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

Overview

Dioxathion, systematically known as p-dioxane-2,3-diyl ethyl phosphorodithioate, is an organophosphate pesticide. It is utilized primarily as an insecticide on livestock and as an acaricide on various fruits and nuts.

Our high-purity reference materials for Dioxathion are essential for laboratories conducting food and environmental analysis to ensure compliance with regulatory limits.

Uses

Under the trade name Delnav, Dioxathion is used to control insects and mites on apples, pears, quince, grapes, and walnuts. It is also used in the control of ticks, horn flies, lice, and sheep keds in various livestock, either as a spray or dip.

Under the trade name Deltic, it is a restricted-use pesticide for external control of fleas, ticks, and mites in kennels, dog houses, yards, and other recreational areas.

Regulatory

Dioxathion is classified as an Extremely Hazardous Substance under Section 302 of the U.S. Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act. It is no longer allowed to be sold in the United States but continues to be used in some other countries.

Monitoring

Regular monitoring of Dioxathion levels in food and environmental samples is crucial to ensure compliance with safety regulations. Our reference materials assist laboratories in achieving accurate and reliable results.

Health Impact

Human Toxicity

Dioxathion is known to inhibit the enzyme cholinesterase in humans. Long-term exposure may result in nerve damage, poor motor coordination, and personality changes such as anxiety, depression, or irritability. Short-term effects include eye irritation, pupil constriction, blurred vision, abdominal cramps, labored breathing, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, muscle cramps, and excess salivation.

Persons exposed to Dioxathion should have their plasma and red blood cell cholinesterase levels regularly assessed.

Environmental Impact

Effects on Wildlife

Dioxathion can have detrimental effects on wildlife, particularly on insects and mites. Its use in agricultural and livestock settings necessitates careful management to prevent unintended exposure to non-target species.

Safety Measures

Dioxathion must be stored away from alkalis, iron, tin, and strong acids. Protective clothing and eyewear should be used to avoid contact. In case of poisoning, a physician may administer atropine sulfate or pralidoxime for severe cases.

Analytical Standards

Our Dioxathion reference materials are tested according to international quality requirements and meet the highest industrial standards. These materials are essential for laboratories conducting food and environmental analysis to ensure compliance with regulatory limits.
