous, rabbits).

Environmental Impact

Effects on Wildlife

Dimefox poses significant risks to wildlife due to its high toxicity. It can affect various non-target organisms, leading to ecological imbalances.

Safety Measure

Due to its high toxicity, stringent safety measures are required when handling Dimefox. Appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) and adherence to safety protocols are essential to minimize exposure risks.

Regulation

Dimefox is subject to strict regulatory controls due to its hazardous nature. It is banned in several countries, including the UK and the US, to protect human health and the environment.
