High-Purity Reference Materials for Accurate Residue Analysis
Overview
Ethoprophos, also known as O-Ethyl S,S-dipropyl phosphorodithioate, is an organophosphate ester used primarily as an insecticide and nematicide. It is a clear yellow to colourless liquid with a characteristic mercaptan-like odour.
Our high-purity reference materials for Ethoprophos ensure accurate and reliable residue analysis, adhering to international quality requirements and the highest industrial standards.
Uses
Ethoprophos is widely used in agriculture to control soil insects such as wireworms and nematodes. It is applied to various crops, including potatoes, bananas, sugarcane, ornamental plants, and tobacco.
Regulatory
Ethoprophos is regulated under various international guidelines to ensure safe usage and environmental protection. Compliance with these regulations is essential for laboratories conducting food and environmental analysis.
Monitoring
Regular monitoring of Ethoprophos residues in food and the environment is crucial for ensuring compliance with regulatory limits. Our reference materials support accurate monitoring and reporting.
Health Impact
Human Toxicity
Ethoprophos primarily inhibits acetylcholinesterase, leading to the accumulation of acetylcholine in the nervous system. Symptoms of exposure include vomiting, nausea, diarrhea, miosis, abdominal cramps, dyspnoea, muscular weakness, bronchial hypersecretion, anxiety, confusion, and convulsions. It is also considered likely carcinogenic due to tumor occurrences in rats.
Environmental Impact
Effects on Wildlife
Ethoprophos is extremely toxic to bees and birds and highly toxic to aquatic species. It poses a low risk to mammals exposed to contaminated water but can affect reproduction and survival rates in exposed animals.
Safety Measures
Handling Ethoprophos requires strict safety measures, including the use of personal protective equipment (PPE) and adherence to precautionary statements such as P260, P261, P262, P264, P270, P271, P272, P273, P280, P284, P301+P310, P302+P350, P302+P352, P304+P340, P310, P320, P321, P322, P330, P333+P313, P361, P363, P391, P403+P233, P405, and P501.
Regulation
Ethoprophos is subject to strict regulatory controls to minimize its environmental and health impacts. Laboratories must ensure compliance with these regulations when conducting residue analysis.
Analytical Standards
Our high-purity reference materials for Ethoprophos are essential for laboratories conducting accurate and reliable residue analysis. These materials support compliance with international quality requirements and the highest industrial standards.
