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

Overview

EPTC (S-ethyl dipropylthiocarbamate) is a selective herbicide used primarily for the control of annual grasses and some broadleaf weeds. It is commonly applied in agricultural settings, particularly in the cultivation of crops such as corn, soybeans, and potatoes.

Uses

EPTC is utilized in pre-emergence and early post-emergence applications to prevent weed competition, thereby promoting healthy crop growth. Its effectiveness in controlling a wide range of weed species makes it a valuable tool for farmers and agricultural professionals.

Regulatory

EPTC is regulated by various international and national agencies to ensure safe use in agricultural practices. Compliance with regulatory limits is essential for maintaining food safety and environmental health.

Monitoring

Regular monitoring of EPTC residues in soil, water, and agricultural products is crucial for ensuring that residue levels remain within acceptable limits. Laboratories conducting such analyses require high-purity reference materials to achieve accurate results.

Health Impact

Human Toxicity

Exposure to EPTC can occur through inhalation, ingestion, or skin contact. While acute toxicity is generally low, prolonged or excessive exposure may lead to adverse health effects. Proper safety measures are recommended to minimize exposure risks.

Environmental Impact

Effects on Wildlife

EPTC can have detrimental effects on non-target organisms, including aquatic life and terrestrial wildlife. Monitoring and managing its use is essential to mitigate environmental impacts.

Safety Measures

To ensure safe handling and application of EPTC, users must adhere to recommended safety protocols, including the use of personal protective equipment (PPE) and proper storage practices.

Regulation

EPTC is subject to stringent regulations to control its distribution and application. These regulations are designed to protect human health and the environment from potential hazards associated with its use.

Analytical Standards

High-purity reference materials, such as those provided by HPC Standards GmbH, are essential for laboratories conducting EPTC residue analysis. These materials ensure the accuracy and reliability of analytical results, supporting regulatory compliance and environmental safety.
