High-purity reference materials for accurate residue analysis
Overview
Fenoxycarb is a carbamate insect growth regulator with the IUPAC name Ethyl [2-(4-phenoxyphenoxy)ethyl]carbamate. It is known by other names such as Varikill, Insegar, and Logic. Fenoxycarb has a chemical formula of C17H19NO4 and a molar mass of 301.34 g/mol. It is characterized by a melting point of 53.5°C.
Uses
Fenoxycarb is primarily used as an insect growth regulator. It mimics juvenile hormone, preventing immature insects from reaching maturity. This makes it effective in controlling insect populations in agricultural and environmental settings.
Regulatory
Fenoxycarb is regulated under various international guidelines to ensure its safe use in food and environmental applications. Laboratories must adhere to these regulations to ensure compliance with residue limits.
Monitoring
Monitoring the presence of Fenoxycarb in food and environmental samples is crucial for compliance with regulatory standards. High-purity reference materials are essential for accurate and reliable residue analysis.
Health Impact
Fenoxycarb has low toxicity for bees, birds, and humans but is toxic to fish. The oral LD50 for rats is greater than 16,800 milligrams per kilogram. It is non-neurotoxic and does not share the same mode of action as other carbamate insecticides.
Environmental Impact
While Fenoxycarb is effective in controlling insect populations, its toxicity to fish necessitates careful management to prevent environmental contamination. Proper application and disposal practices are essential to mitigate its environmental impact.
Safety Measure
Handling Fenoxycarb requires adherence to safety guidelines to prevent exposure. Personal protective equipment (PPE) and proper storage conditions are necessary to ensure safe use.
